1 Cor. 13:4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8Love never fails.

It was the "criminals" who had control, the "rights," robbing and killing at will. Fr. Arseny set such a profound example of apostolic laying down of rights, that many were changed by observing his example. One such was the hardened criminal, Sazikov. He said: "I kept careful watch on you until I understood that you do not live for yourself, but for others - in the name of your God...You've touched my heart...with the example you set. I've decided to be done with my past. I know my life will end here, but I want to take your path, I want to believe."
