Through the Church Fathers: March 18

Today, we continue our journey through the early Church with Justin Martyr, Augustine, and Thomas Aquinas. In our reading from Dialogue with Trypho, Justin discusses whether the soul can see God, engaging in a rich philosophical debate that highlights both Christian and Platonic influences. From Confessions, Augustine reflects on his encounters with Ambrose, detailing his growing appreciation for the Catholic faith despite his lingering doubts. Finally, in the Summa Theologica, Aquinas addresses the nature of divine relations, explaining how relation and person are identical in God while remaining conceptually distinct.Join us as we explore these foundational theological insights that shaped the development of Christian doctrine.Explore the Project:📖 Through the Church Fathers – https://www.throughthechurchfathers.com 🤝 Support on Patreon – https://www.patreon.com/cmichaelpatton 🎓 Credo Courses – https://www.credocourses.com 📚 Credo Ministries – https://www.credoministries.org
