2 Cor. 9 : 6–11 These words by St. Paul: “He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully” (2 Cor. 6:6) are about voluntary giving. They inspire me to think about us and to make some unavoidable comparisons. We Serbs are a rather strange people, and ...

(1 Cor. 4 : 9–16) Believe it or not, brothers and sisters, I think of the holy Apostle Paul as though he were our contemporary, a man I might run into around the corner, if only I went looking for him. Not a single word he wrote or inspired others to write, is excessive. Generation ...

Recently  we  see our church dignitaries parade all over this sinful planet walk, meet , sit with other religious dignitaries; hug and osculate; draw up and sign various resolutions; walk all over the world and bring various people to Serbia – and this, all in the name of Christian love and unity. It is not ...

(Gal 3: 23–29) In the epistle to the Christians on Galatia the holy Apostle Paul teaches us about the equality of all mankind before the Lord. “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus” (Gal. 3:28), he ...
