CHAPTER 13 REVIEW

The Transfiguration is the revelation of Jesus in glory to the Apostles: Peter, James and John.
The Greatest Commandment “You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.” (Matthew 22:37-40)
Morality - living in right relationship with God, yourself and others. Putting your beliefs into action.
Beatitudes - teachings of Jesus that show the way to true happiness and tell the way to live in God’s Kingdom now and always.
Charity- the theological virtue of love. It directs us to love God above all things and our neighbor as ourselves, for the love of God.
Precepts of the Church - some of the minimum requirements given by Church leaders for deepening your relationship with God and the Church. The Precepts are listed on page 317 of our textbook.

Chapter 14 Overview

The prophets teach us about the relationship between peace and justice.
Justice is giving what is due to God and others.
Natural Moral Law is the understanding that God places in every human heart.
Social sins are the unjust structures that can occur as the result of personal sin.

PAGE 200-201

What does it mean to act justly?
Natural moral law expresses the God-given human dignity or inner worth, of all persons. Anything that robs us of that dignity is unjust.
Justice means giving God and other people what is due to them
Virtue - good spiritual habits that strengthen you and enable you to do what is right and good. They develop over time with our practice and openness to God’s grace.
Grace - God’s free, loving gift of his own life and help to do what he calls us to do.
The Beatitudes are eight blessings recounted by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount in the Gospel of Matthew

PAGE 202-203

Peace - state of calm or harmony when things are in their proper order and people settle problems with kindness and justice
Three Prophets:

Hosea - One day God would heal the sinners and love them freely
Amos - One day God would restore his People, Israel and return them to their land.
Micah - The path to righteousness is simple.

Social sin - unjust structures that can occur as the result of personal sin. One person’s sin can cause others to sin and the sin can spread through a whole society.
Common Good - the good of everyone with particular concern for those who might be most vulnerable to harm.
