Patristic Quote of the Day

Even as when he [the priest] baptizes, not he does baptize you, but it is God that possesses your head with invisible power, and neither angel nor archangel nor any other dare draw near and touch you; even so now also. For when God begets, the gift is His only.—St. John Chrysostom, Homily 50 on St. Matthew
