I do not seek to understand that I may believe, but I believe in order to understand. For this also I believe, –that unless I believed, I should not understand.-- St. Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109)

Mortality and the Purposes of God



He said to me: O mortal, stand up on your feet, and I will speak with you (Ezekiel 2:1).

Not one of us is going to get out of life alive. Years ago when I was in seminary, a professor said that during one of his lectures. I’ve never forgotten it; in fact, I often use it at appropriate times. Life is a journey toward its ending. Cemeteries are our destination.
