THE IMPORTANCE OF THE SERMON AND THE PREACHER’S RESPONSIBILITY, ACCORDING TO ARCHIMANDRITE IULIU SCRIBAN

Summary/Abstract: In his homiletic writings, the author illustrates the significance that speech has inpreaching the Word of God and he describes it as the tool with which the priestfulfills the mission he was given by his Savior, to preach His Gospel to the world.Father Iuliu Scriban insists on several traits that characterize church language,stressing the idea that the Church has established very precise forms forexpounding the truths of faith, for the use of the revealed Word. Thus, words mustbe the most suitable in respect with their contents; they must convey God’s will.He recommends that words without any impact or words that carry no emotion,no suggestive value, no authority, should be avoided.
