 St Philaret of Moscow

St John of Kronstadt Some people understand the word freedom

to mean the ability to do whatever we want ...
Consequently, they have allowed themselves
We become Spiritual Beings
insofar as we Live a Spiritual Life (in Christ).
to become enslaved by sins, passions, and defilements.
We begin to see God in all things - More often than others,
to see and to experience His Power and Might
in every manifestation.
zealots of external freedom,
Always and everywhere try to broaden the laws as much as possible.
we see ourselves Abiding in God
and we are utterly dependent on God
However, such exploitation of external freedom
for all things. only more severely
But insofar as those who live a bodily life,
shackle and imprison us with inner slavery.
everything they do
is material and temporary.
They do not see God in anything -
True Freedom is the active ability of those
not even in the the most Wondrous Manifestations who are not enslaved to sin,
of His Divine Power.
In all things
who are not pricked by a condemning conscience
They see and experience those who are able to choose the better
only material and physical things
everywhere and always
in the Light of God's Truth,
for "...God is not before (their) eyes." (PSALM 35:2) and to bring it into actuality
with the Help of the Gracious Power of God.
This is True Freedom
with which neither Heaven nor Earth
are restricted...

FESTAL MATINS & DIVINE LITURGY HYMNS DORMITION
Today we observe the Memory of
Christs Forebears, and we pray that
we might receive their aid, so that all
of us may be Freed from
tribulations, as we cry aloud: Be
with us, O Lord our God, Who
Glorified them as Thou were pleased
to do.
Let us all prophetically come together
to worthily extol the All Holy Repose
of Christs Grandmother. For today
she passed from this temporal life
and Joyfully entered into Heaven,
where she greatly Rejoices. As the
True Mother of the True Theotokos,
she cries out with Faith: My soul
magnifies the Lord, for I gave birth
to His Mother on Earth. May He be
with us He Who Glorified them as
He was pleased to do.
On this 25th day of the month, we
Commemorate the Dormition of St
Anna, Mother of the Most Holy
Theotokos.
On this day we Commemorate the 165
Holy Fathers who convened for the
5th Ecumenical Council, which
refuted the heretical teachings of
Origen.
On ths day we Comemmorate the Holy
and Blessed St Olympias, the
Deaconness.
On this day we Commemorate our Holy
Mother, St Eupraxia.
On this day we Commemorate the Holy
Martyrs, St Sanctos, St Maturos, St
Attalos and St Vlandina.
Mercy on us.
