On the Feast of Pascha
Examining in depth the meaning of the Paschal Homilies of the Fathers of the first centuries, we encounter an initiation into this reality, into the Holy of Holies. These Homilies supply the food that is essential for living eternally. It is none other than the frequent and regular communion of the Body and Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, which always places purity and wisdom into the human soul. They reveal Him, Who is the source of life, sanctification and illumination; so that when one walks towards God, one may possess the power of emancipation from the spiritual Egypt of sin. As the Apostle Paul pointedly says, "If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old thing have passed away; behold, all things have become new." Indeed, now everything becomes new, and those united with Jesus Christ constitute a new Faith. They have new laws, and they are the new people of God, the new Israel, not the old one. They have a new Pascha, a new spiritual circumcision, a new and bloodless sacrifice, a new and divine covenant.
