The Cross The Preserver Of The Universe
By St. John Maximovitch

In the soothsayer Ezekiel (9:6) it is said that similar to the Angel of the Member of the aristocracy was sent to thin and desolate the sinning terrain, it was told him not to snag inhabitants on whom the "sully" had been complete. In the character paper this sully is called "tau," the Hebrew write equal to the write "T," which is how in ancient get older the hide was complete, which after that was an finger-puppet of acceptable.

And so, even after that was foretold the power of the Cantankerous, which preserves inhabitants who value it. Just as by repeated other procedures in the Old Tribute the power of the Cantankerous was indicated. Moses, who apprehended his arms raised in the form of a hide appearing in the push, gave achievement to the Israelites dull the Amalekites. He as well, separating the Red Sea by a whip of his rod and by a transverse whip uniting the waters another time, saved Israel from Pharaoh, who drowned in the water, when Israel crossed dull on the dry level (Exodus, Chs. 14, 17).

Downcast the laying on of his hands in the form of a hide on his grandsons, Jacob gave a blessing to his lineage, extrapolative at the incredibly time their highly developed until the coming of the "suppose of the nations" (Commencement, Ch. 48).

By the Cantankerous, the Son of God having become man, competent our release. He humbled Himself and became orthodox unto death, even the death of the Cantankerous (Phil. 2:8). Having snug out His hands upon the Cantankerous, the Saviour with them, as it were, embraced the world, and by His blood hut on it, equal a king with red ink, He signed the mercy of the at all run.

The Cantankerous of the Member of the aristocracy was the finger-puppet by which He saved the world once the fall inwards sin. Downcast the Cantankerous, He descended with His class inwards hell so as to mushroom up from it the souls who were pending Him. By the Cantankerous, Christ opened the doors of illusion which had been blocked once our in the early hours community had been banished from it. The Cantankerous was blessed by the Party of Christ which was nailed to it similar to He gave Himself dull to torments and death for the release of the world, and it itself was after that rotund with life-giving power. By the Cantankerous on Golgotha, the prince of this world was cast out (John 12:31) and an end was put to his authority. The alliance by which he was soil became the sign of Christ's achievement.

The demonic hosts shudder similar to they see the Cantankerous, for by the Cantankerous the acquire of hell was vanished. They do not believe to calculate packed to character who is guarded by the Cantankerous.

The whole at all run, by the death of Christ on the Cantankerous, conventional liberty from the authority of the devil, and everybody who makes use of this economical alliance is outside to the demons.

When legions of demons appeared to St. Anthony the Enormous and other desert-dwellers, they guarded themselves with the Ancestor of the Cantankerous, and the demons vanished.

When they appeared to Saint Symeon the Stylite, who was standing on his marker, what seemed to be a chariot to produce him to illusion, the Saint, earlier upward it, crossed himself; it dead and the participant, who had hoped to cast down the cloistered from the turn of his marker, was put to shame.

One cannot tell all the office examples of the advent of the power of the Cantankerous in more or less incidents. Invisibly and unendingly contemporary gushes from it the Foretell shine that saves the world.

The Ancestor of the Cantankerous is complete at all the Mysteries and prayers of the Clerical. Later the making of the Ancestor of the Cantankerous dull the bread and wine, they become the Party and Blood of Christ. Later the immersion of the Cantankerous, the waters are blessed. The Ancestor of the Cantankerous looses us from sins. "When we are guarded by the Cantankerous, we impede the participant, not fearing his nets and barking." Real as the darned sword in the hands of the Cherubim barred the impending inwards illusion of old, so the Cantankerous now acts a little in the world, guarding it from perdition.

The Cantankerous is the secure alliance of spiritual kings in the push with enemies. Downcast the phantom of the Cantankerous in the sky, the order of Emperor Constantine was loyal and an end was put to the stalking on top of the Clerical. The phantom of the Cantankerous in the sky in Jerusalem in the days of Constantius the Arian proclaimed the achievement of Agreement. By the power of the Cantankerous of the Member of the aristocracy, Christian kings control and courage control until Antichrist, barring his path to power and off-putting abandon (Saint John Chrysostom, Section on 11 Thes. 2:6-7).

The "sign of the Son of Man" (Matt. 24:30), that is, the Cantankerous, courage grow in the sky in order to ventilate the end of the fair world and the coming of the eternal Ceremonial of the Son of God. Then all the tribes of the earth shall moan, because they esteemed the fair age and its lusts, but all who clasp endured stalking for integrity and called on the name of the Member of the aristocracy shall glory and be immediate. The Cantankerous after that courage make cuts from eternal perdition all who beaten temptations by the Cantankerous, who crucified their flesh with its passions and lusts, and took up their hide and followed their Christ.

But inhabitants who out of favor the Cantankerous of the Member of the aristocracy and did not formulate the Cantankerous in their class courage depart for eternity. For "the Cantankerous is the preserver of the whole conception, the Cantankerous is the beauty of the Clerical, the Cantankerous is the force of kings, the Cantankerous is the testimony of the complete, the Cantankerous is the repute of angels and the corruption of demons" (Monday Matins).
