For to us Trinitarians (if I may say it with reverence)--to us God Himself is a society.

It is indeed a fathomless mystery of theology, and even if I were theologian enough to deal with it directly, it would not be relevant to do so here.

Suffice it to say here that this triple enigma is as comforting as wine and open as an English fireside; that this thing that bewilders the intellect utterly quiets the heart: but out of the desert, from the dry places and the dreadful suns, come the cruel children of the lonely God; the real Unitarians who with scimitar in hand have laid waste the world.

For it is not well for God to be alone.
Again, the same is true of that difficult matter of the danger of the soul, which has unsettled so many just minds.

To hope for all souls is imperative; and it is quite tenable that their salvation is inevitable.
It is tenable, but it is not specially favourable to activity or progress.
