"Even of itself the teaching of the Blessed Paul is sufficient to give you a full assurance concerning those Divine Mysteries, of which having been deemed worthy, ye are become of the same body and blood with Christ. For you have just heard him say distinctly, That our Lord Jesus Christ in the night in which He was betrayed, took bread, and when He had given thanks He brake it, and gave to His disciples, saying, Take, eat, this is My Body: and having taken the cup and given thanks, He said, Take, drink, this is My Blood.1 Since then He Himself declared and said of the Bread, This is My Body, who shall dare to doubt any longer? And since He has Himself affirmed and said, This is My Blood, who shall ever hesitate, saying, that it is not His blood?" "Wherefore with full assurance let us partake as of the Body and Blood of Christ: for in the figure of Bread is given to thee His Body, and in the figure of Wine His Blood; that thou by partaking of the Body and Blood of Christ, mayest be made of the same body and the same blood with Him. For thus we come to bear Christ4 in us, because His Body and Blood are distributed5 through our members; thus it is that, according to the blessed Peter, we become partakers of the divine nature.6 4. Christ on a certain occasion discoursing with the Jews said, Except ye eat My flesh and drink My blood, ye have no life in you.7 They not having heard His saying in a spiritual sense were offended, and went back, supposing that He was inviting them to eat flesh." Just some quotes amongst many many passages testifying to ecclesiology, sacraments, and the divine liturgy (which has its own entire lecture). Highly recommend for those curious about the truth of Orthodoxy and the True Church from ages of ages. I made all my kindle highlights public for those who wish to see many more quotes.
