He gives the condition we must fulfill: Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God (Matthew 5:8),\u201d emphasized Metropolitan Andrei of Cluj, Maramure\u0219, and S\u0103laj in his Easter Pastoral Letter.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>His Eminence underlined the need to purify the inner senses to behold Christ.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHoly Scripture also reveals to us the soul\u2019s senses that must be cleansed. In this regard, I will offer two quotes\u2014one from the Old Testament and another from the New Testament: While in captivity, the prophet Ezekiel saw in a vision a human-like figure with four faces: a face of a man, a face of a lion, a third of an ox, and a fourth of an eagle (Ezekiel 1:10). The Book of Revelation tells us that Saint John the Theologian also had a vision of four living beings: \u2018The first living creature was like a lion, the second like a calf, the third had a face like a man, and the fourth was like a flying eagle\u2019 (Revelation 4:7).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Metropolitan Andrei cited Saint Macarius the Egyptian, who taught that the four creatures symbolized the guiding faculties of the soul.<\/p>\n<h2>The Four Faculties of the Soul<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cThe soul\u2019s faculties\u2014its four primary functions\u2014are symbolically represented by the four living beings: reason by the eagle, feeling by the ox, will by the lion, and conscience by the man. These four are reason, emotion, will, and conscience,\u201d said the metropolitan.<\/p>\n<p>He then explained the function of each faculty and the need for their purification:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese four senses\u2014the four functions of the soul\u2014have been defiled by sin. With his healthy reason, man should find the Creator in everything. \u2018The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament proclaims the work of His hands\u2019 (Psalm 18:1), says the Prophet David. Yet man can end up neglecting or even denying God. Only the pure in heart will see God.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe man with a pure heart loves God; his purified emotion, represented by the ox, loves holy and pure things. The sinful man laments, like Saint Paul, that his will is weak: \u2018O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?\u2019 (Romans 7:24). The will, symbolized by the lion, becomes powerless,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd the conscience, which is the voice of God within man and should cry out whenever he sins, has become entirely dormant\u2014his inner senses are defiled. We should enlighten the mind, warm the heart, and strengthen the will in the path of righteousness. And the dormant conscience must be awakened.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Repentance \u2013 A Means of Purification<\/h2>\n<p>Metropolitan Andrei emphasized that repentance is one of the most important means available for cleansing the soul of sin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have used all the means available to purify ourselves, but especially repentance. Saint Macarius the Egyptian tells us that repentance is our only salvation! Neither culture, nor intelligence, nor nobility, nor beauty can renew a person\u2014but only true repentance, shame, and sorrow for all past sins. And, of course, a complete change in way of life and thinking. Repentance also includes a good confession.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also offered examples of saints who purified their inner senses and were found worthy to see God.<\/p>\n<p>At the conclusion of the pastoral letter, Metropolitan Andrei urged the faithful to see the Saviour Jesus Christ present in every neighbour.<\/p>\n<p>Photo: Cluj Metropolis \/ Darius Echim<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/BasilicaNews\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-495171\" src=\"https:\/\/basilica.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/banner-x-en-889x148.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"889\" height=\"148\" srcset=\"https:\/\/basilica.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/banner-x-en-889x148.gif 889w, https:\/\/basilica.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/banner-x-en-1024x171.gif 1024w, https:\/\/basilica.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/banner-x-en-1536x256.gif 1536w, https:\/\/basilica.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/banner-x-en-2048x341.gif 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 440px, (max-width: 768px) 354px, 890px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cOur greatest desire is to see Christ, who rose from the dead.
