About this book
Joseph Pohle approaches divine grace through definitions, theological disputes and questions about human freedom. Adapted and edited by Arthur Preuss, the work separates actual grace, a temporary aid to particular acts, from habitual or sanctifying grace, an enduring state of the soul. Definitions lead into discussions of necessity, salvation and predestination. Chapters on Thomism, Augustinianism, Molinism and Congruism show how theologians have tried to reconcile the gift of grace with free will.
Justification receives detailed attention through questions of faith, inward renewal and the value of good works. Pohle draws on biblical passages, church councils and earlier theological writers, using precise terms to explain the Catholic position. His discussion of Baptism presents spiritual rebirth as a real change within the soul.
