Faith is not picking and choosing those things we like to believe and disregarding those things we dislike. 15. Faith seeks understanding (St. Anselm). Faith should lead each person to desire a deeper and better understanding of God. Understanding develops over time and will not be completed until seeing God face to face. As understanding grows faith grows as well. 16. The priceless gift of faith can be lost through carelessness or sin. 17. Faith enables each person to enjoy on earth the very life of God. Faith in this life is the beginning of eternity. Faith is the realization of what is hoped for and evidence of things not seen. (Heb. 11:1) 18. Mary is the supreme model of faith. She trusted God would protect her as He carried out His plan in her life. 19. It is for her obedient faith that all generations have called Mary blessed. (Luke 1:48) 20.

We see this by His hunger and thirst in the desert, temptation by the devil, sorrow at the death of Lazarus, agony in the garden, and His death on the cross. His love for the little children, care for women, relationships with the apostles, and honor of His parents show us that He also experienced joy, love, happiness, and lived a virtuous human life. 6. Humans are created in the image and likeness of God. To live a fulfilled life, each person must learn and become who they were created to be.

The individual responsibility of those involved in Christ s trial and sentence is known to God alone. Therefore, the blame for the death of Christ is not to be judged by us. On the cross, Jesus forgave the people who killed him. It is unjust to lay the responsibility for Jesus death upon Jews of different eras. The teacher should make this point when presenting 38-45, The teacher should make this point when presenting 38-44, 149, 278, 279 In Summary 283 We Believe It is all sinners who were the authors and the ministers of all the sufferings that the divine Redeemer endured (Roman Catechism I, 5, 11). Christ took upon Himself the sins and punishment of all people; therefore all people take part in the Passion and death of Christ. 3. The Passion and death of Jesus are all part of God s plan. Human reason cannot understand all parts of this plan. This is why God s plan for salvation is called a mystery. 4. Scripture foretold the passion of Christ. In the book of Isaiah the prophecy of the Suffering Servant is told. This foretells the story of the righteous one, my servant who freely suffers for the sins of another bringing redemption of another (Isa. 53:11). Christ s passion and death is the fulfillment of this prophecy , 80, Titles of Christ 161 In Summary 163 Catholic Tradition , In Summary 163 Catholic Tradition 130 Because of Alive in Christ's unique approach to curriculum the understanding of Jesus as the Suffering Servant was presented in Grade 6; However, the teacher may wish to revisit it when presenting 38-45,80, In Summary 163 Catholic Tradition In Summary , 149, 278, 279 In Summary 283 We Believe 364 Because of Alive in Christ's unique approach to curriculum the understanding of Jesus as the Suffering Servant was presented in Grade 6; However, the teacher may wish to revisit it when presenting 38-44, 98-99, 149, 278, 279 In Summary 283 We Believe 364 Alive in Christ 2014 Parish Correlation to the Diocese of Ft.

25 5. The night before he died, Jesus celebrated the Passover with the Apostles. It was at this Last Supper that the Sacrament of the Eucharist was instituted. 6. The continued gift of Himself is Christ s True Presence in the Eucharist. 7. Jesus includes the apostles present at the Last Supper at His offering of the Eucharist and instructs them to do this in remembrance of Himself. At this moment Christ, not only institutes the Sacrament of the Eucharist, but He ordains the apostles as priests of the New Covenant. 8. After the Last Supper, Jesus went to the Garden of Gethsemane to pray. There, He freely accepted the will of the Father and freely offered Himself up for the sake of humanity. 9. Jesus truly died on the cross. In God s plan, Jesus experienced the fullness of death. Christ s soul left His body and His body and soul remained apart for three days until they were rejoined at the Resurrection. 10. By His obedience, Christ makes up for the disobedience of all. 11. The Paschal Sacrifice is a sacrifice of love. It is Christ s love for humankind that leads Him to the cross.

26 12. Because of His sacrifice, all people can be united with God in Heaven at the end of time. 13. Just as Christ endured many sufferings during His Passion, we must all endure suffering in this life and unite it to His. 14. The symbol of the crucifix is a reminder of how much God loves each person. 15. Through the Passion and death of Jesus the separation between God and humanity - which is caused by sin - has been bridged.

27 4. The Resurrection and Ascension of Christ are real historical events. The empty tomb spoken about in the Gospels is physical proof of this event. 5. Mary Magdalene and the other holy women were the first eyewitnesses of the Resurrection. They found the tomb empty and acted as the first messengers of the Resurrection bringing the news to the apostles themselves. 6. The Resurrection of Christ is a mystery. Even the apostles struggled with doubts. They had seen Christ put to death with their very own eyes. The story relating Thomas doubt demonstrates the challenge to faith this event caused the apostles. 7. The Resurrection fulfills the promises of the Old Testament as well as those made by Jesus in the New Testament. This is pointed out through the phrase, in accordance with the Scriptures (1 Cor. 15:3-4). 8. Christ s Resurrection verifies all He proclaimed. It confirms that Jesus is the Son of God, that all of His teachings are true, and that all of God s faithful will be resurrected on the last day.
