Aquinas: The Reason for the Sacraments

Aquinas: The Reason for the Sacraments Excerpt Through the institution of the sacraments man, consistently with his nature, is instructed through sensible things; he is humbled, through confessing that he is subject to corporeal things, seeing that he receives assistance through them: and he is even preserved from bodily hurt, by the healthy exercise of the sacraments.  More Thomas Aquinas.  Summa Theologica . Trans. Fathers of the English Dominican Province. London: Burns Oates & Washbourne. Print.
