94. Read these words, therefore, to the
rest of the brethren that they may learn what the life of monks ought
to be; and may believe that our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ glorifies
those who glorify Him: and leads those who serve Him unto the end, not
only to the kingdom of heaven, but here also—even though they
hide themselves and are desirous of withdrawing from the
world—makes them illustrious and well known everywhere on account
of their virtue and the help they render others. And if need be, read
this among the heathen, that even in this way they may learn that our
Lord Jesus Christ is not only God and the Son of God, but also that the
Christians who truly serve Him and religiously believe on Him, prove, not only that the demons, whom the Greeks themselves think to be gods, are no gods, but also tread them under foot and put them to flight, as deceivers and corrupters of mankind, through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
