Catechism: Know What We Believe

Posted By reynor | Filed Under Catechism, Quotes & Excerpts 

I will try to post, on a regular basis, some articles from the Catechism of the Catholic Church.  I hope that this will encourage us all to rediscover this wonderful gift given to us by the Church.  Here’s the maiden post.   -Reynor

Article II “I Know Whom I Have Believed”
To believe in God alone

150. Faith is first of all a personal adherence of man to God. At the same time, and inseparably, it is a free assent to the whole truth that God has revealed. As personal adherence to God and assent to his truth, Christian faith differs from our faith in any human person. It is right and just to entrust oneself wholly to God and to believe absolutely what he says. It would be futile and false to place such faith in a creature. (Jer 17:5-6; Ps 40:5; Ps 146:3-4)
