IC XC NIKA Orthodox Cross | Medieval Floral Design | The One Who Conquers (Revelation 3:21) | Orthodox Christian Canvas ArtMan's personal efforts are like a receiver for the grace of God. The greater and more decisive these efforts are, the greater is the grace filled help from God that they attract. These efforts in and of themselves are not as significant in unseen warfare as the sincerity of ones good will that is revealed in these efforts. The more forcefully one battles, the more intense the efforts of his good willthe greater is the grace that he receives from God.

But if your heart turns away so that you do not hear

and coming in the likeness of men

' it is said

though we do not know how that happens

strong and weak

in divers places

God's wisdom to guide me

and the life: no man cometh unto the Father

He said to me

here is the Christ

The Church is heaven

and unto ages of ages
