Bonaventure, on Rom 8:35

“Who then shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation? or distress? or famine? or nakedness? or danger? or persecution? or the sword?”

“Concerning the summit of faith, which is love, the Apostle says: Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress—all the way to the words, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. And, in another passage, being rooted and grounded in love. That is the firmament of heaven. The heavens proclaim your wonders, that is, the marvels of the soul which they feel within them. Such experiences make faith most secure.”
