""All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus" (Rom. 3:23-4). The author investigates the ways in which this Christian doctrine of grace and nature is understood and deployed in the works of John Wesley and Thomas Aquinas. What kind of beings are humans? In what state of nature was the first humanity? And what effect did original sin have on it? How does the grace from God relate to that fallen nature? What does it mean for human beings to live a life of grace? These are the central questions "Distinct, but Inseparable" brings to its reading of Wesley and Thomas. The author's parallel reading of Wesley and Thomas has established a whole array of theological continuities between their theologies of grace and nature, and this leads us to the historical fact that the soteriological problem of grace and nature is the only problem that Wesleyans and Catholics have gone into their separate ways with little sharing of a common problem, criteria of judgment, or glossary of technical terms and abbreviations. Although a great many of the mysteries of the Christian faith that the author deliberately excluded from his work remain unresolved, "Distinct, but Inseparable" has yielded an abundance of surprising commonalities between Wesley and Thomas, and this may well provide a clue to solving that "only" problem between Wesleyans and Catholics"--
