CHRIST IS BORN! GLORIFY HIM!

"O brothers, the wonder! O, the inexpressible condescension of that
love for us of God Who loves mankind! The union which He has by nature
with the Father He promises that we may have with Him by grace, if we
desire it, and that we may be in the same relation with respect to
Him, if we keep His commandments. O fearful promise! that the glory
which the Father gave the Son, the Son gives in turn even to us by
divine grace."

St. Symeon the New Theologian.

"Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face evermore! Remember His
marvelous works which He has done, His wonders, and the judgments of
His mouth." 1 Chronicles 16:11-12

The Bible reading for the 10th of Toba, January 19th, is:
1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius
Pilate being governor of Judea, Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, his
brother Philip tetrarch of Iturea and the region of Trachonitis, and
Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene, 2 while Annas and Caiaphas were high
priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the
wilderness. 3 And he went into all the region around the Jordan,
preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins, 4 as it
is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying: The
voice of one crying in the wilderness: `Prepare the way of the Lord;
Make His paths straight. 5 Every valley shall be filled And every
mountain and hill brought low; The crooked places shall be made
straight And the rough ways smooth; 6 And all flesh shall see the
salvation of God.' 7 Then he said to the multitudes that came out to
be baptized by him, Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the
wrath to come? 8 Therefore bear fruits worthy of re

pentance, and do not begin to say to yourselves, `We have Abraham as
our father.' For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to
Abraham from these stones. 9 And even now the ax is laid to the root
of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is
cut down and thrown into the fire. 10 So the people asked him, saying,
What shall we do then? 11 He answered and said to them, He who has two
tunics, let him give to him who has none; and he who has food, let him
do likewise. 12 Then tax collectors also came to be baptized, and said
to him, Teacher, what shall we do? 13 And he said to them, Collect no
more than what is appointed for you. 14 Likewise the soldiers asked
him, saying, And what shall we do? So he said to them, Do not
intimidate anyone or accuse falsely, and be content with your wages.
15 Now as the people were in expectation, and all reasoned in their
hearts about John, whether he was the Christ or not, 16 John answered,
saying to all, I indeed bapti

ze you with water; but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal
strap I am not worthy to loose. He will baptize you with the Holy
Spirit and fire. 17 His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will
thoroughly clean out His threshing floor, and gather the wheat into
His barn; but the chaff He will burn with unquenchable fire. 18 And
with many other exhortations he preached to the people. (Luke 3:1-18)
Paramouni of Holy Theophany (Epiphany).

The Bible reading for the 11th of Toba, January 20th, is: Luke 1:18-34
Epiphany Feast
The Holy Theophany of Our Lord, God and Savior, Jesus Christ (Baptism
of the Lord christ).
