The venerable prayers in the Missal, the dignity of the ceremonies, the concerted movement of priests and worshippers in supplication and love, have stirred the heart of the Catholic world. Many aspects of our act of worship — its setting, foreseen in prophecy and fashioned reverently in the course of time; the heart of it, the Eternal Priest offering Himself as Victim; the memorial in His daily return, as real as when He walked to death; our sharing in that ceaseless Eucharistic action whereby the Church offers herself in Christ to God; the inexhaustible riches of the Redeemer’s presence; the food of the soul on earth, with a pledge of eternal life — these are lucidly explained by Fr.

The main task of our time, it seems to me, consists in propoupding and emphasizing the supernatural quality of Christianity, for the benefit of both science and life. Theoretical as well as practical naturalism and rationalism, which seek to throttle and destroy all that is specifically Christian, must be resolutely and energetically repudiated.\" Thus writes the great 19th-century theologian Matthias Scheeben, a vibrant, original, and poetic author who re-opened the enchanting world of St. Thomas to new generations of Catholics in a period marred by the desiccated rationalism of the Enlightenment period in its last rays before the darkness of modernism.

What is His essence? and What are His qualities or attributes? Consequently in theology, as in philosophy, the existence, essence, and attributes of God must form the three chief heads of investigation. The theological treatment differs from the philosophical in that it considers the subject in the light of supernatural Revelation, which builds upon and at the same time confirms, supplements, and deepens the conclusions of unaided human reason. Since the theological question regarding the existence of God resolves itself into the query: Can we know God?—the treatise De Deo Uno naturally falls into three parts: (1) The knowability of God; (2) His essence; and (3) The divine properties or attributes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Os Justi Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40099829940322,"sku":"","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/1353\/5842\/products\/IMG_5063_jpg.jpg?v=1665629474"},{"product_id":"the-author-of-nature-and-the-supernatural-creation-anthropology-and-angelology","title":"The Author of Nature and the Supernatural: Creation, Anthropology, and Angelology","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eBy Msgr.

In undertaking to supply a practical exemplification of the way in which the meaning and reality of such grace can be brought home even to children, Father Matthew has undertaken a most useful piece of work. Father Matthew's skill as a catechist is born of his native ability and the loving devotion he has given to many years of experience in instructing children in the truths of their religion. The time and care he has lavished on this little book are immediately evident, and reflect his own love of God, his affection for the children he serves, and his devotion to the great work of the catechist. What characterizes this book is the profuse but clear and apt use of many of the illustrations found in Holy Scripture to explain the significance and effectiveness of sanctifying grace, and the ingenious comparisons he has worked out to imprint these things indelibly on the mind.

It comes as no surprise that allusions to liturgical worship are ubiquitous in his writings. The “ordinances” of the Church, her rich panoply of rites handed down through the centuries, are, for Newman, doors or windows into the heavenly society for which we were created and to which God is calling us throughout our lives. As Newman says in a number of places, we are given our time on earth to begin to live, through personal prayer and corporate worship, the life of the blessed in heaven.This volume gathers over seventy texts from a large number and wide range of Newman’s writings, ranging from the Tracts for the Times and Parochial and Plain Sermons to the Letter to Pusey, Apologia Pro Vita Sua, and Grammar of Assent. Forty-four of Newman’s incomparably great sermons are included in full. That Newman deserves his reputation as one of the finest spiritual writers of modern times and the greatest prose stylist of nineteenth-century England is abundantly demonstrated in these spirited and subtle reflections on the duty of reverence, the benefits of ritual, and the privilege of divine worship.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Os Justi Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40347517583458,"sku":"2","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":40347517648994,"sku":"4","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"eBook","offer_id":40347517616226,"sku":"3","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/1353\/5842\/files\/newman.jpg?v=1685486684"},{"product_id":"defending-the-faith-against-present-heresies","title":"Defending the Faith Against Present Heresies","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEdited\u003c\/strong\u003e by John R.T.

Can there be situations where the usual structures of obedience become impediments to, rather than facilitators of, the Church’s mission and the good of souls?

Perennial difficulties with the nature and extension of papal infallibility as well as problems peculiar to recent decades in the Church make it timely to reexamine a debate that has lain dormant for too long, and to give proponents of the minority view an opportunity to make their case. The twelve contributors, sharing a desire for a candid and searching inquiry, argue both sides of the question fairly and fully. Each author brings distinct facts, observations, and arguments to the conversation.

Yet for many decades, the teaching and study of Scripture in academic settings within the Catholic Church has served more to undermine faith than to nourish it. This disastrous situation has arisen through a forgetfulness or rejection of the principles that should guide exegesis. In particular, many renowned scholars whose works have dominated the Catholic landscape sought to erect exegesis into an autonomous discipline, separated from both the teachings of the Church and from speculative theology. To shield themselves from such a secularized exegesis, and in response to the wider assault on orthodoxy within the Church, some Catholics have taken refuge with the magisterium, yet in a way that can obscure the fact that popes and bishops themselves must remain subject to the word of God. In this brief but profound primer, Fr Thomas Crean OP sets forth principles fundamental to all exegesis—in particular, the plenary inspiration and inerrancy of the sacred books—and responds to modern attempts to limit these two properties of Holy Writ. He discusses disputed questions about the nature of inspiration, literary genres, the plurality of senses, and the sufficiency of Scripture, and explains the enduring importance of the Septuagint and the Vulgate. \u003cem\u003eLetters from that City\u003c\/em\u003e will be of use especially to seminarians and other students of theology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFr Thomas Crean\u003c\/strong\u003e is an English Dominican.

While it is typically understood today as the practice of charging \u003cem\u003eexcessive \u003c\/em\u003einterest, this is a far cry from the meaning given to it by ancient and medieval authors, who considered the charging of \u003cem\u003eany \u003c\/em\u003einterest on a \u003cem\u003emutuum \u003c\/em\u003e(a loan of such things as are estimated by weight, number, or measure) to be usury.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinding a thorough, coherent, and believable explanation for so monumental a difference in outlook has been nearly impossible—until now. In this provocative work, David Hunt explains and defends the traditional view that usury is a charge for something that does not exist and is therefore a form of theft. Indeed, usury begets a form of chattel slavery, since charging interest on a \u003cem\u003emutuum \u003c\/em\u003eis an attempt to profit by treating the borrower as the lender’s property.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot only does Hunt present and clarify the classic arguments (as seen above all in St. Thomas Aquinas), he also carefully distinguishes usury from morally legitimate ways in which rent and fees may be charged. He shows how modern economists from the late seventeenth century onward misconstrue the issues at hand, leading not so much to the refutation of the old view as to a distortion and neglect of it that persists to this day. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing on a wide range of economists and theologians, Hunt pierces to the heart of the usury debate, thoroughly debunking the claim of John T. Noonan that usury is a “dead issue” to which only to “a few inveterate haters of the present order” pay heed. In reality, a clear grasp of usury is crucial to understanding why many modern Westerners live in a state of financial slavery—and why this was not the inevitable result of “progress” but a direct consequence of subordinating moral reasoning to economic analysis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePRAISE FOR THE BOOK\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“There are few books of which one can say that they are required reading for both theologians and economists, but Something for Nothing? is surely one of them.”—\u003cstrong\u003eFr.

In his theological writings, Thomas Aquinas explored this “order of excess” that characterizes God’s elevation of the rational creature, discerning in its most extreme instances—mystical transport, ecstasy, and rapture—the essential contours of the ordering of Christian life to the transcendent union of beatific vision. This same ordering is witnessed in Aquinas’s own experience, where toward the end of his life he was raised to a contemplative vision surpassing all language and further study.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eAnatomy of Transcendence\u003c\/i\u003e, Peter A.

His thesis is clear, his argument compelling: the Christian faith is rooted in a changeless deposit of faith revealed by God, entrusted to the Apostles and their successors, and, accordingly, incompatible with novelty; progress consists only of a deeper understanding and expression of what remains in itself the same, so that no future formulation can ever contradict what has already been understood and expressed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcross the centuries, Vincent’s Canon—“In the Catholic Church, every care should be taken to hold fast to what has been believed everywhere, always, and by all”—has resounded as a battle cry for defenders of dogmatic tradition; indeed, it served as inspiration and catalyst for John Henry Newman’s \u003cem\u003eEssay on the Development of Christian Doctrine\u003c\/em\u003e.

While there have always been plenty of topics about which Christians have legitimately disagreed, the Catholic Church has never lost sight of fundamental points of dogma or morality—and one of these is the immorality of taking steps to obstruct the conception of children or to prevent their birth. The advent of the Pill, however, created a blur; so did the oft-repeated lie of overpopulation. The two together were the perfect recipe to inject confusion into the minds of many.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYet the final word has been given.

This teaching is founded upon her understanding of the human person within God’s gracious plan of salvation. Created by God in His image and likeness, man has an immortal, immaterial soul, an intellect and will for freely apprehending and choosing the good, and an innate desire to seek happiness as his ultimate good and final end. Though wounded by original sin and our own personal sin, by divine grace we can live as true disciples of Jesus Christ and, through virtuous living, obtain some measure of happiness in this life and eternal bliss in the life to come.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn order to understand the moral universe in which we live, it is necessary to grasp what freedom really consists in and how it matures to its full stature through the virtues, particularly the mighty seven—faith, hope, charity, prudence, justice, fortitude, and temperance. One must also examine the contrary vices in order to recognize and avoid them. This book’s specific descriptions of venial and grave sins in various spheres of life will be welcome to those looking to form their consciences rightly, without veering into either laxity or scrupulosity. The “template” of the Beatitudes, most perfectly lived by Jesus Christ, and the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit, guide the Christian through the tempest of this world along the secure path of salvation.
