QUOTE : It is only in the mode in which faith embodies itself that Christians differ from the followers of other religions. … [T]he nature of faith … is everywhere the same. … All blessings … it accumulates on itself … ; all curses, all hardship and evil it casts on unbelief. … [F]or what God rejects man must not receive, must not indulge me; - that would be a criticism of the divine judgement. … as faith anathematises, it necessarily generates hostile dispositions, - the dispositions out of which the persecution of heretics arises. … God, it is true, loves all men; but only when and because they are Christians, or at least may be and desire to be such. … Love to man as man is only natural love. Christian love is supernatural, glorified, sanctified love … Faith abolishes the natural ties of humanity; to universal, natural unity, it substitutes a particular unity.
