This week’s patristic quote comes from Nicholas Cabasilas. I personally believe that any sanctifying power comes through the Holy Spirit, however since I believe the spirit saturates the scripture I can get behind this. How do you all feel about it?
“Because the Holy Scriptures contain divinely-inspired words and praises of God, and because they incite to virtue, they sanctify those who read or chant them.”
