Abstract

Speaking God’s Word is a continuation of Jesus’s mission of salvation. It is one of three basic functions of the Church from Her beginning. Documents of the Second Vatican Council and following Church’s teaching place a great deal of importance on the sources and forms of expressing the God’s Word. History and contemporary times show that speaking can adopt various forms. However, the most basic form is always homily, for which Holy Bible Old and New Testament are the first and an irreplaceable source.

Keywords:

Speaking God’s Word, sources and forms, homily, sermon, Holy Bible, Tradition, liturgy
