1. Do you think the Church has faithfully responded to the challenge to act justly
and love mercy? (context of act justly and love mercy: in lesson 1 in our Learning
Packet "Sources of Social Doctrine")

Yes, it has responded to the challenge to act justly and with love and mercy, and
to teach the same qualities to the community. The church teaches us to share our
blessings to those who are less fortunate, and that every person is made in the image of
God and that all of us are equal. Thus, it is our duty as Christians to alleviate the
suffering of those who are experiencing the injustices that the cruel and unfair society is
inflicting on them; it is our duty to enable them to experience the same blessings that we
do.

2. As a law student, I want to be grounded with my faith on the social issues


because_______ (supply your answer in not less than 10 sentences)

As a law student, I want to be grounded with my faith on the social issues


because it will better allow me to respond to the injustices that the less fortunate face in
life. I am a law student because I want to be able to help people when the time comes.
Through my studies, I can better hone my knowledge on the laws of our country and be
able to point out whatever wrongdoings are happening within our community and our
country. It will allow me to understand the plight of the less fortunate people and what
they are going through, even though I am not in the same position as them. And as a
Christian lawyer, I believe that I will be able to help the people around me when it comes
to legal issues.

But the fact of the matter is; one does not really need to be a lawyer in order to help
people. A Christian, no matter what the profession, should be one who helps his fellows
in order to make a peaceful and orderly community within God’s world. For me, being a
good Christian has always been about fighting for what is right; to come to the aid and
protect those who are oppressed and being slighted by the evil desires of people. As a
Christian community, it should become a normal practice for us to give and share to our
fellow Christians, and even to those of other faiths. We should learn to accept that we
are all people that have been created by our Lord and none should be denied access to
His Kingdom. I believe this to be what our Lord and Savior would want us to do.
