Archimandrite Serafim Alexiev Awareness of our sins. Commentary to the Prayer of St. Ephrem the Syrian Translated from Bulgarian by Gheorghita Ciocioi Unless man reforms himself through repentance and minds his own sins, he will never be healed of them and become righteous. For by not heeding his own transgressions, he will only see and condemn the other people’ s, and thus deepen his own sinful state and be mercilessly condemned by God, for judgment is without mercy to one who has shown no mercy (James 2,13). Conclusion: Be aware of your own sins, and you will no longer mind the sins of the others! Condemn yourself, and you will stop condemning them! See what hell awaits you, and then you will no longer hasten to send others to hell, by your malicious judgment! (Archim. Seraphim Alexiev) Format: 11 x 20 cm, 256 p. ISBN: 978-973-136-070-6 «« back
