Abstract

The aim of this article is to present the introduction to the individual parts of the „Catechism of the Catholic church". It is meant to be a guide which demonstrates the structure of the Catechism, the nature of truth and their hierarchy. The structure of the recent Catechism, recalling the "Roman Catechism", demonstrates the fundamental concepts of pedagogy of faith, which is expressed in the following synthesis: what he believes, what he celebrates, how the contemporary Christian and the Church live and pray. There The fundamental premise of the "Catechism" is the presentation of the entity and the overall concept. The individual parts of this document join together with a whole logic, thus forming a well organised. In the presentation, on the one hand, the anthropological character was highlighted (il starting point is man and his life), on the other hand it is placed in the biblical-theological perspective of the Christocentric and Trinitarian character. The illustration of faith indicates the language of theology narrative, instead the moral part entitled "Vita in Christo", the title highlights, in what the Christian life consists. The liturgy is demonstrated as the dynamic and living reality, through which it is expresses the Church and who worships God and Savior. The part on prayer is a particular testimony of the church that prays. The hierarchy of truths, although not clearly spelled out, seems to be you form around Trinitarian and Christological truths, especially paschal ones.
