If you say, Show me your God, I will say to you, Show me what kind of person you are, and I will show you my God. … God is seen by those who have the capacity to see him, provided that they keep the eyes of their mind open. All have eyes, but some have eyes that are shrouded in darkness, unable to see the light of the sun. Because the blind cannot see it, it does not follow that the sun does not shine. The blind must trace the cause back to themselves and their blindness…
--From the book addressed
to Autolycus
by Saint Theophilus of Antioch, bishop
