Excerpt: ...time receives, through Jesus Christ, in Whom he is ingrafted, faith, hope and love."" They received, therefore, the forgiveness of their sins, sanctifying grace and the whole train of attendant virtues and supernatural Gifts of the Holy Ghost. However, according to learned doctors, in the older dispensation, the invisible mission of the Holy Ghost was not yet to be accompanied by a visible mission through the Incarnation because the latter would then have come out of due time, it being necessary that the visible mission of the Divine Son precede that of the Holy Ghost. It was quite fitting, that before the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity revealed His presence outwardly (thus giving to men a clearer knowledge of His Person), the plenitude of time resolved upon by the Wisdom of God for the Incarnation of the Word and His appearance amongst us, should have arrived. 1 James ii. 23. Triduum. sess. VI., c. vii. Moreover, before revealing the dogma of the Trinity to a people so prone to idolatry as the Jews, it was necessary first to impress deeply upon their minds the fundamental truth of the unity of God. This truth, the direct antithesis of polytheism, is constantly recalled in the books of the Old Testament: "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, is one." 12 On the other hand, we meet with only a few obscure allusions to the Trinity of Persons. Sometimes it is question indeed of the Word of God and His spirit, but they are spoken of in such vague terms, that it is very problematical whether the Jewish teachers had a notion that they were Three distinct Persons. Under the New Law, on the contrary, after the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us, the mystery of the Blessed Trinity was fully revealed and preached to...

Book The Indwelling of the Holy Spirit in the Souls of the Just

Download or read book The Indwelling of the Holy Spirit in the Souls of the Just written by Father Bartholemey Froget and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sovereign Pontiff, Leo XIII., in his admirable Encyclical, Divinum illud munus, addressed to the entire Catholic world under date of May 9, 1897, expresses his ardent desire to see faith in the august ministry of the Trinity revived in men's souls, and piety towards the Holy Ghost increased in their hearts. To this end he drew the attention of the Faithful to the presence of the Holy Spirit, His wonderful power, as well as His activity, throughout the Church; and also in the soul of each of the Faithful, imparting the abundance of His celestial Gifts. Furthermore, the Vicar of Jesus Christ reminded Catholic preachers and others who have charge of souls, of the duty incumbent on them to explain carefully, and with clearness and completeness, all that relates to the Holy Spirit, avoiding difficult and subtle controversies, and taking special pains to treat of the innumerable benefits we have received from Him and do constantly receive; so that, as the Holy Father added, ignorance and error about these sublime things may be expelled from the minds of the faithful, who are so rightly called. "the children of light" (Ephesians v. 8). Words as wise as they are opportune. As a matter of fact, how many Christians of our day have any notion, however vague and imperfect, about the Holy Spirit, His Gifts, His wondrous works in the souls of men, the spiritual riches and joys which He lavishes upon whomsoever shows himself docile to His inspirations? "Perhaps," insists Leo XIII., "it would not be impossible even in this our era, to come across Catholic Christians, who, if questioned, as were the proselytes of old by the Apostle, whether or not they had received the Holy Ghost, would answer in the same words: We have not so much as heard whether there be a Holy Ghost'" (Acts xix. 2). At any rate, there are many who are either entirely ignorant or have but a very superficial knowledge about Him, and thereby, to a certain extent, fall short of the fruits of their religion, lacking the knowledge of that truth so beautiful and so consoling-His invisible sending and His indwelling in souls in the state of grace. And yet what can be more worthy of their deepest attention? Is not this God's supreme Gift, the chief Girt and the crowning Gift of all-God Himself coming within us, giving Him· self to us, making Himself our Guest infinitely sweet, our Friend, our Consoler, the active principle of our sanctification, and the pledge of our eternal happiness, nay, its very origin. Is this not the supremely important subject of a reasonable being's thought, the object of his most passionate devotion?

Book The Indwelling Spirit

Download or read book The Indwelling Spirit written by Robert W. Gleason and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Treats of one of the most sublime themes of revelation: the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in the souls of the just. The divine indwelling is basic in the teaching of St. John and St. Paul. The mode of this indwelling has absorbed theological thought from earliest times to our own day. It is a mystery within a mystery; and this work surveys the Scriptures, the Fathers and the insights of the great theologians to bring us to a deeper and more appreciative understanding of the problem and of the reality of grace. Shows that the Spirit of Wisdom has enabled us to lift the divine veil so that we can regain that spirit of awe which is the beginning of wisdom.

Book The Holy Spirit and Moral Action in Thomas Aquinas

Download or read book The Holy Spirit and Moral Action in Thomas Aquinas written by Jack Mahoney, SJ and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-02-05 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Holy Spirit and Moral Action in Thomas Aquinas is a detailed study of how, according to one of Christianity’s greatest visionary thinkers, God’s Holy Spirit is continuously at work in and through humanity’s moral activity. Jack Mahoney, SJ, documents, notably from Aquinas’s commentaries on scripture, how “the grace of the Holy Spirit” prompts and influences people’s minds, as well as their decisions to act, occasionally in unexpected ways. Through the gift of connatural wisdom, the Spirit empowers humans to appreciate God’s own wise and loving design for the whole of creation, and enables them to cooperate freely in fulfilling their unique part in it.

Book The Love of God Poured Out Grace and the Gifts of the Holy Spirit in St Thomas Aquinas

Download or read book The Love of God Poured Out Grace and the Gifts of the Holy Spirit in St Thomas Aquinas written by John Meinert and published by Emmaus Academic. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the relationship between the gifts of the Holy Spirit and the action of grace? John Meinert’s The Love of God Poured Out enters into the major positions and debates within Thomism to forge a new synthesis on this topic within the greater body of scholarship existing today. Meinert reads Aquinas’s thought on the gifts of the Holy Spirit and grace in an integral and analogous way. Not only does The Love of God Poured Out aid scholars in understanding Aquinas’s thought on these two issues, it also once more clarifies the truth that the Holy Spirit and his gifts are neither a devout appendix to moral theology nor a pious nod to tradition. They are the heart and height of the moral life, a life lived subditus Deo.

Book Thomas Aquinas Exposition of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit

Download or read book Thomas Aquinas Exposition of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit written by James W. Stroud and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the renewed interest in the moral theology of St. Thomas since the time of Leo XIII, little attention has been paid to the topic of the gifts of the Holy Spirit among moral theologians, which is puzzling considering St. Thomas viewed the gifts as necessary for the moral life. Among the few scholars who discuss the gifts of the Holy Spirit, a considerable disagreement has emerged regarding how to understand St. Thomas' doctrine of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. The purpose of this dissertation is to elucidate an account of St. Thomas' doctrine of the gifts of the Holy Spirit through an examination of the development of his doctrine of the gifts within his writings as a way to decide between the differing accounts. First, this study surveys the historical development of the gifts of the Holy Spirit to show the scriptural foundations of the gifts, an emerging understanding of the role of the Holy Spirit in the writings of the Church Fathers, and the efforts of systematizing the virtues and gifts in the writings of the Scholastic authors prior to St. Thomas. Second, this study presents the two differing accounts for understanding St. Thomas' doctrine of the gifts of the Holy Spirit with attention to the specific areas of disagreement between these rival accounts. Third, this study examines the writings of St. Thomas Aquinas concerning the gifts of the Holy Spirit. This close textual study reveals how St. Thomas, for most of his work, consistently held one view of the gifts, but in his later work, wrote a different account of the gifts. Fourth, this dissertation concludes by focusing on the areas of development in St. Thomas' doctrine of the gifts with specific attention on the use of the term instinctus and by adjudicating the areas of disagreement between the rival accounts.
