Adult Faith Formation, Understanding St Thomas Aquinas -- May 26th, Session 2 -- The Incarnation and the Annunciation

We discuss the structure of the Third Part of the Summa Theologica, which focuses on Christ and the Sacraments he instituted.

We give a quick overview of the general series of questions which are discussed in the "Treatise on the Incarnation" - why it is that the Second Person of the Trinity became Man and whether it could have been otherwise, as well as the humanity of the Savior.

We then look more carefully at the conception of Christ and the perfection of the Child conceived.
