Discourses on the State and Grandeurs of Jesus - The Ineffable Union of the Diety with Humanity

Composed in his maturity, this work expresses Pierre de Berulle's theology of the Man-God, whose self-emptying has enabled us to become ‘capable’ of God. In contrast to other spiritual writers, Berulle's focus is on the faithful soul's participation in what he calls Jesus' ‘states’, or inner dispositions.
