À propos de cet audio
Clement saw divine training — paideia — as the process of growing from fear to wisdom. The goal was never to terrify but to teach. Augustine knew this too, warning that the world’s pleasures can drown the soul more swiftly than pain ever could. He pleads with Licentius to listen to the voice that calls him out of bondage. Aquinas closes our week with a profound balance: fear is not opposed to love but perfected by it. To fear God rightly is to fear losing Him. Thus even our trembling becomes holy, for it preserves our communion with the One who drives out all lesser fears (1 John 4:18).
Readings: Clement of Alexandria, The Instructor, Book 1, Chapter 7 Augustine, Letter 26 (conclusion) Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, Part 1–2, Question 41, Article 4
