Gleanings from Orthodox Christian Authors and the Holy Fathers

"On one occasion, some Arians went to Abba Sisoes, on the mountain of Abba Anthony, and immediately began to denounce the Orthodox. The Elder did not say anything to them; he merely called his disciple and said to him: 'Bring the book by St. Athanasios and read it.' They remained silent as their heresy was disclosed, and Abba Sisoes subsequently dismissed them, after wishing them a good journey." REF:Fr Seraphim Rose, "Letters"
