76 Only the Pursuit of Truth Is Practical
Now only the pursuit of truth is practical, only the knowledge of your own corrupted nature is practical, only the ability to satisfy God is practical, while the examination of all those things that you can neither touch nor see is a waste of time. The attitude of someone truly clever should be: I don’t care what God does, or how God treats me; I don’t care how deep I am corrupted, or what my humanity is like; I shall be unwavering in my pursuit of the truth and my pursuit in knowing God. This is the direction of life, this is what man should aspire to attain, this is the only road to salvation. I shall be unwavering in my pursuit in knowing God. This is the direction of life, this is what man should aspire to attain, this is the only road to salvation.
