It is grounded in Sacred Scripture and transmitted through Sacred Tradition, forming part of the coherent unity of Christian teaching. Evangelization designates a defined doctrinal reality within the Catholic faith that arises from divine revelation and is authoritatively interpreted by the Church’s Magisterium. Properly understood, it is ordered toward communion with the Most Holy Trinity and participation in the redemptive mission of Jesus Christ. The Church consistently teaches that this doctrine must be interpreted within the harmony of faith and reason, avoiding reductionism or distortion. The theological articulation of evangelization developed over centuries through the reflection of the Fathers, the decrees of ecumenical councils, and the pastoral life of the Church.
