18. Anyone can come to an inner assurance about the presence of infinite things in God--anyone, that is, who believes that God is a person; because if God is a person, he has a body and everything that having a body entails. So he has a face, torso, abdomen, upper legs, and lower legs, since without these he would not be a person. Since he has these components, he also has eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and tongue. He also has what we find within a person, such as a heart and lungs and the things that depend on them, all of which, taken together, make us human. We are created with these many components, and if we consider them in their interconnections, they are beyond counting. In the Divine-Human One, though, they are infinite. Nothing is lacking, so he has an infinite completeness.

We can make this comparison of the uncreated Person, who is God, with us who are created, because that God is a person. It is because of him that we earthly beings are said to have been created in his image and in his likeness (Genesis 1:26-27).

795. This being so, and since I have day by day talked with nations and peoples of this world, not only those from Europe, but also those from Asia and Africa, as well as those of other religions, I shall add as a supplement to this book a short description of the condition of some of them. It needs to be grasped that the condition in the spiritual world both of each nation and people in general and of each individual in particular depends on their acknowledgment of God and their worship of Him. All who at heart acknowledge God, and from this time on who acknowledge the Lord Jesus Christ as God the Redeemer and Saviour, are in heaven. Those who do not acknowledge Him are below heaven, and are there taught; those who accept the teaching are raised to heaven. Those who reject it are cast down into hell; these include also those who, like the Socinians, have approached only God the Father, and those who, like the Arians, have denied the divinity of the Lord's Human. For the Lord said:

I am the way, truth and life; no one comes to the Father except through me.

And He said to Philip, who wanted to see the Father:

He who sees and knows me sees and knows the Father, John 14:6ff.
