35-39.
According to Thomas Aquinas, the law of nature is a bridge that connects human-law and eternal law. The law of nature is considered to be metaphysical, sacred and unchanged on the one hand, and with, humane, and instability on the other. The of nature law can interact with human law of and eternal law, which will result in mutual understanding and double characters. Thus, the natural law functions to guide man’s secular practice with sacred spirits. In this way, the essence of Aquinas s idea of transition from divinity to human nature and the link between the two are realized through the organic integration of the sacred and the secular.
