Both halves of that sentence are true, and almost nobody can hold them at once.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLose the majesty, and God becomes small - a life coach, a warm feeling, a projection of your own preferences with a halo on. He is comfortable, and He cannot save you, because He is not larger than you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLose the love, and God becomes a threat - the watcher, the scorekeeper, the vast power that is monitoring you and is not pleased.
