One of the Trinity was Crucified
7th November 2019: 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm GMT
Traditional Christian theology affirms that Jesus of Nazareth is both truly God and truly human. This leads to theological questions about the predication of human and divine attributes to the person of Christ. Did God suffer and die on a cross? Is this man the creator of the world? By examining the traditional ‘rules of predication’ as presented by John Damascene and Thomas Aquinas, one comes to a deeper understanding of the mystery of the Incarnation, the suffering of God, and the metaphysics of Creation.
Fr. Thomas Joseph White, OP, is the director of the Thomistic Institute at the Angelicum in Rome. Originally a native of southeastern Georgia, Fr. White studied at Brown University, where he converted to Catholicism. He did his doctoral studies at Oxford University and is the author of The light of Christ: An Introduction to Catholicism, Wisdom in the Face of Modernity: A Thomistic Study in Natural Theology, The Incarnate Lord: A Thomistic Study in Christology, and Exodus. He is co-editor of the academic journal Nova et Vetera and, in 2011, was appointed an ordinary member of the Pontifical Academy of St. Thomas Aquinas.
