Notes from Wikiquote

and sinners (will not remain) in their sins | rather, He is going to bring them to a single equal state of perfection in relationship to His own Being — | in a (state) in which the holy angels are now | in perfection of love and a passionless mind. | He is going to bring them into that excellency of will | where it will not be as though they were curbed and not | or having stirrings from the Opponent then | rather, (they will be) in a (state of) excelling knowledge | with a mind made mature in the stirrings which partake of the divine outpouring | which the blessed Creator is preparing in His grace | they will be perfected in love for Him | with a perfect mind which is above any aberration in all its stirrings. | 40.4, p. 175
