Right! And where is the value of quality versus quantity? What did God say to Abraham concerning Sodom and Gomorrah?
Well I think you hit it! The one problem the Patriarch is having, is being afraid to have a little flock in Turkey. for his measures a too little flock and this he wants to enlarge by all he can come by.

But as you said it very right it is also a question about quantity versus quality! As in many writings of the Fathers mentioned it is always better to do care for ourselves in terms of quantity, we are as they say not able to give any quality to our praying, to our struggle towards heaven.

But as you mention here rightly the things happened at Sodom and Gomorrah, the care about those who believe is in the hands of the Lord! And he allows a whole city living in evil to be saved by a few righteous. And here should the Patriarch trust a bit more the Lord as himself.

We only can do little, but therefore we will see the wonders God does in our lives!

Christos voskrese! Nicolaj
