Summary: "It is always dangerous to speak of God" Origen
Comment: Enlightened Cardinal: Jean Danielou
Beloved Orthodox Catholic, champion of "Nouvelle Theologie," Peritus of Vatican II, participated in the renewal of the major part of the mystical body of Christ, his beautiful bride, the pure Church, unlimited by space or time. This is what Jean+, Abba Danielou learned from the Church fathers, first of all: Origen, by the grace of our Lord greatest Church Doctor (Didaskalos, or teacher of Faith), second only to St. Paul.
The French Jesuit patristic scholar, was a major devotee in the movement that championed the liberation of pre Vatican Papal Roman Church to the today Catholic Church, through reintroduction of the early Church "Ever-New Theology" through the mysticism of the great Church of Origen, Evagrius, Anthony, and Orthodox biblical teachings of Athanasius, Cyril, and Severus.
Dangers to speak of God:
"He is what we say, and yet He is not. He is all that is and nothing that is." Dionysius Pseudo-Areopagite.
"It is true that all we say of Him seems utterly unworthy, in comparison with what He is; and accordingly we fear that what we say may conceal more than it reveals of His nature, and may be more of a hindrance than a help. We should wish, too, after everything we have said, to say the opposite. Because at one and the same time it seems that all we say of Him is true, and also untrue." Danielou's foreword
Is it necessary to speak of God?
"For He is always unknown, He is always paradoxically, well known." J. Danielou adds; "Emmanuel Berl said recently that he had never met an atheist, only men who believe in God, without knowing exactly what they believe." This applies very well to our beloved and dear brothers and sisters, heirs to the faith of their and our common father Abraham. The Lord Adonai, Allah or Elohim was made known to us through and in his Only begotten Son.
Danielou's Plan:

1. the God of the religions
