Basic Sixteen Documents of the Vatican Council II

Constitutions, Decrees, Declarations

The Church's twenty-one ecumenical councils have been crucial to its understanding of its Biblical heritage. They have taken place less frequently in recent centuries, one three since 1517: Trent (1545-1563), Vatican I (1869-1870), and Vatican II (1962-1965).

Their absorption into the day-to-day belief and practice of individual Christians has always taken time. And Vatican II has been no exception. Hence the importance of this Vatican II's sixteen documents, without commentary or additional documentation, and in inclusive language. A new edition of the documents of the 21st ecumenical council, for the 21st century.

Bishop Olmsted explains what is appropriate in today's secular world and how we should seek to influence our nation and the political process, in light of our Catholic faith.

You will learn the answers to these important issues and more:

God Is Love - Deus Caritas Est by His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI

In today's high-tech, fast-paced world, love is often portrayed as being separate from Church teaching.

With his first encyclical, Pope Benedict XVI hopes to overturn that perception and describe the essential place of love in the life of the Church.

The Holy Father explains the various dimensions of love, highlighting the distinctions between "eros" and "agape," Jesus as the incarnate love of God, and the scriptural law of love. In part two, he links the Church's charitable work with the love of God as Trinity, noting that the Church must express love through acts of justice and charity. This encyclical is an ideal reflection for religious and civic leaders, those preparing for marriage, and those engaged in justice and charitable work.

On Christian Hope - Spe Salvi by His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI

In his encyclical letter On Christian Hope, Pope Benedict XVI elaborates the significance of Christian hope in eternal life for contemporary Catholics by presenting examples of hope from the New Testament and saints of the Church.

After affirming the modern practice of working to progress in faith with the help of reason, he reminds readers that hope ultimately depends on trusting in God's love for us, and that Christians can be strengthened by turning to God together, in community.
