Summary/Abstract: The universe is an unbroken abyss and an immense unknown, as God cannot be known in His Being, but His presence and work in our lives can be felt and cultivated through a high knowledge and living of the teaching of faith, through liberation from passions and the practice of Christian virtues. Science offers us a partial truth, while religion opens the horizon of our spiritual perfection, communicating eternal and divine truths concerning man’s life and eternal destiny, which is fulfilled only in God only. It teaches us that “the world and its lust pass away, but he that does the will of God remains forever” (1 John 2:17).
