Godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation and brings no regret, but worldly grief produces death/ الحُزْنَ المُرْضِيَ للهِ يَصْنَعُ تَوْبَةً لِلخَلاصِ لا نَدَمَ عَلَيْهَا، أَمَّا حُزْنُ العَالَمِ فَيَصْنَعُ مَوْتًا

قَالَ لَهُم نِيقُودِيْمُوس وهَلْ تَدِينُ تَوْرَاتُنَا الإِنْسَانَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَسْمَعَهُ وتَعْرِفَ مَا يَفْعَل
إنجيل القدّيس يوحنّا07/من40حتى52/:”سَمِعَ أُنَاسٌ مِنَ الجَمْعِ كَلامَ يَسُوع، فَأَخَذُوا يَقُولُون: «حَقًّا، هذَا هُوَ النَّبِيّ». وآخَرُونَ كَانُوا يَقُولُون: «هذَا هُوَ المَسِيح». لكِنَّ بَعْضَهُم كَانَ يَقُول: «وهَلْ يَأْتِي المَسِيحُ مِنَ الجَلِيل؟ أَمَا قَالَ الكِتَاب: يَأْتِي المَسِيحُ مِنْ نَسْلِ دَاوُد، ومِنْ بَيْتَ لَحْمَ قَرْيَةِ دَاوُد؟». فَحَدَثَ شِقَاقٌ في الجَمْعِ بِسَبَبِهِ.وكَانَ بَعْضٌ مِنْهُم يُريدُ القَبْضَ عَلَيْه، ولكِنَّ أَحَدًا لَمْ يُلْقِ عَلَيْهِ يَدًا. وعَادَ الحَرَس، فَقَالَ لَهُمُ الأَحْبَارُ والفَرِّيسِيُّون: «لِمَاذَا لَمْ تَجْلِبُوه؟». أَجَابَ الحَرَس: «مَا تَكَلَّمَ إِنْسَانٌ يَوْمًا مِثْلَ هذَا الإِنْسَان!». فَأَجَابَهُمُ الفَرِّيسِيُّون: «أَلَعَلَّكُم أَنْتُم أَيْضًا قَدْ ضُلِّلْتُم؟ وهَلْ آمَنَ بِهِ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الرُّؤَسَاءِ أَوِ الفَرِّيسيِّين؟ لكِنَّ هذَا الجَمْعَ، الَّذي لا يَعْرِفُ التَّوْرَاة، هُوَ مَلْعُون!». قَالَ لَهُم نِيقُودِيْمُوس، وَهُوَ أَحَدُهُم، ذَاكَ الَّذي جَاءَ إِلى يَسُوعَ مِنْ قَبْلُ: «وهَلْ تَدِينُ تَوْرَاتُنَا الإِنْسَانَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَسْمَعَهُ وتَعْرِفَ مَا يَفْعَل؟». أَجَابُوا وقَالُوا لَهُ: «أَلَعَلَّكَ أَنْتَ أَيْضًا مِنَ الجَليل؟ إِبْحَثْ وَٱنْظُرْ أَنَّهُ لا يَقُومُ نَبِيٌّ مِنَ الجَلِيل!».

الحُزْنَ المُرْضِيَ للهِ يَصْنَعُ تَوْبَةً لِلخَلاصِ لا نَدَمَ عَلَيْهَا، أَمَّا حُزْنُ العَالَمِ فَيَصْنَعُ مَوْتًا
رسالة القدّيس بولس الثانية إلى أهل قورنتس07/من02حتى10/:”يا إخوَتِي، وَسِّعُوا لَنَا قُلُوبَكُم، فإِنَّنَا لَمْ نَظْلِمْ أَحَدًا، ولَمْ نَخْدَعْ أَحَدًا، ولَمْ نَطْمَعْ في أَحَد. لا أَقُولُ هذَا لأَدِينَكُم. فقَدْ قُلْتُ لَكُم مِنْ قَبْلُ إِنَّكُم في قُلُوبِنَا، لِنَمُوتَ مَعًا ونَحْيَا مَعًا. إِنَّ لي عَلَيْكُم دَالَّةً كَبِيرَة، ولي بِكُم فَخْرًا عَظِيمًا. وَلَقَدِ ٱمْتَلأَتُ تَعْزِيَة، وأَنَا أَفِيضُ فَرَحًا في ضِيقِنَا كُلِّهِ. فإِنَّنَا لَمَّا وَصَلْنَا إِلى مَقْدَونِيَة، لَمْ يَكُنْ لِجَسَدِنَا شَيءٌ مِنَ الرَّاحَة، بَلْ كُنَّا مُتَضَايِقِينَ في كُلِّ شَيء، صِرَاعٌ مِنَ الخَارِج، وخَوفٌ مِنَ الدَّاخِل! لكِنَّ ٱللهَ الَّذي يُعَزِّي المُتَوَاضِعِينَ عَزَّانا بِمَجِيءِ طِيْطُس، لا بِمَجِيئِهِ فَحَسْب، بَلْ أَيْضًا بِالتَّعْزِيَةِ الَّتي تَعَزَّاهَا بِكُم. وقَدْ أَخْبَرَنَا بِٱشْتِيَاقِكُم إِلَيْنَا، وحُزْنِكُم، وغَيْرَتِكُم عَلَيَّ، حَتَّى إِنِّي ٱزْدَدْتُ فَرَحًا. وإِذَا كُنْتُ قَدْ أَحْزَنْتُكُم بِرِسَالتِي فَلَسْتُ نَادِمًا عَلى ذلِكَ، معَ أَنَّنِي كُنْتُ قَدْ نَدِمْتُ، لأَنِّي أَرَى أَنَّ تِلْكَ الرِّسَالَة، ولَوْ أَحْزَنَتْكُم إِلى حِين، قَدْ سَبَّبَتْ لي فَرَحًا كَثِيرًا، لا لأَنَّكُم حَزِنْتُم، بَلْ لأَنَّ حُزْنَكُم أَدَّى بِكُم إِلى التَّوبَة. فَقَدْ حَزِنْتُم حُزْنًا مُرْضِيًا لله، كَيْ لا تَخْسَرُوا بِسَبَبِنَا في أَيِّ شَيء؛ لأَنَّ الحُزْنَ المُرْضِيَ للهِ يَصْنَعُ تَوْبَةً لِلخَلاصِ لا نَدَمَ عَلَيْهَا، أَمَّا حُزْنُ العَالَمِ فَيَصْنَعُ مَوْتًا.”

Nicodemus asked, Our law does not judge people without first giving them a hearing to find out what they are doing, does it
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 07/40-52/:”When they heard these words, some in the crowd said, ‘This is really the prophet.’Others said, ‘This is the Messiah.’ But some asked, ‘Surely the Messiah does not come from Galilee, does he?Has not the scripture said that the Messiah is descended from David and comes from Bethlehem, the village where David lived?’ So there was a division in the crowd because of him. Some of them wanted to arrest him, but no one laid hands on him. Then the temple police went back to the chief priests and Pharisees, who asked them, ‘Why did you not arrest him?’ The police answered, ‘Never has anyone spoken like this!’Then the Pharisees replied, ‘Surely you have not been deceived too, have you? Has any one of the authorities or of the Pharisees believed in him? But this crowd, which does not know the law they are accursed.’Nicodemus, who had gone to Jesus before, and who was one of them, asked,
‘Our law does not judge people without first giving them a hearing to find out what they are doing, does it?’ They replied, ‘Surely you are not also from Galilee, are you? Search and you will see that no prophet is to arise from Galilee.’”

Godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation and brings no regret, but worldly grief produces death
Second Letter to the Corinthians 07/02-10/:”Make room in your hearts for us; we have wronged no one, we have corrupted no one, we have taken advantage of no one. I do not say this to condemn you, for I said before that you are in our hearts, to die together and to live together. I often boast about you; I have great pride in you; I am filled with consolation; I am overjoyed in all our affliction. For even when we came into Macedonia, our bodies had no rest, but we were afflicted in every way disputes without and fears within. But God, who consoles the downcast, consoled us by the arrival of Titus, and not only by his coming, but also by the consolation with which he was consoled about you, as he told us of your longing, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced still more. For even if I made you sorry with my letter, I do not regret it (though I did regret it, for I see that I grieved you with that letter, though only briefly). Now I rejoice, not because you were grieved, but because your grief led to repentance; for you felt a godly grief, so that you were not harmed in any way by us. For godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation and brings no regret, but worldly grief produces death.”
