The Catholic Faith Handbook

For Christians a creed is a type of prayer that summarizes the beliefs of our faith - the things God has revealed.

Jesus said that if we cannot work spectacular miracles, we clearly do not have faith

Original Sin has no effect on our ability to believe, love, or have faith.

Believing in God requires also believing in Christ, because Christ is the ultimate sign of God's love for us.

True faith does not require belonging to a church.

The Church provides the human mechanism for passing on and safeguarding God's Revelation

We need the support and encouragement of other believers to help us live the Gospel message

The Church teaches that it is the only Christian community with gifts to offer the world

Faith is made possible because God first gives us the grace to believe

Faith gives us a preview of what Heaven is like.
