Love = Theosis

Another softie post that warmed my heart, this one from the Pontifications blog:

You only know God to the extent you love your enemies...This is the real test of “Theosis,” not visions of the Divine Light or any other imaginings of the “spiritual.” This is the teaching of the gospel. We will love as God loves, if we truly dwell in Him. If we love as God loves, then we will know Him.

Read the whole (too brief) message here. It's not filled with the wisdom of the world and will scratch few itching ears. It is, however, the best test of one's heart.
