MR 5.F Analysis on Particular Judgement

Particular Judgement is the idea that when we die, we are either inclined towards God, or we reject him in our last moments. At the moment of our judgement, we are judged by God based on our choice to love him or reject him. The choice for humanity is simple, yet difficult. On a spectrum, we are very dark from Original Sin, but at Baptism we are shot into the light. However, during our lifetime we go through fluctuating movement in our faith, and trave constantly from dark to light and light to dark. Contrarily, angels make one decision to darkness or light. If God is pure light, and absented of darkness then he pours out his grace and mercy and a just judge, and therefore judges us justly depending on whether we choose to face him or reject him at Particular Judgement. He does not judge us solely on our earthly lives. Our soul, however, still needs a purging of darkness to be in full communion witht the light: a purification of sin and its effect. This state of being, or process, is called Purgatory.

MR 5.D Analysis on Apostolic Succession

Paul says to Timothy, "What you have heard from me before many witnesses, and trust to faithful men wil be able to teach others also." This quote is in reference to the first three generations of Apostolic succession. The Church Fathers regularly looked to apostolic succession to tell whether Catholics or heretics had correct doctrine. This was a solidification of the truth through apostolic succession. The descendents of the Apostles should be highly regarded on doctrines of the Church.

MR 5.C Baptism Analysis

One great point in the article was that Baptism is universally important within all sects of the Christian faith. This same upholding of the value of Baptism for receiving grace is and imperative theme in our section and is highlighted in the article. The Catechism sates: "Those who die for the faith, those who are catechumens, and all those who, without knowing of the Church but acting under the inspiration of grace, seek God sincerely and strive to fulfill his will, are saved even if they have not been baptized,"
Through this quote from the Catechism, the article states the idea that Baptism is necessary for our salvation, however there are other ways to receive Baptism, such as martyrdom. The over-arching idea that contains these ideas is the fact that Baptism is universal and can be received through desire or blood. This same importance of Baptism is also mentioned in Mr. Cole's lecture video, and the article acknowledges Baptism's legitimacy for the Church.

MR 5.A Analysis on the Pentecost

This is an analysis because it properly observes multiple different aspects of Pentacost. It presents the importance of grace and the different types as well. We also analyzed the acts of the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentacost. This is a true analysis.

     There are two types of graces, sanctifying and actual. Sanctifying grace stays within your soul and makes it holy. Sanctifying grace is also a way to get into heaven, to be in communion with God, or have redemption. The Holy Spirit, at Pentecost, gave the disciples this grace, to go and spread the Word of God in different tongues. Actual grace is a supernatural grace that pushes people forward. It does not live in the soul, but is rather in a way external. The Holy Spirit also gave the disciples Actual grace, and propelled them forward, however it did not have as much influence on them as Sanctifying grace. It was influencing them as they were doing their good works. Eternal life is also obtained by the acceptance of Actual grace. Actual grace, as well as Sanctifying grace are necessary for redemption. The Apostles spread this grace through Pentecost, so that others whom they evangelized to would be able to receive the Holy Spirit in many ways such as Baptism. The next section explains that venial sins do not destroy supernatural life and do not lessen it, however mortal sins destroy it ouright. However, mortal sin can be forgiven through redemption, which can be achieved through graces discussed in section 1, spread by the Apostles through the Holy Spirit. 

MR 5.A Analysis on the Pentecost

Grace; What it is (Click here).  Analyze the first couple sections and show how it relates to our sections thus far (highlight Pentecost and its connection with Grace and Redemption.)

However, mortal sin can be forgiven through redemption, which can be achieved through graces discussed in section 1, spread by the Apostles through the Holy Spirit. 

Our analysis described sanctifying adn actual grace, but also related it to Pentecost. We explained to the reader how the Apostles received this grace. Also, we explained venial and mortal sin, and the differences and applied them to daily life and their affects, and went beyond the text on the article. Lastly we explained the influence of the graces through the Holy Spirit. We did not just describe the realtionship of the Holy Spirit and the Apostles at Pentecost but also analyzed how the relationship was beneficial to enable or enhance their works
