Lesson 1 Flashcards
The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.
John 10:10 WEB
1)I amthe true vine,and my Father is the gardener.
2)He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit,while every branch that does bear fruithe prunesso that it will be even more fruitful.
3)You are already clean because of the words I have spoken to you.
4)Remain in me, as I also remain in you.No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.
5)“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit;apart from me, you can do nothing.
John 15:1-5
So I say, walk by the Spirit,and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.17For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh.They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever[a]you want.18But if you are led by the Spirit,you are not under the law.
19The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality,impurity and debauchery;20idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions21and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like.I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
22But the fruitof the Spirit is love,joy, peace,forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

1st sin of humanity
Disobedience
God, in His wisdom and goodness, created the universe and called humanity to share in His divine life through Jesus Christ. This calling formed the Church, God’s “family,” which has been gradually prepared throughout history, from the beginning of the world through Israel’s story, and fully revealed with the coming of the Holy Spirit. The Church will ultimately be perfected at the end of time.

To stay close to Jesus Christ, we should follow His teachings, pray often, love and be kind to others, and forgive. We need to trust Him, obey His rules, and ask for His help in our lives. By having faith, worshipping, and doing good things, we keep our connection with Jesus strong.
How do we consider the Church as a gift of God to us?
We think of the Church as a gift from God because it helps us come together as a community. It gives us a place to worship, pray, and learn about God. The Church offers support and guidance, helping us grow in faith and stay close to God and each other. It’s a special part of our spiritual life.
What is the point of the story of Moses in the Bible?
Even if we are not faithful to God, He stays faithful to us. His love and care never change. God keeps His promises and always supports us, no matter what. Even if we make mistakes or drift away, He always welcomes us back and remains loyal and true, never giving up on us.
As a Church ,what is the call of God for all of us?
As a Church, God calls us to love one another, follow Jesus, and share His message with others. We should help people in need, support each other, and live our faith each day. The Church helps us grow spiritually and work together to make the world a better place by living out God’s love and teachings.
