THE NEW CREATION OF INDIVIDUAL MAN.

Empire of Rome the summary of ancient civilisation
How St. Peter and St. Paul dealt with it
Reconstruction of society with two forces, the knowledge of

God and of the human soul

[ocr errors]

Sevenfold idea of God: 1. in His Unity; 2. in His Person-
ality; 3. in His Paternity; 4. as Incarnate; 5. as the Food
of man; 6. as redeeming him; 7. as glorifying him, pre-
sented as a whole to man

The existing civilisation a stranger to this idea

Every Christian virtue derived from it.

How Christianity viewed human morality taken as a mass :

1. In the motive given to it

[merged small][ocr errors][ocr errors]

How the whole is pervaded by the fact of the Incarnation
From the above idea of God springs the distinction between
natural and supernatural good

[ocr errors]

And the virtues of Faith, Hope, and Charity
Charity, especially, rooted in the Incarnation
Newness of this virtue to the heathen

Moral purity of the Christian grounded on the Incarnation
And the love of husband and wife.
