‘What then did the Son of God do for us? How did He trample down our death, our so cruel tyrant? The Son of God, I answer, having taken upon Himself our corruptible body, by His sufferings paid the righteous judgment of God for our transgressions, as the Prophet foretold, saying: “He was wounded for our sins and bruised for our iniquities.”(Isa. 53:5) Having thus paid for our sins, He delivered us from eternal punishment and from the endless fire; and moreover, in His immeasurable compassion, He made us also sons of God and heirs of the heavenly kingdom (cf. Rom. 8:17). Was not much of the authority of greedy and insatiable death over sinners thereby taken away? Truly we ought to cry out with the Apostle: “O death, where is thy sting? O hades, where is thy victory?”(1 Cor. 15:55) Where now are your captives and your victims?’ –St. George (Konissky), Paschal Sermon (1785)

The Orthodox Catholic Church’s repeated affirmation that the Passion of Christ—where Mercy & Justice meet—is the efficient cause of our salvation, and where the completion of the reconciliation between God & Man occurs:

St. Ambrose on the satisfaction aspect of atonement.

I second this; whether we are friends, acquaintances, strangers or enemies, please forgive me for any wrongdoing. Know too that I wish the salvation of you all, even if we end up arguing a few weeks from now. God is good, let us strive to embody His virtues! Christ is risen!

@TheOrthoEnsign We♥️St. Fulgentius.

St. Fulgentius of Ruspe on the meaning of Pascha, and how Christ was guiltless but took the penalty so that our guilt might "pass over" without penalty—

@KR3IIIG Understandable. Starting a Boosty is always an option as well.

I declare that I will no longer hold giveaways. It is quite tiring for me. Therefore, I will continue to draw those whom I want and what I want. If you want commissions, I'll open them later. Thank you to everyone who took part in all my giveaways. You gave me a great training and huge experience in the field of art. For this, I am very grateful to you. Thank you guys 🌼

@Sor3_l3 He is risen indeed!

@Hleowstede Christmas was mine growing up, but since my catechumenate, Good Friday & then Easter definitely the most significant for me.

It's strange looking back how minor of a holiday Easter used to be to me before becoming Orthodox.
