The Triune God
God the Son
Christ is the 'only begotten Son of God'. This means that the Son shares in the same nature as the Father in a unique way. God the Son was 'born before all ages'. This means that there was never a point when the son did not exist.
The Son is true God, 'consubstantial with the Father'. This stresses the fact that there is no distinction in nature between the Father and Son
The Son took on the limitations of human nature. 'By the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the VIrgin Mary' stresses the fact that God the Son, in Jesus, did not have an earthly father (but did have a human mother).
God the Son became human out of love for people, to save humans from the eternal separation from God that is caused by sin. He suffered and died as a human being, fulfilling God's promises in the Old Testament
Jesus rose from the dead and ascended into heaven, where he takes his place as Son of God, as Judge and as Lord of all. Jesus did not become God at the resurrection. He had always been God but he had limited himself to a human nature while on earth.

Prayer
Types of Prayer
Spontaneous prayer: Prayer that does not have a set structure, where the words are made up on the spur of the moment. People believe that the Holy Spirit guides them in what to say. These prayers come from the heart and reflect how the person is feeling.
Traditional Prayer: Forms of prayer that have been used by generations of believers, such as the Hail Mary and Our Father. People do not have to think up the words to say as they have already been set. Can encourage people to pray as they know them well.
Prayer positions
Kneeling: Shows that the person is submissive to the will of God. it is also acknowledging that God is in the position of authority and that the person praying is humble before God. It is also a position that is asking for forgiveness and pardon for what the person has done wrong.
Prostrating: Is lying flat on the ground with your face on the ground to show total humility and self-giving to God. The person is pleading for help and mercy.
