Excerpt from Lectures by the Most Reverend Henry Edward Manning, Archbishop of Westminster: The Four Great Evils of the Day; The Sovereignty of God; The Grounds of Faith God, who is the perfect and infinite intelli gence - that is, the infinite and perfect reason created man to His own likeness, and gave him a reasonable intelligence, like His own. As the face in the mirror answers to the face of the beholder, so the intelligence of man answers to the intelli gence of God. It is His own likeness.

The revelation offaith is a discovery of itself by the Divine Bel son, the unveiling of the Divine Intelligence, and the illumination flowing from it cast upon the in telligence of man; and if so, I would ask, how can there be variance or discord? How can the illumination of the faith diminish the stature of the human reason? How can its rights be inter feted with? How can its prerogatives be vio lated? Is not the truth the very reverse of all this? Is it not the fact that the human reason is perfected and elevated above itself by the illu mination of faith?
