The term "Magisterium" refers to the teaching authority of the Roman Catholic Church. It is responsible for interpreting and preserving the doctrines of the faith. The Magisterium consists of the Pope and the bishops in communion with him, who guide the Church in matters of faith and morals. The Magisterium operates under the belief that it is divinely guided to ensure the correct understanding of Scripture and Tradition. It plays a crucial role in addressing contemporary issues and providing clarity on theological questions, helping the faithful navigate their beliefs in a changing world.
