It is fitting that we celebrate holy Chrismation during this Christmas season. You can even hear that the words are related: Christmas & Chrismation & Christ.

They’re not merely metaphors or symbols, but real spiritual beings, which shows us pretty clearly that it’s no good to be “spiritual but not religious.” Demons are spiritual too, and they’re no good. They hate you. They hate me. They hate the boy in today’s gospel. The demon torments - [An Impossible Debt](https://saintstephenbyzantine.church/3273-2/) - Sermon on Matthew 18:23-35. Today, in a parable, our Lord Jesus Christ gives us a God’s eye view of sin and forgiveness. An official owes his king ten thousand talents. The king is the Lord. You and I are the official. His debt represents our sinfulness. So when Jesus describes this debt, he is actually - [Jesus honors his mother.](https://saintstephenbyzantine.church/jesus-honors-his-mother/) - Sermon on the Dormition & Matthew 19:16-26 All things in sacred scripture and holy tradition are interrelated.

The gospel for the beheading of John centers on the birthday - [The Prayer Book of Christ](https://saintstephenbyzantine.church/the-prayer-book-of-christ/) - Sermon on Matthew 22:35-46 If we are practicing Byzantine Catholics, then we are well acquainted with the Book of Psalms.

Or what would someone give in exchange for his life?” (Mark 8:36-37). Jesus is asking us a rhetorical question. It's meant to be obvious to us that our life is worth more than the whole world. - [Bulletin](https://saintstephenbyzantine.church/bulletin-136/) - Bulletin for 2021-09-19 - St. Stephen - [The World vs. the World.](https://saintstephenbyzantine.church/the-world-vs-the-world/) - “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” These must be the most recognized words of the gospel in the United States.
