There are other benefits related to the area of the final goals. Appears to be a prince or minister, this does not change the nature of man, but he very much changes his position. The appearance of Christianity in some sense has removed the philosophical wisdom from the throne to exalt over it the theological wisdom and wisdom of the Holy Spirit. If philosophy recognizes this order, its situation is undergoing profound changes. We think that in every great philosophy there is a mystical impulse, which has great opportunities to wrest it out of its ranks. Being in a Christian regime, philosophy knows that she can and must deepen this desire, but that she not given it to fulfill it, it is totally oriented towards the higher wisdom, which separates it from herself and delivers it from a certain weight.
Finally, as mentioned above, man in his nature was struck by the first-born sin, and if this defeat primarily affects the sphere of our love and our attitude towards the ultimate goal, the temporality of our wishes contrary to our reason, namely in the field of the mysterious thinking, perhaps, the echo of this disorder and the obstacles that it generates, which, in turn, brings forth spiritual losses. Grace not only exerts upon us its purely supernatural effect, the divine life that it breathes upon our souls has a healing significance to nature, always struck, but hence healing, since it carries the Savior's clean wounds and carries them to the sinful wounds of the ancient Adam. It would be pointless to expect gratia sanas that she would reward the philosophical habitus or make even the most significant deviations impossible. But it can be said that the more the philosopher is faithful to grace, the easier he will escape from empty deeds and blindness.
After all, it is clear that not only the proposed subjects, but also the mind with its strongest motives, have changed the position of philosophy. It is precisely in this connection that faith guides and guides the philosophy, veluti stella rectrix, without prejudice to its autonomy, or philosophy always judges things according to its own laws, based on the principles and the real criteria.
CONCLUSIONS ON THE CHRISTIAN PHILOSOPHY
These explanations can be extended further, since they affect specific interrelations leading to infinity. We have reduced them to a simple scheme because we only wanted to specify the meaning of our differences between philosophy, viewed from the point of view of its nature and philosophy in terms of its position in the human world. In this way, we see that the expression "Christian philosophy" describes not just an essence, but a whole complex, essence, taken in a certain position. Hence there is a certain inaccuracy of this expression referring to a few very real things. Christian philosophy is not a determined doctrine, although we believe that St. Thomas's teachings could be the most perfect and pure expression for her.
Looks magical and fabulous!
