The rich young man in today’s Gospel reading seems to have metaphysical concerns and considerable spiritual interests. His young heart burned for the sublime, the eternal, the things to come. He approached the Lord with zeal and with a genuine willingness to learn. A desire and flame had awakened within him which forced him to approach Christ and ask Him the following question: ‘Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?’ The Lord replies: ‘Why do you call me good, since you consider me to be a normal person? No-one’s completely good except God alone’. Thereafter Jesus reminds the young man of the commandments of the Law of Moses: don’t commit adultery, don’t kill, don’t steal, don’t bear false ...

Christians have no right to harbor feelings of ill-will towards other people. Such sentiments are the work of the devil. Christians should have nothing but love in their heart, which means they can’t think about wickedness and can’t have bad thoughts about others.
In his First Epistle, Saint John the Evangelist tells us that the aim of Christ’s redemptive work was the abolition of the devil’s dominion over human nature: ‘The Son of God appeared so that He might destroy the works of the devil’ (1 Jn. 3, 8).

We can see this happening in the temptations in the wilderness, in the healing of those possessed and, in particular, in His death on the Cross. 1. The temptations in the wilderness. After His baptism in the River Jordan, Jesus was led by the Holy Spirit into the wilderness, in order to face the temptations of the devil and defeat him. Through ...

Excessive concern for the cares of this life is a sign of someone who’s mean-spirited and a non-believer. And it’s a disaster if we are so bent on looking after ourselves that we don’t depend on God, Who makes provision for everything for us.
In the city of Ankara, in Galatia, there once lived a monk. We don’t know when he lived. We don’t even know his name. The little we do know about him is that he came from the army, lived near the bishop of the city and was so philanthropic and charitable that he’d even go round at night to help those in need. The clothing he wore wasn’t worth a mite and his food was commensurate. When he was given books, he’d sell them straight away and give the proceeds to the poor. Even if he’d kept the books, he wouldn’t have read them, because his constant involvement with charity precluded any ‘poring over codices’. He hurried around everywhere, to prisons, to hospital ...
