Quote by Hans Urs von Balthasar
If God wishes to reveal the love that he harbors for the world, this love has to be something that the world can recognize, in spite of, or in fact in, its being wholly other.
Summary
This quote suggests that if God wants to make his love for the world known, it must be something that the world can understand and perceive, even though it may be completely different from what is known or expected. It implies that God's love is incomprehensible and unique, yet it must be made accessible to humanity so that it can be acknowledged and embraced.
