Gregory is called Sinaite because he received the monastic tonsure on Mount
Sinai. During the reign of Emperor Andronicus Palaeologus, about the year 1330
A.D., he arrived at Mt. Athos to visit the monasteries and to inquire about the
practice of mental prayer and contemplation. However, these two forms of
spiritual works [exercises], at that time, were almost unknown among the holy
Athonites. The only one who knew this and practiced it to perfection was St.
Maximus of Kapsokalyvia. Gregory spread his teaching about mental prayer
throughout all the cells and monasteries on Mt. Athos. His distinguished
disciple was Kallistos, the Patriarch of Constantinople, who wrote the biography
of St. Gregory. After that, Gregory crossed over to Macedonia and to the other
regions of the Balkans and established communities in which the monks practiced
mental prayer. Thus, he assisted many to be immersed in prayer and to be saved.
His writings about mental prayer and asceticism can be found in the book "Dobrotoljublja
The Philokalia." Among other things, he wrote the refrains to the Holy
Trinity, "It is meet and right", which is sung at the Midnight Service
of the Resurrection. Gregory ranks among the most eminent ascetics and
spiritual teachers of the Balkans. He died peacefully after a long and
laborious life and took up habitation in the Kingdom of God.

Gormizdas was a nobleman at the court of the Persian Emperor Yezdegeherd.
Since he chose not to deny Christ, the emperor saddened Gormizdas, by
confiscating his rank and property and sent him to tend livestock. The emperor
hoped that Gormizdas would quickly long for his rank and property and that he
would worship the idols. However, the king was fooled. Gormizdas peacefully
tended the livestock and kept his faith. For that, the emperor subjected him to
cruel tortures, which only succeeded to exhaust the body of Christ's martyr but
was unable to alter his spirit. Finally, Gormizdas was slain in the year 418

Moses spoke to the sons of Israel: "I have set before you life and
death, the blessing and the curse. Choose life…that you may live"
(Deuteronomy 30:19). There are some decisive moments in the life of men when,
indeed, it is left up to man to choose between life or death. Judas, in a
decisive moment, was corrupted by silver and he chose death, i.e., the sin of
avarice [greed]. When the general wanted to elevate Marinus the soldier (August
7) to the rank of an officer (centurion), envious men accused him of being a
Christian. The general permitted him only three hours to contemplate and to
choose between life or death, i.e., either to deny Christ or to die. Marinus,
hearing the words of his superior, went to the local bishop, Theotechnus, and
asked him for advice. The bishop led Marinus into the church, stood him before
the Gospel and pointing his hand, at first to the Gospel and after that to the
sword which hung from Marinus' waist, said to him: "Choose courageous man,
one of these two; either to wear the sword and serve the earthly king
temporarily and, after death, be lost eternally or to become a soldier of the
Heavenly King and lay down your life for His Holy Name which is written in this
Book and to reign with Him in eternal life." Marinus immediately decided,
kissed the Book of the Holy Gospel and departed through death into life
eternal.

Samuel 3 1 Kings 3):

1. How one night when Samuel was lying down, the Lord called him three times
by name;
1 . 怎麼塞繆爾正在躺在下面的一晚上, 主 3 次由名字打電話給了他;
2. How the Lord related to Samuel the threat to the House of Eli [Heli]
because of the corruptness of the sons of Eli and a threat to all of Israel;
2 . 主怎麼聯系了到塞繆爾到 Eli 的房子的威脅 [ Heli ] 因為到伊斯[拉爾]。伊利的所有的 Eli 和威脅的兒子的墮落;
3. How the Lord did not want to appear either to Eli, the high priest or to
his sons but rather to Samuel, an innocent child.
3 . 主怎麼沒想要也出現到 Eli , 高司祭或到他的兒子但是相反到塞繆爾，一個無罪的孩子。
About the peace-making of Christ
關於合[利爾]斯托。斯的做和平
"And they [the people] shall beat their swords into plowshares
and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against
nation, neither shall they learn war anymore" (Isaiah 2:4).
“並且他們 [ 人民 ] 將打敗他們的劍進犁頭和他們的矛進修剪鉤;國家將不對國家在劍上面提起, 他們將也不再學習戰爭“ ( 艾賽爾 2:4 ) 。
How clearly the prophet sees Christ the Peacemaker! One by one, the prophet
points out the dignity of the Savior. First of all, the prophet pointed Him out
as the Lawgiver of the new law, a law for all the peoples on earth. After that
the prophet pointed out His exaultedness above all heights, earthly and
historical. And now, the prophet points Him out as the Peacemaker whose power
and love will forge [beat] swords into plowshares and spears into pruning hooks.
Has this great prophecy about peace been fulfilled? Yes it has, in spite of the
fact that wars still exist. Behold, wars among Christian peoples are not the
same as wars among pagans. Pagans fought with pride while Christians fight with
shame. Pagan faiths inhabited their heaven only with warriors and the Christian
Faith promises heaven to the saints. As Christians, by their weakness, repeat
certain other pagan sins, so they repeat the sin of waging war. However, God
examines the heart and knows with what disposition the pagans sin and with what
disposition the Christians sin. The Pharisees denied Christ, Peter also denied
Him. But the Pharisees denied Him with unrepentant malice and Peter denied Him
in shame and again, confessed Him with repentance.
先知多麼清楚地看見合[利爾]斯托。斯調解人﹗一個一個地, 先知指出救世主的尊嚴。首先, 先知作為新法律的立法者指出了他, 為在地球上的所有的民族的一條法律。在以後先知首先指出了他的 exaultedness 高度, 現世並且歷史。並且現在, 先知作為其電源和愛將偽造的調解人指出他 [ 敲擊 ] 進犁頭的劍和進修剪鉤的矛。關於和平的這大預言被完成了嗎？是的它有, 盡管有事實那戰爭仍然存在。看到, 在克裡斯琴民族之中的戰爭不與在異教徙之中的戰爭一樣。當合[利爾]斯托。斯教與恥辱戰斗時，異教徙與驕傲戰斗了。異教徙信念僅僅與武士和克裡斯琴•法斯諾言住在了他們的天堂到聖人的天堂。作為合[利爾]斯托。斯教, 由他們的軟弱, 重複某個另外的異教徙罪惡, 因此他們重複搖擺戰爭的罪惡。然而, 上帝檢驗心並且知道與甚麼布置異教徙罪惡並且與甚麼布置合[利爾]斯托。斯教罪惡。君子否認了合[利爾]斯托。斯, 撇。特爾也否認了他。但是君子與不改悔的惡意和否認的撇。特爾否認了他他在恥辱並且再, 與悔悟承認了他。
However brethren, what can we say concerning the swords and spears of
passions by which we kill our souls and the souls of our fellow men? O, when we
would beat those swords into plowshares that deeply plow the souls and sow the
noble seed of Christ in ourselves! And when we would beat the spears into
pruning hooks to harvest the tares in our souls and to burn them! Then the
peace of Christ would take up abode in the souls of all of us, just as it abided
in the souls of the saints. Who then would even think about war against his
neighbors and against neighboring peoples?
然而兄弟們, 我們能有關我們由其殺死我們的我們的同事的人的靈魂和靈魂的熱情的劍和矛說甚麼？O , 當我們將打敗那些劍進深深地耕作靈魂並且播種的犁頭時在我們自己的合[利爾]斯托。斯的高貴的種子﹗並且當我們將打敗矛進修剪鉤在我們的靈魂收獲巢菜並且燒他們時﹗然後合[利爾]斯托。斯的和平將收起在我們大家的靈魂忍受了, 就在聖人的靈魂作為它忍受了。誰將然後甚至對他的鄰居並且對附近的民族考慮戰爭？
O how wondrous is the vision of Isaiah, the son of Amos, the prophet of God!
怎麼令人驚奇是艾賽爾的視覺的 O , 阿摩司的兒子, 上帝的先知﹗
O Lord, beat the weapons of war in us into instruments of peace by the fire
of Your word.
哦！主啊, 在你的詞的火邊在我們打敗戰爭的武器進和平的儀器。
To Thee be glory and praise forever. Amen.
讚榮和感謝永遠歸於你。阿民。
