Contemplations
Evangelists don’t just extend human beings’ lives a few years on earth. Rather, they guarantee unlimited numbers of years or rather an eternal number of years in heaven. They don’t open the eyes of the blind to enjoy seeing things for some time. Rather, they open the eyes of all to see eternal truth and enjoy the afterlife. They don’t solve the temporary earthly problems (actually they may add some problems to those who start believing in Christ and following His teachings). Rather, they solve the most serious and complicated problems I.e. eternal death, corruption and evil – Abouna Daoud…

Contemplations
The darkness is being turned into light. There is not, as some heretics argue, a nature so alienated that it cannot receive salvation.

Just as at first it is winter and then it is spring, and the passage of each season has a single goal – the ripening of the fruit – so it is with our affairs. – Saint John Chrysostom . #DelightInTheLord #GreatAreHisWorks #CopticOrthodox #Coptic #Orthodox #DailyReadings

“Whoever approaches God and truly desires to be a partner of Christ must approach with a view to this goal, namely, to be changed and transformed from his former state and attitude and become a good and new person, harboring nothing of “the old man.” For it says, “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation” (2 Cor 5:17). For our Lord Jesus Christ came for this reason, to change and transform and renew human nature and to recreate this soul that had been overturned by passions through the transgression. He came to mingle human nature with His…
