Book Description
Over 3 million copies sold! Essential reading for Catholics of all walks of life. Here it is - the first new Catechism of the Catholic Church in more than 400 years, a complete summary of what Catholics around the world commonly believe. The Catechism draws on the Bible, the Mass, the Sacraments, Church tradition and teaching, and the lives of saints. It comes with a complete index, footnotes and cross-references for a fuller understanding of every subject. The word catechism means "instruction" - this book will serve as the standard for all future catechisms. Using the tradition of explaining what the Church believes (the Creed), what she celebrates (the Sacraments), what she lives (the Commandments), and what she prays (the Lord's Prayer), the Catechism of the Catholic Church offers challenges for believers and answers for all those interested in learning about the mystery of the Catholic faith. The Catechism of the Catholic Church is a positive, coherent and contemporary map for our spiritual journey toward transformation.

Not illustrated. 1850 edition. Excerpt: ...relative personally to S. Paul may we glean from this Epistle?--That in addition to his having trials and persecutions, he was of weak appearance, and, like Moses (Exodus iv. 10), .poor in speech, and had, moreover, some unknown bodily infirmity, (x. 10; xi. 23--30; xii. 7.) How does the Apostle conclude his letter?--He affectionately, yet firmly, cautions them against their former faults, and ends with a solemn benediction in the Name of the Holy Trinity, (xii. 15, 20; xiii. 2, 10, 14.) S. PAUL'S EPISTLE TO THE GALATIANS. Who were the Galatians?--A people of Asia, some of whom afterwards settled in France, and were called Gauls. (Acts xvi. 6.) What seems one object of this Epistle?--To reprove them for certain errors of doctrine and practice into which they had been seduced. (i. 6; iii. 1: v. 7--12.) To what does the Apostle direct their attention as the peculiar privilege and object of their conversion to the Gospel?--To their adoption as sons of God (iv. 5, 6), the destruction of the works of the flesh (v. 16--21), and the bringing forth the fruits of the Spirit, (v. 22, 25.) THE EPISTLE TO THE EPHESIANS. Who were the Ephesians?--The inhabitants of the great and wealthy city of Ephesus. (Acts xix.) What is the object of this Epistle?--It does not appear to have any special object, but contains the most edifying instruction upon various points of Christian doctrine and practice. How does the Apostle impress upon the Ephesians the duty of endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace?--By reminding them that there is one Loud, one Faith, one Baptism, and that our Loud is Head of the Church which is His body, and we members of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones, (iv. 5; i. 22, 23; v. 30.)

To Be a Christian

Pages : 116
Book Description
Catechesis is an ancient practice of Christian disciple making that uses a simple question-and-answer format to instruct new believers and church members in the core beliefs of Christianity. To Be a Christian, by J. I. Packer and a team of other Anglican leaders, was written to renew this oft-forgotten tradition for today’s Christians. With over 360 questions and answers, plus Scripture references to support each teaching, this catechism covers the full range of Christian doctrine and life, drawing from the Apostles’ Creed, the Lord’s Prayer, the Ten Commandments, and other important doctrinal summaries. Clear, concise, and conversational, this resource was written for all believers who seek to be grounded more deeply in the truth of God’s Word.
