Jesus among the doctors - Johann von Sandrart
I thank you, O Father, Lord of Heaven and of the Earth, for having Hidden these things from the wise and the learned and for having revealed them to the little ones.[1]
In "The Gospel as It Was Revealed to Me"
- I thank you, O Father, Lord of Heaven and Earth, for having Hidden these things from the wise and the learned and for having revealed them to the little ones.[2]
- But just as for Victory, man acts with Science. He mutilates the wings that would allow him to reach the knowledge of the Supernatural, by giving him keys to open so many secrets of the knowable and of creation.[3]
- Being learned does not mean being saints nor possessing the Truth.[4]
- The greater the science, the smaller the faith, because the learned believe themselves exempt from the simple and sincere faith which believes by force of love and not thanks to science.[5]
In Other Works of Maria Valtorta
The Notebooks of 1943
- Dictation of December 2: What those who believe they know everything know is a handful of sand compared to the sand on the shore. The lights of God are inexhaustible and inexhaustible, and there is not one that is useless or inaccurate. Those who 'know' are therefore half-illiterate, for whom I cannot be a Master, because in their stupid Pride they believe they do not need a master and they allow themselves to criticize the work of God, who uses a child to instruct the learned.[6]
