After that, He appeared in another form
to two of them as they walked and
went into the country.
And they went and told it to the rest,
but they did not believe them either.
Later He appeared to the Eleven as they
sat at the table; and He rebuked their
unbelief and hardness of heart,
because they did not believe those
who had seen Him after He had
Risen.
And He said to them, Go into all the
world and preach the Gospel to
every creature. He who believeth
and is Baptised will be saved; but he
who doth not believe will be
condemned. And these Signs will
follow those who believeth: In My
Name they will cast out demons;
they will speak with new tongues;
they will take up serpents and if
they drink anything deadly, it
will by no means hurt them; they
will lay hands on the sick, and they
will recover.
So then, after the Lord had spoken to
them, He was received up into
Heaven, and sat down at the right
Hand of God.
And they went out and preached
everywhere, the Lord working with
them and confirming the Word
through the accompanying Signs.
Amen.

gave them the Good Tidings: Why do
You seek the Living with the dead?

Verily, Christ is Risen! Let no one

appeared to Mary, and after that to
those who went fishing. Then He
appeared to His Eleven Initiates, as

Heaven after He had descended,
establishing His warning by a

God, the True God Who Call us from
the darkness of iniquities.
ODE 6 O Merciful One, when I saw the
sea of this life agitated with the
tumult of temptations, I hastened to
Thy Quiet Haven, crying: Raise my
life from corruption!
ODE 7 Verily, the Angel made the
furnace overflow with Dew for the
Righteous Youths, burning the
Chaldeans by the Command of God,
and compelling the usurper to
shout: Blessed art Thou, God of our
Fathers!
ODE 8 We Praise, we Bless and we
Worship the Lord!
Thou sprang forth from the flames as
Dew for those Righteous Ones and
Thou consumed with Water the
sacrifice of the Righteous One, for
Thou dost all things only by Thy
Will, O Christ. Wherefore, we exalt
Thee still more throughout all ages!
Verily, the God Whom no man can see,
nor the Ranks of Angels dare look
upon: through Thee, O Pure One,
was seen among men as Incarnate
Word. Wherefore with the Heavenly
Hosts, we magnify Him and Thee do
we Bless.
