“For that same reason, human science (knowledge) cannot discover God; for human science is but the backward undoing of the tapestry-web of God's science, works with its back to him, and is always leaving him--his intent, that is, his perfected work--behind it, always going farther and farther away from the point where his work culminates in 👉🏼revelation.👈🏼
Doubtless it thus makes some small intellectual approach to him, but at best it can come only to his back; science will never find the face of God; while those who would reach his heart, those who, like Dante, are returning thither where they are, will find also the spring-head of his science.
‪𝐀𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐝, 𝐚𝐬 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡 𝐢𝐬 𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐝; 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡, 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞.‬
It discovers a little of the way God walks to his ends, but in so doing it forgets and leaves the end itself behind…the very process of his work is such a leaving of God's ends behind. It is a following back of his footsteps, too often 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘶𝘭𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘵 𝘵𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘱𝘴.
To rise from the perfected work is the swifter and loftier ascent. If the man could find out why God worked so, then he would be discovering God; but even then he would not be discovering the best and the deepest of God; for his means cannot be so great as his ends.”
— George MacDonald
Unspoken Sermons, 1867

Sometimes people need to hear the simple truth even if it scares them. Yes, God is love and blessings to those who are on the straight and narrow path, but for those who are straying, the severity of God must be reminded them. Don’t be afraid to speak the simple truth of God’s word [just because] it might prick the heart of the lost or straying. Yes, it can be uncomfortable for you or for them, possibly even painful, but if it gets them on track and saves them from eternal damnation, is it not worth it? For the pricking is meant to cause us to believe and to heed the truth of the Word of God; a little humbling discomfort now is better then eternal torment in hell’s fires later. True love would believe, true love would warn, true love would goad if need be, and true love would fear for those who are not walking in the truth.

It is completely in character for Percy to say he has some dumb questions, then ask incredibly valid questions that no one has brought up till now

If you watch the interview, you'll know that the girl here and another one sat in their tank and shelled kibbutz for 17 hours straight, and yet they're being hailed as heroes.
From the beginning, we knew Israeli forces were firing at their own people. We knew that Hamas doesn't have the weaponry to result the destruction we've seen. But since nobody believed, now the truth keeps unfolding about Oct 7.
Watch the interview with Yasmin Porat who was at one of the kibbutz's. She said Hamas treated them humanely, she said they were scared but they [hamas] didn't abuse them. The interviewer was taken aback. The interviewer asks if "terrorists" killed all the bodies lying in the ground but she said: "NO, it was UNDOUBTEDLY our forces." Her exact words. Google her name and listen to the interview.

I simultaneously look forward to and dread the possible interactions to come with Wilbur's return.

Thinking about how Aziraphale invented lying.
Because Crowley did not lie when he tempted Eve— he told her exactly what would happen, if she took a bite of the fruit of knowledge. She would know the difference between good and evil. He did not lie about that.
But Aziraphale gave away the sword appointed to him by God Herself, and then spun the very first lie to protect himself from her wrath.
Regardless of whether it was a small lie, it was a lie all the same, and a lie directly to God. He, an angel, told the very first lie, thereby inventing the act of lying.
Wouldn’t it be funny if I did the good thing and you did the bad one?

Truth has power. And if we gravitate towards it, maybe we do so because those truths are already written deep within us. And when we hear the truth, even if we don't understand it, we feel that truth resonate within us ... vibrating with our unconscious wisdom. Perhaps the truth is not learned by us, but rather, the truth is re-called .. re-membered .. re-cognized .. as that which is already inside us.

It [is] utterly pointless to search for truth anywhere else [but] from God and His written Word... receiving truth from God will refresh your soul [as you] believe, reverence, trust, and obey God and His every Word. That includes the uncomfortable words also: not just the loving and encouraging ones, but also the hard words of correction and direction that prick our hearts. [Yet these sharp words can save a soul– their convictions are meant to] make it move forward when it doesn’t want to, or to keep it on a straight and narrow path when it wants to veer off. [This saving purpose even in such hard words illustrates] that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

so unbelievably happy and relieved to see Xie Lian after all those years, alive and well
gods, that’s why i love donghua so MUCH
because THIS IS THE LOOK you’d have after 800 years of devotion, of searching, hoping, longing, loving
they don’t try to make him aloof and sexy in that yaoi-seme kinda way
they just make him TRUE
