Those souls who are slothful and avoid labors, who don’t seek the sanctification of the heart in this life- not in part, but completely- should not expect to share in the communion of the Holy Spirit, nor to be liberated from the passions of wickedness.

I’d like to reassure you that the Holy Mountain welcomes those people who themselves desire, want and seek to follow Christ. They come because they’ve taken to heart Christ’s ‘Follow me’. Christ said ‘Follow me’ to His twelve disciples, but He continues to this day to offer it to all those who sincerely desire Him and genuinely love Him.
