Pray for All People

By St. John Chrysostom

The priest is the common father, as it were, of the whole world. It is proper, therefore, that he should care for all, even as God Whom he serves. For this reason, the apostle Paul writes, “I urge then, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions and thanksgivings (lit: Eucharists) be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life, godly and respectful in every way. This is good, and it is acceptable in the sight of God our Savior who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth” (1 Tim 2:14).

From this two advantages result. First, hatred is done away with towards those outside the Church, for no one can feel hatred towards those for whom is prays. And those who are prayed for become better because of the prayers, and they lose their ferocious disposition towards us. For nothing is so apt to draw people to the Christian teaching as love and being loved. Think what it was for those who persecuted, scourged, banished and slaughtered the first Christians to hear that those whom they treated so barbarously offered fervent prayers to God for them.
