Through the Church Fathers: August 7

Today’s theme: God redeems the whole person and all creation—body, soul, and even time—by works that sometimes astonish nature itself. Irenaeus defends the resurrection of our flesh and the unity of body, soul, and Spirit; Augustine reflects on time as a reality deeper than the motions of sun or stars; and Aquinas clarifies how divine actions become “miraculous” only in relation to created limits, never to God’s power (Genesis 1:14; Genesis 2:8; Daniel 3:25; Luke 18:27; Ephesians 1:11).Readings: Irenaeus, Against Heresies, Book 2, Chapters 4–7Augustine, The Confessions, Book 11, Chapter 23 (Section 29)Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, Part 1, Question 105, Article 7Explore the Project:Through the Church Fathers – https://www.throughthechurchfathers.comPatreon – https://www.patreon.com/cmichaelpattonCredo Courses – https://www.credocourses.comCredo Ministries – https://www.credoministries.org#Irenaeus #Confessions #SummaTheologica #Resurrection #Time #Miracles #ChurchFathers
