Thomas Aquinas Quotes

The Ways Of God "Be Ye Perfect As Your Heavenly Father Is Perfect."1 Holy Scripture Never Orders And Never Counsels Us To Do The Impossible. By These Words, Then, The Lord Jesus Does Not Command Us To Accomplish The Very Works And Ways Of God, Which No One Can Attain In Perfection. But He Invites Us To Model Ourselves On Them, As Much As Is Possible, By Applying Ourselves To Imitate Them. We Can Do This With The Help Of Grace And We Should Do So. And As The Bishop John Said, Nothing Is More Suitable To Man Than To Imitate His Creator, And To Carry Out, To The Degree That He Is Able, The Will Of God.
