Study Notes

Characteristics of Christian Faith

Christian faith must be informed, especially to the Catholic Faith, believing in Jesus' words and teachings, and trusting that he has the words of eternal life.
Christian faith must be communitarian, transmitted through the Church, Sacred Scripture, and living Tradition, making possible an adequate faith-response.

Inculturated Faith

Christian faith, especially Catholic faith, is never separated from the typical Filipino faith in family and friends, living out faith in God precisely in daily relationships.
Faith in God calls for a total and absolute adherence, as exemplified by Christ's Passion, Death, and Resurrection.

Trinitarian Faith

Christian faith, especially Catholic faith, is the adherence to the Triune God revealed through Jesus Christ, our friendship with Christ and the Father, in the Holy Spirit.

Loving, Maturing, and Missionary Faith

Christian faith is truly life-giving and mature only through love, which must be inseparably love of God and love of neighbor, like Christ's.
Missionary work is essential, and the missionary spirit is the test of authentic faith, bearing witness and proclaiming Christ's Word and Kingdom.

Total and Absolute Faith

Faith is a complete trust or confidence in someone or something, or a strong belief in the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual conviction rather than proof.
Christian faith is never just private or individualistic, but a sharing in the Christian community's faith, united to all Catholic communities.
