CHRIST IS RISEN! TRULY HE IS RISEN!
"Scripture presents one aspect to most people, even if they think that
they understand its meaning, and another to the person who has
dedicated himself to continual prayer, that is, who keeps the thought
of God always within him, as if it were his breathing...this is true
even if in a worldly sense the person is ignorant and uneducated with
regard to secular and merely human knowledge. God reveals Himself...to
simplicity and humility, and not to those who engage in laborious
study and superfluous learning. Indeed, God turns away from such
learning if it is not allied to humility: as St. Paul says, it is
better to be ignorant in speech rather than in spiritual knowledge
(cf. 2 Cor. 11:6). Spiritual knowledge is a gift of grace, but skill
in speaking is a matter of human learning, as are the other forms of
worldly education: they do not contribute to the salvation of the
soul."
St. Peter of Damaskos.

The Bible reading for the 28th of Baramhat, April 6th, is:
9 Now when He rose early on the first day of the week, He appeared
first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom He had cast seven demons. 10 She
went and told those who had been with Him, as they mourned and wept.
11 And when they heard that He was alive and had been seen by her,
they did not believe. 12 After that, He appeared in another form to
two of them as they walked and went into the country. 13 And they went
and told it to the rest, but they did not believe them either. 14
Later He appeared to the eleven as they sat at the table; and He
rebuked their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not
believe those who had seen Him after He had risen. 15 And He said to
them, Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not
believe will be condemned. 17 And these signs will follow those who
believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with
new tongues; 18 they will take up serpents; a
nd if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they
will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover. 19 So then, after
the Lord had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven, and sat
down at the right hand of God. 20 And they went out and preached
everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through
the accompanying signs. Amen. (Mark 16:9-20)
