A Generous Orthodoxy
Dear Rick,
Yes, I think you are right and there is a coming together here to understand something important. Abba Seraphim has recently reminded me of something along this line, writing: Quote:Saint Jerome tells us of the tradition that when, through old age Saint John was too feeble to preach, he had to be carried into the church in Ephesus in the arms of his disciples. At these meetings, he was accustomed to say no more than, ?Little children, love one another!? After a time, the disciples wearied at always hearing the same words, asked, ?Master, why do you always say this?? ?It is the Lord's command,? was his reply. ?And if this alone be done, it is enough!? No better source, no better advice; and how hard sinful man finds it- as I am sure St. John knew. In Christ, John In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. (1 John 4:10) |
