True religion is the discovery and fulfillment of the meaning of
life through the acceptance of divine mystery. The God who created
us is infinitely transcendent, yet by ineffable grace He makes
Himself known to mortal human beings. We catch glimpses of God
through His universal creation. We glean a partial knowledge of God
through His universal laws. We hear the voice of God speaking
through our consciences. And we feel His omnipotent existence
through human expressions of love, mercy, compassion, and justice.
And yet, in spite of these things, God is still holy mystery. He is
not a riddle to be solved, but an Infinite reality to be worshipped
and adored. And with humble hearts, human beings can experience the
Lord of creation in mystical depth. For through the simple but
sublime message of the Gospel, God has made it possible for finite
human creatures to enter into His eternal embrace. By the power of
the Cross, we can indeed know Him Who surpasses all knowing. From
the Introduction] MYSTERY and MEANING is a compilation of
inspirational quotes, mystical prose, and philosophical polemics
from the mind and heart of Gebre Menfes Kidus ("Servant of the Holy
Spirit"). The author's words provide a unique and valuable
perspective on many of the vital religious, social, and moral
issues of our time. Gebre Menfes Kidus balances contemplative
reflections with impassioned argument, leaving the reader
challenged and inspired. Herein is edification and enlightenment
for the philosopher, the theologian, the spiritual seeker, and the
lay Christian. The author addresses a variety of topics, such as: +
Orthodox Theology + Spiritual Warfare + Mysticism + Social Justice
+ Metaphysics + Christian Pacifism + Biblical Commentary + Human
Rights + The Teachings of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church
