His Beatitude Patriarch Daniel: „The unique criterion of the Right Judge is the merciful Love”
On 27 February 2011, the Orthodox Church celebrated the 3rd Sunday of the period of the Triode, also called the Sunday of the Frightening Judgement or of the beginning of meat fasting. The evangelical pericope of Matthew 25:31-46 presenting the final Judgement was read in the church at this feast. The only criterion by which God will divide the people at the Last Judgement is the merciful love, said His Beatitude Patriarch Daniel today, in the chapel of the Patriarchal Residence, “Saint Gregory the Enlightener”, in the end of the Divine Liturgy.
