In his own words after reading the bible, Archbishop Theodosije emphasized that the people celebrate the three saints, St. Luke, St. Peter of Cetinje and St. Peter the Second the Miraculous , as apostles of Christ and the true shepherds who fed faith in the people of the Gospel of Christ. The Holy Peter stood with the Holy Scripture when it was the hardest, and encouraged others to remain faithful to Christ’s path to the Cross so that they would eventually win those who were considered unbeatable. He emphasized that in the wicked times in which we live, only faithful people can turn only to God to seek help.

He explained that we should not be afraid of the suffering. He recalled the rescue of the Jewish people from Egypt and stressed that they were not strong and powerful to achieve their goal – going to the promised land and defeated a stronger enemy, but the Lord did so because they were faithful and the Lord did not leave His people.
