DP 120 A person knows nothing at all of the interior state of his mind

Divine Providence #120

Topics covered:

  • A person knows nothing at all of the interior state of his mind
  • The elements in man’s spirit are even more numerous than those in his body
  • When a person puts away an evil (seemingly a single thing) the Lord puts away the infinite elements present in it

From Chapter 5: “It is a Law of Divine Providence That a Person Put Away as If of Himself Evils as Sins in His External Self, and That the Lord Be Able Only Then to Put Away Evils in His Internal Self and at the Same Time in His External One”
