He is very famous for declaring that "God is dead" but I think his understanding of what it implied is often overlooked.Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom
