The Resurrection of Christ gave the world a new life: Easter message by the Primate of UOC

This great mystery of the return to mankind of lost Paradise cannot be comprehended only by the power of the human mind, for this one needs to have a purified heart. A heart that through prayer, repentance and good works is freed from the deadly disease that sin inflicts on us, and is capable to penetrate into such depths of Divine wisdom where no human mind can penetrate.

The Son of God comes to the earth and saves the man, while not limiting the free will of either the man or the devil, from whose power the Lord liberates the man.

And all this the Lord gives to us freely through His glorious Resurrection. We only need one thing: to remember this and, to the best of our ability, to thank our Creator and the Blessed Savior.

We must also know that the memory and thanksgiving to God for His love and mercy to us, sinners, are needed not to God, but to us, because a grateful person makes themselves worthy of new favors, and an ungrateful one becomes unworthy of what he/she has.

Remember, man, immeasurable love and God's mercy to you and try in your heart to multiply mutual son’s love for God and for your neighbor. Love is the essence of life, and as long as there is love between us, until then there will be life on earth.
