What Does That Mean Anyway?

Words taken from the book,
WHAT CATHOLICS REALLY BELIEVE

Dr. Ray Guarendi & Fr. Kevin Fete 

  

 Incarnation

The greatest proof of God's desire to work through the physical world to give us grace, was the Incarnation- God taking on the form of man in Jesus Christ.

Venerate

To pay honor to someone or something, which does not detract from God's glory, but adds to God's glory. Veneration is not "adoration" or "worship" which are activities, within Catholicism, reserved for God alone.

The Great Schism

The formal split between Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy in 1054.
