| 5609 Secondly, as to the object; in respect of which two acts of the reason have to be noticed. One is the act whereby it apprehends | |
| 5610 the truth about something. This act is not in our power: because it happens in virtue of a natural or | |
| 5611 supernatural light. Consequently in this respect, the act of the reason is not in our power, and cannot be commanded. The | |
| 5612 other act of the reason is that whereby it assents to what it apprehends. If, therefore, that which the reason apprehends | |
| 5613 is such that it naturally assents thereto, e.g. the first principles, it is not in our power to assent or dissent to the like: | |
| 5614 assent follows naturally, and consequently, properly speaking, is not subject to our command. But some things which are | |
| 5615 apprehended do not convince the intellect to such an extent as not to leave it free to assent or dissent, or at least suspend | |
| 5616 its assent or dissent, on account of some cause or other; and in such things assent or dissent is in our power, and is subject | |

| 8080 <b>I answer that,</b> As is evident from what has been said above ( | |
| 8081 <a href="#FS_Q19_A3" id="FS_Q19_A10-p8.1" shape="rect">AA[3]</a>,5), the will tends to its object, according as it is proposed by the reason. Now a thing may be considered in various ways | |
| 8082 by the reason, so as to appear good from one point of view, and not good from another point of view. And therefore if a man's | |
| 8083 will wills a thing to be, according as it appears to be good, his will is good: and the will of another man, who wills that | |
| 8084 thing not to | |
| 8085 be, according as it appears evil, is also good. Thus a judge has a good will, in willing a thief to be put to death, because | |
| 8086 this is just: while the will of another---e.g. the thief's wife or son, who wishes him not to be put to death, inasmuch as | |
| 8087 killing is a natural evil, is also good. | |
| 8088 </p><p id="FS_Q19_A10-p9"> Now since the will follows the apprehension of the reason or intellect; the more universal the aspect of the apprehended | |
| 8089 good, the more universal the good to which the will tends. This is evident in the example given above: because the judge has | |
| 8090 care of the common good, which is justice, and therefore he wishes the thief's death, which has the aspect of good in relation | |
| 8091 to the common estate; whereas the thief's wife has to consider the private, the good of the family, and from | |
| 8092 this point of view she wishes her husband, the thief, not to be put to death. Now the good of the whole universe is that which | |
| 8093 is apprehended by God, Who is the Maker and Governor of all things: hence whatever He wills, He wills it under the aspect | |
| 8094 of the common good; this is His own Goodness, which is the good of the whole universe. On the other hand, the apprehension | |
| 8095 of a creature, according to its nature, is of some particular good, proportionate to that nature. Now a thing may happen to | |
| 8096 be | |
| 8097 good under a particular aspect, and yet not good under a universal aspect, or vice versa, as stated above. And therefore it | |
| 8098 comes to pass that a certain will is good from willing something considered under a particular aspect, which thing God wills | |
| 8099 not, under a universal aspect, and vice versa. And hence too it is, that various wills of various men can be good in respect | |
| 8100 of opposite things, for as much as, under various aspects, they wish a particular thing to be or not to be. | |
| 8101 </p><p id="FS_Q19_A10-p10"> But a man's will is not right in willing a particular good, unless he refer it to the common good as an end: since even the | |
| 8102 natural appetite of each part is ordained to the common good of the whole. Now it is the end that supplies the formal reason, | |
| 8103 as it were, of willing whatever is directed to the end. Consequently, in order that a man will some particular good with a | |
| 8104 right will, he must will that particular good materially, and the Divine and universal good, formally. | |
| 8105 Therefore the human will is bound to be conformed to the Divine will, as to that which is willed formally, for it is bound | |
| 8106 to will the Divine and universal good; but not as to that which is willed materially, for the reason given above. | |
| 8107 </p><p id="FS_Q19_A10-p11"> At the same time in both these respects, the human will is conformed to the Divine, in a certain degree. Because inasmuch | |
| 8108 as it is conformed to the Divine will in the common aspect of the thing willed, it is conformed thereto in the point of the | |
| 8109 last end. While, inasmuch as it is not conformed to the Divine will in the thing willed materially, it is conformed to that | |
| 8110 will considered as efficient cause; since the proper inclination consequent to nature, or to the particular | |
| 8111 apprehension of some particular thing, comes to a thing from God as its efficient cause. Hence it is customary to say that | |
| 8112 a man's will, in this respect, is conformed to the Divine will, because it wills what God wishes him to will. | |
| 8113 </p><p id="FS_Q19_A10-p12"> There is yet another kind of conformity in respect of the formal cause, consisting in man's willing something from charity, | |
| 8114 as God wills it. And this conformity is also reduced to the formal conformity, that is in respect of the last end, which is | |
| 8115 the proper object of charity. | |

| 8117 dicendum quod, sicut ex praedictis patet, voluntas fertur in suum | |
| 8118 obiectum secundum quod a ratione proponitur. Contingit autem | |
| 8119 aliquid a ratione considerari diversimode, ita quod sub una ratione | |
| 8120 est bonum, et secundum aliam rationem non bonum. Et ideo voluntas | |
| 8121 alicuius, si velit illud esse, secundum quod habet rationem boni, | |
| 8122 est bona, et voluntas alterius, si velit illud idem non esse, | |
| 8123 secundum quod habet rationem mali, erit voluntas etiam bona. Sicut | |
| 8124 iudex habet bonam voluntatem, dum vult occisionem latronis, quia | |
| 8125 iusta est, voluntas autem alterius, puta uxoris vel filii, qui non | |
| 8126 vult occidi ipsum, inquantum est secundum naturam mala occisio, est | |
| 8127 etiam bona.</p><p>Cum autem voluntas sequatur apprehensionem rationis vel | |
| 8128 intellectus, secundum quod ratio boni apprehensi fuerit communior, | |
| 8129 secundum hoc et voluntas fertur in bonum communius. Sicut patet in | |
| 8130 exemplo proposito, nam iudex habet curam boni communis, quod est | |
| 8131 iustitia, et ideo vult occisionem latronis, quae habet rationem | |
| 8132 boni secundum relationem ad statum communem; uxor autem latronis | |
| 8133 considerare habet bonum privatum familiae, et secundum hoc vult | |
| 8134 maritum latronem non occidi. Bonum autem totius universi est id | |
| 8135 quod est apprehensum a Deo, qui est universi factor et gubernator, | |
| 8136 unde quidquid vult, vult sub ratione boni communis, quod est sua | |
| 8137 bonitas, quae est bonum totius universi. Apprehensio autem | |
| 8138 creaturae, secundum suam naturam, est alicuius boni particularis | |
| 8139 proportionati suae naturae. Contingit autem aliquid esse bonum | |
| 8140 secundum rationem particularem, quod non est bonum secundum | |
| 8141 rationem universalem, aut e converso, ut dictum est. Et ideo | |
| 8142 contingit quod aliqua voluntas est bona volens aliquid secundum | |
| 8143 rationem particularem consideratum, quod tamen Deus non vult | |
| 8144 secundum rationem universalem, et e converso. Et inde est etiam | |
| 8145 quod possunt diversae voluntates diversorum hominum circa opposita | |
| 8146 esse bonae, prout sub diversis rationibus particularibus volunt hoc | |
| 8147 esse vel non esse.</p><p>Non est autem recta voluntas alicuius hominis | |
| 8148 volentis aliquod bonum particulare, nisi referat illud in bonum | |
| 8149 commune sicut in finem, cum etiam naturalis appetitus cuiuslibet | |
| 8150 partis ordinetur in bonum commune totius. Ex fine autem sumitur | |
| 8151 quasi formalis ratio volendi illud quod ad finem ordinatur. Unde ad | |
| 8152 hoc quod aliquis recta voluntate velit aliquod particulare bonum, | |
| 8153 oportet quod illud particulare bonum sit volitum materialiter, | |
| 8154 bonum autem commune divinum sit volitum formaliter. Voluntas igitur | |
| 8155 humana tenetur conformari divinae voluntati in volito formaliter, | |
| 8156 tenetur enim velle bonum divinum et commune, sed non materialiter, | |
| 8157 ratione iam dicta.</p><p>Sed tamen quantum ad utrumque, aliquo modo | |
| 8158 voluntas humana conformatur voluntati divinae. Quia secundum quod | |
| 8159 conformatur voluntati divinae in communi ratione voliti, | |
| 8160 conformatur ei in fine ultimo. Secundum autem quod non conformatur | |
| 8161 ei in volito materialiter, conformatur ei secundum rationem causae | |
| 8162 efficientis, quia hanc propriam inclinationem consequentem naturam, | |
| 8163 vel apprehensionem particularem huius rei, habet res a Deo sicut a | |
| 8164 causa effectiva. Unde consuevit dici quod conformatur, quantum ad | |
| 8165 hoc, voluntas hominis voluntati divinae, quia vult hoc quod Deus | |
| 8166 vult eum velle.</p><p> Est et alius modus conformitatis secundum rationem | |
| 8167 causae formalis, ut scilicet homo velit aliquid ex caritate, sicut | |
| 8168 Deus vult. Et ista etiam conformitas reducitur ad conformitatem | |
| 8169 formalem quae attenditur ex ordine ad ultimum finem, quod est | |
