He understands God not as a perfect being but as the fundamental dynamic reality of love without which nothing else could and would exist. In his view God is not a first cause or a necessary being but the infinite or eternal actuality of creative and transforming love: a love that is self-communicating and the source of all life and love in heaven and on earth |
