 1967/09/20 TL[c]from MertonYour outline looks very good to me, and there is not much that I would add to it. Perhaps just  critiques - God has not spoken his will in the past, but is constantly speaking it - question of quietism, and passivity versus action - "Apostles not preparing their own defense in advance" and letting the Spirit provide - the prophets - Christ as "master listener", but also Mary, "Or don't they mention her these days? Just kidding."
