Happy (almost) Trinity Sunday!

JOKE-OGRAPHY: Though not related biologically, tradition tells us that St. Joseph was a devoted father to Jesus. This would've included teaching Jesus the skills necessary to join his trade. In this cartoon, Joseph starts by introducing Jesus to a simple math problem: 1+1+1. The conventional solution would be 1+1+1=3, but Jesus writes 1+1+1=1. This is a reference to the Trinity, a mystery of faith where three Persons (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) are one God. Joseph can't comprehend or fault Jesus's divine logic, so he decides to move on from math to a different topic altogether.

“Pride is the hidden conduit that links the two diametrically opposed forms of hopelessness, despair and presumption. At the nadir of despair, the self-destructive and perverse rejection of fulfillment borders on the most extreme form of the not less destructive delusion of presumption-the affirmation of nonfulfillment as though it were fulfillment.”

-Josef Pieper, On Hope

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Saint Augustine the Wise?

“No.”

I thought not. It's not a story the Jesuits would tell you. It's an old Augustinian legend. Saint Augustine...was a Doctor of the Church so powerful and so wise, he could use efficacious grace to exegete scripture...to define...orthodoxy. He had such a knowledge of predestination and grace, he could even keep the ones he cared about...from pelagianism.

"He could actually...save people from heresy?"

The efficacious grace of God is a pathway to many abilities...some consider to be unnatural.

"Wh–what happened to him?"

He became so holy, the only thing he was afraid of was...the return of pelagianism. Which eventually, of course, it did. Unfortunately, he taught the scholastics everything he knew. Then the scholastics killed orthodoxy in its sleep. It's ironic. He could save others from pelagianism, but not his successors.

"Is it possible to learn the true Faith?"

Not from a Molinist.
