Saint Nektarios, Bishop of Pentapolis
Translated and published by Saint Nektarios Greek Orthodox Monastery
Volume 2 of Saint Nektarios Monastery Publications
“This book, which is comprised of selected chapters translated from Saint Nektarios’ Christology, aims to enlighten contemporary man in the knowledge of the True God, and to guide him away from the ‘dead ends’ that surround him. The purpose of this volume, as the saint himself notes in his introduction, is to confess the truth and faith of Christ, as well as to strengthen the faith of Christians: ‘so they become firm and immovable in the faith, live worthily of the Gospel of Christ, participate in the contest of the faith of the Gospel, be frightened in nothing by the adversaries, live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world, and thus look forward to the blessed hope and glorious appearance of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ’ (Tit. 2:12–13).”
