2 Quotes by Chrysostom

But because no one was praising their actions, no one giving them any reward, he says, 'ye labour in the sight of God.' -- Chrysostom, on 1 Thess.1

Prayers profit very greatly: but it is when we also do something. For Prayers indeed cooperate & assist, but a man 'acts with' one that is acting, and 'assists' one that is himself also working. But if thou remainest idle, though wilt receive no great benefit. -- Chrysostom
