Faith

Some say that their faith has ascended to the next level and become knowledge. Could this be the case if “all languages pass away and all knowledge will turn.” No knowledge will lead anyone to believe or eradicate faith. And this is best demonstrated by the example of Aristotle, who was one of the greatest minds in the history of mankind. By virtue of his knowledge, he discovered that the ultimate principle of being must be the Supreme Good, the Metaphysical One God.

The Greeks even placed altars on the One God the Unknown. When he saw this, St. Paul told the Greeks in a sermon at Areopag that he saw that the Greeks were a very pious nation. But the Greeks made a thud. Paul and his Hebrew Only God, who is not absolute, but a Person. Aristotle on his deathbed did not pray for healing to the One Metaphysical God, whom his mighty reason taught him. But he prayed for healing to Zeus, in whom he believed.

No knowledge has eradicated faith. And no knowledge will lead anyone to believe. For faith is a gift and a grace. Is a man full of faith and at the same time of pride towards unbelievers worth more than unbelievers and full of humility towards believers? Is this a pointless question that maniacs ask questions? “So, as you can see, it’s a bit ridiculous. But not cheerful” (J. Brolik).
