RCIA - For Adults - Life in Christ - Chapter 7 with 'Certificate of Completion'
The goal of the RCIA - for Adults program is exposure to the entire content of the faith. In this chapter, students will learn about the First Commandment.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God; all things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. (John 1:1-4)
We are made in and through and with Christ—the life and light of men. As St. Leo the Great said in the 5th century in speaking of the sacrament of Baptism, which makes us Christians and members of Christ’s body, “Never forget that you have been rescued from the power of darkness and brought into the light of the Kingdom of God.”
The truth is, we desperately need Christ our Lord whose life and love rescues us from the power of darkness; therefore, it’s essential that we live our life in him.
But what does it mean to live one’s life in Christ? How is it possible? And why is it essential to do so?
In this section of the program, titled “Life in Christ,” we explore and answer those questions and more.
In this series of lessons, you’ll learn about the third pillar of the faith as it’s presented in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Here are some of the topics covered:
