Through the Church Fathers: April 24

from Through the Church Fathers

In today’s episode, we wrestle with powerful moments from three theological giants. We begin with Justin Martyr’s striking accusation that the Jews removed key passages from Scripture—verses that point directly to Christ’s divinity and suffering, including lines from Jeremiah, Esdras, and Psalm 96. Then we join Augustine in the garden, moments after his conversion, as Alypius reads beyond Romans 13 and finds a word for himself: “Receive the one who is weak in faith.” Finally, Aquinas weighs in on a metaphysical mystery: were the angels created before, after, or with the material world? He lands with precision—at the moment of creation itself. Three voices, three time periods, one shared awe before God’s unfolding plan.Explore the Project: Through the Church Fathers – https://www.throughthechurchfathers.com Patreon – https://www.patreon.com/cmichaelpatton Credo Courses – https://www.credocourses.com Credo Ministries – https://www.credoministries.org
