As Catholics we are taught that each individual by virtue of being created by God, has a dignity that comes from what God originally intended when He creataed all things. God said, “it is good”. It is for this reason, knowing that not all would accept Him, that He became incarnate, suffered and died for us. It is also for that reason that He sends His graces as a free gift, so that in cooperating with His grace we may come to salvation.
