Re: St Ephraim the Syrian: On the Antichrist
May God grant that we all not forget to watch and pray.
'It were indeed meet for us not at all to require the aid of the written Word, but to exhibit a life so pure, that the Grace of the Spirit should be instead of books to our souls, and that as these are inscribed with ink, even so should our hearts be with the Spirit. But, since we have utterly put away from us this Grace, come, let us at any rate embrace the second best course.'
—St. John Chrysostom, Homily I on Matthew
