THE LADDER OF DIVINE ASCENT - Prudence True
1 THE LADDER OF DIVINE ASCENT St. john Climacus Translated by Archimandrite Lazarus Moore (Harper & Brothers, 1959) An Ascetic Treatise by Abba john , Abbot of the monks of Mount Sinai, sent by him to Abba john , Abbot of Raithu, at whose request it was written. Step 1 On renunciation of the world 1. Our God and King is good, ultra-good and all-good (it is best to begin with God in writing to the servants of God). Of the rational beings created by Him and honoured with the dignity of free-will, some are His friends, others are His true servants, some are worthless, some are completely estranged from God, and others, though feeble creatures are equally His opponents. By friends of God, dear and holy Father,1 we simple people mean, properly speaking, those intellectual and incorporeal beings which surround God. By true servants of God we mean all those who tirelessly and unremittingly do and have done His will.
