==Teaching by denomination== ===Catholic Church=== The [[Catechism of the Catholic Church]] teaches that faith, hope, and love (charity) "dispose Christians to live in a relationship with the Holy Trinity. They have God for their origin, their motive, and their object β God known by faith, hoped in, and loved for His own sake."<ref>{{Cite web | title=Catechism of the Catholic Church, paragraph 1840|url=https://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/__P68.HTM |access-date=2022-10-18|website=vatican.va|language=en}}</ref> ===Moravian Church=== Among essential beliefs, the [[Moravian Church]] teaches that "God creates; God redeems; God blesses. And we respond in faith, in love, and in hope." As such, Moravian Christians teach to judge themselves "by how deep our faith is, how expansive our love is, and how life affirming our hope is."<ref>{{cite web |title=In Essentials, Unity: Understanding the essential things |date=24 August 2018 |url=https://www.moravian.org/2018/08/in-essentials-unity-understanding-the-essential-things/ |publisher=[[Moravian Church]] |access-date=28 July 2021 |language=English}}</ref> ===Anglican Communion=== Churches of the Anglican Communion also follow Augustine and Aquinas. "Faith is a matter of knowledge of God which perfects the intellect... Hope is a matter of the perfection of the will... Love is a matter of perfection itself as love is the perfection of all powers."<ref name=episc/> [[Richard Hooker]] said regarding faith, that its "principal object is that eternal verity which hath discovered the treasures of hidden wisdom in Christ"; of hope that its "highest object is that everlasting goodness which in Christ doth quicken the dead"; of charity, that its "final object is that incomprehensible beauty which shineth in the countenance of Christ the Son of the Living God".<ref>{{cite book |last=Hooker |first=Richard |title=Of the Laws of Ecclesiastical Polity |year=1597 |at=I.xi}} as quoted in {{cite book |last=Kirk |first=Kenneth E. |title=Some Principles of Moral Theology |publisher=Longmans, Green and Co.
