Patristic Quote of the Day

And it is not merely so great honor, that we enjoy from the King of the universe. What master ever gave his own son for his servant? No one, but all would rather choose to give their servants for their sons. Here on the contrary, He spared not His own Son, but gave Him up for us all, for His enemies who hated Him. -- St. John Chrysostom, Homily 16 on 1 Timothy
