Thomas Aquinas Study Circle

"It is because the contemporary alternatives seem so one-sided and are not more evidently solutions to the problems which Thomas faced, and partly solved, that we return to him and to the tradition of theology and philosophy in which his Summa Theologiae appears: theology as the science of the first principle and this as the total knowledge of reality in its unity." -- Wayne J. Hankey, God in Himself (Oxford University Press, 1987), p.159.

The immutability and eternity of God

We continue with our study of what we can know of the essence of God.

Q9 has two articles on His immutability:
  1. Is God altogether immutable?
  2. Does it belong to God alone to be immutable?
Q10 has five articles on His eternity, which follows on His immutability:
  1. What is eternity?
  2. Is God eternal?
  3. Does it belong to God alone to be eternal?
  4. Does eternity differ from time?
  5. What is the difference of aeviternity, as there is one time, and one eternity?
