Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility regard others as better than yourselves. Let each of you look not to your own interests, but to the interests of others. Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God as something to be exploited, but emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, being born in human likeness. And being found in human form, he humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death even death on a cross. Therefore God also highly exalted him and gave him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bend, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, To the glory of God the Father. understanding Equality Emptied God empties himself of His power in order to become human and relatable to other humans.

  6. Year 10 Lent 1 - Homework 3 Part 1 John 1 KO page 158 John 1:1-18 The Word Became Flesh How are these terms used within the source? These will help you show In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being in him was life, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it. understanding Word There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. He came as a witness to testify to the light, so that all might believe through him. He himself was not the light, but he came to testify to the light. The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world. Light He was in the world, and the world came into being through him; yet the world did not know him. He came to what was his own, and his own people did not accept him. But to all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave power to become children of God, who were born, not of blood or of the will of the flesh or of the will of man, but of God. Flesh Grace And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father s only son,[d] full of grace and truth. (John testified to him and cried out, This was he of whom I said, He who comes after me ranks ahead of me because he was before me. ) From his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. The law indeed was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. No one has ever seen God. It is God the only Son, who is close to the Father s heart, who has made him known. 6

  8. Year 10 Lent 1 - Homework 4 Part 1 St Augustine Confessions XII - KO page 144 St Augustine Confessions XII, you, O Lord made something in the Beginning, which is of yourself, in your Wisdom, which is born of your own substance, and you created this thing out of nothing. You created heaven and earth but you did not make them of your own substance. If you had done so, they would have been equal to your only-begotten Son, and therefore to yourself, and justice could in no way admit that what was not of your own substance should be equal to you. But besides yourself, O God, who are Trinity in Unity, Unity in Trinity, there was nothing from which you could make heaven and earth. Therefore you must have created them from nothing, the one great, the other small. For there is nothing that you cannot do. You are good and all that you make must be good, both the great Heaven of Heavens and this little earth. You were, and besides you nothing was. From nothing, then, you created heaven and earth, distinct from one another; the one close to yourself, the other close to being nothing; the one surpassed only by yourself, the other little more than nothing.

  10. Year 10 Lent 1 - Homework 5 Part 1 Pope John Paul II - Evolution - KO pages 147 Pope John Paul II s MessageToThe Pontifical Academy OfSciences: On Evolution How are these terms used within the source? These will help you show understanding 3. In his encyclical HumaniGeneris (1950), my predecessor Pius XII has already affirmed that there is no conflict between evolution and the doctrine of the faith regarding man and his vocation, [I]draw attention to the necessity of using a rigorous hermeneutical approach in seeking a concrete interpretation of the inspired texts. It is important to set proper limits to the understanding of Scripture, excluding any unseasonable interpretations whichwould make it mean something which it is not intended to mean. In order to mark out the limits of their own proper fields, theologians and those working on the exegesis of the Scripture need tobe well informedregarding the results of the latest scientific research. 4. Taking into account the scientific research of the era, and also the proper requirements of theology, the encyclical HumaniGeneris treated the doctrine of "evolutionism" as a serious hypothesis, worthy of investigation and serious study, Today, more than a half-century after the appearance of that encyclical, some new findings lead us toward the recognition of evolution as more than an hypothesis. Infactit is remarkable that this theory has had progressively greater influence on the spirit of researchers, following a series of discoveries in different scholarly disciplines. The convergence in the results of these independent studies whichwas neither planned nor sought constitutes in itself a significant argument in favour of the theory.

  12. Year 10 Lent 1 - Homework 6 Part 1 Humanist views on life and abortion - KO page 95 Humanist views on life How are these terms used within the source? These will help you show understanding . a humanist would argue that the idea of "sacredness is unhelpful if one has to choose between risking the life of the mother or the life of the unborn foetus. This is very rare these days so the choice most often concerns the quality of life of either the mother or the foetus or both. The humanist would also oppose the related belief that contraception is wrong since this leads to even more unwanted pregnancies as well as heightened risk of sexually transmitted illnesses. Contraception Rights For humanists the issue of rights is more complex. Some (non- religious) moral philosophers have argued that full consciousness begins only after birth or even later, and so foetuses and infants are not full human beings with human rights. Other humanists may work on a kind of sliding scale, believing for example that the zygote one day after conception has no rights but the foetus one day before birth does have a right to be protected. Views of when abortion is morally permissible might be defined (as the law on abortion is) by the idea of viability (when the foetus can survive outside of the womb). Alternatively, evidence of when the foetus can feel pain may be considered by the humanist to be an important factor (a recent article in medical journal JAMA estimated that foetuses are not developed enough to feel any pain until after about 29 weeks. JAMA Vol 294, p947) Even if certain rights are given to foetuses, humanists believe we must never forget the rights of the woman involved. Some people believe that a woman has absolute rights over her own body which override those of any foetus. Woman/mother Foetus 12
