Year of faith...reading the Catechism everyday

Here is the 3rd installment of reading the Catechism presented in highlight form:

The Catechism is conceived as an organic presentation of the entirety of the Catholic faith...
Biblical references are presented as a working tool in catechesis...
Other tools include historical, apologetic or doctrinal...
Quotes are used from the Church Fathers, the liturgy and magisterium...
In brief summaries are provided at the end of each thematic unit...
Catechsim emphasizes the exposition of doctrine...
Catechism seeks to help deepen understanding of faith...
Whoever teaches must become all things to all men(1 Cor 9:22)...
It is lawful to teach and form equally all the faithful in true piety but realize some are as newborn babes, others as adolescents, still others as full adults...
The whole concern of doctrine and its teaching must be directed to the love that never ends...
Whatever is proposed for belief, for hope or action, the love of the Lord must always be made accessible...
All works of perfect Christian virtue spring from love and have no other objective than to arrive at love...
