AM rr In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, amen. GOD INCARNATES; THE CHURCH FOUNDED OME 2,000 years ago, our Lord Jesus Christ directly intervened in human history. Although He S is God (together with the Father and the Holy Spirit), He became a man—or, as we often put it, He became incarnate —enfleshed. Mankind, at its very beginning in Adam and Eve, had fallen away from Divine life by embracing sin, and had fallen under the power of death. But the Lord Jesus, by His incarnation, death upon the Cross, and subsequent resurrection from death on the third day, destroyed the power death had over men. By His teaching and His whole saving work, Christ reconciled to God a humanity that had grown distant from God1 and had become ensnared in sins.2 He abolished the authority the Devil had acquired over men3 and He renewed and re-created both mankind and His whole universe.4 Bridging the abyss separating man and God, by means of the union of man and God in His own Person, Christ our Saviour opened the way to eternal, joyful life after death for all who would accept it.5 Not all the people of Judea, the Hebrews, God’s chosen people (Deut 7:6; Is 44:1), were ready to hear this news, and so our Lord spoke to them mostly in parables and figures.

Those who have served on the Commission at every stage since its inception in 1966, and since our own Co-Chairmanship began in 1980, have been aware that this is the case, although we may sometimes have been tempted to think otherwise.

  • USCCA Chapter Notes
    USCCA Chapter Notes USCCA Chapter : 11 – The Four Marks of the Church CCC Paragraph Reference : CCC #811-962 – The Church is One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic. Doctrinal Premise . What is the underlying truth behind the doctrine of this chapter ? Connecting it to Christ, summarize the chapter in 1-2 sentences. The four primary characteristics of the Church are that she is one, holy, catholic and apostolic. They are inseparable reflections of the mission Christ gave the Church. Three questions adults might have about this topic. What life-issues do I need to connect with in the people at my session? 1. Given the Four Marks of the Church, what kind of a relationship do non-Catholic Christians have with the Church? 2. What are the different roles and responsibilities in the Church? 3. How can we say that anyone in the Church is infallible? Three Points from the Story of Faith/Testimony. How is the underlying truth taught in this chapter brought to life? Person of Faith : Blessed Junipero Serra 1. Fr. Junipero Serra, a Franciscan priest of Spain, became a missionary to Mexico and California in 1749. He worked with the native population for twenty years. He founded nine of the twenty-one California missions, many which later became cities. 2. He focused much of his work advocating for the rights of native Americans with military and civil authorities. Despite an ulcerated lung, Fr. Serra visited the missions frequently, baptizing thousands of native Americans and helping them develop agriculture. Fr. Serra died in 1784. 3. Fr. Serra was beatified in 1988 by Pope John Paul II after much dialogue with native Americans over Fr.

  • Assessing the Apostolic Faith Mission of South Africa in the Light of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church
    From Vision to Structure From vision to structure: Assessing the Apostolic Faith Mission of South Africa in the light of the one, holy, catholic and apostolic church. Daniël Nicolaas Andrew A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of doctor theologia in the faculty of arts, University of the Western Cape. Supervisor: Professor D.J. Smit November 2005 i From Vision to Structure KEYWORDS 1. Vision 2. Structure 3. One 4. Holy 5. Catholic 6. Apostolic 7. Experience 8. Tradition 9. Models 10. Dialogical ii From Vision to Structure ABSTRACT The intention of the AFMSA to revision its policies, processes and structures is the motivation for this study. The relationship between the vision and essential nature of the church and the structure or form given to it is central to all the chapters. The first chapter gives an analysis of the origins of the Pentecostal Movement and the AFMSA in order to reveal their original vision of the church and the way in which this vision became structured in their history. After a section on the importance of a clear vision and strategic structures for organizations today, the biblical metaphors that served as a foundation for the early Christians’ vision of the church are discussed. Our Christian predecessors’ envisioning and structuring of the church in each period of history are analyzed. This gives an idea of the need for reform and the challenges involved in this process, which are still faced by later generations. The historical survey reveals the development of the marks and the vision of the early Christians to represent the one, holy, catholic and apostolic church.

  • Marks of the Church
    Marks of the Church VIDEO LINK http://youtu.be/lhxxaAJ7_nY GOAL SUMMARY The goal of this session is for young people to come to a better understanding of what we mean when, on Sundays at Mass, when we profess to believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church. VIDEO SUMMARY In this video, Bishop Don Hyling explains the four marks of the Church. The Church is one, united in faith and Baptism. The Church is holy, not because of us, but because God is holy and shares His life with us. The Church is catholic or universal because her embrace extend to the whole world. The Church is based on the witness of the Apostles and this calls us to mission. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. Before seeing this video was there a mark of the Church that you did not understand? 2. The is made up of sinners and fallen human beings. How can we say she is “holy?” 3. Why are the four marks of the Church the “foundation” of the Catholic Church? 4. The same apostles who were friends with Jesus were the first leaders of the Catholic Church. Why is this significant? 5. Hundreds of martyrs have died for their belief in Jesus Christ and His Church. Often, when encouraged by their executioners to renounce their faith, they recited the words of the Creed. How does that impact your conviction in your own profession of faith? SEND Let’s close with everyone standing and together reciting the Nicene Creed: I believe in one God, the Father almighty, He ascended into heaven maker of heaven and earth, and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
