Pio Nono Posted February 11, 2006 Author Share Posted February 11, 2006 JMJ 2/11 - Our Lady of Lourdes -Identify the chief characteristics of the School of Alexandria and the School of Antioch. -Explain why it is that we can say that "God suffered on the Cross" but we cannot say that "Christ suffered in His divine nature"; include the [i]communicatio idiomatum[/i] in your answer (btw, we spent five minutes on the communication of idioms in class and I have no idea what it is) -How was Jesus aware of His being sent by the Father on a mission of salvation? What are different views amongst orthodox theologians regarding His messianic consciousness? -Explain the meaning of the [i]admirabile commercium[/i] as a central concept of soteriology. How does (Roch) Kereszty define the three dimensions of this idea? -What is the Satisfaction Theory as formulated by Anselm? What were the responses to it by Abelard and Aquinas? I don't know how I'm going to do on this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to have to flush all this on Tuesday (after the final) and teach myself Christology. He's the only shifty prof I know of, but I don't have time for this stuff.

Brother Adam Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 Oh dang that looks so cool (the questions, that is if he prepared you for them in class). I'm in Christology (undergrad) right now and love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pio Nono Posted February 11, 2006 Author Share Posted February 11, 2006 JMJ 2/11 - Our Lady of Lourdes Roch Kereszty's book [i]Jesus Christ[/i] was the only required texts. The optional texts (Kasper's [i]Jesus Christ[/i], Galot's [i]What About Jesus?[/i] or something like that) are shifty, so I didn't get them. I really want to read Ratzinger's [i]Behold the Pierced One[/i]. I also want to find some good Thomists and get their views on Christology.

shortnun Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 Man..... I'm so bummed that I have to wait until next year to take Christology. Silly scheduling conflicts wouldn't let me take it this semester w/ all my friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
