Given an opportunity
God as Love restores to man the freedom which he has lost, the freedom to take possession of his own authenticity.169 We may question the validity of the Word, but in doing so it is we who are questioned. Remember, shunning idolatry means that God, the Word, Logos, Truth are not to be considered as a pre-existent entities. In questioning the validity, we are confronting ourselves, now and at each moment, in a way that is analogous to Jesus’ confrontation with the Jews who chose to reject him.Forget the idolatry of churchy religionism; we are each given an opportunity of understanding ourselves through the analogy which is the death and resurrection of Jesus. Death and resurrection mark the end of ordinary reality and reunion with the Divine.
