Outlines
🌟 Human Dignity in Christian Faith
The paragraph discusses the concept of human dignity from a Christian perspective. It begins by referencing Genesis 1:27, which states that God created humans in His own image, both male and female. This creation implies that humans are inherently valuable and possess a divine likeness. The text emphasizes that all humans, regardless of race or age, are created by God and share in His divine image. This shared divinity calls humans to live in community, reflecting the trinitarian nature of God. The paragraph also highlights the communal aspect of human nature, suggesting that humans are not meant to live in isolation but are designed to interact and support each other. It concludes by mentioning the importance of living justly and respecting the laws of the community, which are necessary to maintain order and prevent chaos.
📜 God's Response to Human Suffering
This paragraph delves into the biblical narrative of human suffering and God's response to it. It references the story of the Israelites' enslavement in Egypt and God's decision to rescue them, as told in Exodus 3. The paragraph explains that the Israelites were mistreated and overworked, with no regard for their humanity. However, God saw their suffering, heard their cries, and decided to intervene. The key takeaway is that God has compassion for human suffering and desires to liberate people to live a life of dignity. This is contrasted with the idea that suffering is not God's will but rather something that should be abolished. The paragraph also touches on the broader implications of this narrative, suggesting that God's will is for humans to live in dignity and that suffering is a result of humanity's disobedience to God's commandments.
🛂 The Call to Social Justice
The third paragraph focuses on the call to social justice as outlined in the Old Testament. It references Isaiah 1:15-17, where God instructs the people to cleanse themselves and remove the evil of their deeds. The key message is that true worship of God involves not only physical cleanliness but also moral rectitude. The people are urged to cease doing evil and to actively do good, seeking justice and defending the oppressed, orphaned, and widowed. The paragraph highlights the consequences of monarchical rule, which led to a centralized concentration of power, economic disparity, and the suffering of the poor. It critiques the religious practices of the time, which focused on temple rituals and sacrifices while neglecting the moral demands of the covenant. The paragraph concludes by emphasizing that true worship involves respecting the dignity of the marginalized and that power should be used for the benefit of all, not just the few.
🔮 Authentic Worship and Social Responsibility
This paragraph continues the discussion on authentic worship and social responsibility, particularly in the context of the Old Testament prophets. It emphasizes that true worship involves showing fidelity to the covenant by respecting the dignity of the downtrodden and marginalized. The paragraph contrasts the hypocritical behavior of those who attend religious services without making any significant changes in their lives. It also addresses the misuse of power and wealth in society, suggesting that all resources should be used for the benefit of all, not just a select few. The paragraph concludes by reiterating that power should be used to promote justice and the common good, rather than being abused for personal gain.
🕊️ Jesus' Message of Liberation
The final paragraph discusses Jesus' message of liberation as found in the New Testament, specifically in Luke 4:18-19. It highlights Jesus' mission to bring good news to the poor, proclaim liberty to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind, as well as to let the oppressed go free. The paragraph contrasts Jesus' concept of kingship with that of a tyrannical ruler, emphasizing that Jesus' kingdom is one of justice, peace, and freedom. It suggests that Jesus' rule is characterized by the promotion of God's justice and that the kingdom of God is an environment where good can flourish and every human being can find peace and justice. The paragraph concludes by summarizing the discussion and indicating that the third part of the lesson will be uploaded.

Transcripts
so dumako naman tayo ngayon sa second
part ng lesson natin and we will be
talking about human dignity according to
our Christian
Faith
so sa genesis chapter 1 verse 27
sinasabi na God created man in his image
in the Divine image he created them he
created him male and female he created
no so mas sa madaling
sabi nilikha ng Diyos ang
tao at sa lahat ng nilalang ng
Diyos tao ang kawangis
niya kawangis natin ang
Diyos kaya lahat ng tao na nakikita
mo ay Taman
African black
American
matanda may
kapansanan He is created by
God We are created by God Nil tayo ng
Diyos human share in the Divine image of
God
we participate in God's Divine
trinitarian nature and Called To belong
in the community of the father son and
holy spirit and we are called to be in
communion with the father son and holy
spirit as children of
god Dahil nga kawangis tayo ng Diyos no
Hindi lang tayo basta
kawangis no tayo ay anak ng
Diyos no anak tayo ng Diyos
kaya may human dignity
tayo and humans are called to live in
community We are communitarian at our
core so wala naman siguro ditong
Nabuhay na nabuhay siyang bigla na lang
na siya'y Putok sa buho no so nabubuhay
tayong may kasama
Pam natin no
kaklase kaibigan kamag-anak mga mahal sa
buhay kahit sabihin mo pang introvert
ka Hindi mo matatakasan
na may kasama ka We are communitarian at
oure and we are called to as brothers
and sister
not literally brothers and sisters sa
birth certificate no pero paano ba tayo
mamuhay bilang mag magkakapatid
no
so mabubuhay tayo bilang magkakapatid
no Kapag umaantabay
tayo sa bawat isa ' ba ganun yung
ginagawa ng magkakapatid
no umaantabay sa bawat isa
nagtutulungan so Gan din sana tayo sa
bawat Kap natin Ituring natin sila mga
kapatid na umantabay tayo sa kanila
kapag may kailangan sila kailangan nila
ng
tulong and we are called to live in
justice and respect or abide the lw of
the community
sunod sa
batas Kasi kung walang batas Anong
mangyayari sa
tao magkakagulo gulo ang
tao
no kinakailangan may batas para may
sinusunod tayo at yung batas nilikha yan
para mapabuti
tayo kasi kung walang batas wala
kanya-kanya na tayo
kung anong trip mo kung anong trip ko no
Hindi pwedeng walang basagan ng trip
Ganon hindi
pwede kaya nilika yung mga batas para
mapanatili yung kaayusan yung
kapayapaan So ngayon dumako tayo sa
biblical sources
of human
dignity So yung story Exodus test sa
Exodus chapter 3 veres 4 to 8 I have
seen I have indeed seen the misery of my
people in Egypt I have heard them crying
out because of their slave drivers and I
am concerned about their suffering so I
have come down to Rescue them from the
hand of The Egyptians to bring them up
out of the of that land into a good and
spacious land A land flowing with milk
and honey
no so to make the the story simple no
during the Old Testament kasi ang mga
tao
inaalipin nakikita natin sa may picture
yan Mayon silang hinihila no inaalipin
sila Bukod sa may hinihila
sila makikita niyo May nanalo sa kanila
may humahagupit sa kanila napagod na
pagod na yung
tao pero gusto pa rin nilang
pagtrabahuhin Gusto pa rin nilang
alipinin yung iba sa kanila kung
nakikita niyong maigi yung
litrato walang maayos na
pananamit kasi nga wala silang pakialam
Ang mahalaga lang ay paglingkuran nila
yung f
gawin yung utos ng ah namumuno sa
kanilang estado during their time yun
lang yung tingin sa
kanila hindi sila tinitingnan bilang tao
pero nakita ng Diyos yun nakikita ng
Diyos nadidinig ng Diyos yung kanilang
pagtangis k
sila So ano mga implications that God
has pity for human suffering who wishes
people to be Liberated and so Live a
life of
dignity May awa ang
Diyos naawa siya sa atin Kapag tayo ay
nagdurusa form enslavement and
oppression are mary of God's will as
creator of humanity in his own image no
o kaya siya
makiri kasi nga balikan natin yung
genesis chapter 1 verse 27 kanina no
nilikha tayong kawangis ng Diyos Pero
kung aalipinin mo lang yung iyong kapwa
no enslave mo sila i-press mo sila that
is a maury of God's will as creator of
humanity in his own image no para mo na
ring binaboy ang
Diyos kasi nga kawangis natin yung Diyos
no kaya kapag inaalipin mo ang isang tao
para mo na ring inalipin ang Diyos and
human suffering is not the Will Of God
But rather something which must be
abolished no so hindi naman ninais ng
Diyos no hindi naman niloob ng Diyos na
magdusa ang
tao pero may pagdurusa Bakit kasi sa mga
ninuno natin na sina Adan Sinu nila ang
utos ng
Diyos kaya lahat ng gusto nating
pagsumikapan ay pinaghihirapan natin
gusto nating maging successful kailangan
nating dumaan
paghihirap kain kailangan mong kumayod
kailangan mong
magtrabaho kasi nga noon binigay na ng
Diyos lahat eh no Ang simple lang ng
gagawin ng tao noon sundin ang utos ng
Diyos pero sinuway
nila kaya ang tao ngayon kailangan ng
kumayod kailangan magtanim kailangan
maghanap buhay
no and God's will is done on Earth when
the conditions for truly humane
existence are
created na yun nga dapat ginagawa natin
yung kalooban ng Diyos dito sa lupa no
Kasi
nga yun yung paraan para makapunta tayo
sa langit no na gawin natin yung
kalooban ng
Diyos and then next story no next
biblical source is from the story of the
Prophets sa Isaiah chapter 1 veres 15 to
17 wash yourselves make yourselves clean
remove the evil of your doings from
before my eyes ceas to do Evil learn to
do good seek justice Rescue the
oppressed defend the orphaned for the
widow as far as I
can I can understand our lesson before
no sa Old Testament na ang mga tao nga
noon Kapag sila
ay ina-acknowledge yung pagiging
makasalanan nila naglalagay sila ng
putik sa
mukha pero sinabi ng Diyos no na yun
Hugasan mo yung sarili mo yung physical
mo Hindi
makakapagpaalala
ano ang dapat mong gawin ' yan remove
the evil of your doings from before my
eyes no tigilan yung mga masasamang
gawain no cease to do Evil learn to do
good gumawa ng kabutihan ano-ano yung
mga kabutihan na gusto makita ng Diyos
sa atin no sick justice
no maging makatarungan huwag tayong
mapanlamang
Rescue the
oppressed no sagipin natin yung mga
naaapi
yung mga nasa laylayan ng
lipunan defend The
Orphan ipagtanggol natin yung mga orphan
kasi inabando na
sila wala silang sandigan kaya dapat
tayo yung manindigan para sa kanila and
plead for the widow kasi during the Old
Testament kapag ang isang babae ay
naa mahihirapan na siang mabuhay kasi ng
noon Ped hanap buhay ang babae kaya
nakadepende lang sila sa kanilang
asawa so yan yung isa sa mga biblical
source ng human
dignity
so let's go to the consequences of the
monarchy dahil nung panahon nila no sa
panahon sa bibliya no ang kanilang form
of Government ay monarchy or sa madaling
sabi ang na ang namumuno sa kanila ay
isang
hari So ano yung mga consequences ng
monarchy una no power became centralized
in the monarchy Ibig sabihin lahat ng
kapangyarihan nasa
hari Hindi katulad sa bansa natin no sa
bansang demokratiko no Iba yung
kapangyarihan ng ah
legislative iba yung kapangyarihan ng
Judiciary iba yung kapangyarihan ng mga
mambabatas
no pero during the the monarchy lahat ng
kapangyarihan nasa
kanya that's why no may Increasing gap
between the rich and poor as fortunes
were amassed in large economic projects
of the monarchy and more and more people
became the laboring poor subject of
subject to the weems of political and
economic
masters
so dahil nga nasa kanya lahat ng
kapangyarihan inabuso niya
ito maraming tao ang
nagdusa dahil lang sa pansarili niyang
interest and
then situation
abuse of and privilege for the
elimination of human So yun nga dahil na
sa kanya lahat ng kapangyarihan inabuso
niya
ito naabuso niung kapangyarihan niya at
nawala yung mga karapatan ng tao no and
religion was more centered Around The
Temple C and it's elaborate liturgical
and sacrificial rights ignoring the
moral demands of the
covenant So yung religion noon
nung time
nila no naka-focus lang sa yan sa mga
sacrificial rights no pero na i-ignore
nila yung demands of the
covenant
no Oo nag-aalay sila pero paglabas Ng
templo Ano kaya yung nabago sa kanila or
may pagbago kaya may na-realize kaya
sila no O basta lang silang pumunta sa
templo para
mag-alay so the above situation provoke
a response from the from the Prophets no
so for Isaiah the sacrificial liturgy
could only be authentically offered by
those who showed their fidelity to the
covenant by respecting the dignity of
the downtrodden and
marginalized so sinasabi lang dito ni
Isaiah no na
para maging authentic yung pagpunta
natin sa simbahan natin no regardless of
our religion
no dapat mas nagpapakatao
tayo pero ano yung mapapansin ninyo o sa
ating mga katoliko '
ba sisimba tayo pag Linggo paglabas
natin ng simbahan
no sino yung sasalubong sa atin yung mga
namamalimus no yung mga Nanghihingi ng
tulong pero ini-ignore lang natin
sila no kaya minsan nagiging hipokrito
tayo
eh nagiging hipokrito tayo kasi
nga no pumupunta tayo sa loob ng
simbahan pero walang pagbabagong
nangyayari and the abuses of human
dignity in the various forms of
exploitation characteristic of the
israelite state and society where a
rejection of the covenant and a bet of
Israel
identity dahil nga sa pangabuso sa dig
ng tao
yung pagkakakilanlan ng Israel bilang
bayan ng Diyos ay
nawala So yung mga implications nito no
na
una ah true Worship of yahwe is to help
unburden the poor from their oppression
no na kapag tayo ay sumasamba sa
Diyos dapat mas nagiging makatao tayo
dahil kawangis nga sila ng
Diyos ipadama natin yung pagmamahal ng
Diyos sa
kanila goods of creation is for the use
of everyone not only for the
few power is for the benefit of
promoting jce and the common
is for the use of everyone not only for
the few na lahat ng meron tayo no Hindi
iyan para sa atin o hindi yan para sa
mga
mangilan yan ay para sa lahat kaya
kung kung anong meron ka ngayon no
nasiksik liglig at nag-uumapaw Hindi
iyan Para SAO ginagamit tayong
instrumento ng Diyos para sa kapwa natin
pero Nakakalungkot no minsan pag sinabi
ng adviser niyo na sponsor tayo ng Misa
magooffer tayo ano yung binibigay
natinag na tayong magbanggit ng halaga
pero anou yung binibigay natin binibigay
lang natin yung sobra
natin sobra lang natin yung binibigay
natin
tandaan natin no na kapag tayo ay
nag-aalay sa
Diyos hindi tayo nagbibigay sa Diyos
dahil meron
tayo nagbibigay tayo sa Diyos Dahil
binigyan niya
tayo Binigyan niya
tayo binabalik lang natin sa kanya kung
ano y meron tayo and power is for the
benefit of promoting justice and the
common good no So yung
kapangyarihan binibigay sa atin
ipinagkakaloob sa atin Hwag tayong
mang-abuso
kundi yung pinagkatiwalaang
kapangyarihan sa atin Gamitin natin to
promote justice and for the common
good And
next sa new testament sa Luke 4 verses
18 to
19 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me
because he has anointed me to bring glad
tidings to the poor he has sent me to
proclaim Liberty to captives and
recovery of sight to the Blind and to
let the oppressed go free and to
proclaim a year acceptable to the
Lord
no ano yung implication ng
ah biblical source na yon
or Jesus anchored the proclamation of
the gospel for the liberation of the
Poor no kaya dumating si Hesus
no para ipahayag yung mabuting balita
kanino sa
mahihirap sa mga
inaalipin sa mga laborers no sa mga
makasalanan sa mga kababaihan at sa mga
bata and his proclamation of the kingdom
is not about an authoritarian and
tyrannical authority
si Jesus bilang isang hari no Hindi siya
yung haring mapangabuso
kundi ang ipinapahayag niyang kaharian
sa atin no ay kaharian kung saan no doon
natin malalasap ang tunay na kaligayahan
dahil kapiling natin ang Diyos dahil
sinunod natin ang kanyang kalooban he
drw on the prophetic hopes of a just
king who would meate the justice Of God
no So yung pagiging hari ni Hesus
no ay isang makatarungang hari no at ang
pinapalaganap niyang katarungan ay
katarungan mula sa Diyos and the image
of the kingdom of God implies an
environment in which good can flourish
and In which every human being can find
peace justice and freedom no sa kaharian
ng Diyos
no Hindi natin dadanasin yung kaharian
na nangyari
noon na may pangaalipin may pangaabuso
At ano pa man
kundi ang ating tatamasahin doon ay
kapayapaan katarungan at
kalayaan so we end our discussion here
so I will upload the third part Thank
you for listening
