Contents Mysterium fidei: the mystery of faith proposed in scripture -- Dogma datur christianis: the truth is given to Christians by tradition and the Magisterium -- Eucharistic conversion and the categories "substance" and "quantity" -- "This is my body": faith preserves the intellect from deception -- "You are my friends": Christ's Eucharistic presence, central token of Christ's surpassing friendship
Summary "This book reexamines Thomas Aquinas's teaching on Eucharistic transubstantiation, arguing that it is an exercise of sacra doctrina (holy teaching) that intends to demonstrate in theology and support with philosophy the simple idea that "transubstantiation" affirms the truth of Christ's words at the Last Supper. As well as delving into Aquinas's own writings, the author incorporates insights of modern theologians and the recent teachings of the Catholic Church"-- Provided by publisher
