Companions of the Way (Evening)I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
THE fact that a revelation is progressive is no argument that it is not Divine; it is, in fact, only when the free current of the religious life is dammed up that it turns into a swamp, and poisons human society.
Of course, we must be ready to admit with all humility that our notions of God are probably unworthy and distorted enough; but that is no reason why we should not follow the light that we have, or mistrust it on the ground that it is "too good to be true."
