We teach the same: "For God on His part is ready to give grace to all men: He wills all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Tim. ii, 4). But they alone are deprived of grace, who in themselves raise an obstacle to grace. So when the sun lights up the world, any evil that comes to a man who shuts his eyes is counted his own fault, although he could not see unless the sunlight first came in upon him." (St. Thomas, Summa Contra Gentiles, III, 160).
"Ah, but you will have to direct that reply to kosta, whose argument leads (I think) to that conclusion"
OK. Kosta, what say ye?
""For God on His part is ready to give grace to all men: He wills all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Tim. ii, 4). But they alone are deprived of grace, who in themselves raise an obstacle to grace. So when the sun lights up the world, any evil that comes to a man who shuts his eyes is counted his own fault, although he could not see unless the sunlight first came in upon him."
Bravo for Aquinas, though I think it might be more patristicly said that God isn't simply ready to pour out His grace on all, He actually does pour it out.
