Morality And The Mystical Body

By Emile Mersch

Book Overview

""Morality and the Mystical Body"" is a philosophical work written by Emile Mersch, a Belgian Jesuit priest and theologian. The book explores the relationship between morality and the mystical body of Christ, which is the collective body of all believers in Christ. Mersch argues that morality is not just a set of rules to follow, but is rather intimately connected to the mystical body of Christ. He contends that the moral life is a participation in the life of Christ and the mystical body, and that the moral virtues are essential for the growth and flourishing of the mystical body. Mersch also explores the concept of sin and its effect on the mystical body, as well as the role of the Church in fostering moral growth and development. Overall, ""Morality and the Mystical Body"" is a profound and thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between morality and the Christian faith.This is a new release of the original 1939 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
