Christian Faith Education (CFE) begins with this course. CFE 101 discusses the stories of the continuing journey of God with His people. The Biblical stories will serve as an inspiration and guide in recognizing the unlimited and unconditional love of God to humanity and the world. Our journey with God started in His encounter with the people in the Old Testament led by Abraham and the prophets. God’s journey continued in the New Testament through His final and definitive revelation to bring the message of salvation – Jesus Christ. The journey continues today in our Christian communities through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. The encounter of the early Christians (led by Jesus’ disciples) with God inspires and reminds us of the faithfulness of God to people, then and now, and in the days to come, as He said, “And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.” (Mt 28: 20).

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

This is a subject required for all first year college students as their first theology course in the University. It lets the students learn and appreciate

 the initiative of God in intervening in human history just to bring back people to the right path and to guide them not to commit the same mistakes

being done by our fore-fathers. This course will discuss the different ways on how God visited His people starting with the calling of Abraham and

the prophets, the peak of His revelation through His Son Jesus Christ and His vision of the Kingdom, and His continuing guidance of the people

through the Holy Spirit who is present in the Church and her celebrations. With this framework, the first part of the course will first present a brief

discussion about the Sacred Scriptures, its formation and compilation as the so called Bible which is the primary record of this God’s visitation to

His people, and the methods of bringing out its message.
