“I am father, saith Christ, I am brother, I am bridegroom, I am dwelling place, I am food, I am raiment, I am root, I am foundation: all whatsoever thou desirest, I am. Be thou in need of nothing. I will be even a servant, for I came to minister, not to be ministered unto; I am friend, and member, and head, and brother, and sister, and mother; I am all, only cling thou closely to Me. I was poor for thee, and a wanderer for thee, on the cross for thee, in the tomb for thee, above, I intercede for thee; on earth, I am come for thy sake an ambassador from My father. Thou art all things to Me: brother, and joint heir, and friend, and member. What wouldest thou more?” St John Chrysostom #TheKingdomofGodhascome #TheSonofGodhascome #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox

The Cross is our Christian motto, a symbol of suffering. The Cross encompasses the depth of the physical suffering (pain) of Christ. It impacts our souls more than any other event in the glorious life of our Lord. There is no doubt that every event in the life of our Lord Jesus Christ impacts us, but the image of the Cross is the most influential one. – Pope Shenouda . #Suffering #ChristsSuffering #SonOfMan #Crucifixion #Resurrection #Coptic #CopticOrthodox #Orthodox #DailyReadings

“For we have not an High Priest, who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities. He is not (he means) ignorant of what concerns us, as many of the High Priests, who know not those in tribulations, nor that there is tribulation at any time. For in the case of men it is impossible that one should know the affliction of the afflicted who has not had experience, and gone through the actual sensations. Our High Priest endured all things. Therefore He endured first and then ascended, that He might be able to sympathize with us. But was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. That is, He was persecuted, was spit upon, was accused, was mocked at, was falsely informed against, was driven out, at last was crucified.” St John Chrysostom #JesusChrist #ourHighPriest #tempted #withoutsin #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox
