To guard the precious treasure of faith with all the power of our soul was the appeal made by the local metropolitan from Siatista, Athanasius.

"With it our saints lived and with it our ancestors grew up", stressed on the morning of Orthodox Sunday in his sermon Mr.. Athanasios immediately after the performance of the divine service and added that "With what is our life-giving tradition we too must live and with it leave this world for eternity ”.

Taking occasion from the triumphant victory of Orthodoxy against heresies, the Siatist metropolitan stated that "Today we celebrate the triumph of our Church against any opposing force that from time to time tried to break out of its helpless castle and seize the precious treasure it possesses", while clarifying how "Like today we had the end of the riots caused by the brutal intervention of the State in the life of the Church with the attempt to impose the interpretation of the divine revelation in its own secular way".

Wanting to refer to the great struggle waged by the Church for the sacred icons, Mr.. Athanasios noted that "He fought not only for their didactic purpose nor for their aesthetic character but above all for the foundation of salvation", while completing how By honoring the sacred images we manifest our faith in the great mystery of the earthly presence of the Lord. So we too, by printing this theatrical figure in an image, worship the birth, the miracles and the crucifixion ”.

Επιχειρώντας να περιγράψει τους λόγους που η Εκκλησία τοποθέτησε μέσα στους ναούς τις ιερές εικόνες, the metropolitan of Siatist pointed out that "In this way, through the view of the depicted person, the true and true incarnation of Christ will be revealed in a tangible way", clarifying at the same time how “όταν προσκυνάμε μια εικόνα δεν προσκυνάμε το υλικό από το οποίο είναι φτιαγμένη αλλά προσκυνάμε το εικονιζόμενο πρόσωπο. Άλλωστε δεν λατρεύεται η εικόνα ως ύλη αλλά ο εικονιζόμενος Χριστός και τιμώνται τα πρόσωπα της Παναγίας και των Αγίων”.

Από τον ιερό ναό του αγίου Νικολάου, Mr.. Athanasius, παράλληλα πρόσθεσε πως “έξαλλου δεν είμαστε ειδωλολάτρες. Δεν λατρεύουμε την ύλη. Δεν λατρεύουμε την κτήση αλλά τον δημιουργό. Δεν προσκυνάμε κανένα κτίσμα ούτε υλικό, ούτε φυσικό φαινόμενο, ούτε κατάσταση υπερφυσική, ούτε πνεύματα, ούτε αόρατα ή ορατά σημεία δυνάμεως. Ούτε ανθρώπους, ούτε άρχοντες, ούτε εξουσιαστές, ούτε τυράννους”.

Επιδιώκοντας να σκιαγραφήσει τα πραγματικά συναισθήματα που βιώνουν οι χριστιανοί αντικρίζοντας τις ιερές εικόνες, ο μητροπολίτης Σιατίστης υπογράμμισε πως “όταν βλέπουμε την εικόνα της Σταυρώσεως η καρδιά μας οδηγεί στα φρικτά πάθη του Κυρίου μας και αναλογιζόμαστε το μέγεθος της σταυρικής θυσίας και της αγάπης του Θεού προς το αχάριστο και πανούργο ανθρώπινο γένος. Όταν ασπαζόμαστε την εικόνα της Γεννήσεως, της Υπαπαντής, της Μεταμορφώσεως, της Αναλήψεως η ύπαρξή μας ηλεκτρίζεται από την ενθύμηση των γεγονότων αυτών και ευθυγραμμιζόμαστε και πάλι στην κατεύθυνση προς τη βασιλεία των ουρανών. Όταν ασπαζόμαστε την εικόνα της Παναγίας και των Αγίων ασπαζόμαστε νοερώς με δέος και σεβασμό την ίδια την Παναγία και τους ίδιους τους Αγίους”, διευκρινίζοντας ταυτόχρονα πως “αισθανόμαστε ότι η Παναγία και οι Άγιοι και όχι το τζάμι ή η μπογιά ακούνε την προσευχή μας και νοιώθουμε την προστασία τους και την αντίληψή τους”.

Mr.. Αθανάσιος έκλεισε με την προτροπή να μας ενισχύσει ο Θεός στον πνευματικό αγώνα της ζωής και να μας αξιώσει “να προσκυνήσουμε τα άχραντα πάθη του, τον τίμιο σταυρό και τη λαμπροφόρο ανάστασή του”.
