The Means by Which
We Know God
We know him by two means:
First, by the creation, preservation, and
government of the universe, since that universe is before our eyes like a
beautiful book in which all creatures, great and small, are as letters to make
us ponder the invisible things of God: his eternal power and his divinity, as
the apostle Paul says in Romans 1:20.
All these things are enough to convict men and to
leave them without excuse.
Second, he makes himself known to us more openly by
his holy and divine Word, as much as we need in this life, for his glory and
for the salvation of his own.
Hypocrisy is not
knew to mankind. Hypocrisy becoming a virtue, yes.
Following the same procedure already fueled
against the first article of this hypocrite confession of faith, we find its
suite to be as much without foundations
in Christ as the Devil got any of it in God.
Where is Jesus in
this declaration for fools? We know God because we have eyes to see the stars
of heavens and birds and things?
So, what happen
with those whose brains work much higher than the divines’ when talking about
Nature of the Universe, preservation and
government of the universe? They have no eyes? Reading this confession of
supernatural hypocrisy it seems as that only the Christians have got eyes!
Einstein had none? And what about Aristotle, had he? It looks as everybody have
eyes, but the Protestants had got super-eyes!
The Christian Man
believes in the existence of God, and not of the God of the Muslims, or the
Hindus, but in the God of Christ, because the Power of Jesus, and only because
His Power. The Christian Faith is based upon the Rock of the Infinite Power of
the Son of God. Not the stars of heavens, not the oceans of the earth, not the
plants and the wonders of the creation, but the Power of the Son of God is the
Root, Foundation and Door of the Christian Faith.
Where we find in
this Second Article this Truth in the name of which the Apostles died, and the
hundreds of thousands of Roman Catholics gave their life up to be witness of
that Power before the History of their Day and the Nations of the Future?
Of course, Paul
said : “For
since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and
divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made,
so that people are without excuse”; but Paul was speaking about Judgment Day,
not about the Christian Faith. The Christian Faith is not related to the
Creation of God, but to the Uncreated Conception of His Son. And this Fact is
what makes Christian Religion the Religion of Eternity and Infinity.
Of course that from the beginning Mankind
and God had been linked by the Effect of God’s Perfection as Creator, and from
this Perfection, jumping from Mature to our eyes and senses, the Idea of the
Existence of a Supreme Being, “God”, came all by itself to men and nations. But
that the destruction of that Perfection in the house of Mankind performed the
ruin of that Link to the point of Absolute Atheism, only a madman and a fool
will deny. This ruin was the Work of the Devil. Turning into a Murderer, being
its goal the annihilation of the entire Human Kind, in order to hit this target
the Devil had to ruin the Perfection of God in the House of Man; neutralizing
the perfection in the outside by the Chaos in the inside the target was hit.
And though men and nations did their best to stick to the Idea, the falling of
mankind in the pits of hell predisposed the Future to Absolute Atheism. To take
back His Creature, the Human Race, to the House of His Fatherly Love, God had
to rebuild His Perfection in the
House of Man. And this was the Work of
Jesus, His Son.
Accordingly this Confession, by which the
Son of God was sent away and put aside from the Foundation of the Christian
Faith, and this Faith as the Work of the Uncreated Son of God, this Article is
pure Hypocrisy. The Christian Man knows because He believes, and he believes
because the Perfection of God, a Perfection which the Creation was unable to
transmit us no more, came to us through a new channel : The Vision of the
Uncreated son of God Himself. In His Work the Roman Builders of the Catholic Church saw the
Perfection of God, as Father. And this Perfection was transmitted from
Christian to Christian, from nation to nation, in the Communion of the Catholic
Church, till our days.
It is not the “by the creation,
preservation, and government of the universe”, that the Christian Man believes
in God, but by the Work of Jesus Christ, in whom we saw, and see, the Father,
the Son and the Indestructible, Infinite and Eternal Union in the One and Only,
Saint Spirit of God.
What now? O yes,
once Jesus have been blown away from the Root of the Christian Faith, the
Confessor had to annihilate the Witness by whose Blood and Flesh the Vision of
the Perfection of God fought its way through the centuries and the millennia,
this is to say, the Catholic Church, the Owner and Eternal Bearer of the Book
of God. The conclusion from this Article is clear as the sun : The Belgian
Confessor needs no Jesus, he has the Creation, needs no Church, he has the
Bible. As a matter of fact the belgian confessor
needs God just because He’s got the Power, and being terrified by His Power he
kneels before that Power, but not before the God that is Love.
Being the Founder
of the Catholic Church, Jesus had to be put aside, naturally.
