The principle of good faith as introduced by the Romans was refined by the rise of Christianity, development of ecclesiastical courts and the development of Scholasticism in the 11th–13th centuries. Thomistic philosophy regards good faith as a precept of natural law, and con sequently as a precept of all laws, both canon and secular.
