This book was released on 2014-10-11 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three theories of the Incarnation are, or have been current in the schools, and they are these: - 1. That taught by Raymond Lully, and since his time by various modern optimists. Admitting that the Incarnation is not simply and absolutely necessary to God-a proposition which could not be asserted without impiety, itmaintains that, given the Creation, the Incarnation must follow as its necessary consequence. God, decreeing Creation, was bound to decree the best and most perfect kind of creation; but that involves the union of a created nature with an uncreated Person: and so God could not decree creation, without at the same time decreeing the Incarnation, which was its perfection.There is in this view much truth and great beauty, but it is founded more on what theologians call convenience than on necessity. 2. The second theory of the Incarnation is that formulated by S. Thomas, and generally taught by that school of theological thought which from him takes its name of Thomist. The Thomists teach that Jesus not only came principally to save sinners, in which all agree, but that, if there had been no sin, there would have been no Incarnation. They say that His coming was altogether remedial, and that He could not have come otherwise, so far as God's present decrees aloe concerned. In support of this view there is a large amount of Scripture evidence, that would seem at first sight to decide the question in their favour, especially when taken in connection with several congenial expressions in the Hymns and Offices of the Church. The greatest modern exponent of this view is Vasquez. 3. The third view of the Incarnation is that taken by the Scotists, by Suarez, and by many other theologians both ancient and modern. It teaches-and so far in accordance with Thomist theology, that Jesus came principally to save sinners, and for that end came in passible flesh; but here its agreement ceases. It asserts that even if Adam had never sinned, Jesus would yet have come, and come by means of Mary, in impassible flesh; that He was predestinated the Firstborn of creatures before the decree which permitted sin; that the Incarnation was from the first an intentional and integral part of the scheme of creation; that it was not merely occasioned by sin, but that sin only determined the manner of it, and its accompaniments of suffering and death. And it is as regards the manner of the Incarnation alone, as speaking of our Lord's coming in passible and mortal flesh, that the Scotists understand those passages in Holy Scripture, in the writings of the Fathers, and in the Office Books of the Church, which at first sight seem to make for the Thomist view. The Scotista dwell very much on the doctrine that J eaus was decreed before all creation, and therefore before the permission of sin. They hold that all men exist because of Christ, and not Christ because of them, that all creation was for Him, and was not only decreed subsequently to His predestination, but for His sole sake

This book was released on 2017-08-22 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every Christmas, it's the same old story. Every television show doesn't teach that Jesus is God, Christ's incarnation doesn't make sense, there is discontinuity between Christ's divinity and humanity, and so on-it's all so terribly unoriginal. These so called "free thinkers" seem to believe that they have duped Christian theologians or discovered the hidden chink in the intellectual armor of the Christian faith. While they fancy themselves to be courageous and intrepid in their criticisms, the reality is that they are cowards who attack a Christian faith which is fit for a first grader. The fact of the matter is that their arguments cannot stand up to a mature Christianity meant for full-grown men. If the faithful are to stand up to these intellectual bullies then we need to put down the milk and dig into the meat of the Catholic doctrine on Christ. In this volume, you will find a full-course meal on the doctrine of Incarnation written by none other than St. Thomas Aquinas Himself as skillfully prepared and compiled by William Humphrey. From front to back, A Digest of the Doctrine of St. Thomas on the Incarnation will give you everything you need to understand the intricacies, necessity, and beauty of the Word made flesh. Open this up and partake in a feast which will nourish your mind and soul and help you learn to imitate the mature stature of Christ. By the end of the book, you'll be more than equipped to refute the absurd non-sense spouted by the feeble attacks on Christ's incarnation.
