Our Suffering Is Not Worthy The Name

Not Only The Words (vocabula) Which The Holy Spirit And Scripture Use Are Divine, But Also The Phrasing

So Tenaciously Should We Cling To The World Revealed By The Gospel, That Were I To See All The Angels Of Heaven Coming Down To Me To Tell Me Something Different, Not Only Would I Not Be Tempted To Doubt A Single Syllable, But I Would Shut My Eyes And Stop My Ears, For They Would Not Deserve To Be Either Seen Or Heard.

This Life Therefore Is Not Righteousness, But Growth In Righteousness, Not Health, But Healing, Not Being But Becoming, Not Rest But Exercise. We Are Not Yet What We Shall Be, But We Are Growing Toward It, The Process Is Not Yet Finished, But It Is Going On, This Is Not The End, But It Is The Road. All Does Not Yet Gleam In Glory, But All Is Being Purified.

When Questioned Whether The Blessed Will Not Be Saddened By Seeing Their Nearest And Dearest Tortured Answers, "not In The Least."

We Cannot Attain To The Understanding Of Scripture Either By Study Or By The Intellect. Your First Duty Is To Begin By Prayer. Entreat The Lord To Grant You, Of His Great Mercy, The True Understanding Of His Word. There Is No Other Interpreter Of The Word Of God Than The Author Of This Word, As He Himself Has Said, "they Shall Be All Taught Of God" (john 6:45). Hope For Nothing From Your Own Labors, From Your Own Understanding: Trust Solely In God, And In The Influence Of His Spirit. Believe This On The Word Of A Man Who Has Experience.
