MR 5.F Last Things Lecture Video Notes

I learned that even if you are the best, most loving person in the world, but you don't choose God, then you are still doomed to Hell. I also learned that our life is our time to choose, which is a binding decision. You can not make the decision to choose God once you are dead. 

MR.5.F Analysis on judgement

There are two kinds of judgement. Particular, and Final judgement. Final judgement is when god gatherrs everyone together on the final day. Particular judgement is your personal judgement, what God decides about you. Your particular judgement doesn't entail how much you filled a bucket, or how long you have been on Gods side, but what you really believe the moment you die. Humans can change sides on that of which they believe, but for angels it is a one way, eternal ticket. pergatory is the place were a humann is cleasensed from his sin and the effects of the sin. 
    

MR 5.F notes/reflection

In the video I learned that our goal is to get into heaven. When we die we our judged in out particular judgment. We can either receive  heaven, eternal communion with God, Purgatory, temporary purification, or Hell, eternal separation from God. Once the decision has ben made the bodiless soil cannot change that.

MR 5.F Last Things

In the lecture video I learned about judgement, heaven, purgatory, and hell. Final Judgement is when Christ comes back on to the Earth and chooses who goes into Heaven and become in union with God. Particular Judgement is God's decesion to let you into heaven or condemn you in to hell immediatly following your death. Heaven is being in communion with God and it is full of light. We still do not know that much about heaven. Hell is eternal separation from God. It is darkness. Purgatory is the place where you are cleansed of you sins if you have accepted God's salvation. You choose your destiny on Earth. If you chose to be saved by God on Earth then you will be facing the light at you death. If you chose to reject God on Earth then you will be facing darkness. You can not choose to switch where you want to go after death, once you are dead you have sealed you fate. 

In this Analysis, I analyze the analysis of the Final and Particular Judgement. I talk about Purgatory, heaven, and hell. I explain the means of purgatory. I talk about the specific known characteristics of heaven and hell. Finally I talk about what happens at your death. It is an analysis because it goes beyond the obvious and analyzes another analysis.

MR 5.E Analysis on the 7 Sacraments

 This is an analysis becuse we are demonstrating how each sacrament relatates to its scripture counterpart. Some people will notice, that we have shaped this analysis in that of a tree, like the Church is the true tree of life. Christ, the sacraments, are at its head. This shows how each sacrament gives us the grace to be redeemed.

MR 5.E Analysis on Teaching and Sanctifying Church

This is an analysis beacause it goes in depth about what the Magisterium and the Apostles are exactly for. Then we connect each sides of the pole with two essential ideas that was deeply analyzed and cleverly thought out. We talk about how the Church influences the Apostles and what the apostles mission is. This is an above and beyond analysis because we do not just put words/sentences in random areas, but symmetrically place them to put more emphases on the importance of each idea. It is color coordinated so it is easy to decipher where each idea is meant to go. 

MR 5.E analysis on Magisterium

This idea sketch analyzes the magisterium and its role in the church. It also shows how the magisterium gives grace through the sacraments with the authority given by God. It is symmetrical and shows the side by side of the magisterium and the sacraments. It then connects the two and how they fit together.

It provides a DEEP understanding of the chapter. It talks about how other religions are not saying the correct things. It uses vibrant colors. We compare and contrast with the text and the lecture. We esablish a n understanding that prevails the common theology student. 

MR 5.D Analysis In Marks of the Church

This idea sketch breaks down the four marks of the Church and explains why the Marks give the Catholic church its identity against the heretical churches. It also proves why this it the true Church. It uses cool colors.

MR 5.D Problem Solving Analysis

The one true church has four marks of the church: one holy catholic
and apostolic church.
The true church is one, united with the triune God, one faith, and one
baptism. The true church distributes holiness straight from God
through the sacraments. If we maintain this life of the sacraments we
are in a life of holiness with the holy God. The true church is
Catholic by name, and is one united mass under the universal kingdom
of God. The true church is apostolic by governance and procedure.
Those today today can trace a straight line back to the original
apostles.

This analysis uses what we learned from the lecture video and the facts provided in the section. It is color coordinated and is linked together. It provides a deeper understanding of the section. It has an analogy to help understand the section even more.  

MR 5.C Problem Solving Analysis

If ye be on a team of football, ye may go out for a pass, but nay ye
turneth, the ball ye shan't recieve. Thus, ye may be on the team, ye
may believe ye shall catch the ball, nary we recieve unless ye turn
around. Yer quarterback may be out of pocket, and takin many-a-risk,(
the sacrifice jesus gave in his passion, death, resurcetion.) but nay
ye turneth, ye shall fail. The game be lost, all is
for-naught, unless ye turn ye back to the scoundrel defender, and open
up to jesus. If ye be a runnin back, jesus hands ye the ball and opens
a hole, but ye chose not to run in the right dircetion, ye be
clobbered for negtive yardage. OOFF. If ye be the scrum in u'rugbee,
ye need to scuenche ye cheeks and push forward into the pile of men.
If y' dununt y' thrun on the grund. The ultimate QB. -5000 passin
yard's!!!! over 9000 rushin
yards, and a whole leage OF TOUCHDOWNS! And a blackbeard trophy to his
name. arg. and he be pourin the cup of gaterade over ye head. En ze
namen uv godt amenz.


This is an analysis because we are giving an analogy that adequately explains this concept. The cconcept, that we have to accept God to be in his grace, is the topic we analyzed. We analyzed it by providing an anaolgy for it that involves a common event in todays culture. This also contains important theological teachings.

MR 5.A Analysis on the Pentecost

This article relates to our courses because its main focus is that baptism is neccessary to get the grace from the Resurrection. Although Baptism by water is the most common form of baptism, other forms exist like the baptism by blood, which occures when a non Christianity dies for Christianity. The other form of Baptism is the Baptism of desire, which means you are able to participate in God's grace if you have a deep longing for it. Another way of Baptism, through God's mercy, is the saving of infants who haven't been baptised, because the cannot make knowledgable descisions for themselves. Baptism removes the stain of Original sin, meaning we can be saved and enter heaven. However, it does not remove concupisense, the inclination to sin. All of this ties into the Pentecost because the Apostles encountered a different kind of baptism, that of fire, which is a symbol of the Holy Spirit,, meaning the Holy Spirit was present at the Pentecost. The flames of the will of God inspired them to go out and make disciples of all nations, which they did, baptising thousands on that very day. All of these are related to our chapters and lectures. 

This is an analysis because I go in to why we don't need water for baptism, we only need the will to be Baptised. I explain why infants can be saved even though they don't have the ability to make descisions for themselves. I also explain how the Holy Spirit was at Pentecost. All of these make this blog an analysis on why this article on the necessity of baptism ad how it pertains to our coursework. 

MR 5.A Ascension and Pentecost




This is an analysis because we connect a variety of points on why we need the apostles and sacraments even after the Paschal Mystery. We use outside sources as an aid. We also use our prior knowledge to incorporate into our idea sketch. We analyze the essential parts of each sacrament and the apostles. We answer the question why? not just state obvious facts. 

MR.5.A Analysis on the Pentecost

In this blog we go step by step through the chapters rememberign the big picture and look for the connection to baptism. We delve into all we know about the subject in an attempt to please the game master. time for a filler-sentence. I hope you enjoy the huge puzzle that is this analysis. 



Big Picture: Without baptism, we cannot participate in the grace that comes from the resurection. While water is the most common physical meidum of baptism,  any baptism, wether by water or not, is official and essential to our spiritual journey. Almost all holy actions that disciples everywhere perform, could be considered a baptism if they do not recieve a physical one. In the first chapter we encountered origional sin, and through baptism the stain of which is removed. through the baptism we send out satan, and enter God's kinngdom set up in the Old Testament covanents covered In chapter two. In chapter three jesus set an example for us to follow one of which was baptism. Christ saved us by sanctifying the practice of baptism as we learned in chapter four. In chapter five we realize that through baptism we become one leap closer to christ.
