“The Devil's methods of opposition are those of alliance and antagonism, and the only serious one is the first. Let us beware of it. Do not let us imagine that we can take into our fellowship and enlist under one banner men who simply affirm truth about Jesus, unless in their own lives there is an absolute loyalty to the Lord Christ. Antagonism is the creation of force for the kingdom of God. Put a man in prison for Christ's sake, and the earthquake will surely follow, and the work will spread.” MenFirstsJesusForceChristLordImagineCreationSeriousDevilAbsolutesMethodPrisonSakeSpreadLoyaltyKingdomsOppositionImagine ThatFellowshipKingdom Of GodAlliancesEarthquakesBannerAntagonism Author:G.

“God will not accept a divided heart. He must be absolute monarch. There is not room in your heart for two thrones. You cannot mix the worship of the true God with the worship of any other god more than you can mix oil and water. It cannot be done. There is not room for any other throne in the heart if Christ is there.

“Animals are God's creatures, not human property, nor utilities, nor resources, nor commodities, but precious beings in God's sight. ...Christians whose eyes are fixed on the awfulness of crucifixion are in a special position to understand the awfulness of innocent suffering.

“Our self (Soul) is maya (an illusion) where it is merely individual and finite, where it considers its separateness as absolute; it is satyam (truth) where it recognizes its essence in the universal and infinite, in the Supreme Self, in paramatman (God). This is what Christ means when he says, "Before Abraham was, I am" (i.e. before Abraham was God, who is the same that is in my soul - I am That.)” MeanSoulSelfGodSpiritualityIndividualChristIllusionEssenceUniversalAbsolutesInfiniteSupremeMy SoulFiniteAbrahamSeparateness Author:Rabindranath Tagore
“Jesus Christ was God - the Personal God become man. He has manifested Himself many times in different forms and these alone are what you can worship. God in His absolute nature is not to be worshipped. Worshipping such God would be nonsense. We have to worship Jesus Christ, the human manifestation, as God. You cannot worship anything higher than the manifestation of God. The sooner you give up the worship of God separate from Christ, the better for you.” MenGivingHumansDifferentWould BeFormJesusChristHe ManHigherGiving UpWorshipJesus ChristAbsolutesManifestationNonsenseWorship GodWorship Jesus Book:Complete Works Source: Complete Works
“Jesus Christ does not teach us a spirituality “of closed eyes”, but one of “alertness”, one which entails an absolute duty to take notice of the needs of others and of situations involving those whom the Gospel tells us are our neighbours. The gaze of Jesus, what “his eyes” teach us, leads to human closeness, solidarity, giving time, sharing our gifts and even our material goods.” NeedsGivingHumansDoeEyeSpiritualityJesusChristSituationTeachMaterialsDutyJesus ChristAbsolutesNeighborHis EyesGoodsSolidarityInvolvingClosenessAlertnessNeeds Of OthersClosed EyesGiving Time Author:Pope Benedict XVI
