Description
Just as Thomas Aquinas is the central figure to express Christianity in the Western World, so too has St. John of the Cross become the central figure to express the mystical path to union with God. Equally so, just as Walter Farrell in his monumental work "Companion to the Summa Theologica" has made Thomas’s work understandable to many, so too has Frost Bede’s work, "Doctor of Divine Love" made the collected works of St. John of the Cross in to a fine synthesis for those able to undertake this passage.
He repeatedly begs his readers to remember both to whom and for what purpose he is writing. It is for “the spiritual man,” “the discreet reader,” he whom God would lead into the Night of Faith and of dark Contemplation, not for those beginners, in the ordinary sense of the term, “whom it is necessary to prepare by these discursive apprehensions” of meditation, which are but a remote means to union with God, the A.B.C. of true spirituality.
This work completes the Pilgrim's Pantry Series.
