S                                  alone, F                            alone, G                        alone (predestination)

How are we saved

Catholic View: A ________________ that Requires ________________ and ______________________

“The Council of Trent describes the process of salvation from sin in the case of an adult with great minuteness (Sess. VI, v-vi).  It begins with the grace of God which touches a sinner's heart, and calls him to repentance. This grace cannot be merited; it proceeds solely from the love and mercy of God. Man may receive or reject this inspiration of God, he may turn to God or remain in sin. Grace does not constrain man's free will.  Thus assisted the sinner is disposed for salvation from sin; he believes in the revelation and promises of God, he fears God's justice, hopes in his mercy, trusts that God will be merciful to him for Christ's sake, begins to love God as the source of all justice, hates and detests his sins.  This disposition is followed by justification itself, which consists not in the mere remission of sins, but in the sanctification and renewal of the inner man by the voluntary reception of God's grace and gifts, whence a man becomes just instead of unjust, a friend instead of a foe and so an heir according to hope of eternal life. This change happens either by reason of a perfect act of charity elicited by a well disposed sinner or by virtue of the Sacrament either of Baptism or of Penance according to the condition of the respective subject laden with sin. The Council further indicates the causes of this change. By the merit of the Most Holy Passion through the Holy Spirit, the charity of God is shed abroad in the hearts of those who are justified.” (Mass)

Lutheran View: By ________ through ___________ alone NOT by ____________

“Lutherans believe that salvation was made possible 100% by the work of Jesus Christ.  This gives rise to the Lutheran phrase "Christ alone!". Lutherans believe that we are saved by God's mercy and forgiveness and not by works of righteousness to atone for our past or even by a personal action of deciding to follow Jesus.  Rather, the work is entirely God's.  This gives rise to the Lutheran phrase of ‘Grace alone!’” (Rev. David D. Reedy, 2005 – 2008)

The Sacraments Baptism

Catholic View:  Removes _________________________ (needed for salvation)

Code of Cannon Law BAPTISM (Cann. 849 - 878)

“Can.  849 Baptism, the gateway to the sacraments and necessary for salvation by actual reception or at least by desire, is validly conferred only by a washing of true water with the proper form of words. Through baptism men and women are freed from sin, are reborn as children of God, and, configured to Christ by an indelible character, are incorporated into the Church.” (Copyright © Libreria Editrice Vaticana)

The Sacraments Baptism  

Lutheran View : A ___________ of God to give us ______________  (expected of all believers)

“To be sure, faith alone is the instrument by which we receive the salvation won by Christ. But the Gospel and sacraments (Baptism and the Lord's Supper) are God's instruments through which He engenders [creates] saving faith in us--indeed, a miracle. Thus, there is no contradiction between saying faith alone saves, but that this faith comes to us through means or vehicles. (Eph. 3:6).” (The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod.)

The Sacraments Lord’s Supper

Catholic View: A continual __________________ of Jesus needed for the life of the Church (an obligation)

Code of Cannon Law THE MOST HOLY EUCHARIST (Cann. 897 - 958)

“Can.  897 The most August sacrament is the Most Holy Eucharist in which Christ the Lord himself is contained, offered, and received and by which the Church continually lives and grows. The eucharistic sacrifice, the memorial of the death and resurrection of the Lord, in which the sacrifice of the cross is perpetuated through the ages is the summit and source of all worship and Christian life, which signifies and effects the unity of the People of God and brings about the building up of the body of Christ. Indeed, the other sacraments and all the ecclesiastical works of the apostolate are closely connected with the Most Holy Eucharist and ordered to it.

Can.  898 The Christian faithful are to hold the Most Holy Eucharist in highest honor, taking an active part in the celebration of the most august sacrifice, receiving this sacrament most devoutly and frequently, and worshiping it with the highest adoration. In explaining the doctrine about this sacrament, pastors of souls are to teach the faithful diligently about this obligation.”(Copyright © Libreria Editrice Vaticana)

Lutheran View : Christ _________________ but not a sacrifice _______________ forgiveness

“Lutherans have rejected any understanding of the Lord's Supper as a sacrificial act on our part, holding that it is purely God's gift through which He acts to impart His forgiveness and strength to communicants. With respect to Baptists, usually Baptists understanding the Lord's Supper as a symbolic act, including the elements of bread and wine as symbolizing Christ's presence--in contrast to the Lutheran position that Christ's true body and blood are present in, with, and under the external elements of bread and wine.”(The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod.)
