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

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.

No, the God of love and peace and complete sacrifice does not care to live in the midst of bustling and ado to please oneself, even if this is carried on perhaps under some kind of pretence. There is one way to make a test: if your peace of mind is troubled, if you become dejected or perhaps a little angry if for some reason you have to give up performing the good deed you had planned, then you know that the spring was muddy.

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

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

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