Come then and let us also journey with Him, purify the mind; and let us be crucified with Him, and die for His sake to the pleasures of this life, that we may also live with Him, and hear Him say, "No longer do I ascend to the earthly Jerusalem to suffer, but I ascend to My Father and your Father and to My God and your God, and I shall raise you up to the Jerusalem on High, in the Kingdom of Heaven.»
