The201 - Wk3 - Anselm

The201 - Wk 3 - Lect2


Anselm

Jesus and Sin

Jesus is just the opposite of Adam - he is the exemplary thing (Pelagius).

Thomas Aquinas (Summa THeologiae, III, q.48, a.-1-6)

Christ, through all his passion has merited salvation for all.

Christ also had made satisfaction for us superabundantly.

Christ also brings about our salvation by sacrifice.

Christ's passion is also a redemption/ransom of sinful humanity from slavery to the devil.

The resurrection of Christ is the efficient and exemplary cause of our resurrection.
