This is the grace of the Lord, and these are the Lord’s means of restoration for the children of men. For He suffered to prepare freedom from suffering for those who suffer in Him; He descended that He might raise us up; He took on Him the trial of being born that we might love Him who is uncreated; He went down to corruption, that corruption might put on immortality. He became weak for us, may we might rise with power; He descended to death, that He may bestow on us immortality, and give life to the dead. Finally, He became Man, that we who die as men might live again, and that death should no more reign over us – St Athanasius . . #lifeinchrist #resurrection #holy50 #grace #coptic #orthodoxy #copticorthodox #dailyreadings

This is true as well in the case of the sleep of death; for a believer, when he goes to sleep, rises up into a new life armed with new potentials of a new world” – Fr Tadros Malaty . “Truly it is not said about saints that they are dead but rather they are laying down or resting” St Jerome . . #lazarussaturday #coptic #dailyreadings #orthodoxy #copticorthodox #resurrectionandlife #lifeinchrist #gloryofgod
