A Sunday thought

“Such men as surrender religiously to the Church in its holiness and obey it humbly in its authority share in the Church’s freedom in full measure; for in their life the Divine Spirit lives and works, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. Any other kind of freedom, which is not purchased at the high price of self-denial in faith and obedience, is counterfeit coin in the ethical world.” – Vladimir Solovyov
