St. Thomas Aquinas is further known for his famous observation that the [[Devil]] cannot withstand mockery.
Saint Thomas wrote many theological and philosophical books, as well as composing several beautiful hymns. Hailed as a masterpiece, his works Summa Theoligiae gives humanity a child like revelation of [[God]]. The book was never completed; after a religious experience, he stopped writing explaining, “All that I have written seems to me like straw compared to what has now been revealed to me.”<ref>[http://www.philosophyofreligion.info/?page_id=103], Philosophy of Religion- Historic Figures</ref> He died three months later at the monastery of Fossanova, one mile from Sonnino, on March 7, 1274
His entire Summa is simple to comprehend, divided into three parts and contains 27 questions. "It can be proved in five ways that God exists." <ref>[http://www.catholicism.org/thomas-aquinas.html], Saint Thomas Aquinas Biography</ref>
The first part <i>Prima Pars</i> (God and what precedes from Him)
The second part <i>Prima Secundae and Secunda Secundae</i> (Law and Grace, Charity and Justice)
The third part <i>Tertia Pars</i> (Christ who as man is our way to God)
