The relationship between worship and culture in the mission of the Church

Summary/Abstract: What represents culture today for the changed and changing humanity, what ties does it have with the forms of worship and how can we explain the beautiful paradigm civilization-culture-spirituality worship- divinity, knowing that any form of manifestation of deity worship generates worship, which then transposes itself in spirituality, annihilating the forms without substance and becoming culture as foundation of any civilization? The axiom of the relationship between worship and culture remains forever, for the Christian, the Church, its mission being his own mission, in his postulated capacity as a citizen of the Kingdom of God, a traveler on this earth, to which he has a mission and a special call. True culture is not an end in itself, but is an integral part of the religious conception. It expresses a symbolic relation with heaven, as religion expresses a real relation to it, dialog. Denial of the Christian worship of the Church generates false culture, inculturation and trend, surrogates that end up capping and rebooting, in strategies forever destined to fail, because man found in conflict with God cannot generate culture, the conflictual attitude itself being the cause of this spiritual suicide.
