For it is undeniable that 5 1, 7 | which she has received in faith (cf. 1 Th 2:13). At the 6 1, 7 | the origin of our life of faith there is an encounter, unique 7 1, 8 | journey of understanding faith, reflecting on Revelation 8 1, 8 | critique of the time attacked faith and denied the possibility 9 1, 8 | knowledge which is peculiar to faith, surpassing the knowledge 10 1, 8(6) | Constitution on the Catholic Faith Dei Filius, III: DS 3008.~ 11 1, 9 | in the other by divine faith. With regard to the object, 12 1, 9 | supernatural assistance of grace, faith is of an order other than 13 1, 9 | of natural reason; while faith, enlightened and guided 14 1, 13 | limits of our understanding.

Faith sharpens the inner eye, 35 2, 16 | it within the horizon of faith. Therefore, reason and faith 36 2, 16 | faith. Therefore, reason and faith cannot be separated without 37 2, 17 | kind between reason and faith: each contains the other, 38 2, 20 | within the larger horizon of faith: “All man's steps are ordered 39 2, 20 | the Old Testament, then, faith liberates reason in so far 40 2, 20 | because, enlightened by faith, they discover the deeper 41 2, 21 | indispensable link with faith and with what has been revealed. 42 2, 23 | with the assistance of faith, it is capable of accepting 43 2, 23 | upon which the link between faith and philosophy can break 44 2, 23 | border between reason and faith, but also the space where 45 3, 33 | entrust themselves.

Quite 55 4, 38 | which prepared for Christian faith 34 and paved the way for 56 4, 38 | rather the defence of the faith: “The teaching of the Saviour 57 4, 40 | encountered the truth of Christian faith that he found strength to 58 4, 40 | preference to the Catholic faith.

Faith therefore has no fear of 71 4, 43 | brings it to fulfilment,45 so faith builds upon and perfects 72 4, 43 | perfects reason. Illumined by faith, reason is set free from 73 4, 43 | supernatural character of faith, the Angelic Doctor did 74 4, 43 | of this reasonableness. Faith is in a sense an “exercise 75 4, 43 | assenting to the contents of faith, which are in any case attained 76 4, 43 | to the new encounter of faith and reason was a reconciliation 77 4, 43 | at the same time keeping faith with the supreme and inexorable 78 4, 44 | wisdom in its close link with faith and knowledge of the divine. 79 4, 44 | connaturality; it presupposes faith and eventually formulates 80 4, 44 | the basis of the truth of faith itself: “The wisdom named 81 4, 44 | also distinguishes it from faith, since faith accepts divine 82 4, 44 | distinguishes it from faith, since faith accepts divine truth as 83 4, 44 | explores the contents of faith, entering the very mystery 84 4 | drama of the separation of faith and reason~ 85 4, 45 | independent of the contents of faith.

In fact, many philosophical 104 5, 51 | discernment in the light of faith becomes more urgent, even 105 5, 51 | valid and fruitful from faith's point of view and what 106 5, 52 | incompatible with the Christian faith.58~If the Magisterium has 107 5, 52 | which only the light of faith could confer.

Faith will thus be able “to show 149 6, 67 | for the truth. Although faith, a gift of God, is not based 150 6, 67 | needs to be reinforced by faith, in order to discover horizons 151 6, 67(90) | theology, so that today too, faith can fully show the way to 152 6, 69 | alert to the link between faith and culture, claim that 153 6, 69 | demonstrating the universality of faith's content be abandoned. 154 6, 70 | once they had embraced the faith.

One thing is certain: attention 160 6, 75 | the relationship between faith and philosophy, one can 161 6, 75 | with regard to Christian faith. First, there is a philosophy 162 6, 75 | perfects it: the assent of faith, engaging the intellect 163 6, 76 | of the Church, since the faith as such is not a philosophy. 164 6, 76 | conceived in dynamic union with faith.

The truths of faith make certain demands which 176 6, 78 | reason and the power of faith found the most elevated 177 6, 79 | a place where Christian faith and human cultures may meet, 178 6, 79 | stronger conviction that faith grows deeper and more authentic 179 6, 79 | thinking, they believe...
