St Isaac the Syrian
Love sinners,
but hate their deeds.
Do not disdain sinners
for their failings,
so that you yourself
do not fall into the temptation
in which they abide...
Do not be angry at anyone
and do not hate anyone,
neither for their faith,
nor for their shameful deeds...
Do not foster hatred for the sinners,
for we are all guilty...
Hate their sins,
and pray for all sinners
so that we may all become like our Lord Jesus Christ,
Who had no dislike for any sinner,
and always prayed for them.

St Philaret of Moscow
All Faithful Orthodox Christians
should have the imperative and incentive
to become Holy.
Holy
If we live without Struggle
and without Hope of becoming Holy,
then we are Christians only in name
and not in Essence.
Essence
Without acquiring Holiness,
Holiness,
we shall not see our Lord
that is to say -
we will not attain Eternal Blessedness.
Blessedness
Our Lord Jesus Christ came into the world
to Save sinners. (1 TIMOTHY 1:15).
But we deceive ourselves
if we think that we are Saved
while remaining sinners.
sinners
Christ Saves those sinners
by granting us
the means to become Saints.

I Am God, and besides Me there is no
