 Summa Theologica (FP_Q42_A3)
Therefore, in the divine persons there is no order of nature.
Reply to Objection 3: The order of nature means not the ordering of nature itself, but the existence of order in the divine Persons according to natural origin.
Therefore it is not subject to order; and order of nature does not exist in it.

 Dionysius the Areopagite: Celestial Hierarchy
Therefore the first Order of the holy Angels possesses above all others the characteristic of fire, and the abundant participation of Divine Wisdom, and the possession of the highest knowledge of the Divine Illuminations, and the characteristic of Thrones which symbolizes openness to the reception of God.
The prophet was taught by the Angel who was leading him to light that the divine purification, and all the other divine activities shining forth through the First Beings, are imparted to all the others in the measure of the fitness of each for the divine participations.
For we cannot say of these, as we can of the Angels, that the Order of the holy Powers is the last of all; moreover, the higher Orders of beings, indeed, have part in the illuminations of the lowest, but the last by no means possess those of the first.

 Reginald Garrigou-Lagrange, O.P.
Providence is the conception in the divine intellect of the order of all things to their end; and the divine governance, as St. Thomas observes (ibid., ad 2um), is the execution of that order.
It is providence or the supreme reason of the order in things, by which every creature has been directed to its own particular end and finally to the ultimate end of the universe, which is the manifestation of the divine goodness.
According to their view, the divine essence is merely the sum of all the perfections; there can be no question of seeking a logical order among them, since they are simply different names for the same transcendent reality.

 Leo XIII and Pius XII: Government and the Order of Religion
The second principle was that the state--the order of human law, and government as its effective author--is part of the moral universe, subject to the law of God; hence his theme of the divine law as "the principle of the whole juridical order" (principium universi iuris: Libertas).
It is the distinction between the order of divine law, natural and revealed, and the order of human law; between ethical and theological principle and legal rules; or, if you will, between principles and their application.
Therefore this faith and this faith alone is by divine law to be the public religion of mankind--the faith of individual men and the faith of organized societies.

 Leo XIII and Pius XII: Government and the Order of Religion (1955)
This is the constitutional principle that Leo XIII opposed to the sectarian Liberal dogma that the state is beyond good and evil; that it is a law unto itself; that it may, on the principle that it is itself the Divine Majesty, "separate" its legal enactments from the order of divine law.
In contradiction, Leo XIII insists that the legal equation of truth with error and of right with wrong violates the principle of the whole order of law, which is precisely the distinction fixed by the moral law between truth and error, right and wrong.
It ought therefore to be sufficiently clear that Leo XIII always consistently adhered to his political principle—that the action of government is singly toward the purposes of government, and that the motive and measure of its action are furnished by the necessities of the common good.

 Divine Providence in Misfortunes
Thus we are told that the Divine providence operates especially through the ultimate or lowest things of order, (AC 6493) and that the Divine inflows or influences a man most effectively through the Divinely provided, orderly things of his natural life.
The final end in view is that by these humiliations through misfortune, man may see the Divine providence in all things, and derive from all the events and circumstances of his life the spiritual goods and truths, the hidden lessons of eternal life which the Lord strives to impart to him as the true blessings.
Third, every man is provided with a certain civil society and environment in which he lives - his country and community with their laws of civil order.

My intention in this conference is to be as practical as possible, in order to help us make the Divine Office what God and the Church want it to be: at once a prayer of praise and intercession, and a sacrifice that is most pleasing to God.

It is based on the questionable presuppositions that divine risk is necessary for creaturely freedom to exist, and that risk is eliminated by divine foreknowledge.

 Writings of W John Murray
In order to have one God scientifically, we must have divine Principle which knows no change, which sendeth no evil into the experience of man, which does not send sickness, nor poverty, pain nor perplexity; which is always the same, sending forth the qualities of its own nature.
Divine Science has come to emphasize the fact that in order to know God aright we must study, and meditate upon the essential Characteristics of deity.
In Divine Science we understand this requirement of the Psalmist, "magnify the Lord," to mean that you should make God, this Divine Principle, so big that there is no room in the universe for anything but God, and so evil is non-existent; no matter how real it seems to be.

 Journeyer Temple
Being that a majority of the neo-pagan traditions have a common understanding that the divine is of one source but many facets, the service of bringing spirituality to individuals in the community should not be lessened just because an individual was not trained specifically in a Druidic order, or Wiccan coven.
At the moment, our goal is help each individual to find the divine through neo-paganism on their own terms, preference and style.
For those who want to stand more in the middle; at the crossroads, we want to provide that person with the option to become a "jack of all trades" with the understanding that it is the commonality that brings us all together, and the differences that make each path distinctly beautiful.

 Rosicrucian - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
They both were mystical orders deriving from Koranic theology, where dogma is supplanted by faith in the "Divine Reality." Many similarities with the Rosicrucian way were expressed in the manifestos and the "Brethen of Purity" ways of life as well.
The Rosicrucians took the union of the rose and the cross for their symbol because this union embodies the meaning of their effort and emphasizes the fact that that effort must be made by all men, as the aim of humanity on earth is to attain divine wisdom.
According to a legend published in the 17th century Rosicrucian manifestos, the Rosicrucian Order was founded in 1407 (the early 15th century) by a German pilgrim named Christian Rosenkreuz (1378 - 1484), who studied in the Middle East under various occult masters.
