The unexplored spiritual power is the missing key to knowledge. And again, this spiritual power cannot be proven but can only be affirmed through faith. The believing person, however, will also be able to provide the proof, that is, the utterances of the spirit will be proof for him, whereas the unbelieving person will also deny the obvious working of the spirit, and therefore will never be able to recognise it. A boundary has been drawn here by God's wisdom. Whoever crosses this boundary in faith has also found the key to knowledge. But the unbeliever must be content to stand outside of knowledge unless he wants to accept the knowledge that the believer imparts to him. Faith is therefore the gate, and beyond this gate works the spirit out of God.... However, anyone who does not want to enter through this gate will never be able to feel the divine spirit and its power, for he will deny himself access to that which testifies to God.... Nor will he ever be able to intellectually explore the working of the spirit. And this is precisely what rejects the unbeliever who wants to have everything proven that he is supposed to believe. Faith does not ask for proof, it affirms according to the feelings of the heart. What seems incomprehensible to the believer is confirmed by God's love, wisdom and omnipotence.... He recognises God and therefore no longer looks for evidence, but finds confirmation of what he should believe in the essence of the eternal Deity.... And the feeling of the heart gives him precise guidelines, and thus the spirit out of God expresses itself by causing the heart to accept or reject what is offered to it. And the spirit out of God truly instructs the heart correctly. It will know exactly how to distinguish truth from lies, and thus be able to recognise correctly. But information can never be given to a person whose will does not make use of the key to knowledge. He stands before a closed gate which is impenetrable and does not allow the slightest insight. And there is no other way for him to enter the area behind the gate, and the gatekeeper himself, faith, has to open the door for him or it will remain closed to him forever....
Amen
