The *world* even the *churches* speak of love, as if all it needs is love. This is true. But only God *is* love. Only God *is* Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. There is no other independent category of “love,” that is not first a predicate of God’s eternal life within itself. So, when the world, and even the churches, speak of love, they ironically bear witness against themselves; that is, if they claim that all we need is love, but are thinking of that in purely horizontal, human, and profane ways (which they are). The world’s only salvation is to be 𝑖𝑛ℎ𝑎𝑏𝑖𝑡𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜 𝐷𝑒𝑖 (inhabiting God); this is, finally, to inhabit true love; this is what the world, and even the churches need. They speak this word over themselves, as the high-priest prophesied about Jesus and didn’t know it. The world’s hope, our only hope, is to be unioned with the Father’s “love child” for us; even so, as He came as a babe in a manager.
