“There exists a powerful energizing force in the spiritual life principle. All energy began with the Creator, who infused it not only in all natural processes, but also into that higher form of nature called human nature. The more closely, then, that a person identifies with the Creator, the more surely that person will experience within his or her own nature the process of re-creation which operates in all creation.” HumansPersonsSpiritualFormEnergyForceProcessNaturalPowerfulPrinciplesHuman NatureCreationHigherCreatorOnenessSpiritual LifeEnergizing Author:Norman Vincent Peale

“The true contrast between science and religion is that science unites the world and makes it possible for people of widely differing backgrounds to work together and to cooperate. Religion, on the other hand, by its very claim to know “The Truth” through “revelation,” is inherently divisive and a creator of separatism and hostility.” PeopleKnowsWorldHandsTogetherReligionHuman NatureClaimsCreatorBackgroundsRevelationsWorking TogetherCooperationContrastScience And ReligionHostility Author:Hermann Bondi

“There are no perfect human beings! Persons can be found who are good, very good indeed, in fact, great. There do in fact exist creators, seers, sages, saints, shakers, and movers...even if they are uncommon and do not come by the dozen. And yet these very same people can at times be boring, irritating, petulant, selfish, angry, or depressed. To avoid disillusionment with human nature, we must first give up our illusions about it.” PeopleIfsGivingFirstsHumansPersonsFactsFoundHuman BeingsPerfectHuman NatureGiving UpIllusionPerfectionAngryVery GoodSaintCreatorBoringSelfishDozenSageUncommonDisillusionmentIrritatingSeersShakers Author:Abraham Maslow
“There's an aspect of human nature in which we want to think we're better than somebody else. They're a different color. They speak a different language. They have a different name for the Creator.

“'Go to My brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto My Father, and your Father, and to My God, and your God' (Jn. 20:!7). He is our Father by grace through the Spirit of adoption (Rom. 8:15), but His Father by nature on account of His divinity. Similarly, He is our God as the creator of our human nature, but His God by reason of the dispensation whereby He became man. He made these distinctions so that we might understand the difference.” MenHumansMadeReasonMightChristianSpiritFatherDifferencesGraceHuman NatureAccountsCreatorDistinctionDivinityOrthodoxAdoptionOur FatherOrthodox ChristianBrethren Author:Gregory Palamas
