In his letters, Paul consistently evokes charity as the avenue to both human and divine communion. If the magnitude of charity was of the upmost importance to early Christians, so were those sins that aimed to distract Christians from acting based on love. Taking seriously the efforts of Paul, and later Thomas Aquinas, to expose and root out the sins against charity, Matthew Levering reclaims the centrality of love for moral, and in fact all, theology. As Levering argues, the practice of charity leads to inner joy.  aReligion -- Christian -- Theology -- Ethics  aSin -- Christianity  aThomas, Aquinas, Saint, 1225?-1274 Ethics4 uhttps://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/12882/b.jpgyCover Image  aNguyễn Thị Kim Phượng  a231010TKH  c12733d12733  00104070aTVCDbTVCDd2026-01-20g0.00l0pTVCD-12733v0.00yBK
