QUESTION 110

HOW ANGELS ACT ON BODIES

(In Four Articles)

We now consider how the angels preside over the corporeal creatures.

Under this head there are four points of inquiry:

(1) Whether the corporeal creature is governed by the angels?

(2) Whether the corporeal creature obeys the mere will of the angels?

(3) Whether the angels by their own power can immediately move bodies

locally?

(4) Whether the good or bad angels can work miracles?
