Serghie Râbko, hieromonk Is Salvation Possible in the 21st Century Translation from Russian by Mariana Casu Today, as the Holy Fathers have prophesized, we live in a world assailed by “wild temptations.” There is no contemporary patristic literature, because there are no holy spiritual directors to write about man’s salvation. The old books of the Holy Fathers can hardly answer today’s dilemmas and concerns. Most of the contemporary people are unable to understand or apply their advice. The only way to put them into practice correctly is to seek counseling from our priests and confessors, who revere the teachings of the saints and strive to apply them. Such a father is the author of the present book, Sergy Ribko, whose exhortations are inspired by the advice of ascetics, elders and fathers of the distant or recent past. Thus, we can minimize the risks of failure in joining their effort to understand God’s will, and do the work of salvation, even in the 21st century. Format: 13 x 20 cm; 352 p.
