My Beloved Ones,
In this Sunday’s Epistle to the Galatians, the Apostle Paul wishes to make an important distinction concerning faith and the Law of Moses. Though the Law was provided to help the Israelites walk in God’s ways, we now live in a time when the God-Man walked with us in true perfection. Therefore, St. Paul writes: “Brethren we know that a person is justified not by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ. And we have come to believe in Christ Jesus, so that we might be justified by faith in Christ, and not by doing the works of the law...” (Galatians 2:16) However, Saint Paul also knows that just as “…no one will be justified by the works of the law” faith in Jesus Christ does not free anyone from sin either.

Today we glory in Cross of the Lord, raising it on high in the Feast of Its Universal Exaltation.
