The word passion is from the Latin pati, which simply means “to endure” or “to suffer.”
The term passion of Christ has taken on a technical or semi-technical meaning in theology,
referring to the time from Jesus’ prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane to His death on the cross
—the time of His greatest suffering. The passion of Christ is recorded in Matthew 26:36–27:56,
Mark 14:32–15:41, Luke 22:39–23:49, and John 18:1–19:37.
Passion – the sufferings of Christ between the night of the Last Supper and His death.

LEARNING PACKAGE IN CHRISTIAN LIVING 7 1

 Sufferings that Jesus endured for ME

Scripture often highlights the suffering of Christ. Indeed, the crucifixion of Christ is the apex of
human history and the grand theme of the apostles’ teaching: “I resolved to know nothing while I was
with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified” (1 Corinthians 2:2). It is through the passion of Christ
that we are made right with God. It is important to note that Christ’s suffering—His passion—was real. It
is not as though He simply appeared to suffer; He actually suffered and died. When Jesus prayed in
Gethsemane, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me” (Matthew 26:39), He was in
genuine anguish over what He was to suffer (cf. Luke 22:44). When He was beaten and mocked, when
the crown of thorns was pressed on His head, when He was nailed to a cross, when He hung there and
struggled to breathe, He was experiencing genuine, excruciating suffering to pay for our sins. He
endured all that to save those who would trust in Him.

 How do the suffering of Christ save us? Christ saved us not by the physical sufferings taken
separately, but by his perfect love for his Father and for us which was expressed in his sufferings and
death for us. (CCC 599)
 Why did Christ suffer and die? Jesus freely and consciously went to his death to fulfill the mission
he had from his Father. He saw himself fulfilling the Old Testament prophecies by “giving his life in
ransom for the many” (Mk 10:45). (CCC 600)
 How can Jesus’ Suffering and Death save us? Because of His corporate solidarity with us sinners,
Jesus could take away “the sin of the world” (Jn 1:29) as the “Suffering Servant” foretold by the
prophet Isaiah. (CCC 604)

The Scriptures had foretold this divine plan of salvation through the putting to death of
"the righteous one, my Servant" as a mystery of universal redemption, that is, as the ransom
that would free men from the slavery of sin. Citing a confession of faith that he himself had
"received", St. Paul professes that "Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures." In
particular Jesus' redemptive death fulfills Isaiah's prophecy of the suffering Servant. Indeed
Jesus himself explained the meaning of his life and death in the light of God's suffering Servant.
After his Resurrection he gave this interpretation of the Scriptures to the disciples at Emmaus,
and then to the apostles. (CCC 601)

WRAP-UP
Catechism for Filipino Catholics (CFC 557) points out the value of Jesus’ suffering:
St. Paul expresses the core of the “Good News” given him as follows: “For I handed on to
you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with
the Scriptures” (1 Corinthians 15:3; cf. CCC 601). Far from being negative, depressing reality,
the suffering and death of Christ help us “to grasp fully, with all the holy ones, the breadth
and length and height and depth of Christ’s love, and experience this love which surpasses all
knowledge” (Ephesians 3:18-19). The innocent Christ’s personal pain and suffering brings home
to us, in a way nothing else possibly could, the evil and ugliness of sin and its power in creating
poverty, disease, hunger, ignorance, corruption and death. A truly “Christian” sense of sin is a
grace received at the foot of the Cross, within the felt-experience of God’s overwhelming
forgiving Love in Christ Jesus.

To assist your learning and commitment for today, kindly do the following Activities:
