MATTHEW 7: 1-5
Quote for Today- April 7, 2011
“Nothing so robs us [of grace] and leads so surely to utter destruction than fault-finding, speaking evil and condemning one’s neighbor. To condemn means saying: so and so is a liar, an adulterer, has a bad-temper. Such a person condemns the very state of another’s soul, passes judgment on their whole life … and this is a grievous sin …. God alone has the right to justify or condemn, for God knows the disposition of our soul, our strength, our tendencies and gifts ….”
St. Abba Dorotheus of Gaza [505-565 or 620]
