The Merit Of Persons Is

Divine Love Is Perfect Peace And Joy, It Is A Freedom From All Disquiet, It Is All Content And Happiness; And Makes Everything To Rejoice In Itself.

Man Needs To Be Saved From His Own Wisdom As Much As From His Own Righteousness, For They Produce One And The Same Corruption. Nothing Saves A Man From His Own Righteousness, But That Which Delivers Him From His Own Wisdom.

If Our Life Is Not A Course Of Humility, Self-denial, Renunciation Of The World, Poverty Of Spirit, And Heavenly Affection, We Do Not Live The Lives Of Christians.

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 Obedience Of Men Is To Imitate The Obedience Of Angels, And Rational Beings On Earth Are To Live Unto God, As Rational Beings In Heaven Live Unto Him.
