The Big Idea
I really love this quote from John Chrysostom.
Short Form
Let Us Leave the Table Like Lions…
- John Chrysostom
Quote
He has given to those who desire Him not only to see Him, but even to touch, and eat Him, and fix their teeth in His flesh, and to embrace Him, and satisfy all their love. Let us then return from that table like lions breathing fire, having become terrible to the devil; thinking on our Head, and on the love that He has shown for us.
- John Chrysostom
