In any case in the world the experience of pain is inevitable and has the function of activating and developing the great love for God.
Above all love
A hidden inheritance
- of Francesco Arista and Antonella Molica
Argument
- → The human experience of pain is objectively inevitable in life in the world, because in it man must born, fall ill and die.
- → In addition, pain has a significant subjective factor, the difference between what you want and what happens, a difference on which man can gradually intervene.
- → If the main purpose of man is within the world, this titanic work is overbearing or passive, always a failure.
- → To win the world, man must have an end beyond the world, and adhere to that end until he considers the secondary world, devoid of true reality.
- → Then man knows God, himself and the world.
- → This path leads man to his real fullness, to minimize the world and any harmful conditioning.
- → The temporariness, fragility, pain and contradiction of being in the world are unacceptable to the divine nature of man.
- → The knowledge of the contrast between my omnipotent and loving nature, and the enormous malignancy of the cosmos, shows you what I have given you from the beginning, my nature.
- → The enormous difficulty that man has to solve is appropriate to his divine potential.
- → The contrast between you and the world, the pain that the world imposes on you, is the stimulus to go beyond.
- → If I, God, love you and allow you to face such a difficulty, my correctness implies that you are immense, divine, similar to me.
- → Your experience of my opposite offers you the possibility to choose me with a love similar to mine, because you are similar to me, divine.
