Softcover. 4th printing. 249, [1] p.; 18 cm. (Meridian books ; M96: first printing 1957) Includes Nihil obstat and Imprimatur `My plan in this book is, then, not to record what I say of God, but what God has said of Himself. This is what justifies my plan and provides its directive. For God has spoken several times. He spoke and He speaks to all men through Creation, which is His handiwork, and through the spirit, which is His image. Then He spoke by His Prophets. And finally He spoke by His Son. Thus it is the same God who made Himself known to the heathen and to the philosophers, to the Jews and to the Christians. But amid all these ways of knowing God, it is desirable to establish some kind of order. And that is really the aim of this book: to place religions and philosophies, the Old Testament and the New, theology and mysticism, in their proper relationship with the knowledge of God. In this book we should also wish to help those who are groping after God, by showing them the ways by which He makes Himself known.' (p. 8) Good ex-lib., sewn, in laminated red and black wrapper.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The truth about angels -- according to the Fathers of the ChurchFrom St. Augustine to John Henry Newman, the greatest among the saints and men of God have lived on familiar terms with the angels; and the Church has always accorded them a very large place in her theology.Recent theologians have dwelt on dry questions about the nature of the angels, but the early Fathers of the Church, with the memory of Jesus fresh in their minds (and of the angels of whom He spoke often) were fascinated with the energetic action of the angels among men and the ways in which the angels have carried out that mission from the instant of Creation through the time of Jesus; and how they will continue their work even unto the end of time.From the works of these early Fathers of the Church, the late French Cardinal Jean Daniélou has drawn forth threads of knowledge and wisdom which he has here woven into a lucid and bright tapestry that shows us who the ministering angels really are, and how--in every instant and in every way--they are working for your salvation and mine.Here you'll find no sentimental cherubs: the Fathers knew that majesty and power cloak actual angels, which is why God gave them the formidable tasks of shepherding not only souls, but entire nations, and the motions of the entire material universe itself.Open these pages to meet the glorious angels as they were known by the Church's greatest saints and theologians: Origen and Eusebius, and Sts. Basil, Ambrose, Methodius, Gregory of Nyssa, Clement of Alexandria, and John Chrysostom (among others).Soon you, too, will find yourself on familiar terms with the angels, and they'll begin to play in your life the larger role that God intends them to play.
