Is Belief in the Divinity of Jesus a Belief in a Metaphysical Issue?
Certainly not, although we see in life people who studied the New Testament and believed in Christ. But within the human entity itself, we find the transformation that may begin with a change in behavior but moves to what is more sublime than moral behavior: union with Jesus. This is what we see in the books of leaders of the mystical life, East and West—from Anthony the Great in the East to Meister Eckhart in the West. They are a group of those who journeyed from the world of vast knowledge to the reality of personal experience of Him who is closer to us than the heartbeat—the Lord Himself, who shares our existence and came so that we may share in His being and His embodied divine life.
