THE GRAND-DAD WHO NEVER DIES

THE GRAND-DAD WHO NEVER DIES

Self-destruction is not in God's hands. He somehow survives every suicidal attempt. His infinitude and immortality apparently restrict His omnipotence for He is not potent enough to be less than omnipotent. But not quite really. Even there there the old fellow wins. He so often dies to be reborn at the interface of the real and the apparent that such restrictive appellations fall short of their mark and fail to contain Him within limiting attributes.

This queer complexity of finiteness and infinitude, this uncanny ability to somersault back and forth into and off the limiting line of life makes old grand-dad invincible against all descriptive disorder for He seems to enfold within His being the gamut of all possibilities and impossibilities at once, remaining ever the obscure synthesis of all antithetical elements, the perfect symmetry of all asymmetrical events, the harmony of an inharmonious lot. Inscrutable, indeed, is the Lord. So, let us no more limit Him even in illimitable terms.
