Lesson Vocabulary

  • Creation
    :
    Everything that God made, the heavens and the earth, all things visible and invisible. God created all things out of nothing. Everything that God makes is good. Therefore, all of creation is fundamentally good. (47, 70, 315, 316, 320, 353, 1110)
  • Ex Nihilo
    :
    Latin for “out of nothing.” This is the doctrine of creation, that God created all things out of nothing with only His Word. This fact teaches us that God is all-powerful, all-knowing, and goes beyond His creation. (320)
  • Gloria
    :
    A prayer that is said or sung during Sunday Mass that praises God simply for being God.
