(2 Cor. 1, 8–11; Luke 5, 27–32)
“I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance” (Luke 5:32). What a consolation for sinners! But one must abandon sins and do only good; and while doing good, still consider oneself a sinner, and not only in the tongue, but in the heart. Don’t sin, but still, like a real sinner, repent and cry out to the Lord for mercy. When you are in this mood, it means you are standing in the truth; If you soon succumb to righteousness and begin to consider yourself sinless, know that you are deviating from the right path and have gone to those for whom there is no salvation. How to combine a good life with feelings of sinfulness - only scribes who write, but do not do, ask about this; For anyone who follows an active path, this is so clear that he cannot understand how it could be otherwise.
