The foundation of the Jesus Prayer can be found in the words of the Lord: ‘Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my Name: ask, and ye shall receive… Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my Name, he will give it you’ (John 16:24, 23). The more man is initiated in prayer the more he realises that the centre of all spiritual battle against the passions and the enemy is his very heart. In the Old Testament man is defined as a ‘deep heart’ (Ps. 64:6) which seeks ‘a spiritual and divine sensation’ (cf. Prov. 15:14 LXX). The way that leads to the deep heart goes through our physical heart. The relationship we find between the two is the same ...

For Christians, there’s only one point to sorrows: atonement for our sins here on earth, through a variety of ailments, sorrow and pain, all for the purification and salvation of our soul. For the wicked, who have no desire to sort themselves out and to repent, these sorrows on earth are a portent of eternal suffering. Elder Cleopa Ilie

The Gospel reading for the Sunday before Christmas, taken from the beginning of the Gospel of Saint Matthew, contains Christ’s genealogy ‘after the flesh’, and, thereafter, God’s dispensation regarding the birth of Jesus from the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary. Let us turn our attention to the significance of this for each one of us. Every year, in an atmosphere of joy and delight, the Church celebrates the Birth of Christ, and sings wonderful hymns to God Who became incarnate and re-formed our degenerate human nature. Orthodox hymnography and theology emphasize the great anthropological significance of the divine incarnation: we have been saved from hopeless degradation and from the chaos of destructive hatred by the love of God, which took ...
