Msgr. Pope on St. Thomas Aquinas' Teachings on the Incarnation

"As we approach the Christmas feasts, it is good for us to ponder aspects of the Incarnation. In this post, I would like to consider what St. Thomas Aquinas teaches about its fittingness. God was not radically 'required' to do everything as He did. We do well to ponder why the manner of the Lord's incarnation is 'fitting,, why it makes sense."

In recent commentaries, Monsignor Charles Pope (pastor of Holy Comforter-Saint Cyprian Parish, Washington, DC) reflected on some of the teachings of Saint Thomas Aquinas on the Incarnation.
