Notes to the Teacher
This lesson will give the learners the idea on how they will
examine the brief history, core teachings, fundamentals belief,
practices, and doctrines of Christianity.
What’s New
This Bible verse among many is the most popular one as it also encapsulates
the whole Christian doctrine as well as the mission of Christ in the salvation of the
“For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who
believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.” John 3:16
7
What is It
According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church (John Paul II 1994), “the
word ‘Christ’ comes from the Greek translation of the Hebrew Messiah, which means
‘anointed’.” It became the name proper to him for he accomplished the divine mission
that being the “Christ” signifies. He is referred to as the Son of God who signifies his
unique and eternal relationship with the Father.
Christians believe that there is only one God in three Divine Persons namely, God
the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ), and God the Holy Spirit. This, therefore,
means that Christianity is also a monotheistic religion. God is believed to be all-
powerful, all-knowing, all-present, and all-good. He is eternal, merciful and
compassionate. (Ong and Jose 2016)
Moreover, Christ is the Word who became flesh (John 1:14). Christians also believe
that He is true God and true Man. According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church
(CCC) 464 (John Paul II 1994), “He became truly man by remaining truly God.” In
his teachings, he would always refer himself as the Son of the Father, the Good
Shepherd, the Bread of Life, etc. His teachings are also his way of life.

SYMBOLS
The cross is the most significant symbolism in
Christianity. It is the very symbol of Christ’s victory
when he died on the cross to save mankind. (Ong and
Jose 2016) Dove is also used by Christians as a
symbol of peace. More so, dove also symbolizes the
Holy Spirit. The Gospels portray in Jesus’s Baptism
“when the Holy Spirit came upon him like a dove.”
Fish has also been used by the early Christians when
they were meeting in secret during the time of
persecution. It has a secret meaning deriving from the

MAJOR DIVISIONS IN CHRISTIANITY
Roman Catholicism
Manaloto and Rapadas (2016) mentioned, the English word “catholic” has its
roots from the Greek adjective katholikos which means “universal”. Initially, the term
was used to emphasize the scope of the Christian community. According to Canon
205 of the 1983 Code of Canon Law, Roman Catholic Christians are “Those baptized
who are fully in the communion of the Catholic Church on this earth and who are joined
with Christ in its visible structure by the bonds of the profession of faith, the seven
sacraments, and the ecclesiastical governance.”
Eastern Orthodoxy
Protestantism
In the 16th century, political struggles and corruption in the Church in the
West led to the upheaval known as the Protestant Reformation, which initiated the
founding of several new streams of Christian tradition. (Manaloto and Rapadas 2016)

What I Can Do
11Jesus continued: “There was a man who had two sons. 12 The younger one
said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So, he divided his
property between them.
13 “Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a
distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living. 14 After he had spent
everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he began to be in
need. 15 So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him
to his fields to feed pigs. 16 He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs
were eating, but no one gave him anything.
“But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with
compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.
21“The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against
you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’
22 “But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe and put it
on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. 23 Bring the fattened calf
and kill it. Let’s have a feast and celebrate. 24 For this son of mine was dead and is
alive again; he was lost and is found.’ So, they began to celebrate.
25“Meanwhile, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house,
he heard music and dancing. 26 So he called one of the servants and asked him what
was going on. 27 ‘Your brother has come,’ he replied, ‘and your father has killed the
fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.’
28 “The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So, his father went
out and pleaded with him. 29 But he answered his father, ‘Look! All these years I’ve
been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a
young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. 30 But when this son of yours who
has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf
for him!’
15
31 “‘My son,’ the father said, ‘you are always with me, and everything I have
is yours. 32 But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was
dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’”
