Concern about the People and the Mother Country: The Beacons of Cardinal August Hlond from 1945–1948 The life and the activity of Primate Cardinal August Hlond (1881–1948) continuously inspires the search, analysis, and discovery of the meaning of his teachings and his mission within the Church and the society. The return of Cardinal August Hlond to Poland on July 20th1945 was expected to strengthen the nation’s spirit and religious belief in the new post-war reality. His concern about the revival of the mother country and about building state governance on the basis of moral principles and human rights can be seen in all his undertakings. He offered education and care to families and young people. The Christian upbringing of young people, the growth of Catholic youth organizations, the presence of Christian values in school curricula and in secular organizations involved in education –these were the matters he supported and fostered. He was focused on the development of various forms of spiritual life. He responded to the then current problems of religious and community life. As he pursued various measures to these ends, despite the difficulties he encountered, he believed in a mature society of well-educated citizens. Therefore, it seems reasonable to interpret the thoughts of Cardinal Hlond regarding the human being –within the period from 1945 to 1948 –as a person open to transcendence, to infinity (personal subjectivity and their spiritual life), to a person within a family (a family as a community of individuals) and within the society (the national community).

With the increasing number of Timorese Dawan who are married they are not in accordance with what is right before God today. Certainly making the servants of God must pay special attention and focus looking for various ways how to prevent and overcome the situation.    And this is also very important to be studied. Why? Because of the habits that practiced by the Timor Dawan tribe rampant until now and this has a negative impact on the generation of teenagers and youth of the Dawan Timor tribe.    And keep in mind that habits like this are also something evil in God's eyes. Therefore, as people who believe in God need to pay attention to this problem and find ways to prevent and improve this habit because this is something that is wrong and that is not pleasing before God.    With this, the author is burdened to examine this problem with qualitative method. So that if you wish through this research, the people of Timor Dawan can turn those bad habits into habits that are in accordance with Genesis 1: 27-28.    And this also needs to be applied by God's servants especially for God's servants who come from the Eastern Dawan tribe so that young people can see and apply their marriage properly and correctly before God and avoid bad associations that commit adultery before being blessed in the church.

The word "freedom" at all times was worried by progressive humanity. The notion of "freedom of conscience" is one of the specific varieties of the word. At the end of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. He was interpreted in all ways abroad and in Russia in particular. Declared by the manifesto of the king in 1905, the freedom of conscience, according to many, did not bring the expected release of "religious slavery." For several decades, the Soviet ideologues have argued that only the Leninist decree on freedom of conscience, church and religious organizations, or, in other words, the Decree on the separation of church from state and school from the church, issued in 1918, marked a new era in the spiritual life of the people.

<em>This article examines the theological issues called hakimiyah as the seeds of extremism, fundamentalism, radicalism religion (Islam) that manifests itself in the behavior and acts of violence in the name of religion. The rise of radicalism among young people in the form of violence, terrorism, suicide bombing is coming from theology hakimiyah and Istisyhad doctrine (martyrdom) in order to get guarantee into heaven surrounded by 40 angels. It is because, they always spread hatred and hostility and beliefe to takfiri concept (infidelity) to resolve any different opinion,a belief that led to vigilante, even to take the life of another person as the main ticket to heaven. If the actions and behaviors that hurt the conscience and the humanitarian aspect continues to be done systematically, and sustained by the younger generation, then what would the fate of Mother Earth become? Of course, it is possible to give the birth of the Islamic State of Indonesia Malayasia. Meanwhile, Islam forbids any acts that damage, destroy, injure, and kill for no good reason. Even in a war, moral principles, morality, and ethics should be a guide and reference. Radicalism, terrorism, limbs and destruction have no religion nor country. Everyone who embrace the ideology which spread terror to the people who live safely, and bring damage to plants and animals are terrorist. No one can give any sentence of punishment "deviant," "infidel," "kill" to the group which have different understanding, except Allah, the supreme judges. When we do that kind of behavior and actions, then we are more powerful than God.</em> Tulisan ini mengkaji persoalan teologi hakimiyah sebagai benih ekstremisme, fundamentalisme, radikalisme agama (Islam) yang mewujud dalam perilaku, tindakan kekerasan atas nama agama. Maraknya gerakan radikalisme di kalangan anak muda dalam bentuk aksi kekerasan, terorisme, bom bunuh diri ini yang bersumber dari teologi hakimiyah dan doktrin Istisyhad (mati syahid) demi mendapatkan jaminan masuk surga yang dikelilingi 40 bidadari.Pasalnya, mereka selalu menebarkan kebencian, permusuhan dengan memengang teguh pemahaman takfiri (pengkafiran) untuk menyelesaikan setiap perbedaan pendapat, keyakinan yang berujung pada cara main hakim sendiri, hingga menghilangkan nyawa orang lain sebagai tiket utama masuk surga. Jika tindakan dan perilaku yang melukai aspek kemanusiaan dan hati nurani ini terus dilakukan secara sistematis, berkelanjutan oleh generasi muda, maka apa jadinya nasib Bumi Pertiwi. Tentunya, tidak menutup kemungkinan akan lahirnya Negara Islam Indonesia Malayasia.Padahal, ajaran Islam mengharamkan setiap perbuatan yang merusak, membinasakan, melukai, dan membunuh tanpa alasan yang benar. Dalam peperangan sekalipun, prinsip-prinsip moral, akhlaq, dan etika harus dijadikan pedoman dan acuan. Radikalisme, terorisme, ekstremitas dan pengrusakan tidak punya agama dan tidak pula negara. Setiap orang yang menganut ideologi yang menebarkan teror kepada orang-orang yang hidup aman, serta merusak tumbuhan dan hewan adalah teroris.Tiada seseorang yang dapat memberikan penyebutan hukuman “sesat,” “kafir,” “bunuh” terhadap kelompok yang berbeda pemahaman, keyakinan kecuali hakim yang maha tinggi, Allah Swt. Bila perilaku dan tindakan itu kita lakukan, maka kita lebih berkuasa dari Tuhan.

In the article, the author reveals fragments of the study about repressions of the 1920s and 1930s against the churches, as an institution of society, against the clergy, church services, active parishioners of one of the settlements in Sumy Region(Dubovichi village). Self-identification and peaceful living under the laws of honor in the socialist regime led to the destruction of employed citizens and clergy who lived by vocation and by traditional moral principles. After all, it was they - conscious citizens, intellectuals, who "threaten" the terrorist plot of the Bolshevik authorities on the territory of Ukraine. Special attention was to the citizens who supported Tikhonovsk and Ukrainian autocephalous Orthodox churches. The parishioners of these churches were in principle affirmative. "Tikhonovtsi" decided religious uncompromising, "autocephalous" were nationalistic. Those and others did not perceive the Bolsheviks. Both opposed the political regime. Everyone who was in contact or was attached to these groups was prosecuted and arrested with special severity. Under the repressions were relatives and neighbors. Blackmail of single persons and family, voluminous and falsification documents, taking hostages. That was happening with all who was not controlled during the formation of the Soviet power. Over the 50 people from Dubovichi village and their families fell under the pressure of repressions. Most of them were sentenced to death. Just few of them returned from exile and settled in distant places from their native village. Dubovichi village has a centuries-long history. Best known it is in the religious environment through the icon of Dubovytsi's Mother of God. The miraculous image of the Virgin was discovered in the middle of the 17th century. And the glory about it spread far beyond the then Russian empire. Church leaders from Kiev, from Chernigov gathered at the procession during the celebrations of 1861. The pilgrimage to the icon in Dubovich was round-the-year. Copies from the list of the Virgin Mary Dubovitskaya were in the St. Sophia Cathedral of Kyiv. Information about the icon was printed in church calendars and metropolitan directories of pilgrims. The grand stone church of the Nativity of the Virgin in 1777 in the center of the village, it was the pease of architectural art that was rare in the countryside. As evidenced by foreign sources, the parish church was kind of fortress. It was surrounded by a brick fence with four towers in corners. The entrance to the churchyard was through the gates that were under the bell. There were burials around the temple. Marble monuments were raised on the graves. Icons in the temple were in different kyots, precious stones. Church property included a number of priest clothing, silverware. In the village there were three temples. This provided the opportunity for the parish to have six priests, several clerks and psalms in the state. All were destroyed until 1940, despite the architectural value of the builders and the ancients. Dubovichi parish numbered more than three thousand people at the beginning of the twentieth century. It was glorified by the numerous, beautiful choir, active citizens. The church library was more than 2000 volumes. The priests performed not only the need. Archpriest Gusakovsky was the head of refuge. The village choir numbered more than 60 people. There was a spiritual orchestra, a theater group, a hut-reading room, a rural school and a parochial school, and a folk school in the village. Also there was paramedic station, veterinarian, pharmacy. The hospital unit numbered up to 10 beds. Tolerance and high moral consciousness were typical for the people of Dubovichi. Not only Orthodox lived in the village . Archival documents indicate that the daughter of the priest was offended with the Catholic. Jews lived in Dubovichi. The social group was represented. There were Gypsies among the participants of the school. Those were posterity of that who survived and took good place in life of theatre. Able to analyze falsifications of the campaign to destroy the Dubovichi parish, the destruction of church buildings- works of architectural art. Information from directories, archival documents and old people's buildings allows us to reconstruct conditionally events of those times. The author for the first time highlights this page of the Dubovichi life. As well as information from recently declassified documents from archives of higher authorities on the repressed residents of Dubovichi village. Human losses, disadvantaged families, tales of reletives about Soviet Union. All this make a mosaic of the historical stratum of our country. The coverage of this problem somehow outlines the massive crimes of Soviet politics in the 1920's and 1930's. It is a tribute to those who sacredly keep memories of the repressed.

Pope Francis is urging ministry leaders to become a more synodal church, one where the people of God journey together as a faith community to create a more just and compassionate world. This calls for ministry leaders to embrace a paradigm shift, to not just rename their programs or develop new ones, but to develop a new worldview from which to understand and engage the New Evangelization as envisioned by Pope Francis. However, the 2018 Synod on Young People revealed that the current parish and diocesan programming with young adults are inadequate in: (1) curbing the increasing tide of religious disaffiliation in young adults and (2) addressing the real and felt needs of contemporary Catholic young adults. This article argues for a new ecclesiological imagination that enables ministry leaders to go out into the world to fully engage young adults in the life of the Church.

Jesus founded His Church as the new family of God by instituting the Twelve. The new family is a real space which fulfils the Kingdom of God. It is a community of Jesus’ disciples which fosters the rule of God in the world and has an explicitly institutional dimension. The founding of the new family fulfils the promise to create the new Israel made in the Old Testament. The ethos of the new family of God is aimed at proclaiming the universal reign of God, as it is the mission bestowed on the family by Jesus. Its moral principles were laid out in the Sermon on the Mount. The new family of God is a space where all the promises made by God to Israel come to fulfilment. In this sense, we can speak of continuity between the nation of Israel and the Ecclesia. The Church does not replace the people of the Old Testament but is a continuation thereof in Jesus Christ.

Os profetas do Antigo Testamento tinham grande significado para João Calvino. Há, tanto em suas prédicas quanto preleções, um projeto de interpretação dos profetas. As preleções sobre os profetas (1555-1564) tinham como principal público “os estudantes”, “os ministros” e “outros ouvintes”, grupos que estavam associados aos esforços empreendidos na difusão da fé reformada na França. É provável que os estudantes fossem os ouvintes primários das preleções, especialmente no período posterior à inauguração da Academia de Genebra (1559), a qual pretendia “preparar jovens para o ministério e para o governo civil”, especialmente os futuros líderes da Igreja na França. Entre esses comentários e preleções, destaca-se o comentário ao livro de Daniel, no qual Calvino estabelece uma relação entre a situação de sofrimento vivida pelo povo de Deus na época de Daniel com a situação das igrejas na França, no momento em que a Reforma lançava ali suas raízes e nos primeiros anos do seu desenvolvimento.The books of the prophets were highly estimated by John Calvin, and both his sermons and lectures present a project of interpretation of the prophets. The Lectures on the prophets (1555-1564) were attended by “students”, “ministers” and “other listeners”, groups that were associated with the efforts in spreading the Reformed faith in France. Probably, the students were the primary audience of the Lectures, especially in the beginnings of the Geneva Academy (1559), which intended to “prepare young people for the ministry and the civil government”, especially the future leaders of the Church in France. Among these Commentaries and Lectures, the commentary to the book of Daniel Calvin establishes a link between the situation of suffering experienced by the people of God in Daniel's time with the situation of the churches in the beginning of Reformation in France and in the early years of its development.

The Cultural Revolution

By means of the case study method the problem of revealing the results of the 1930’s Cultural Revolution in the leisure-time behavior of the rural youth has been posed in the article. The Cultural Revolution is understood by the author as a large Soviet project which was started in the 1920s and finished in the post-war decade with the formation of the Soviet man, who mastered the Bolshevik journalese and the necessary public ritual practices along with the symbols of the Soviet system. Antireligious agitation was an integral component of the Cultural Revolution; in fact it was its core. As the subject of the historical reconstruction it was chosen an incident in the Cathedral of the Transfiguration of the Savior in Gamovo village during the Easter holiday 1953. A document with the description of the incident compiled by P.S. Gorbunov, plenipotentiary for the Russian Orthodox Church in Molotov Region has been analyzed in detail. For the solution of this problem the author applied the resources which hadn’t been introduced for the scientific use earlier: materials from Party conferences and meetings; information from the Administration of the MGB in the Molotov region, letters and written requests to the Regional Committee of the CPSU. The original thesis of the article is stated as follows. As a result of the Cultural Revolution it was formed a new type of the Soviet person who according to the basic characteristics was divided into two types: the urban inhabitant living by his on private interests, and the hooligan from the workers' suburb, a violent and disruptive troublemaker. In the article it is reconstructed the events which took place in the village church on the night from the third to the fourth of April, 1953: intrusion of the drunken young men, their outrage on the porch and in the church fence, a knife-fight and, finally, a murder. The author has offered a hypothesis making possible to explain their licentious behavior by the fact that in the culture of working (rural) youth the boundaries between different kinds of space were erased. The Orthodox Church and the village club were identical for them in their leisure value. The norms of street and courtyard culture were applied to them equally. The status of the temple was lower than that of the club. Young people equated the church with something backward, boring, and old. The party and punitive agencies did all they could to alienate the new generation from any form of religious life. As a result, young people either stood aside the Orthodox Church or treated it with contempt, or, in exceptional cases, outraged within its bounds.
