Through the Church Fathers: February 28

Today’s readings in Through the Church Fathers in a Year explore the struggle to understand God’s nature and the mystery of the Trinity. Augustine reflects on how his mind was clouded by physical images, preventing him from grasping the spiritual reality of God. He describes his past errors, his misguided attempts to explain good and evil, and the pride that kept him from true wisdom. Ignatius of Antioch, in his letter to the Romans, humbly asks for prayers for the Church in Syria and gives his final words of farewell, entrusting all things to Christ. Thomas Aquinas, in Summa Theologica, explains why the doctrine of the Trinity is beyond natural reason and must be revealed by God. These readings remind us of the limits of human reason and the necessity of divine truth.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
