Teachings of Seraphim
The Reasons for Christ’s Coming
Jesus Christ came because of:
1. God's love towards the human race: "For so God loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son" (John 3:16);
2. The restoration of the image and likeness of God in fallen man;
3. The salvation of human souls: "For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved" (John 3:17).
And so, we, following the goals of our Redeemer, the Lord Jesus Christ, must lead our lives according to His Godly teaching, in order to save our souls by it.
An excerpt from the teachings of Seraphim of Sarov of the 18th & 19th centuries. He was one of the most renowned Russian saints in the Eastern Orthodox Church. Seraphim extended the monastic teachings of contemplation, theoria and self-denial to the layperson.
