Part 1
Interviewer: Sir, wish you a good morning.
Priest: Yes, very good morning.
Interviewer: I am here to ask you about some important things about the theology and liturgical
issues in the Roman Catholic tradition. This will help me to assess and understand the issues
much better.
Priest: Yes, sure. I will brief you about the things you ask for and clarify your doubts. I hope you
will be able to understand the various issues in a better manner indeed.
Interviewer: Sir, will you please brief me about the notions of the liturgy in the Roman Catholic
tradition? I had problems in understanding the subjects properly.
Priest: I must begin by saying the entire Roman Catholic Christian tradition will begin with the
worship for God only. The God and the Holy Trinity is the ultimate benefactor if the human
beings from all the aspects. We should always thank the God for the life He has given me. This
will be important for the understanding the liturgical values within the Catholic tradition.
Interviewer: Sir, can you please explain the concept of redemption in this context of the Roman
Catholic tradition?
Priest: Yes son, I will definitely clarify your doubts in this matter. I must say that God is the
ultimate power in the universe and He is aware of all the sins we commit. If we commit the sins,
we will get separated from the benevolence of the God Himself. We have to do the good works
so we can redeem our sins and were away our sins completely.

Interviewer: Yes, I know about this fact. If we do not redeem our sins, what will happen to us?
Priest: I would like to say that the ultimate fate of committing of sins and not going through
redemption is death. If we go through the act of redemption, this will cure us of all the sins and
God will take us in His shelter. God is holy and He is the person who manifests the perfection
indeed. God cannot tolerate the humanity that is full of sins. This is one important aspect of the
Roman Catholic tradition.
Interviewer: Can you please give an insight into the matter of Holy Trinity in the Roman
Catholic Church tradition?
Priest: Yes, of course. This is one of the holiest traditions in our church tradition. The Holy
Trinity refers to the almighty God, the son Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. They are the most
important persons of the entire Roman Catholic Church tradition indeed. All of them together
present the divine nature of the earth. They are eternal and they have the powers to understand
the sins that the human beings have committed. The Holy Trinity will always keep an eye on the
things that the human beings are doing. The Holy Trinity has different responsibilities but their
common purpose is to provide the human beings with a divine life.
Interviewer: What is the relevance of the faith groups in the current Roman Catholic Christian
tradition?
Priest: The importance of the faith groups is huge in this context of the Roman Catholic Church
tradition. The people who believe in the Roam Catholic traditions believe in the existence of
God, Jesus Christ and their miraculous powers in the most ways. The believers in the faith group
of the Christians think that they should strengthen the bond between the Communities properly.

Then they put focus on the significance of fidelity. The love and faith are the central elements of
these faith groups in the Roman Catholic Christian community.1’
Interviewer: Thank You Sir for sharing your grave knowledge with me. I would want you to
know about the other important things in the Christian traditions of the Roman Catholic Church?
Priest: Definitely son. I will enlighten you with the limited knowledge I have about the vastness
of God. Faith and Love are two very important concepts in the Roman Catholic Church
traditions. The roots of the faith and love are stacked in the New Testament. The faith in God
must be kept all the time since the God has revealed His existence in the Jesus Christ Himself.
The Christ has been the perfect revelation of God in this earth. This is why we should always be
obedient to Him indeed. The miraculous events that the God has exercised are believed to be the
events that have established the faith of the human beings on Him. The divine truth about life
and death can only be revealed.
Part 2
The Roman Catholic Church tradition is a very old and traditional way of Christianity. I
have come across many things in this scenario. I believed in the existence of God previously but
I was not aware of the different things that the priest of the church had said to me. I have come to
know the details about the importance of the faith groups in the Christian community.2 The faith
groups are so important and the purpose of their preaching is to identify the love and faith within

the minds of the human beings. I have been surprised to listen to the detailed facts about the
Holy Trinity in the Roman Catholic Church tradition.3 The importance of the Holy Trinity is
huge in the context of the Christianity.4 I have also come to know about the redemption indeed. I
believe if I have committed any sin I must confess it to the Almighty and ask for forgiveness.
This will redeem my sins to some extent and increase my real worth as a human being. I have
been fascinated by the words of the priest as I have come to know about the vastness of God in
this world.5 I want to be obedient to God and be successful in both my professional and personal
lives. I have fixed my decisions that I want to follow the virtues of the New Testament and
develop my understanding of the Bible in a new way.
