Quotes

A collection of scriptural meditations from Saints and Fathers of the Church.

Only with the greatest struggle and sacrifice is the chaff of heresy separated from the wheat of Orthodox truth.

In all our actions God looks at the intention, whether we do them for Him or from some other motive.

A holy man told us one day, that the source of all heresies and schisms in the church was, loving God too little, and ourselves too much.

In everything we do, God looks as the aim, whether it is for Him or for some other purpose we act. So, when we wish to do something good, let us have as our aim not to please men but to please God, so as to have our eyes always fixed on Him, doing everything for Him, lest we bear the labor but lose the reward.

If we want to do something but cannot, then before God, Who knows our hearts, it is as if we have done it. This is true whether the intended action is good or bad.

Beware of reading the doctrines of heretics for they, more than anything else, can equip the spirit of blasphemy against you.

Guard yourselves from soul-destroying heresy, communion with which is alienation from Christ.
