“What is the mark of a Christian? That he be purified of all defilement of the flesh and of the spirit in the Blood of Christ, perfecting sanctification in the fear of God and the love of Christ, and that he have no blemish nor spot nor any such thing; that he be holy and blameless and so eat the Body of Christ and drink His Blood; for 'he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh judgement to himself.' What is the mark of those who eat the Bread and drink the Cup of Christ? That they keep in perpetual remembrance Him who died for us and rose again.” BodyChristianSpiritChristBloodDrinkHolyMarkDiedRoseFleshBreadSpotsCupsJudgementPerpetualRemembranceSacramentsSanctificationBody Of ChristBlamelessDefilement Author:Saint Basil
“Friendship exhibits a glorious "nearness by resemblance" to Heaven itself where the very multitude of the blessed (which no man can number) increases the fruition which each has of God. For every soul, seeing Him in her own way, doubtless communicates that unique vision to all the rest. That, says an old author, is why the Seraphim in Isaiah's vision are crying "Holy, Holy, Holy" to one another (Isaiah VI, 3). The more we thus share the Heavenly Bread between us, the more we shall all have.” MenWaySoulHeavenNumbersVisionSeeingShareCryHolyUniqueIncreaseBlessedCommunicateBreadGloriousHeavenlyMultitudesExhibitsResemblanceFruition Author:C.
