God bless
Clean Monday (Kathari Deftera) is the first day of Great Lent. Second to Holy Friday, it is the saddest and most mournful day in the Liturgical year. This is the day that Adam and Eve were expelled from Paradise on account of eating (another reason why we Orthodox fast). God sent them out of the garden and placed the Cherubim and the fiery sword at the gate. (Genesis 3:24) In the Vespers service of Clean Monday, we chant, “The sun hid its rays, the moon and stars were turned to blood, the mountains were afraid, the hills trembled, when Paradise was shut.” Adam departed, beating his hands upon his face and crying: "I am fallen: merciful Lord, have mercy on me!” Blessed Lent to all! Kali Sarakosti! ☦️🙏🏼

To Circumcise or not (continued)

Acts 15:5-7
But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses. 6. ¶And the apostles and elders came together for to consider of this matter. 7. And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.

To circumcise or not (continued)

Acts 15:8-11
And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us; 9. And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith. 10. Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear? 11. But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.
To circumcise or not (continued)

Romans 2:23-24
Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God? 24. For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.
To Circumcise or not (continued)

Romans 2:25-26
For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision. 26. Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?”

To circumcise or not (continued)


Romans 2:27-28
And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law? 28. For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

To cicumcise or not (End of series)

Romans 2:29
But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

A SIGN OF VICTORY OVER VANITY

A considerable struggle is required to get rid of a person's vanity. And he gets rid of it through performing good deeds in secret and through frequent prayer. And a sign of getting rid of it is when you no longer remember the evil done to you by those who defamed you or continue to defame you.

John 10:11-13
I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. 12. But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. 13. The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.

John 10:14-16
I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. 15. As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16. And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.
