MIDTERM_REFLECTION PAPER 1.2 FREEDOM, SIN, AND GRACE
1. What is the main idea of the topic?
Answer: The Main idea of this topic is that the Freedom, Conscience and Grace would help the Christian Community to achieve the Catholic Morality. It has been said that the Catholic faith commitment is not about being forced into servitude or obedience to a Monarchical God, but using one’s freedom to respond to and commit to the relationship being offered by a gracious, loving and just God. These three aspects of Catholic Moral Theology would serve as our guidance and our rights as a Son of God. We have freedom in everything that we do, but to morally good, our conscience was there to enlightened us and would warn us to not to do unethical and immoral act towards other people. By doing such thing, we can follow the path of our saviour Jesus Christ and we can receive His biggest blessings, the grace of Christ is not something that we can achieve easily, for the Grace of the Lord is only given to those who believed in God, and to those who follow the Catholic Moral Theology.
2. What is the implication/importance of the topic as a Josenian Student?
Answer: As a Josenian Student, it is very much important to give importance to our Freedom, Conscience and Grace. By studying this topic, it would enlighten our mind to be morally good towards other people. We have freedom in everything that we do, but we are a Josenian student so we limit ourselves to do such things that could harm other people. Since the Josenian community surrounds us, our conscience would remind our purpose in school, that we should study instead of partying and that we should follow the rules and regulations in school to avoid any sanctions from SAO. To be in this Catholic School also help us to easily achieve the Grace of the Lord. Therefore, we should give importance to this topic because this is one way to have a peace and harmonious relationship with Josenian Community, and to achieve the Catholic Morality
