កុំធ្វើជាទីផ្គាប់ចិត្តរបស់បុគ្គលពាល។ ពាលគឺជាមនុស្សដែលផ្ទុយពីសប្បុរស សប្បុរសស្គាល់ហេតុនៃសេចក្តីវិនាស និងហេតុនៃសេចក្តីចំរើន ក្រោយពីដឹងថានេះជាហេតុនៃសេចក្តីវិនាសទំលាក់ចុះ ហើយងាកមកចាប់យកហេតុនៃសេចក្តីចំរើន, ស្គាល់ថាការងារនេះគួរធ្វើម្នាក់ឯង ឬការងារនេះត្រូវចូលរួមគ្នាធ្វើ រាល់ហេតុទាំងនេះវាផ្តើមចេញតាមរយៈការងាររបស់អ្នកមិនមែនតាមរយៈពាក្យសម្តីនោះទេ។ ↗

The ultimate difference between God's wisdom and man's wisdom is how they relate to the glory of God's grace in Christ crucified. God's wisdom makes the glory of God's grace our supreme treasure. But man's wisdom delights in seeing himself as resourceful, self-sufficient, self determining, and not utterly dependent on God's free grace. ↗

. . . I had found the edge. The place where you unstrap all your fastenings to the earth, to what you are what you have been, where you flame out on the edge of the spheres, and the sun and moon become eclipsed and the world below is as dead and remote and without interest as if it were glazed with ice. ↗
