Wisdom from Pope Francis

 
 
 

When this dependence of the creature on the Creator is denied, this relation of love, one basically relinquishes man’s true greatness and the bulwark of his liberty and dignity. Thus the defense of man and of what is human against the ideological reductions of power proceeds today once again by way of establishing man’s obedience to God as the limit of obedience to the state.

—Pope Francis

from the book, Faith and Politics

LIMITS AND LIBERTY OF OBEDIENCE

Pope Francis, in his foreword, states that one of the major themes in the thought of Joseph Ratzinger is the relationship between faith and politics. Ratzinger explored various aspects of this subject in books, speeches, and homilies throughout his career. This is the only book that collates all of his most significant works on political themes inside one volume.
