Quote
"In this too the principle of analogy protects us, for as the self-emptying Christ comes more and more to resemble us in the form of our utter powerlessness and meaninglessness, there remains the ever-greater dissimilarity of the reality of his identity as very God, which must ultimately break through the bonds with which we are fettered. It is a descent in order to rise again, and this dimension is always in view, even and perhaps especially in the most tragic moments."
