The document discusses the Catholic doctrine of the human person as created in the image of God. It covers how humans are placed at the center of creation, endowed with dignity and reason. It addresses the social nature of humanity and equality of men and women. It then discusses the tragedy of original sin and how it separates humanity from God and each other. The document concludes by discussing the universality of both sin and salvation through Jesus Christ, who redeems all of creation.

This might help you to inform your mates about the sacrament of holy orders. This might be more efficient to be your report and it'll impress your teacher. If you'll like this, a big hand for you. God Bless you more! <3
" Whose is this image and superscription? " — Matt.
22 : 20.
THE Pharisees near the end of Jesus' life
tried to ensnare Him by an awkward
question regarding tribute. The Master
eluded their snare by calling attention to a
legal relation already established between the
Jews and Caesar, which was witnessed by their
use of Roman money. Csesar's right must
therefore be acknowledged, as must every
other of similar nature. '* Render, therefore,
unto Csesar the things that are Caesar's; and
unto God the things that are God's." The
principle here appealed to by Jesus is one of
wide application. Relations establish duties.
The image and superscription are a constant
reminder both of relation and of duty.

This is a study of Jesus as our Redeemer. He saves us from evil and wickedness that we might be agents of His in doing good works, thus making the world a better place.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

3. 108. The fundamental of Sacred
Scripture proclaims that the human
person is a creature of God, and sees
in his being in the image of God the
element that characterizes and
distinguishes him.
• God places the human creature at the center and summit of the created
order.
•Being in the image of God the human individual possesses the dignity of
a person, who is not just something, but, someone. He is capable of selfknowledge, self-possession, and of freely giving himself and entering into
communion with other persons. Further, he is called to by grace to a
covenant with his Creator, to offer him a response of faith and love that
no other creature can give in his stead.
4. 109. The likeness with God shows that the
essence and existence of man are
constitutively related to God in the most
profound manner.
• The whole of man’s life is a quest and a search for God.
• This relationship with God can be ignored or even forgotten or
dismissed, but, it can never be eliminated.
•The human being is a personal being created by God to be in relationship
with him; man finds life and self-expression only in relationship, and tends
naturally to God.
5. 110. The relationship between God and
man is reflected in the relational and
social dimension of human nature.
• Man, in fact, is not a solitary being, but, a social being and unless he
relates himself to others he can neither live nor develop his potential.
• In this regard the fact that God created humans beings as man and
woman is significant: ‘How very significant is the dissatisfaction which
marks man’s life in Eden as long as his sole point of reference is the
world of plants and animals’.
• In one’s neighbor whether man or woman, there is a reflection of God
himself, the definitive goal and fulfillment of every person.
6. 111. Man and woman have the same
dignity and are of equal value, not only
because they are both created in the
image of God, but, because the dynamic
of reciprocity that gives life to the “we”
in the human couple, is an image of God.
• In a relationship of mutual communion, man and woman fulfill
themselves in a profound way.
•Their covenant of union is presented in Sacred Scripture as an image of
the Covenant of God with man and, at the same time, as a service to
life.
• Indeed, the human couple can participate in God’s act of creation.
7. 112. Man and woman are in relationship
with others above all as those to whom
the lives of others have been entrusted.
• The relationship with God requires that the life of man be considered
sacred and inviolable.
• The fifth commandment: ‘Thou shall not kill’ validates God alone is
Lord of life and death.
8. 113. With this specific vocation to
life, man and woman find themselves
also in the presence of all the other
creatures. They can and are obliged to
put them at their own service and to
enjoy them, but, their dominion over the
world requires responsibility.
• All of creation, in fact, has value and is good in the sight of God, who
is its author.
• Man must discover and respect its value.
•The Book of Genesis teaches that human dominion over the world
consists in naming things. In naming them, man must recognize them
for what they are and establish a relationship of responsibility.
9. 114. Man is also in relationship with
himself and is able to reflect on himself.
• The heart designates man's inner spirituality, what distinguishes him
from every other creature.
• In the end, the heart indicates the spiritual facilities which most
properly belong to man, which are his prerogatives insofar as he is
created in the image of his Creator; reason, the discernment of good
and evil, free will.
11. 115. This marvelous vision of man’s
creation by God is inseparable from the
tragic appearance of original sin.
• Man, against God’s prohibition, allows himself to be seduced by the
serpent and stretches out his hand to the tree of life, falling prey to
death.
• By this, man tries to break through his limits as a creature, challenging
God.
•It is a sin of disobedience that separates man from God.
12. 116. At the root of personal and social
divisions, which in differing degrees
offend the value and dignity of the
human person, there is a wound which is
present in man’s inmost self.
• The consequences of sin, insofar as it is an act of separation from
God, are alienation, that is, the separation of man not only from
God, but, also from himself, from other men, and from the world
around him.
• Reflecting on the mystery of sin, we cannot fail to take into
consideration this tragic connection between cause and effect.
13. 117. The mystery of sin is composed of a
twofold wound which the sinner opens
in his own side and in relationship with
his neighbor. That is why we can speak
of personal and social sin.
• Every sin is personal under a certain aspect; under another, every sin
is social, insofar as and because it also has social consequences.
• Sin is always an act of the person, because it is the free act of a person
and not properly speaking of a group or community.
14. 118. Certain sins, moreover, constitute
by their very object a direct assault on
one’s neighbor. Such sins in particular
are known as social sins.
• Social sin is every sin committed against the justice due in relations
between individual and the community, and also between the
community and the individual.
• Every sin against the common good and its demands, in the whole
broad are of rights and duties of citizens, is also social sin.
15. 119. The consequences of sin perpetuate
the structures of sin. These are rooted in
personal sin and, therefore, are always
connected to concrete acts of the
individuals who commit
them, consolidate them and make it
difficult to remove them.
• These are obstacles and conditioning that go well beyond the actions
and brief life span of the individual and interfere also in the process of
the development of peoples.
• The actions and attitudes opposed to the will of God and the good of
neighbor appear to fall into two categories: ‘the all-consuming desire
for profit and the thirst for power.
17. 120. The doctrine of original sin, which
teaches the universality of sin has an
important foundation.
• This doctrine encourages men and women not to remain in guilt and
not to take guilt lightly.
• The doctrine of the universality of sin, however, must not be
separated from the consciousness of the universality of salvation in
Jesus Christ.
18. 121. Christian realism sees the abysses of
sin, but, in the light of the hope, greater
than any evil, given by Jesus Christ’s act
of redemption, in which sin and death
are destroyed.
• Jesus Christ has always been mankind’s life and light, the light that
enlightens every person.
• God desires in the one mediator, Jesus Christ, the salvation of men
and women.
• In him we are, by God, predestined to be conformed to the image of
his Son, in order that he might be the first-born among many brethren.
19. 122. The new reality that Jesus Christ
gives us is not grafted onto human
nature nor is it added from the outside:
it is rather that reality of communion
with the Trinitarian God to which men
and women have always been oriented in
the depths of their being, thanks to their
creaturely likeness to God.
• Through the Spirit of Jesus Christ, men and women are received as
children of God.
• What mankind has already received is nothing more than a token or a
“guarantee” of what it will receive in its fullness only in the presence of
God; guarantee of eternal life.
20. 123. The universality of this hope
includes, besides the men and women of
all peoples, heaven and earth.
• All creation, together indeed with humanity, awaits the Redeemer.
•Subjected to futility, creation reaches out full of hope, with groans and
birth pangs, longing to be freed from decay.
