Résumé

This book offers an unprecedented, in-depth exploration of one of the most pivotal doctrines in Christian theology through the eyes of history's greatest scholastic thinker. Blending rigorous scholarship with accessible narrative, this book unpacks Aquinas's profound teachings on justification-the divine act that transforms sinners into saints-by carefully examining the interplay of grace, faith, charity, and human cooperation.
Drawing on Aquinas's monumental Summa Theologiae, biblical texts, and patristic tradition, the book reveals how justification is far more than a legal declaration; it is a real, ontological renewal of the soul that empowers believers to live virtuously and grow in holiness. From the infusion of sanctifying grace at baptism, through the sustaining power of the sacraments, to the indispensable roles of hope and perseverance, the reader journeys through Aquinas's integrated vision of salvation as both divine gift and human response.
This work also situates Aquinas's doctrine amid the theological controversies of his day-challenging Pelagianism, nominalism, and later Protestant reformers' views-while highlighting its enduring relevance in contemporary theological debates and spiritual life. Rich in historical context, philosophical insight, and theological depth, the book appeals to scholars, clergy, and seekers alike who wish to understand how Aquinas's balanced synthesis can illuminate faith, reason, and the human quest for eternal life.
Engaging, authoritative, and timely, Thomas Aquinas and the Justification Process bridges centuries of Christian thought, offering fresh clarity on grace, faith, and the transformative journey of justification that continues to shape Christian identity today.
