Fr. Maximilian - The Cornerstone #4: St. Thomas Aquinas & Th

[VirFortunaeLucisque]

I *LOVE* the term "ABSOLUTE PRIMACY." Vivat Rex Caelestis!

[tfnat]

Father, you make your point clearly but does it mean that the incarnation becomes a revelational project of God in which case He continues in His plan of sharing His divinity with us? If this is solely the case, the plan of salvation stands on its head and a lot of biblical teachings about redemption are called to question. Is he here to save us from sin or just to show God's self? OR both? merry christmas.

I suspect the Franciscan thesis would say that the Incarnation was motivated by Christ's primacy, but the atonement on the Cross to save us from sin was motivated by human sinfulness.
