MR 5.C Marks of the Church

The video explains what the four marks of the Church are: One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic. It explains that as One, the Church is unified. We are together, and that, although we are different, we are the same in God and the Church. The video explains that the Church is Holy, not because we are Holy, but because God is and Christ is. Jesus built the foundation of the Church, and He is Holy so the Church is Holy. The Church is Catholic because the Church is universal. In all corners of the globe, the Church can be found. The Church is Apostolic because of the authority that Jesus gave the apostles, and the authority that the apostles pass down to the bishops, and the Popes. 

MR 5F The Last Things

Idea sketch explaining section 5F, the last things. Describes how we can gain entrance to heaven. Also explains how heaven was opened through Christ. Describes how embracing Christ can only happen in this life, and how we are judged by God when we die.

MR 5.F Problem Solving

The story is about a man who rejected God and bragged about it. Before he died of cancer, he turned to God and met with a priest multiple times. One possibility is that he talks to a priest just in case. He is basically doubting himself. The next possibility is that he honestly realizes how he has been living wrong and he seeks out faith. He has a change of heart. He could have tried to confess all he could. If he was saved, though, he would not go directly to Heaven. Instead, he would go to purgatory to be fully cleansed. It is possible that the man was baptized or received the sacrament of Anointing of the Sick on his deathbed. But it is also possible that he was not baptized nor anointed when he began meeting with the priest. This ties back to our section because it ties back to our seven Sacraments. If he was baptized, anointed, and went through penance, then he went through true retribution and conferred to the Church.

MR 5.E Teaching and Sanctifying Grace

All of our sins, past, present, and future, are not fully forgiven once we become Christians. In fact Matthew 6:12 states "And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debters." Minor sins can be confessed directly through prayer but mortal sins must be forgiven through the act of penance or reconciliation. Only God has the power to forgive sins but after Jesus' resurrection He passed on his mission and his authority to the apostles to forgive sins "As the Father has sent me, even so I send you.... Recieve the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any they are forgiven." The sacrament of Reconnciliation is only required for mortal sins because Christ commanded it. Although Reconciliation has changed throughout the years, the basics of the sacrament are the same.
