Those who do not hate their own selfishness and regard themselves as more important than the rest of the world are blind because the truth lies elsewhere

Jesus is the God whom we can approach without pride and before whom we can humble ourselves without despair.

That we must love one God only is a thing so evident that it does not require miracles to prove it.
