Tales of Glory Quotes

“Christ smashes the doors of Hades that hold [Adam and Eve] captive and rescues them from the abode of the dead (Eph 4:8-10). The locks that bound humanity to the netherworld fall harmlessly into the black. The personification of death is now depicted as an old man—fettered, angry, and powerless. (Anastasis [Resurrection], page 137)”

“The Greek Catholic inheritance has a profound ability to help a man transcend that time and place in which he happens to be and then grasp upward for something larger—that prodigious communion of believers in Christ Jesus composed of those who went before him, those who live now in other parts of the world, and those yet to come in future ages in every corner of the world. (Appendix II, page 144)”
