2288 The nature of the eternal deity....
April 3, 1942: Book 32
The essence of the eternal deity cannot be grasped by the human intellect but is more comprehensible to a loving heart, for in order to fathom God the human being has to be filled with love, since love is the fundamental substance of the eternal deity and like can only be comprehended by like. If the human being shapes himself into love then nothing will be strange or inexplicable to him anymore, and thus he will also be able to penetrate the essence of the eternal deity, for it is his spirit which introduces him to knowledge and his spirit can give him complete enlightenment because he himself is part of the eternal deity.... God is in Himself light and power, that is, omniscient and omnipotent.... He is omnipresent.... He is love in the highest potency.... He is a being Who unites all merits in Himself, Who is therefore supremely perfect.... He is unlimited, i.e. bound neither to time nor to space, nowhere is His beginning and His end.... What He wills happens.... He knows about every creature in the world, and His spirit rules the whole universe, and thus the spirit of God always and everywhere expresses itself.... love, wisdom and power.... this is the beginning. Love gave life to everything that exists. Wisdom gave every work of creation its task, and the power of God ensures the existence of what love brought into being. Without power, the love and wisdom of God would be an empty concept, for nothing could be realized because it requires power. Power, however, would not allow anything perfect to come into being if wisdom had not been the determining factor in creation, which gave every thing purpose and goal, otherwise nothing perfect could be conceived. But God is supremely perfect and therefore everything that has come into being from Him will also be perfect and have a certain spiritual order. The essence of God is something exceedingly perfect and yet inexplicable to man, for earthly laws completely switch off and man is not receptive to the knowledge of supernatural laws. Therefore, he will only be able to explain and affirm the essence of God when he has left his earthly body shell and has himself entered the realm of the spirits. Then all earthly thoughts fall away and the soul is now better able to fathom the essence of the eternal deity....
Amen
