“The Church is the holy city which
ha not been sanctified by observing the Law - for the law made
nothing perfect (Hebrews 7:19) – but by becoming conformed to
Christ: participating in the divine nature (2 Peter 1:4) through the
communication of the Holy Spirit who stamped us with His seal in the
day of our deliverance when we were washed from every stain and freed
from all iniquity.”
- St Cyril, as quoted in
The Mystical Theology of the Eastern Church by Vladimir Lossky
