“Our Savior was crucified for our sakes that by His death He might give us life and train and attract us all to endurance. To Him I press on, and to the Father and to the Holy Spirit. I strive to be found true, judging myself unworthy of this world's goods; and yet not I because of the world, but the world because of me. Think of all these things in your heart; follow them with zeal; fight, as you have been commanded, for the truth to the death: For Christ was made 'obedient' even 'to death'” ThinkingWorldGivingHeartHas BeensMadeMightChristianSpiritFightingFoundFatherChristThis WorldJudgingHolyPressesTrainStriveSakeHoly SpiritEnduranceOrthodoxGoodsSaviorZealOrthodox ChristianUnworthyObedientJudging Myself Author:Saint Basil
“Christ has lifted woman to a new place in the world. And just in proportion as Christianity has sway, will she rise to a higher dignity in human life. What she has now, and what she shall have, of privilege and true honor, she owes to that gospel which took those qualities peculiarly and which had been counted weak and unworthy, and gave them a Divine glory in Christ.” WorldHumansWomenChristQualityChristianityDivineHigherHonorGloryDignityWeakPrivilegeHuman LifeProportionUnworthyPlaces In The WorldNew Places Book:Christianity's Challenge and Some Phases of Christianity Submitted for Candid Consideration Source: Christianity's Challenge and Some Phases of Christianity Submitted for Candid Consideration
“Men will see in their king or in their rulers men like themselves perhaps unworthy or open to criticism, but they will not on that account refuse obedience if they see reflected in them the authority of Christ, God and Man. Peace and harmony, too, will result; for with the spread and the universal extension of the kingdom of Christ, men will become more and more conscious of the link that binds them together, and thus many conflicts will either be prevented entirely or at least their bitterness be diminished.” IfsMenWisdomTogetherPoliticsChristResultsEconomyKingsConflictAuthorityConsciousCriticismUniversalAccountsHarmonyRefuseSpreadKingdomsObedienceLiberalismLinksBitternessRulersExtensionsUnworthyPeace And Harmony Author:Pope Pius XI
