Jubilation

And the Resurrection of Jesus Christ

The jubilation of the Church is also the jubilation of the Divine Persons of the Holy Trinity at the accomplishment of our salvation. The resurrection of Christ, which brought on the defeat of the power of death, is the cause of joyful praise, because He is the cause of the death of death, and the destruction of Hades. Christ's resurrection is the beginning of an eternal life. Because of Christ's resurrection, death no longer separates us from God, and we are no longer destined for the darkness of Hades, but rather brought into heavenly mansions, to dwell there eternally in the fullness of everything good.

Christ is risen!

Truly He is risen!

With love in Christ,

Abbot Tryphon
