On the Eight Vices -On Anger

If we desire to attain Perfection and rightly to pursue the
Spiritual Way, we should make our self a stranger to all
sinful anger and wrath.
'St Paul exhorted us to ...rid
...rid yourselves of all bitterness,
wrath, anger, clamou
clamour, evil speaking and all malice...'
malice
(EPHESIANS 4:31)
In saying 'all' St Paul leaves no excuse for regarding any

anger as necessary or reasonable.
If we want to correct our Brethren when they are doing wrong
or to punish them, we must strive to remain calm, otherwise
we, ourselves, may catch the sickness that we are seeking to
cure and we may find that the Words of the Holy Gospel
now apply to us!
Let us keep in mind two important Teachings:
'Physician, heal thyself!... (LUKE 4:23)
'Why do you look at the speck of dust in your Brother's eye,
and not notice the beam in your own eye?' (MATTHEW 7:3).
Now and ever, and to the Ages of ages.

THEOTOKION GREAT DOXOLOGY

RESURRECTION APOLYTIKION
Mary Magdalene proclaimed our

Saviours Resurrection from the dead
of our Saviour and His Appearance,
the Disciples would not believe, so
they were rebuked for their hardness
of heart. Yet when they were
equipped Signs and Miracles, they
were sent out to Preach. And Thou,
O Lord, Ascended to Thy Father, the
Source of Light; and they preached
everywhere, verifying their words
with Miracles. Wherefore, we who
are Enlightened by them, Glorify Thy
Resurrection from the dead, O Lover
of mankind.
and ever, and to the Ages of

ages.
Amen.

Lord, brought the Greeting Rejoice!

Resurrection an Angel rolled the
stone from Thy Glorious Tomb; one
revealed the Signs of Joy instead of
sorrow; the other - instead of Death
- proclaimed to us a Master and
