ALTHOUGHtheoutlook fortheChurchisfavourable, itfacesanumberofthreats, mainlyinthepoliticalfield. Extremenationalismis causingmosttroubleat present.Thegovernmenthas bannedallforeigpersfrom teachingclassesinanysubjectotherthanreligion.This hasadverselyaffeetedmany Catholicschoolswithmissionariesontheirstaffs. Similarlawsmaybeadoptedbanningforeignersfrom employmentinhospitals, whichwouldalsohurt Church-operatedinstitutions.
ThepositionofDutch missionariesisalsothreatenedbycontinuingtension oetweenIndonesiaandThe Netherlandsoverthestatus ofWestNewGuinea,which bothnationsclaim.Most missionarieshaveapplied for butIndonesiancitizenship, onlyonehasreceivedit sofar.
Thereissomedangerthat Indonesia,withitspredominantlyMoslempopulation, couldadoptIslamasaState religion.Thenation'sMoslems,however,aregener-allynobfanaticandthe 1,owerofMoslempartieshas declinedinrecentyears.

EarlyHistory
THEHISTORYofthe ChurchinIndonesiagoes backtothe13thcentury whenFranciscanmissionaries,whowereboundfor China,stoppedoffinsome partsoftheislands.Butthe resultstheyachieved,ifany, disappearedcompletely.
Thesecondmissionary periodbeganin1511when thePortugueseoccupied AmboinaandTernateinthe MoluccaIslands.They foundedseveralmissions, whichwerevisitedbySt. FrancisXavierin1546.But missionaryworkwashamperedbyconflictsbetween
thePortugueseandlocal rulersandcametoanend whentheProtestantDutch tooktheislandsattheend ofthe16thcentury. Aftertwocenturiesof Dutchrule,almostalltrace oftheFaithhaddisappeared fromIndonesiaexceptfor smallgroupsofCatholicson FloresIsland,whichtoday hasabouthalfthenation's Catholics.
TheChurchreturnedto Indonesiaatthebeginning ofthe19thcenturywhen TheNetherlandscameunder Frenchcontrol.In1808two priestsfromHollandFathersJamesNeilssenand LambertPreffen-arrived. TheApostolicPrefectureof Batavia,asJakartawas calledwhenitwasthecapi- taloftheDutchEastIndies, wassetupin1826with jurisdictionoverthewhole country.Whenitwasraised totherankofanapostolic vicariatein1842.ithadonly lourpriests.Theiractivities werelimitedtocaringfor EuropeanCatholicsonJava.

ALTHOUGHtheoutlook fortheChurchisfavourable, itfacesanumberofthreats, mainlyinthepoliticalfield.
Extremenationalismis causingmosttroubleat present.Thegovernmenthas bannedallforeigpersfrom teachingclassesinanysubjectotherthanreligion.This hasadverselyaffectedmany Catholicschoolswithmissionariesontheirstaffs. Similarlawsmaybeadoptedbanningforeignersfrom employmentinhospitals, whichwouldalsohurt Church-operatedinstitutions.
ThepositionofDutch missionariesisalsothreatenedbycontinuingtension betweenIndonesiaandThe Netherlandsoverthestatus ofWestNewGuinea,which bothnationsclaim.Most missionarieshaveapplied forIndonesiancitizenship, butonlyonehasreceivedIt far.
Thereissomedangerthat Indonesia,withitspredomi- nantlyMoslempopulation, couldadoptIslamasaState religion.Thenation'sMoslems,however,aregener- allynobfanaticandthe powerofMoslempartieshas declinedinrecentyears.

DelayOfTheIncarnation
F.R.C.,North,Queensland:WhydidGod takesolongtosendHisSon,theRedeemer?
R.:Godhasnottoldus
41;Aat. St.Paulwrotetothe Galatianssimplythat"when thefullnessoftimewas come,GodsentHisSon." Gal.4:4.That"fullnessof time"wasobviouslythe timedecreedbyGodinHis infinitewisdom,andmust havebeenwhatHeknew tobethebestpossibletime. Wehavetoleaveitatthat, sinceourthoughtsarenot themeasureofHiswisdom. WritingtotheRomans aboutourrelationshipswith God,St.Paulexclaimed: "Howincomprehensibleare HisjudgmentsandhowunsearchableHisways!For whobathknownthemind oftheLord,orwhohath beenHiscounsellor?"Rom. 11:34. -.0i
PossibleReasons
Q.:Wastheworldsocompletelywickedatthe timeofHiscoming;or comparativelygood,shall Isay,uptillthen?
R.:PartofGod'seternal decreetoproyideforman's redemptionwasthedecree thatHisSonwouldcome whenHedid.Therecanbe noquestionofGodhavingto waittoseehowmenwere behavingbeforedecidingon themostsuitabletimeto sendHisEternalSon.If, lookingbackatthehistoricalfacts,oneinsistsonforminghumanconjecturesasto God'smotives,onecan imaginethatGoddecreed thatmankindshouldlearn itsneedofaRedeemerto comebyalongandbitter experienceofitssinfulstate;* alsothat,inaccordancewith
mankind'sslowandgradual culturaldevelopment,time shouldbeallowedforincreasinglyexplicitrevelationsculminatinginalong seriesofprophetspreparing humanityforthegreatest eventinitshistory.Butall humanconjecturesarebound tobeinadequateinthepresenceofamystery,thefull solutionofwhichcanbe knownonlybyGod.Noone awareofthelimitationsof thehumanmindissurprised bythat;nordoesitmakethe leastdifferencetothefact thattheEternalSonofGod came,andcamewhenHe did.
Christ"AGood Man"
Q.:DoubtlessJesusChrist wasagoodandholyman.
R.:Ifso,HewasGod comeintothisworld.IfHe wasnotGod,Hecouldnot havebeenagoodandholy man;forHedefinitely claimedtobeGod.Agood andholymandoesnotmake falseandblasphemous claims.ThatChristclaimedtobeGodtheJewsof Histimeknewquitewell, sayingtoHim:"Westone theeforblasphemy,because beingamanthoumakest thyselfGod."Jn.10:33. Jesusdidnotindignantlyrepudiatethecharge,asagood andholymanwoulddone werehenotGod.
OtherReligious Teachers
Q.:However,Mohometwas agoodmantoo,justas Moseswasgood.andf'on-
fuclusandBuddaand Zoroaster;soalsoKeshal, Senandthemorerecent MahatmaGandhi. R.:There'snoneedto wastetimediscussingthe respectivemeritsofthose religiousteachersandtheir doctrines,Notoneofthem claimedtobeGod.They claimedatmosttoshow menthewaytoGod,to teachreligioustruth,andto giverulesforagoodlife. Butnotoneofthemdared tosay,asdidChristOur Lord:"Iamtheway,the truthandthelife."Jn.14:6. Jesusdidwhatnootherreligiousteachereverdid. HesubordinatedHisteachingtoHisPerson.Inother religious,themessageis moreimportantthanthe messenger.Butnotsoin Christianity.Whereothers refermentoGod,Jesus neveroncepointedaway fromHimselftoGod."Come tome,"Hesaid,"andIwill refreshyou."Matt.11:28.

"Transubstantiation"
Philosophus,Richmond:AreCatholics boundbytheScholasticexplanationof thedoctrineofTransubstantiation?
R.:Yes.Thereis,ofcourse,adifferencebetween thedoctrineofTransubstantiationandtheScholasticexplanationofit.Thedoctrineisadefined ArticleofFaith,namely,thatintheHolyEucharist Christisreallypresentbythechangingofthe substantialrealityofOurLord'sBodyandBlood, theappearancesoroutwardqualitiesofbreadand wineremainingastheywere.
TheScholasticphilosophers,inexplainingthis doctrine,reasonedtotheconclusionthatthe substanceofamaterialobjectisnotthesamething asitsaccidentsoroutwardqualities,andthatthere canbenothingagainstGod'schangingtheone withoutchangingtheother.Theterm"transubstantiation"wasdevisedtoexpresssuchachange ofsubstanceintheEucharist.
CouncilDefinition
TheLateranCouncilin1215,andtheCouncilof Trentin1551,definedasanArticleofFaiththe substantialpresenceofChristintheEucharistand affirmedthattheterm"transubstantiation"isa correctandmostsuitableexpressionofit.The termitselfisnotanArticleofFaith.Amanwould notbetechnicallyahereticwhorejectedit.But Suarezrightlysaidthatonewhodidsowouldsin bysuchrashconduct.givescandal,andrender himselfatleastsuspectofheresy.
Inhis1950Encyclical,"HumaniGeneris,"Pope PiusXIIsaysthattheChurchrecognisesand receivesScholasticphilosophyinsofaras"itupholds theunassailableprinciplesofmetaphysics,"suchas sufficientreason,causality,finalityandthepossibilityofarrivingatnaturaltruth.Hesaysthat thereismuchinthisphilosophywhichdoesnot touch,directlyorindirectly,faithormorals,and whichtheChurchleavesopentofreediscussion.
Butheaddsthatthislibertycannotbeclaimed overthemainprinciplesonwhichitrests.Helists theconceptofsubstance,onwhichthedoctrineof transubstantiationdepends,asoneofthese,and includesitamongthoseconceptionswhichhave beenusedandsohallowedintheirusebythe GeneralCouncilsthattheycannotwithoutimpiety beabandoned.
TheEnglishword"transubstantiation"is,of course,notsomuchatranslationasatransliteration oftheLatinword"transubstantiatio;"anditisnot theLatinwordthatweareobligedtoaccept;it's theconcept.
TheGreekOrthodoxChurch,atitsCouncilof Jerusalem,in1672,definedthechangeinthe Eucharisttobeoneof"metousiosis,"whichisthe sameas"transubstantiation,"althoughnotassociatedwiththephilosophicalterminologyofthe LatinScholastics.

DelayOfTheIncarnation
F.R.C.,North,Queensland:WhydidGod takesolongtosendHisSon,theRedeemer?
R.:Godhasnottoldus Vaat.St.Paulwrotetothe Galatianssimplythat"when thefullnessoftimewas come,GodsentHisSon."
Gal.4:4.That"fullnessof time"wasobviouslythe timedecreedbyGodinHis infinitewisdom,andmust havebeenwhatHeknew tobethebestpossibletime. Wehavetoleaveitatthat, sinceourthoughtsarenot themeasureofHiswisdom. WritingtotheRomans aboutourrelationshipswith God,St.Paulexclaimed: "Howincomprehensibleare HisjudgmentsandhowunsearchableHisways!For whohathknownthemind oftheLord,orwhohath beenHiscounsellor?"Rom. 11:34.
PossibleReasons
Q.:Wastheworldsocompletely.wicked.at.the timeofHiscoming;or comparativelygood,shall Isay,uptillthen?
R.:PartofGod'seternal decreetoprovideforman's redemptionwasthedecree thatHisSonwouldcome whenHedid.Therecanbe noquestionofGodhavingto waittoseehowmenwere behavingbeforedecidingon themostsuitabletimeto sendHisEternalSon.If. lookingbackatthehistoricalfacts,oneinsistsonforminghumanconjecturesasto God'smotives,onecan imaginethatGoddecreed thatmankindshouldlearn itsneedofaRedeemerto comebyalongandbitter experienceofitssinfulstate;' alsothat,inaccordancewith

Christ"AGood Man"

TheTerm "Transubstantiation"

St.Paul,in56A.D.but23 yearsafterthedeathof Christ,wrotetotheRomans thetruthallChristiansknew andbelieved,namely,that "Christ,whoisoverall things"is"Godblessedforever."Rom.9:5.St.ClementofRome,andSt.IgnatiusofAntioch,bothwriting inthefirstcentury,expresslydeclareChristtobe God.Wherearethecenturiesforyourslowlydevelopingfable?Youdonot saytowhatProtestantdenominationyoubelong,but ithasleftyousadlyignorantofyourreligionasa Christian.Foryourrash conclusion,ofcourse,withoutsomuchasbothering tostudyyoursourcesand verifythefacts,youyourselfareresponsible.Asa consequenceyoutalkfolly, notcommonsense,quite apartfromthequestionof profanity.
TheScholasticphilosophers,inexplainingthis doctrine,reasonedtotheconclusionthatthe substanceofamaterialobjectisnotthesamething asitsaccidentsoroutwardqualities,andthatthere canbenothingagainstGod'schangingtheone withoutchangingtheother.Theterm"transubstantiation"wasdevisedtoexpresssuchachange ofsubstanceintheEucharist.
CouncilDefinition
TheLateranCouncilin1215,andtheCouncilof Trentin1551,definedasanArticleofFaiththe substantialpresenceofChristintheEucharistand affirmedthattheterm"transubstantiation"isa correctandmostsuitableexpressionofit.The termitselfisnotanArticleofFaith.Amanwould notbetechnicallyahereticwhorejectedit.But Suarezrightlysaidthatonewhodidsowouldsin bysuchrashconduct.givescandal,andrender himselfatleastsuspectofheresy.
Inhis1950Encyclical,"HumaniGeneris,"Pope PiusXIIsaysthattheChurchrecognisesand receivesScholasticphilosophyinsofaras"itupholds theunassailableprinciplesofmetaphysics,"suchas sufficientreason,causality,finalityandthepossibilityofarrivingatnaturaltruth.Hesaysthat thereismuchinthisphilosophywhichdoesnot touch,directlyorindirectly,faithormorals,and whichtheChurchleavesopentofreediscussion. Butheaddsthatthislibertycannotbeclaimed overthemainprinciplesonwhichitrests.Helists theconceptofsubstance,onwhichthedoctrineof transubstantiationdepends,asoneofthese,and includesitamongthoseconceptionswhichhave beenusedandsohallowedintheirusebythe GeneralCouncilsthattheycannotwithoutimpiety beabandoned.
TheEnglishword"transubstantiation"is,of course,notsomuchatranslationasatransliteration oftheLatinword"transubstantiatio;"anditisnot theLatinwordthatweareobligedtoaccept;it's theconcept.
TheGreekOrthodoxChurch,atitsCouncilof Jerusalem,in1672,definedthechangeinthe Eucharisttobeoneof"metousiosis,"whichisthe sameas"transubstantiation,"althoughnotassociatedwiththephilosophicalterminologyofthe LatinScholastics.
