You say that we 'must affirm that the whole object of our devotion is the person of Jesus Christ, whose redemptive love is most perfectly symbolized by the corporeal heart.' Jesus is fully divine and fully human; through His human heart, does He not also therefore love us with divine as well as human love? If so, then how is it that 'we must conclude that the devotion to the Sacred Heart is almost exclusively a devotion to the human love of our Savior'? Are you asserting that as flowing from the fact that He has two natures and therefore two loves, that these loves are not only distinct, but also separable, so that His humanity radiates only His human love? I would have thought that His human love was informed by and transfigured in some way by His divine love. Otherwise, I'm not sure how His purely human love would be special and venerable. But, maybe it is so simply by the fact of it being perfect.<br /><br />In any event, your doctrine greatly elevates the respect due to the human love of Jesus, and this love is wonderful to contemplate.<br /><br />Regards,<br />YanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578980753063154388.post-16542364218375641492013-06-09T15:56:19.069-07:002013-06-09T15:56:19.069-07:00wow...just...wowwow...just...wowMarko Ivančičevićhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04579400863718513875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578980753063154388.post-54999969271442317472013-06-07T13:26:43.719-07:002013-06-07T13:26:43.719-07:00Dear Father.
