Today’s readings tackle deep mysteries of origin and truth—from Irenaeus dismantling the illogical myths of the Valentinians, to Augustine’s prayerful exploration of memory, to Aquinas’s argument that the human soul is created together with the body, not before it. Each work confronts confusion with clarity, grounding divine truth in reason, Scripture, and humility (1 Corinthians 1:26–28; Matthew 12:36).

Readings:

Irenaeus, Against Heresies, Book 1, Chapters 18–19 Augustine, The Confessions, Book 10, Chapter 17 (Sections 26–28) Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, Part 1, Question 89, Article 4
