SUMMARY:One of the Trinity was Crucified
DESCRIPTION: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. \nFr. 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.

SUMMARY:The Infused Science of Christ
DESCRIPTION:A Seminar on Christ’s Knowledge\nThomas Aquinas’s theory of the knowledge of Christ may seem to have little relevance for modern historical-critical study of the figure of Jesus of Nazareth.  In his mature work\, represented emblematically by the third part of the Summa Theologiae\, Aquinas presents the knowledge of Christ in a fourfold descending perspective from the highest forms of knowledge to the most basic. He begins from the divine wisdom that Christ possesses as God and then examines three modes of human knowledge: the immediate vision of God that Christ possesses in his human soul\, the infused science that Jesus possesses as the most perfect of the prophets\, and the acquired knowledge that Christ possesses as man in virtue of the human nature that he shares with us. \nIn this seminar led by Fr Thomas Joseph White\, OP\, we will engage with St Thomas’ work and see what relevance it might have to theology today. The seminar will take place  on Saturday 9th November at 3.00 p.m. at Blackfriars \n*** Places are limited\, so please register your interest by emailing Br Albert Elias Robertson\, OP ***\nYou will be also sent the reading for the seminar.

SUMMARY:Aquinas on Divinisation
DESCRIPTION:All sorts of people desire to have a different kind of life. Christians propose that Jesus Christ offers the grace to have a life very different from what we have at birth. St. Thomas Aquinas\, following Scripture and witnesses in the Christian tradition\, uses deification language to describe this different kind of life. For example\, Aquinas says\, ‘The gift of grace surpasses every capability of created nature\, since it is nothing short of partaking of the divine nature\, which exceeds every other nature’ (Summa Theologiae I-II\, q. 112\, a. 1\, co.; cf. 2 Pet 1:4). He also says\, ‘The good of grace in one is more than the good of nature in the whole universe’ (Summa Theologiae I-II\, q. 113\, a. 9\, ad 2). Do non-Christians realize that the Christian invitation is that radical? Do Christians? This talk explores what deification means for Aquinas—and what it can mean for us. \nRev Dr Andrew Hofer\, OP\nFather Andrew Hofer\, OP grew up as the youngest of ten children on a Kansas farm. He entered the Dominican Province of St. Joseph in 1995 and professed simple vows the following year. He made his profession of solemn vows in the Great Jubilee Year of 2000\, and was ordained a deacon in 2001 and a priest in 2002. \nFather Andrew is on sabbatical in fall 2019 as a visiting lector at the Blackfriars Studium\, Oxford and in spring 2020 as a visiting fellow at Yale Divinity School. During this sabbatical\, he is at work on a book tentatively titled Patristic Preaching: The Word of God Becoming Flesh\, funded by the Calvin Institute of Christian Worship’s Teacher-Scholar grant.
