"Therefore close your eyes, and all disputations about heaven and earth will vanish. Indeed, just as heaven and earth were nothing 6,000 years ago, so now, if you close your eyes, as though they had been reduced to nothing, they will present no further obstacle to faith and the words of Christ. For the Word, which created all things, must be compared with the creature, which, in comparison with it, is nothing at all.
“He commanded and they were created,” says Ps. 148:5. It is always God’s wonderful practice to make all things out of nothing and again to reduce all things to nothing. And one should accustom oneself to this practice and cling to the Word, in order that those things which disturb and hinder faith, no matter how great and splendid they are, may be removed from our eyes."
