Objective: Students will learn about Jesus Christ and God’s plan of salvation. They will understand:

  • That God created humans with free will so they could freely choose to love Him, and that sin entered the world when this gift was misused.
  • That Jesus Christ is the Son of God, true God and true man, sent by the Father to restore our broken relationship with Him.
  • That Jesus freely accepted suffering and death on the Cross out of love for humanity and to save us from sin.
  • That Jesus foretold His suffering, death, and Resurrection, showing that He is the true Messiah promised from the time of the Fall.
  • That Jesus rose from the dead on the third day, proving His victory over sin and death and opening the gates of Heaven.
  • That many witnesses saw the risen Jesus and shared the truth of the Resurrection, even at great personal cost.
  • That Jesus ascended into Heaven and sent the Holy Spirit at Pentecost to guide and strengthen the Church.
  • That through Jesus’ Resurrection, we are invited to choose faith, follow Him each day, and walk the path that leads to eternal life with God in Heaven.
