A Candid Inquiry into the Controversies among Evangelicals · §533

Annotatio IV §.IX: Augustine (4) — exclude local presence and oral handling; body in one place

Click or tap any sentence to jump there. The side buttons skip a paragraph.

Augustine (4): local presence and oral handling shut out — until the age ends the Lord is above, yet His Truth is here with us.

The Lord’s risen body must be in ONE PLACE; His truth is everywhere. Absent yet present: body in heaven, Majesty not withdrawn. We cannot handle Him in heaven with hand or mouth — only touch by Faith.

Latin

Idque (4.) cum exclusione præsentiæ localis & participationis oralis: Ita enim Tract. 30. in Johannem pergit: Donec seculum finiatur, sursum est Dominus, sed tamen, hic etiam nobiscum est Veritas Domini. CORPUS ENIM DOMINI, IN QUO RESURREXIT, UNO LOCO esse oportet, veritas autem ejus ubique diffusa est. Et Tract. 50. in Johann. Christus absens etiam præsens est: Corpus enim suum intulit cœlo, Majestatem non abstulit mundo. Et Tract. I. in Epistolam Johannis. Dominum jam in cælo sedentem MANU (ore) contrectare non possumus, sed Fide contingere.
