The Virgin Mary's Revolution: Love and Do What You Will Gonzalo T. Palacios

Saint Augustine?s phrase, ?Love, and do what you will,? explains the author's intention in writing The Virgin Mary?s Revolution. Palacios maintains that the story of the Virgin Mary revolutionized the old order and ushered a new order on Earth. This new order has guided the historical evolution of humanity from the instant the Jewish girl accepted Love as her Lover. Mary and her Divine Lover restored us once again to our place in His Kingdom. Unfortunately, most of us still lack faith and trust in her Lover?s Word. We actually fear Love, that unknown and in-visible-but-omnipresent God of ours. Rather than accepting the freedom of love, we remain slaves to the Mosaic Law, refusing the discipline and self-control that the Law of Love demands of each of us.
