Summary: | Jesus Christ had initiated a charismatic community, which finally evolved into the Church. It is not, however, a spiritual and heavenly reality alone. It has got a visible human face and an organizational structure. It is not a stagnant but a dynamic one, comprising of independent and free human beings. This independence is, however, not absolute, nor a license to do anything without limit or regard for fellow human beings. Just as different parts or organs of a human being are endowed with different duties, and as they function according to an ordered structure for the organic growth, different individuals and juridical institutions in the Church community also have certain specific tasks to fulfil, which are aimed at the good of the individuals as well as the society. These individuals and juridical institutions must have sufficient freedom and ambience conducive to discharge the tasks they are assigned with. |
