“Who is He? He is the Word of Truth, the Word of non-corruption, who renews man, by bringing him back to the truth. He is the goad that provokes to salvation, He is the One who destroys perdition, and drives away death. He builds the temple of God in men, and makes them His dwelling place. The sick are in need of a Saviour. The lost need a guide. The blind are in need of someone to lead them to light. The thirsty need the living fountain, from which, if someone drinks, one will never thirst. The dead need life. The sheep are in need of a shepherd. And the children need a teacher. All humanity is in need of Jesus!” St Clement of Alexandria #FeastofTheCross #Salvation #onlyinChrist #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox
