The Human Person The Catholic Faith Handbook for Youth, Third Edition Document #: TX Chapter 6

God’s Infinite Love Copyright: Kevin Carden / Every human person has infinite value in God’s plan. God loves every person without exception. God’s love doesn’t depend on what we’ve done or how we feel.

Copyright: Monkey Business Images / Made in the Image of God Human beings are the crown of God’s Creation. Made in the image of God, we have special gifts and capabilities that go beyond all other creatures. Humans have self-awareness and self-knowledge. Humans are capable of knowing God and freely returning God’s love.

Copyright: firewings / Our soul is the spiritual principle that animates our spiritual lives and makes us truly human. Created with a Soul Our soul is immortal. We are a unity of body and soul.

We are not meant to be alone. Created Male and Female Copyright: Monkey Business Images / Like the Trinity, we must live in loving community with others in order to be all that God created us to be. The partnership of men and women is the primary form of human community.

Our choices either help preserve the web of life or destroy it. We should not misunderstand the biblical terms “have dominion over” and “subdue.” Responsible for Caring for Creation Copyright: Alexey Stiop / We are called to stewardship, to honor and protect all of creation.

The Fall The Garden of Eden symbolizes the ideal relationship that God intended to have with human beings. Copyright: Steve Lovegrove / Adam and Eve disobeyed God and committed the first sin. They felt shame and blamed others for their sin. God tells them they will now experience pain, and their lives will become hard. They will now also experience death.

Original Sin Copyright: Aleksandar Mijatovic / Adam and Eve’s sin has consequences for all of us. The harmony that should exist between people, between human beings and nature, and between people and God has been wounded. Much of the Old Testament shows the continuing influence of sin.

Fallen, not Evil Copyright: John Said / Original Sin does not cause us to lose our goodness or make us completely spiritually corrupt. It weakens our natural powers for relating to God and for choosing to do good. We are more influenced by ignorance, suffering, and the knowledge of our own death. We are more inclined to sin.

God Triumphs Copyright: Keith McIntyre / God gave humans the freedom to choose our own destiny. God has destined us for glory and will not be stopped by our sin. We can choose to give and receive love. Sin will never be stronger than God’s love.
