Keywords:
interreligious dialog, persaudaraan universal, magisterium, misi GerejaAbstract
This research addresses the main questions: what magisterial teachings can be applied to building interreligious dialogue, why it is necessary to realize these teachings to build interreligious dialogue and universal brotherhood, and what challenges are faced in realizing interreligious dialogue. Based on these questions, the objectives of this research are to examine the Magisterium's teachings on interreligious dialogue in depth, so that this research is effective in uncovering magisterial teachings. Thus, the author will use a literature study through an in-depth study of official Church documents that explicitly and implicitly call for teachings on interreligious dialogue. The author will follow a framework that provides strong impetus for the Church's commitment and involvement in interreligious dialogue. The author hopes to find the main result of this research, namely the magisterial teachings on interreligious dialogue that are significant for realizing universal brotherhood. The author believes that an authentic attitude of peace through dialogue, one that does not exclude anyone, is a mission of the Church that must be upheld. Thus, the plan of God the Father, who calls all human beings to live as brothers and sisters, can be realized. All human beings are called to work together without violence and without deceit to build a world in the spirit of true peace.References
