如果与上帝有真实关系的秘诀，就在于要抵制沾染世俗，甚至是最小的一点沾染，那么我们当然就需要查明“世俗”是由什么组成的，以及它为什么会是上帝的敌人。

If the secret of a true relationship with God is to resist even the smallest contamination of the world, we certainly need to find out what the "world" consists of and why it is such an enemy of God.

如果上帝使你的敌人苦恼，当然你就应该知足了。

If God afflict your enemies, surely that ought to suffice you.

That would be tantamount to creating divine enemies, immortal enemies So God must maintain the upper hand in his struggle with these humans who have learned to defy him. And he maintains the upper hand in this, the fact that they eventually must die.

因为，这相当于创造了一个，旗鼓相当，永生的敌人,所以，上帝在与，这些学会反抗他的人类争斗时,占了上峰，利用他的优势,决定了人类必将死亡的命运。
