Orthodox Quote for October 2
“When we set ourselves apart from others we are not Christians. We are true Christians when we have a profound sense that we are members of the mystical body of Christ, of the Church in an unbroken relationship of love when we have lived united in Christ, that is, when we experience unity in His Church with a sense of oneness. This is why Christ prays to His father saying that they may be one. He repeats the prayer again and again and the apostles emphasize it everywhere. “
(Elder Porphyrios ~ Wounded by Love)
