" "The man who abides in the will of God wills nothing else than what God is, and what He wills. If he were ill he would not wish to be well.

He is free and gone out from himself, and from all that he receives, he must be free. If my eye is to discern colour, it must itself be free from all colour. The eye with which I see God is the same with which God sees me. My eye and God's eye is one eye, and one sight, and one knowledge, and one love.

Not in such a way as if we had not sinned, but rather it wipes them away and drives them out, as if they had never existed.
