David Bentley Hart Quotes

To Say That God Elects To Fashion Rational Creatures In His Image, And So Grants Them The Freedom To Bind Themselves And The Greater Physical Order To Another Master - To Say That He Who Sealed Up The Doors Of The Sea Might Permit Them To Be Opened Again By Another, More Reckless Hand - Is Not To Say That God's Ultimate Design For His Creatures Can Be Thwarted. It Is To Acknowledge, However, That His Will Can Be Resisted By A Real And (by His Grace) Autonomous Force Of Defiance, Or Can Be Hidden From Us By The History Of Cosmic Corruption, And That The Final Realization Of The Good He Intends In All Things Has The Form (not Simply As A Dramatic Fiction, For Our Edification Or His Glory, Nor Simply As A Paedogogical Device On His Part, But In Truth) Of A Divine Victory.
