“We make assertions and denials of what is next to [the Divine Nature], but never of It, for It is both beyond every assertion, being the perfect and unique cause of all things, and, by virtue of Its preeminently simple and absolute nature, free of every limitation, beyond every limitation; it is also beyond every denial.” ChristianNextCausesSimplePerfectVirtueDivineUniqueAll ThingsAbsolutesLimitationDenialOrthodoxOrthodox ChristianAssertionDivine Nature Author:Pope Dionysius
“Trinity!! Higher than any being, any divinity, any goodness! Guide of Christians in the wisdom of heaven! Lead us up beyond unknowing and light, up to the farthest, highest peak of mystic scripture, where the mysteries of God's Word lie simple, absolute and unchangeable in the brilliant darkness of a hidden silence. Amid the deepest shadow they pour overwhelming light on what is most manifest. Amid the wholly unsensed and unseen they completely fill our sightless minds with treasures beyond all beauty.” MindLightChristianLyingHeavenSimpleSilenceDarknessMysteryHigherGoodnessHighestShadowAbsolutesGuidesBrilliantScriptureTreasureDivinityOrthodoxManifestOverwhelmingUnseenOrthodox ChristianMysticTrinityLight UpUnchangeableUnknowingMystery Of God Author:Pope Dionysius
“[God] is perfect not only insofar as He is absolute perfection, defining perfection in Himself and from His singular existence and total perfection, but also because He is far beyond being so. He sets a boundary to the boundless and in His total unity He rises above all limitation. He is neither contained nor comprehended by anything. He reaches out to everything and beyond everything and does so with unfailing generosity and unstinted activity.” DoeChristianPerfectExistenceActivityPerfectionAbsolutesUnityBoundariesLimitationGenerosityOrthodoxReach OutDefiningRise AboveBoundless Author:Pope Dionysius
