Without the free flow of the Holy Spirit, religion becomes a tribal sorting system, spending much time trying to define who’s in and who’s out-who’s right and who’s wrong.

The more light and goodness you can see, the more Trinitarian you are. When you can see as Jesus and my father st.

Remember, mystery isn’t something you cannot understand- it is something you can endlessly understand! There is no point at which you can say “I’ve got it.” Always and forever, mystery gets you.
