Sayings of
the Desert Fathers...
Abba Anthony
said: "From our neighbor is life and death. If we gain our
brother, we gain God, but if we cause our brother to
stumble, we sin against Christ."
Abba Isidore
said, "If you fast regularly, do not be inflated with pride,
but if you think highly of yourself because of it, then you
had better eat meat. It is better for a man to eat meat
than to be inflated with pride and to glorify himself."
"Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers
in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity." (1
Timothy 4:12)
