Spirituality is about using our mind. Some truths are too vast for logic.

Why Are Some Truths Too Vast for Logic?

Here are 6 of them:

1. Creation from Nothing

We can imagine something from something.

But how existence comes from nothing?

Only faith can hold that truth.

2. G-d’s Infinite Essence

Infinity as “endless numbers” we get.

But the true endless light, beyond all definition,

is known only through faith.

How Can the World Feel Real and Be Nothing to G-d?

3. Absolute Unity

The world feels real to us.

To G-d, it’s nothing at all.

Living both truths together requires faith.

4. Torah & Commandments

We see wisdom in the commandments.

But that they are G-d’s essence, unconditional love choosing to let us do something for Him, that can’t be explained with logic. It can only be held through faith.

5. The Soul’s Essence

A “piece of G-d Himself” can’t be grasped.

Why Will Our Joy Never End in the World to Come?

6. The Future Reward

Resurrection of the dead. G-d revealed in this world. No mind can explain it.

“In the World to Come, our joy will never end. Because we’ll know: we didn’t just receive it. We helped build it.”

Questions people ask

What truths can we know only through faith?

The article names six: creation from nothing, G-d’s infinite essence, absolute unity, the Torah and commandments as G-d’s essence, the soul’s essence, and the future reward. Each one is too vast for logic, so only faith can hold it, as the post says.

How can something come from nothing?

We can imagine something coming from something. But existence coming from nothing is different. The article says only faith can hold that truth, because logic cannot reach it. Faith is the way we hold a truth our mind cannot picture.

Why can’t logic explain the commandments?

We can see wisdom in the commandments. But the article says they are G-d’s essence, unconditional love choosing to let us do something for Him. That can’t be explained with logic. Logic can show us the wisdom, but only faith holds the love behind it.

What is the future reward in faith?

The article names resurrection of the dead and G-d revealed in this world, which no mind can explain. It says that in the World to Come, our joy will never end, because we will know we did not just receive it. We helped build it.
