O Holy Apostle Philip,
Intercede with the merciful God
That he may grant our souls forgiveness of sins.
*************
Glory to Jesus Christ! Glory for ever! + Slava Isusu Christu! Slava i vo viki!
From the Fathers of the Church …
Abba Poemen said that Abba John said that the saints are like a group of trees, each bearing different fruit, but watered from the same source. The practices of one saint differ from those of another, but it is the same Spirit that works in all of them.
St. Symeon the New Theologian
Just as the Father is never ignorant of the Son, nor the Son of the Father, just so neither are the saints. They are become gods by adoption through having God indwelling them. They can never be ignorant of each other, but shall look on one another and on each one’s glory, like the Son the the Father’s glory and the Father on the Son’s. What then shall be the glory of the saints? It will be like the Son of God’s. The latter Himself points out this very truth most clearly when He says: `The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one even as We are one’ (Jn. 17:22).
