About this sermon
Mercy presupposes justice and builds upon it. Those who fear God seek to fulfill all justice toward God...and He, for His part, adds all things unto them. Thus, the Scriptures say over and over... God's Mercy is upon those who fear Him.

The season before Easter signifies the troubles in which we have here and now, while the time after Easter which we are celebrating at present signifies the happiness that will be ours in the future. What we commemorate before Easter is what we experience in this life; what we celebrate after Easter points to something we do not yet possess. This is why we keep the first season with fasting and prayer; but now the fast is over and we devote the present season to praise. Such is the meaning of the Alleluia we sing. Both these periods are represented and demonstrated for us in Christ our head. The Lord's passion depicts for us our present life of trial-shows how we must suffer and be afflicted and finally die. The Lord's resurrection and glorification show us the life that will be given to us in the future" — St. Augustine.
