Summa Contra Gentiles, First Book (On God)

by Saint Thomas Aquinas

The Summa Contra Gentiles is a theological treatise written by Thomas Aquinas between 1259 and 1265. It is divided into four books, the first of which deals with the existence and nature of God. Aquinas argues for the existence of God based on reason and natural revelation, and he explores various attributes of God, such as his omnipotence, omniscience, and goodness. Aquinas also discusses the relationship between God and creation, and he argues that the world is contingent upon God's will.
