What we most truly are in the depth of our soul refuses to surrender to force – force from within no more than force from without. That is what St. Augustine meant when he said that Christ’s command to love God is not obeyed if it is obeyed as a command. That is what St. Paul meant when he said, "Though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor and though I give my body to be burned and have not charity, it will profit me nothing.
