Every Evil Is A Sickness Of Soul,

All Of Us Who Desire The Kingdom Of God Are, By The Lord's Decree, Under An Equal And Rigorous Necessity Of Seeking After The Grace Of Baptism.

Persecution Has Come Upon Us, Right Honorable Brethren, And Persecution In The Severest Form. Shepherds Are Persecuted That Their Flocks May Be Scattered. And The Worst Of All Is That Those Who Are Being Treated Ill Cannot Accept Their Sufferings In Proof Of Their Testimony, Nor Can The People Reverence The Athletes As In The Army Of Martyrs, Because The Name Of Christians Is Applied To The Persecutors. The One Charge Which Is Now Sure To Secure Severe Punishment Is The Careful Keeping Of The Traditions Of The Fathers.

Any One Who Chooses Will Set Up For A Literary Critic, Though He Cannot Tell Us Where He Went To School, Or How Much Time Was Spent In His Education, And Knows Nothing About Letters At All.

The Sun Penetrates Crystal And Makes It More Dazzling. In The Same Way, The Sanctifying Spirit Indwells In Souls And Makes Them More Radiant. They Become Like So Many Powerhouses Beaming Grace And Love Around Them.

God Who Created Us Has Granted Us The Faculty Of Speech That We Might Disclose The Counsels Of Our Hearts To One Another And That, Since We Possess Our Human Nature In Common, Each Of Us Might Share His Thoughts With His Neighbor, Bringing Them Forth From The Secret Recesses Of The Heart As From A Treasury.
