Becoming One’s Brother’s Keeper

People were deeply moved by St. John the Forerunner’s warning of the coming judgment and wanted to know how to amend their lives. St. John’s answer was grounded in mercy and justice - the same command proclaimed by the prophet Micah, that we "do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with God."

John was not giving a detailed code of behavior for every circumstance, but rather revealing the heart of the law. Repentance meant a shift away from "each man for himself" to becoming one’s brother’s keeper. True turning to God always includes turning toward the neighbor, because love of God and love of neighbor cannot be separated.

In practical terms, this means that part of faithfulness to God is found in serving others. Just as our sins often make life harder for those around us, repentance produces the opposite effect: making another’s life a little lighter, even through small acts of mercy. These are the fruits worthy of repentance, the visible sign that one’s heart has truly turned toward God.

~Fr. Andrew Jarmus, Dean, St. Mary's Orthodox Cathedral, Minneapolis, MN



    Bear one another's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.  (Galatians 6:2)
