Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8. Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double minded.

The Bible supports slavery?

James 4:11-12
Speak not evil one of another, brothers. He that speaks evil of his brother, and judges his brother, speaks evil of the law, and judges the law: but if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law, but a judge. 12. There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who are you that judge another?

Fr. Lawrence Farley

We are not worth the suffering caused to the sinless Son of God. And yet of course that was why He suffered for us, the sinless for the sinful, the innocent for the guilty, the immortal God for mortal and dying men.

Go to now, you rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come on you. 2. Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten.

"To be Orthodox means to have the God-man Christ constantly in your soul, to live in Him, think in Him, feel in Him, act in Him. In other words, to be Orthodox means to be a Christ-bearer and a Spirit-bearer." St. Justin Popovich.

James 5:3
Your gold and silver is corroded; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. You have heaped treasure together for the last days.

First, O spiritual father, you must become a disciple of Christ and be instructed well in His commandments and then the sacraments, and only thus undertake to teach others. First you must submit to follow a spiritual father, who will lead you on the path leading to Christ, and you must find Christ, or rather Christ must find you, and you must mark well the turnings and sign posts on the path that leads you there, and you must see Christ by the grace of the Holy Spirit, without straying into delusion, and only then guide others to Christ. First you must be illumined by the true light, and only thereafter bring others to this light. First you must be liberated yourself, and only thus undertake to liberate others.

+St. Symeon the New Theologian
