572 10,22|            10: 40). In these words, Christ is clearly showing that
573 10,23|       Likewise did the followers of Christ venerate Mary. One of them,
574 10,23|          One of them, after hearing Christ's words, said to Him, “Blessed
575 10,23|       virgin when she gave birth to Christ. They even maintained that

577 10,23|          Gospels clearly state that Christ had been born of a virgin,

585 10,23|             brothers and sisters of Christ were the children of His
586 10,23|         brothers of the Lord.~ That Christ's so-called brothers and

590 10,23|            her Son.~ The friends of Christ, the Apostles, manifested
591 10,23|          John the Theologian. After Christ uttered to him from the
592 10,23|             meal, telling them that Christ had glorified her body also

600 10,25|            discern between the true Christ and the false, then we should
601 10,25|          say that Mary was saved by Christ, they understand this fact
602 10,25|             in the future merits of Christ (as defined in the Bull

606 10,25|            in a certain way, helped Christ.” Or, in the words of the
607 10,25|            placed side by side with Christ Himself in the matter of
608 10,25|           the false assumption that Christ might have been tainted

612 10,26|            received a revelation by Christ Himself, she stated.~ Thus,
613 10,26|      Apostolic faith handed down by Christ, which faith has been held
614 10,26|            proclaim that only Jesus Christ is completely pure of every
615 10,26|          between God and man, Jesus Christ” (1 Tim 2:5); “and in Him
616 10,26|          while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.... If, while
617 10,26|         Spirit at her conception of Christ, they mention nothing of
618 10,26|              save Thee alone, Jesus Christ our God, Who didst appear
619 10,26|            Theologian states: “When Christ came through a pure, virginal,
620 10,26|          her birth so that the Pure Christ might be born of her, is
621 10,26|            meaningless. If the Pure Christ could be born only if Mary
622 10,26|            could only conclude that Christ's Incarnation could not
623 10,26|         need for the Incarnation of Christ, because Christ came down
624 10,26|      Incarnation of Christ, because Christ came down to earth in order
625 10,26|            the world, and not after Christ” (Col 2:8).~ The heresy
626 10,27|             Mother of God prayed to Christ to deliver her from the
627 10,27|             take them away to hell. Christ heard the prayers of His
628 10,27|           she needed to be saved by Christ.~ The Orthodox celebration
629 10,27|          shall take the expression, Christ ought to be worshiped in
630 10,27|             the separate worship of Christ's Divinity and His Humanity,
631 10,27|           if heart is taken to mean Christ's love itself, still, neither
632 10,27|            concerning the parts of [Christ's] bodily nature. There
633 10,27|          veneration of the heart of Christ and the Mother of God is

636 10,28|             and gnashing of teeth,” Christ stated many times concerning
637 10,28|            Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ” (2 Thes 1:8).~ The torments
638 10,28|             understand the words of Christ only conditionally, as a
639 10,28|             this way, one errs, for Christ does not instill in us any
640 10,28|           Coming. Since the time of Christ's Ascension from earth to
641 10,28|             event of world history: Christ's Second Coming to earth.

643 10,28|     life-giving Cross of the Lord.~ Christ states that the Second Coming
644 10,28|                At that future time, Christ will come in all His glory,
645 10,28|            glory” (Mt 25:31). Thus, Christ's Second Coming will be

647 10,28|               In His Second Coming, Christ will come to “judge the
648 10,28|            things was at hand, that Christ's Second Coming was imminent.
