Through the Church Fathers in a Year: Febuary 3

In this episode, we explore profound theological insights from three major figures: Barnabas, Augustine, and Thomas Aquinas. Our readings include The Epistle of Barnabas, Chapter 9, where we examine the spiritual meaning of circumcision and its fulfillment in Christ. Next, we delve into Augustine’s Confessions, Book II, Chapter 6, reflecting on his famous meditation on sin and how evil is a perverse imitation of God’s goodness. Finally, we study Summa Theologica, Part 1, Question 14, Article 1, where Aquinas defends the necessity of divine knowledge, showing how God’s knowledge is immediate, eternal, and foundational to His nature.Join us as we continue this journey through the writings that shaped Christian theology!Explore the Project:Through the Church Fathers – https://www.throughthechurchfathers.comPatreon – https://www.patreon.com/cmichaelpattonCredo Courses – https://www.credocourses.comCredo Ministries – https://www.credoministries.orgLet me know if you need any refinements!
