Patristic Quote of the Day

When Jesus says, ‘The Son of Man came to save the lost,’ he points to the cross... It does not please the Father that anyone is lost. The shepherd leaves the ones that have been saved and seeks the one lost. And when he finds the one that has gone astray, he rejoices great at its discovery and at its safety.—St. John Chrysostom, Homily 59 on St. Matthew.
