P. 33
Adam becoming afraid of God after the fall was the greatest
11
disaster. Note: the word disaster literally means disconnected
from the stars; Jesus fixed this in Lk 10:20 He says rejoiced
your names are written in the heavens. It will take time,
obviously, for God to effect this new heartbeat but just having
this vision is crucial. Our souls live on meaning the way our
body lives on food and the DW teaching gives us this
12
meaning. This vision moves us from a Catholic focus more on
simply being free from sin by the Sacraments, which is good,
but a focus on Divinisation. Note: the scripture below speaks of
us being not merely created by God but begotten like Jesus!
1 John 5:20 “We know that anyone who has been begotten
by God does not sin,
because the begotten Son of God protects him, and the Evil
One does not touch him”.
See Also CCC God Reveals His "Plan of Loving Goodness"
para. 51 "It pleased God, in his goodness and wisdom, to
reveal himself and to make known the mystery of his will. His
will was that men should have access to the Father, through
Christ, the Word made flesh, in the Holy Spirit, and thus
become sharers in the divine nature."

Saint Cyril of Alexandria below.
11 We can speculate that God would have forgiven Adam then
and there- but Adam hid. Is not that our story with the graces of
Redemption thinking it’s too good to be true so we hide from
the grace?

Proverbs 29:18 “people perish for lack of vision” and Psalm
41 “Deep is calling on deep, in the roar of waters”.
