Possessing Knowledge

Ό γνωστικὸς καὶ εἰδὼς τὴν ἀλήθειαν, οὐ διὰ μνήμης τῶν πραχθέντων, ἀλλὰ δι' ὐπομονῆς τῶν ἐπερχομένων ἐξομολογεῖται τῷ Θεῷ.

Ἅγιος Μάρκος ὁ Ἐρημίτης, Περὶ Τῶν Οἰομένων Ἐξ Ἔργων Δικαιοῦσθαι

Source: Migne PG 65.952d
Being knowledgeable and knowing the truth is not through the recollection of things done but in the confession of God in the endurance of present trials.

Saint Mark The Ascetic, On Those Who Think Themselves Justified By Works
