Odeh: The Christian is invited to testify to the right to injustice, killing, starvation, displacement and genocide

Metropolit Beirut and its dependencies, Bishop Elias, presided over the return of the Divine Liturgy Service in St. George’s Cathedral.
After reading the Bible, he threw a sermon in which he said: “The new life does not mean that the Christian is a machine that Christ drives, without having a will and responsibility in achieving it.” He continued: “We heard in the gospel“ Whoever wants to follow me, let him disbelieve himself and carry his cross and follow me, because whoever wants to save himself will destroy it, and whoever destroys himself for me and for the sake of the Bible save it. ”Our salvation is if it is related to our choice and our freedom. Every position in which a person chooses to place God’s will above his will, to testify to the right in a world of lies and hypocrisy, and to be a lover in a society based on envy and hatred, and to remain faithful to his faith and principles between people who provide interest in morals, and believe that the end justifies the means, and this is the summit of selfishness and inhumane.
He added: “We heard the Lord Jesus say in the gospel of today,“ Whoever is ashamed of me and my words in this wrong generation, the son of humans is embarrassed when he came in the glory of his father. ”In this evil time, and while the world blinded what is happening, he drew on expressing the rejection of the barbarism of man and the evil that he commit The displacement and genocide are called for the revolution on the lack of humanity, the deterioration of morals and the rule of interest. It brings us salvation. We dissolve in it or attach to it or be affected by his ideas and faith, but rather to prove on the rock of Christ, faith and physical, so that our love becomes automatic towards every human being, because God created man in his image and example, without mentioning a color, religion, sect or sex.
