We have now reached the end of the section in the Catechism of the Catholic Church about faith and we learn some of the key points about faith that is taught by the Catholic Church.
The one thing we learn is that faith is both a work of God's grace and a true response by us that is not forced upon us. We are not robots. We choose whom we will serve.

The One Faith

Is there a singular faith that all can come to? The Catholic answer is yes. Not because all faiths lead to the same destination, but because there is one faith, one religion that is the truth. Period.
Many will balk at this because they believe in the right of an individual to believe whatever they want because of the so-called similarities of every religion, but that would be like talking about the similarities of a plane flight instead of knowing the destination.

Part of the Greater

No one is an island. We need each other. Not just to live, but also to live out the faith and reach heaven as well. We receive the Catholic faith from others, just like we are born of a mother and father naturally. Understanding that our faith, while a personal act, is part of a greater whole, we grow in the love of God as children in a family as God intends.

In the ancient world hospitality is a very important thing. Without it, you might not survive living as a nomad in the desert like Abraham. But we get a strange message about hospitality when we come to the gospel account of Martha and Mary. For we are told that Mary did something better than just being hospitable. But what was it?

In a political climate that seems to want to force a particular worldview on you, it is a good reminder that the Christian faith is something you can reject ... and face the consequences for rejecting if you choose to.

Immanuel Kant described religious faith as something that binds an individual into slavery and a childish way of thinking. This is the attitude among many who graduate college and believe they are independent thinkers because they see faith as an irrational thought structure instead of a logical belief is something real. Yet, today, as we find out from the Catechism of the Catholic Church, this is not the truth.

Faith Reacts To Grace
Thursday Jul 18, 2019

When we believe, it is because grace made it so. Faith comes by hearing, and hearing and hearing .... the Word of God. Who was with God in the beginning and was God Himself.
Faith reacts to grace. Grace reveals God and we believe not because of the reasons why, but because we see Christ ... we see the face of God.

How we relate to God is faith. Faith is simply how we know Him as the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
