St. John Chrysostom: poor reason

Sunday, September 13, 2020
    Feast of John Chrysostom, Bishop of Constantinople, Teacher, 407
Meditation:
    The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace; the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so.
    —Romans 8:6-7 (NIV)
Quotation:
    Poor human reason, when it trusts in itself, substitutes the strangest absurdities for the highest divine concepts.
    ... St. John Chrysostom (345?-407)
    See also Rom. 8:6-7; Ps. 14:1; Rom. 8:13; Gal. 6:8; Eph. 4:18-19; Jas. 1:13-15
Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, send Your Spirit, so that Your people understand Your word.
