ACC ~ Mark 8 v6

BREAKING THE BREAD

AUGUSTINE: In expounding holy Scriptures, I am, so to speak, now breaking bread for you. If you hunger to receive it, your heart will sing out with the fullness of praise. [1] And if you are thus made rich in your banquet, why would you then be niggardly in good works and deeds of mercy? What I am distributing to you is not my own. What you feast upon, I also feast upon. SERMONS ON NEW TESTAMENT LESSONS 45.1. [2]
