Wisdom from Modern Orthodox Elders
“You wonder why does the world referred to imams and rabbis as priests…Don’t be surprised. This is theadopting of non-Christians to the Christian way of thinking and expressing. This sort of adapting was also felt in the first centuries while Christianity was still small in numbers and persecuted… Even those peoples who hate Christianity and are waging war against it are adapting to it. It is like when man fights a flood and gets all wet. Is this to be marveled at? No. Just pray to God for them.”
(St. Nikolai Velimirovich, ‘Missionary Letters #3″)
