  G E Lessing 1729 - 81
  German dramatist and critic

  If God were to hold out enclosed in His right hand all Truth, and in His left hand just the active search for Truth, though with the condition that I should always err therin, and He should say to me: 'choose!' I should humbly take His left hand and say 'Father! give me this one; absolute Truth belongs to Thee alone'

  Your thoughts on how the WBTS would answer please ?

  Hi Wanna,

  And, in fact, the left hand is all we have been offered.

  Thanks for the quote,
