“The flame of the mystic‘s heart is love of God and compassion for all of God‘s creatures […] the gnostic‘s love for humanity engulfs the entire world. Distinctions are of no account in this love. The gnostic invokes God‘s mercy equally on sinners and saints, men and women, and people of all races, nations and religions.
