What Could Begin To Deny

A Revelation Is To Be Received As Coming From God, Not Because Of Its Internal Excellence, Or Because We Judge It To Be Worthy Of God; But Because God Has Declared It To Be His In As Plain And Undeniable A Manner As He Has Declared Creation And Providence To Be His.

Hell Is Nothing Else But Nature Departed Or Excluded From The Beam Of Divine Light.

We Have All Of Us Free Access To All That Is Great, And Good, And Happy, And Carry Within Ourselves A Key To All The Treasures That Heaven Has To Bestow Upon Us. We Starve In The Midst Of Plenty, Groan Under Infirmities, With The Remedy In Our Own Hand; Live And Die Without Knowing And Feeling Anything Of The One Only God, Whilst We Have It In Our Power To Know And Enjoy It In As Great A Reality As We Know And Feel The Power Of This World Over Us; For Heaven Is As Near To Our Souls As This World Is To Our Bodies; And We Are Created, We Are Redeemed, To Have Our Conversation In It.

If Religion Commands Universal Charity, To Love Our Neighbors As Ourselves, To Forgive And Pray For All Our Enemies Without Any Reserve; It Is Because All Degrees Of Love Are Degrees Of Happiness, That Strengthen And Support The Divine Life Of The Soul, And Are As Necessary To Its Health And Happiness, As Proper Food Is Necessary To The Health And Happiness Of The Body.

The Eyes Of Our Souls Only Then Begin To See When Our Bodily Eyes Are Closing.
