The reason I have told you this parable of the prodigal son is so that you will understand that even sins committed after baptism can be forgiven if we face up to them. I do not say this to encourage indolence but to save you from despair.
John Chrysostom
Fourth Century
我告訴你浪子比喻的原因，是為了要叫你明白，即便是在洗禮之後所犯的罪，如果我們願意面對的話，仍舊可以得著赦免。我說這些不是要鼓勵人怠惰，而是要救你脫離困頓絕望。
約翰‧屈梭多模
第四世紀
