Produktbeschreibung
2022 Reprint of the 1946 Edition. Exact facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Christians, from the lowliest to the most gifted minds all through the ages have yearned for a fuller understanding of the chief mysteries of their faith. The principal elements of these mysteries have been defined by the Church. But the implication and expansion of the dogmatic definitions embrace a wide field of discussion and speculation for theologians. All recognize, however, that some aspects of these mysteries lie beyond the reach of the human intellect, even aided by divine revelation. In THE MYSTERIES OF CHRISTIANITY, Scheeben attempts to clarify and present an explanation of these mysteries. Scheeben combines the strict logic of a theologian with the warmth of a man of prayer. The warmth pervades the logic throughout. The student or the professor of dogmatic theology will find here a method of proof that will supplement the more familiar scholastic treatment. The scope of this volume is best indicated by the following headings of the ten parts. I. The Most Holy Trinity II. God in the Original Creation III. Sin IV. The God-man and His Economy V. The Eucharist VI. The Church and the Sacraments VII. Christian Justification VIII. Glorification and the Last Things IX. Predestination X. The Science of the Mysteries of Christianity
