このコンテンツについて
Today’s readings explore how God’s truth is uniquely revealed and reflected in both Scripture and humanity. Irenaeus defends the Church’s four Gospels as divinely appointed, exposing the mystical significance of their number and character, and showing how each Gospel confronts the errors of the early heretics by grounding the faith in the one true God who made all things. Augustine turns inward, exposing the temptations of vain-glory and the subtle ways pride creeps in—even when we think we’re scorning it—reminding us that true humility and healing come only from God’s mercy. Aquinas then addresses the question of whether angels bear God’s image more perfectly than humans, ultimately affirming that while angels may reflect God’s image more immaterially, it is humanity—made of both body and soul—who most truly images God in the unity of intellect, will, and our potential for renewal in Christ (Genesis 1:26–27; Colossians 3:10).
Readings:
Irenaeus, Against Heresies, Book 3, Chapter 11
