“If you put your confidence in baptism to the point that you neglect your behaviour after it, Paul says that, even if you are baptised, if you are not led by the Spirit afterward you will lose the dignity bestowed on you and the honour of your adoption. This is why he does not talk about those who received the Spirit in the past but rather about those who are being led by the Spirit now.” – St. John Chrysostom #ledbytheSpirit #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox
