Synopsis "Christian Perfection"
The goal of Christian life is attaining spiritual perfection. In today's consumerist and on-the-go lifestyle, revisiting the question of spiritual perfection is crucial, refocusing and life-renewing. Being a Christian is not the result of ethical choice or lofty ideas, but an encounter with an event, a person, which gives life a new horizon and a decisive direction. It is only when we have established this renewed personal encounter with Jesus Christ that we blossom into an enriching friendship with Ghod and are liberated from our narrowness and self-absorption. Some Christians believe that self-piousness is the way to heaven and spiritual perfection. This is a false remedy which cripples the human heart and our proper nature as Christians. That is why this book examines the some traditional teaches in Christendom as possibnle way of attaining perfection of charity and be transformed.The Dominican theologian St. Thomas Aquinas is well known for his brilliant treatment of central themes of the Catholic faith and theology. Seen in the cast of intellectual genius, many miss the spiritual fervor that welled up in him. Aquinas was not merely a lucid university theologian, he was also a devoted Dominican preacher concerned for the salvation of souls. Aside his reflections on the nature of spiritual perfection in the Summa Theologiae, we have from the Angelic Doctor a separate work entitled On the Perfection of the Spiritual Life. Written in response to contemporary debates on the validity of the religious life as a way of following Christ, it outlines his thoughts on the subject and his defense of his very mode of living. So what did the medieval spiritual master Aquinas say about spiritual perfection in this little book? How can it help us today? This, Moritis with Assumpta tries to examine how one can live a perfect christian life in the midst of worldly distractions. He uses the evangelical counsels in explaining how one ought to live a good life as a married or celibate.
