In today's article, let's find out what the meaning of the word "Amen" is, from young Catholics and young people on facebook often used.
"Amen" is classified as an exclamation point. It is a word well used in the Liturgy and in the Bible. In Christianity, "Amen" is a word as a conclusion of prayers and prayers. On the contrary, in Islam, "Amen" is considered a request.
“Amen” will be the word to end a prayer or wish to God. Besides, if you pay close attention you will see that those who are Priests, Deacons also use this word "Amen" in the Feast of Amen, and it is understood to mean "Yes, certainly so".
So we temporarily understand that "Amen" means thank God, thank God and it will be used after each prayer (for those on the Christian side). "Amen" is the same as "Amitabha Buddha" used in Buddhism.
In the Liturgy: Amen is used to end a request with the hope that God will accept that request and grant it as desired.
In addition to the desire to have the above prayer answered, Amen also means “yes, certainly so” – This meaning is used when the priest, deacon or eucharistic minister holds up the Host or chalice of the Precious Blood. The Lord ascended and said "Christ's Body" or "Christ's Blood." The communicator said Amen, which means "yes, this is the Body, or Blood of Christ".
So, before receiving the Body and Blood of the Lord, we must say Amen with this meaning in order to profess the belief that Christ is really present in the image of Bread and Wine.
