Saint Bonaventure says: "The Law of the Lord, teaches us the way to live. That is to be done, avoided, believed, prayed for, longed for and feared. It teaches, him to live the blameless and spotless life, how to keep one's promises and how to be sincerely contrite for one's failings. The Law of the Lord teaches contempt for earthly things, and a loathing for all things of the flesh. Finally, if explains bow with whole heart whole soul. and whole mind we are to be converted to Jesus Christ. Compared with the doctrine Of God's Law worldly wisdom is vain and foolish."As long as a man does not fear or love God, no matter how great his reputation for wisdom may be" says St. Bernard, "I shall never consider him wise."
