Trinitarian
Of or relating to the Trinity or the doctrine of the Trinity 1. The Church's mission is essentially Tirinitatian, meaning that the work of the Church is the work of the three Divine Persons in the Trinity 2. According to the Father's enternal plan, the Church continues the mission of the Son and the Holy Spirit 3. The ultimate purpose of the Apostles' mission was to cooperate with the Holy Trinity's plan and invite people to share in the communion between the Father and the Son in the Holy Spirit
What is the mission of the Holy Spirit
1. Although Revelation and salvation are the common work of the 3 Divine Persons, the Holy Spirit is the primary agent of the Church's mission a) Over time the Holy Spirit reveals the mission of Christ b) The Church continues Christ's path, and because he shared the Good News with the poor, the Church must also do so c) Following Christ means sharing in his poverty, obedience, service and self sacrifice and even his willingness to sacrifice his life 2. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, the Church carries out its mission to bring all people into union with the Trinity a) because people live in harmony with one another only when they are in union with God, the Church is also a means of creating unity among human beings b) this unity has begun but it will not be complete until sometime in the future 3. The Church is a sign and instrument of the full realization of this unity, that final and eternal perfection in which people will truly be one in union with the Trinity 4. An important step in this mission occurred when the Holy Spirit revealed the Church to the world a) The Holy Spirit inspired the Apostles and other disciples to share the Good News with Jews and Gentiles
How did St. Paul preach to both Jews and Gentiles
1. Although he was called to be the Apostle to the Gentiles at his conversion 2. In his missionary work, Paul always tried to communicate the Gospel to his audience in a way they would best understand 3. Paul was comfortable in the cultural worlds of both Jews and Gentiles 4. Though he was a devout Jew who belonged to the party of the Pharisees, Paul was born and raised in the Hellenistic city of Tarsus in modern-day Turkey and wrote in an excellent Greek style 5. When preaching to a Jewish audience, Paul focused primarily on the Old Testament, explaining to his fellow Jews that the Scriptures prophesied the life, death, and Resurrection of Jesus 6. When he spoke to a Gentile audience, Paul changed his approach a) When he preached to Greeks in Athens, Paul began by relating the Good News to a familiar context b) Paul said that among the many altars set up to worship various gods, such as Zeus and Apollo, he had noticed one altar dedicated to an unknown God, who he proclaimed was the one true God who had created all things and quoted Greek poets to further support his points
What is the relationship between the holy spirit and Christ
1. Although the Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ have possessed a common mission since the beginning of time, the Holy Spirit was fully revealed to us when he poured out on the Church by Jesus at Pentecost a) Jesus did refer to the Holy Spirit in his conversations with the Apostles and in some more public settings but did not fully reveal the Holy Spirit until after his death, Resurrection, and Ascension 2. The mission of Jesus and the Holy Spirit are conjoined and inseparable a) whenever God sends his son, he also sends his Spirit, so when he recite the Nicene Creed, we should see all of Jesus' actions in the second section as a join mission with the Holy Spirit
How does the Holy Spirit build up the Church
1. At Pentecost the Holy Spirit's power to build the Church was made known 2. Once the Apostles had received the Holy Spirit, more than 3,000 people were baptized a) Jesus told his followers they would receive the Holy Spirit, he also told them what to do next b) The mission of the Church is to bring people into communion with the Trinity 3. The Holy Spirit builds individual's faith lives, builds community, and attracts new members to join the Church, which builds the Church's actual numbers
Incarnation
1. At the time appointed by God, Jesus Christ, the eternal Word of the Father, became man and lived among us on earth a) He took on a human nature without losing his divine natures 2. THE MYSTERY OF THE UNION OF DIVINE AND HUMAN NATURES IN ONE DIVINE PERSON
How did Jesus preach the Kingdom of God
1. During his earthly ministry, Jesus inaugurated the Church through his preaching 2. Jesus was drawing on the hope announced by the Old Testament prophets, who looked forward to a coming age when God's will would be done on earth 3. Jesus' message was intended for all people a) yet in a special way, Jesus directed his message to the poor and proclaimed that the nations would be judged on how well they took care of people who were hungry and thirsty b) Jesus also directed his message toward sinners, calling them to repentance and assuring them of the Father's great mercy c) Jesus' message often took the form of parables, which challenged listeners to make the radical choice whether to truly follow him 4. Jesus's listeners learned about the Kingdom not only from his words but also from his actions a) Jesus's miracles and his healings of the sick were signs that the Kingdom had already begun on earth
What did God make human beings for
1. God made human beings to live in harmony with him and with one another a) The church revealed on Pentecost is a means to this communion
Communion
Refers to receiving the Body and Blood of Christ. In general, your companionship and union with Jesus and other baptized Christians in the Church. 1. This union has its origin and high point in the celebration of the Eucharist. 2. In this sense the deepest vocation of the Church is Communion
What are the universal implications of God's call to Israel
1. God's special relationship with Israel was not just about Israel it had a deeper meaning for the rest of the world as well 2. The prophet's proclaimed a future when all nations would gather together with Israel in true worship a) the gathering of the people of Israel foreshadows the future gathering of all nations into one People of God 3. The Israelites, however could not fulfill and were not always faithful to their Covenant with God straying away to worship other gods for example a) the prophet Jeremiah spoke of God's plan for a New Covenant between God and his people
How did Jesus primarily establish the Church
1. Jesus established the Church primarily by the saving gift of himself a) this gift which was fulfilled on the cross was anticipated when Jesus instituted the Eucharist b) Jesus' words, this is my body expressed his complete self giving in handing over his life for the sake of humanity 2. By participating in the Eucharist today, we share in a mystical way, in the Christ's sacrifice and also in the grace that his sacrifice gives the Church a) This sacrament also increases the unity of the People of God and enables us to share in the divine life
Why is the Church governed by a pope and bishops?
1. Jesus set up this structure himself 2. He appointed the 12 apostles as leaders of the community gathered around him and he gave Peter a special role as the head 3. In order to build the Church and to proclaim the faith, Christ sent out his Apostles, giving them a share in his own mission a) he gave them and those who have succeeded them, the power to act in his place b) the bishops are the Apostles successors, and the Pope, the Bishop of Rome, is the successor of Peter 4. This structure and hierarchy of the Church established by Christ continues to this day and will remain until the Kingdom is fully established at the end of time 5. Jesus' choice of 12 Apostles reflects the 12 Tries of Israel, God's chosen people a) This aspect of Jesus' inauguration of the Church recalls the Jewish hope that someday the 12 tries scattered in exile, would be gathered together again

What familiar imagery does Paul use to preach to different audiences
1. Paul used examples suitable to his largely urban audience including a) athletes competing in a stadium b) military armor and weapons c) musical instruments such as gongs and cymbals and temples 2. Paul's ways of presenting the faith changed with his audience, but he never changed the truths of the faith a) effective evangelization includes a presentation that is appropriate for those who are learning or listening, but it does not distort the message
In God's plan of salvation, what does Pentecost mark?
1. Pentecost marked the beginning of the Church's mission of earth, when the Apostles were able to begin their work of evagelization and to baptize in Jesus' name a) No longer present on earth in the same way as before his death and Resurrection, Christ now lived and acted in the world through his Church b) In this way, and trough his sending of the Holy Spirit, Jesus fulfilled his promise to his disciples "I am with you always, until the end of the age
What are the extraordinary charisms
1. Some of the Holy Spirit's Gifts are extraordinary, involving spiritual powers beyond normal human abilities 2. A person's extraordinary charism of healing might be visible to others through a miraculous cure that has no scientific explanation 3. Speaking in tongues is also one
What did Jesus have to do to help him establish the Kingdom of God
1. TO help him establish the Kingdom of God, the father gathered people to become Jesus' first followers 2. Jesus sent out these disciples to preach the Kingdom and to make disciples of the nations, calling all people to join Christ's Church a) This group of followers, his disciples, became the Church, Jesus' true family, and the seed and beginning of the Kingdom on earth 3.

Who are the Church's charism of leadership
1. The Church has charisms of leadership, but these are Gifts of the Holy Spirit that enable a leader to provide benefit to the whole Church 2. In his discussion on gifts, Paul says that God has designated believers to be Apostles, prophets, teachers, administrators, and assistants 3. The founders of religious orders or congregations often have specific charisms that their followers also pursue a) St. Benedict's charism of combining work and prayer has inspired the spiritual life of vowed Benedictines and their associates for centuries b) St Francis's charism of embracing a life of poverty and simplicity inspired thousands to follow in his footsteps 4. As leaders and teachers of the Church, the Pope and the bishops in union with him has the charism of INFALLIBILITY SO THAT THE CHURCH MAY ALWAYS AVOID ERROR IN HER TEACHING ON FAITH AND MORALS
How does the Holy Spirit sanctifies the Church

How does the Holy Spirit animate the church
1. The Holy Spirit animates or gives life to the Church 2. St. Augustine said that what the soul is to the human body, so the Holy Spirit is to the Body of Christ, the Church 3. At Pentecost, tongues as of fire, symbolizing the transforming energy of the Holy Spirit, came upon the disciples 4. This power converted a group of disciples who had been huddling behind closed doors out of fear into bold missionaries, proclaiming their faith in the Risen Christ

What is the meaning of Pentecost
1. You may have heard Pentecost referred to as the birthday of the Church a) This can be misleading if we mean that the Church began on Pentecost b) Recall that the Father and his Son were involved with the Church before the descent of the Holy Spirit on the Apostles 2. The Church was born primarily of Christ's total self giving for our salvation, anticipated when he instituted the Eucharist, and fulfilled on his death on the cross 3. The outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost reveled the Church to the world for the firs time a) The Church itself was not a new entity, as she had been in God's plan from before the world was created 4. On Pentecost, God as the Trinity was fully revealed for the first time a) Jews who followed Jesus at the time of Pentecost worshiped the God of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob and also believed that Jesus was the Divine Son of God the Father 5. The action of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost enabled these Jewish followers to become aware of their encounter with God the Holy Spirit, the Third Divine Person of the Trinity a) For the first time in salvation history, God fully revealed himself as the Blessed Trinity b) This mystery of the Trinity, one God in three Divine Persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is the central mystery of our faith c) God alone can make this mystery known to us

1. The Holy Spirit had a teaching role in the Church a) Jesus told his disciples, He will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you. When he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all truth 2. The Holy Spirit also helps us understand the truths of faith 3. the Holy Spirit also teaches us to pray a) The Spirit too comes to the aid of our weakness, for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit itself intercedes with inexpressible groaning b) When we do not know how to pray, it's good to know that we can call on the Holy Spirit, the master of prayer to help us 4. The Holy Spirit, as the master of prayer, not only intercedes for us but also instructs us in our prayer life, inspiring us to express new forms of the basic types of prayer: blessing, petition, intercession, thanksgiving, and praise 5. the Holy Spirit has been teaching people to pray for thousands of years a) the Holy Spirit operates through Tradition, the living transmission of god's truth to us b) The holy spirit is like a well of living water within the heart of a person who prays, but the holy Spirit also points the praying person to the source of the living water, Jesus Christ c) From the medieval Gregorian chants to the latest praise and worship songs, from the Eucharistic Prayers of the Mass to our own spontaneous prayers before we fall asleep at night, the Holy Spirit is endlessly creative in our prayers

In fulfilling the Law of Sinai, however, Jesus did not abolish it a) instead he revealed its true meaning 4. Jesus thus initiated the New Covenant at the Last Supper "This cup is the new covenant in my blood which will be shed for you
What is God's covenant with Israel
1. The community of Israel foreshadows the Church 2. Just as God chooses us to be saved as part of the Church, so too did God call Israel as a nation to be his Chosen People as part of his larger plan of salvation 3. God called Abraham to leave his own country, promising him that he would father a great nation, Israel 4. Later God made a covenant with him, promising him land for himself and his descendants 5. Still later God entered into the Sinai Covenant a) As the people's part of the Covenant, God gave them his Law through Moses at Mount Sinai a) The Law is summarized in the Ten Commandments 6. Through the covenants, God established a special relationship with Israel as his Holy People
How did Christianity Spread so Quickly
1. The expansion of the Church's mission to include outreach to Gentiles increased the potential audience for evangelization 2. Paul's ability to phase important Christian truths in the Greek language, which enabled people from Greco-Roman culture to understand the faith, also attracted more intellectual members in addition to believers who were less educated 3. The Roman Empire greatly helped the Church in its mission a) The empire was large and unified and had a good road system for travel b) It also provided a certain level of protection from bandits and other threats c) By the fourth century, scholars estimate that approximately 10% of the people in the Roman Empire were Christian d) Later in the same century, when the conversation of the Emperor Constantine made Christianity the official religion of the empire, missionaries took the Good News to additional places such as southern Europe, parts of the Balkans, the eastern Mediterranean, and northern Africa e) Later centuries brought Christianity to northern Europe and the British Isles

Jesus provided the Apostles with a significant charge when he said to make disciples of all nation
Why is half the bible composed of events that happened before Christ was born
1. The reason is that the Old Testament still has enormous value 2. Together with the New Testament, it hands on God's revelation and makes known to us his plan of salvation 3. The old testament records the history of salvation from Creation through God's Covenant with the Israelites, which foreshadows and prepares for the Church
Why did the Apostles and early disciples travel so far and work so hard to spread the Good News
1. The universal love of God, who desires that all be saved, provided the motivation and energy for the Apostles and early disciples to travel throughout the known world sharing the truth of the Gospel with those who would listen 2. The Church needed to be missionary so as to share the truth that many people already longed for
What is life like ignoring the Holy Spirit
1. We may know about the transforming power of the Holy Spirit, but we have the free will to ignore him and live according to the flesh 2. The Apostles Paul contrasted a holy life lived according to the power of the Holy Spirit with a life lived according to the flesh 3. A person who lives according to the flesh focuses on immediate gratification of his or her own needs a) As a result, this person's life will be filled as Paul said with hatred, jealousy, lack of self control, and selfishness b) According to Paul, this person may well abuse alcohol and be sexually promiscuous in relationships c) The person who ignores the Holy Spirit is so focused on meeting his or her own immediate desires that he or she has no time to consider other people

Pentecost
The fiftieth day following Easter, which commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit on the early Apostles and disciples 1. After Jesus' Ascension his followers gathered together in Jerusalem at the time of the Feast of Weeks, the Jewish festival also known as Pentecost, which is Greek for 50th as it was celebrated fifty fays after Passover 2. The account in the Acts of the Apostles tells us that suddenly a noise like a strong, driving wind filled he house where Jesus' Apostles were a) Tongues as of fire rested on each one of them and they were filled with the Holy Spirit b) they began to preach i different languages c) A crowd gathered formed of Jews from Egypt, Rome, modern day Turkey, and Iraq, Palestine, and other places who were all in Jerusalem for the Pentecost festival d) Miraculously, each heard the message of the Apostles in his own language e) This multilingual chorus caused some bystanders to think that the Apostles were drunk 3. Peter, the Apostles' leader, clarified that these events were fulfilling Old Testament prophecies, especially the Prophet Joel's words a) Peter explained that the glorified Jesus himself was pouring the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles and enabling them to miraculously speak in such a way that they could be understood by all members of the audience b) Peter instructed his listeners to repent and be baptized so that their sins would be forgiven, so they too would receive the Holy Spirit c) 3,000 people were baptized that day
Infallibility
The gift given by the Holy Spirit to the Pope and the bishop in union with him to teach on matters of faith and morals without error 1. Infallibility extends to the whole of Divine Revelation 2. One way the gift of infallibility is exercised is when the Pope as supreme pastor and teacher, defines a doctrine as infallible a) The most recent infallible teaching was Pope Pius XII's proclamation of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in 1950 3. Another way infallibility is exercised is when the bishops, together when the Pope, agree, especially in an Ecumenical Council on a teaching that all must hold because it is divinely revealed
