TIME TO LEARN THE TRUTH

Ahmed ordered the opening of the tomb of Mehmed the Conqueror, which

was located next to the Mosque, to determine any damage and to

Repair it. The tomb was opened, and at a depth of 3

An iron hatch was found from which a stone staircase led to the

underground hall of the Byzantine church. There,

the workers who were working were surprised to find a marble tomb containing

the embalmed body of Mehmed, complete with the portrait that the

Italian painter Bellini had painted 5 months before the death of the conqueror.

The fact that Mehmed was buried in the ruins of the Byzantine

church there is, for many, the greatest proof

that Mehmed wanted to be buried as a Christian and Byzantine king among

the other Byzantine emperors. It is known that Mehmed always said

that he was the successor of the Byzantine emperors.

Sultan Abdülhamid the second, who, for political reasons at that time,

had abandoned Pektasism, an Islamic sect that he

had always followed, and had embraced Sunnism, that is, orthodox Islam,

was consumed by panic and ordered that Mehmed's tomb be immediately sealed. The

The above happened before 1908, and since then, the tomb of Mu'adh has not been reopened. That is why

Even today it is difficult to prove Beyatli's testimony.

However, on December 19, 1996, the weekly newspaper with a large

circulation in Turkey, according to the well-known newspaper

Sabah was published with the following impressive title. The conqueror was

a Christian, and underneath, he had the victim. Historians have not been able

to solve this mystery until today, many centuries after the death of the great

Fatih, who Muammar the Conqueror, as is historically known, had a

Christian mother, most likely a Greek.

The fact that in today's Turkey, in which the Islamic element is dynamically reviving,

reports on such a subject are published, was a great proof of the

doubt about the real religious identity of Mehmed. Even

for the official Turkish establishment itself, and this takes on greater

value if we understand the following. Fatih, Muammar, the conqueror, was and

is one of the greatest taboos of Turkish history, Turkism, and

modern Turkish nationalism. That is why a leader like Fatih had to

personify, in addition to the national sentiment of the people, the religious one.

And yet there in the tomb of the conqueror lies the greatest secret of the

Ottoman Empire, as there were testimonies that said that next to the tomb

There was a cross and an icon of the Virgin Mary.

Muhammad the conqueror, in all probability, something that is

carefully hidden from official Turkish historiography,

had embraced Christianity at the end of his life. A religion that followed him throughout his

life, since his childhood, he had his first contacts with

it through his Christian mother. It is

known that one of the greatest historical enigmas is how a few

thousand Seljuks, Turks, and Ottomans who had come to Asia Minor

in the 11th, 9th, and 10th centuries managed, within a few centuries, to change the entire

ethno-religious character of a region inhabited by millions, many

say 20 million Greek-speaking Orthodox Christians. There are

many reasons. In fact, others mainly mention two reasons. One was the reason

for forced conversion to Islam, and the second reason was

conversion to Islam for reasons of interest. However, because this entire process of

religious conversion of Asia Minor was incomplete from its initial

beginning, it was often only superficial in many cases.

An important peculiarity that characterized Turkish Islam remained

as a heretical presence within the Islamic space.

Today, this issue is also being raised by many Turkish journalists and

researchers under the characteristic title, The Religious Problem of Modern

Turkey. On November 10, 2002, the Turkish newspaper

Milt celebrated the

memory of Saint Nektarios in a Muslim mosque. In the central Muslim mosque of the

The city of Silivria in eastern Thrace, which, before the Greek residents left,

It was a Christian church and is now the Fatih Mosque; the memory of Saint Nektarios was celebrated.

Nektarios, as that place was where Saint Nektarios

spent most of his life. However, the

priests who celebrated the memorial divine service were greatly impressed by the massive presence

of Turkish Muslims who, after their daily prayer, preferred to

Stay and attend the Christian service in honor of the

Great Saint of Orthodoxy. Greeks from Constantinople had also come for this divine service, as well as priests from Greece. And

as the Turkish publications and MliEt themselves report, although

It lasted about three hours; the Turks remained standing until the end, and

With great reverence, the Greek priests at the service.

The celebrant of the service was the representative of the Ecumenical Patriarchate, Father

Meletios, who, for the last two years, has been coming and holding a memorial service in

honor of Saint Nektarios in Silivria, an otherwise purely Greek city.

Father Meletios was also assisted by two priests who had come especially from Greece.

After the end of the service, Father Meletios thanked the faithful and

the Muslims who honored Saint Nektarios

with the same devotion and reverence as the Orthodox.

We will now go to another equally amazing publication. Here I have a

photo to show you. January 7, 2003.

This was a publication in most Turkish newspapers. A Turkish woman demonstrated

how to hold the cross at the blessing of the waters in Constantinople. Here is

the photo that clearly shows the headscarf-wearing Muslim woman who

jumped into the water with the Christians to catch the cross.

And the publication says that it has been 50 years since the waters were blessed

in the Kerat Bay in the Halic region. Those who know Halic are

in the Kerat area, as the Turkish press reports. And this time, a great miracle happened. A young Turkish woman, Suna Yavuz,

a resident of Yeşilköy, also felt the need to jump

into the water. When the priests threw the cross to catch it and receive

the blessing of the saint on this holy day.

The event was highlighted by a large part of the Turkish press, as for the first

time in many years, the church of St. Stephen of Yesil Koi and St.

George of Tsenggel Koi was celebrating the blessing of the waters at the same time that the

Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew was also throwing the Holy Cross in the

area of ​​the Phanar in the presence of Mr. Karamalis and the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs

of Greece, Mr. Yiannis Magkotis. And while the Greek priests

say, and the Turkish publications write, they threw the cross into the sea of ​​Halic

and some courageous heroes of the city were performing in the icy waters, the young

A Turkish woman also threw herself with her clothes into the sea to catch

At least touch the holy cross and receive the blessing.

Explaining her action later to Turkish journalists,

The Turkala, whose name is Sunavous, told her, astonished,

listeners that she did it to honor this Roman holiday and, as

She emphasized that if she were given the opportunity again, she would do it again and would again dive into the

waters to catch the cross and receive its blessing.

This event was considered by many scholars as another proof that

There are strong Christian remnants among the Muslim inhabitants

of today's Turkey. And it is another episode of recent years that

shows that this hidden Orthodox religiosity has

now begun to manifest itself in many ways. 2p March 2, 2003

Turkish newspaper Sabah article title

The Church of the Virgin Mary in Constantinople is the last hope for

The Turks write the Turkish newspaper

From this video, we can understand which is the true Church of Christ

It's been about 15 years now .I don't remember exactly with interpretations, but I'll say it in context.One Sunday morning, when we were serving here in our church in the monastery, I was the abbot, and my father, Father Fronios, who is still with us, Father Pavlos the Paristos, as well as the other fathers and deacons, were serving. We are priests, and we were serving.At the time we entered the divine service,a priest came who came from Nea Spiti.He was an archimandrite and from the Benedictine order. Let the Pope know about it. He doesn't listen to me.Let him know, let him hear it.He came to the monastery from the beginning as a pilgrim with the trova, that is, with his costume.He was a kind man, a good manand he was not provocative, but he was a man, a good man,who entered the monastery, entered inside, went to Archangelos. But all the fathers are at the service. He didn't see anyone. He went to the hall, took out the trovat from the trovat, how do they call this ridiculous, took out the anteriand put on the albia that they wear, let's say,and a belt, a tent that has a cross on it, that has across on it, and he went down and entered the service.inside. But he was a good man. He entered the old pew where Father Nikomos is sitting now, facing the sanctuary, and sat down. Let me tell you how long this man sat there. He entered,made the sign of the cross as they made him, and he entered and was standing inside. From the time he entered until the time hefinished when he finished, the opposite happened. Neither to come back like this, nor to come back like this. When I went, I saw him, but there were two of my great fathers, and they told me that during the service,a Capuchin monk came in and we took him out. What does he want in there?So at that time, I thought,did Jesus Christ take anyone out when he was talking about expelling anyone?He didn't expel anyone, whether they were Jews or friends or whatever.I said, You don't have their blessing. I said to them, Father, you don't have their blessing to even talk to him. Leave the man there because I was afraid that they might go and take him out and say something to him and insult him, and he went to talkand something bad would happen. I didn't want to say that. It's not honest, it's not right. Let me say it.Well, they respected me, and I did as I said.But I had been burned inside them. I was happy. But I didn't want to. I didn't care what it would change for me to tell her because she's sitting there. She's a renegade.She left him there. So the holy communion was all takenand the fathers took communion, and I went out at the end and said goodbye to them. They call me one of those fathers. I don't believe, says the elder, that you should give him something against his will.I tell him, "Listen, I won't give him something against his will, but I don't believe that a paratidra will come." And just as this happened now, his attitude there, just as he was against both communion and the big entrance, the small entrance there, was unrecognizable.And when I took her and we went inside and went to the table, we made a decision and we will put all of them, the Westerners,at the table upstairs, in the table, we eat together but separately that we don't take it out or have it between us. And that's what we hear, and that's what we do today.So when the table was finished, when the service was over, to go to the table, a monk went to the altar, took off his hat and the rosary,the one he was wearing, took off all his clothes and came down in his suit. He had a little black suit, but he was a good man. And until we went outside, he went across to our saint and made a vow.But inside, in the monastery's sanctuary, they had a priest who was from Mytidine.I had taken his name from him, Pavlos, whose father had three brothers. His father and his mother were in Cairo.And when Naler, the leader they had over there, drove out all the people and his father left and came to Greece. Because his father had a trade, trade, trade, trade in foodwho was honored as a father and Father Pavlos died at the age of 58, a spiritual priest, and died at the age of 50. He caught something. He caught him going to a small church, and there he was seized by a heart attack. He caught him, and he died. As soon as he got the latest news to go, there was no service. What a fool he is. So his child Pavloshad been sent by his father to Italy to study, to learn electrical engineering, to become an electrician at a school in Clusino, but he had learned Italian farces as if he were Italian, he knew rap. Let's sayhe knew the following because he was a Egyptian, he spoke Greek in Greece,he learned Greek in Italy, he was a good educated manand I tell him to go and he says and he goes out of the house and he says pleasemy child I tell him go and get this man, thegentleman, to come up to the office and you come and talk.I want to talk to him.So Ennom went, you know his nickname, he says his name, I don't remember how he says it because in 1520 he went.So when he came to go, he also brought a backpack, a sago, and a bag. He had it in his hand, and he had something inside that he wanted to give meand he went up very happy. But when we say very muchthat every time we talk about him, he was a lazy person, he smiled at me, he repented,he took out repentance, he burned there, well,I tell him between me and him, I don't know what to say,soI tell him, father, let's go, I want him to go to the gentleman here.I want to ask him some questions, but I want him to tell me the truth.Don't lie to me, I won't catch him lying to me.Whatever I ask him, he'll tell me the truth. And I promise, I say, I will tell him whatever he asks me, I will tell him the truth. I don't know how to lie, I think.So he conveyed it and said, Blessed is it that the elder asked me,so he can be sure that I will tell him the truth.Well, I say to him, "My good people, I say to him,I see that you are a wise man, but you are also well.First of all, I say, I want you to tell me what you are in the church.Where do you belong? He says to me, I am a Roman and I belong to an order of Benedictines.I have had many orders that Saint Venerable was not even a church member. Is your order well I say to him, I want to ask you to tell me when you entered the churchwhat you gained from the church. He wanted to be wise over there, standing up straight, not touching the old man's feet, nothing. The one standing up was like he was in some kind of Apollo, some criterion, and his eye was on the holy steps.What did you gain, what did you see, what did you feel? I tell you, he says,"Drink first, drink first," he says, "I thank God."Because he thanks God because since I was a little child, I have been begging God to grant me once to be inside an Orthodox church to see how they operate. Because we have been told that the Eastern Church is a hoax. They followed and they did not harm us, and I wanted to see how they operate, and God said so, and I was at this service today because God did not allow me to take him out where I know things breathe from God. And what did you see me telling him this question a and I saw he said on one side Jesus Christ. On the right, our Lady Virgin Mary.Above the Holy Apostles and in general all the saints, Nasmos did not have a hagiography, but he said the roof of the church. And I will give us the greatest Orthodox church, I magnify it, he says, the grace, he says, the joy, he says.Because their unbelieving countries do not have honismata.They have an idol to say. An idol. Here they have the Virgin Mary a an idol to say that it is forbidden to have children.And besides that, how do you feel about your mental state? And what did you think you were doing, neighbortemple says, I thought like you were in heaven, and here the service was taking. The abbot was officiating with his priests and with the diagonals, and they were officiating, and as if I was in heavenvery nicely they agreed with what I said, they agreed because indeed he. Now I ask him another question. I tell him, I will ask you one question, one question he must answer me the truth. When you go to your temple, where you enter inside and go do your service and close up how you are, and he says I will tell you he says, I will tell you he sayswe enter he says inside our temple, and we enter there in the altar, where the getra is located. This table is called the altar. We call it the Holy Altar, and we go there, and it gets worse and makes me think we have the services in the center of the altar. And we make our hands like thismake our hands like this, and say here we will take communion. Here is heavenand here is hell, and we take communion and those too.Nice, I say. Very good. And the temple all around, he says, the temple is a freezer.I say What do you mean freezer he says What is a freezericeberg iceberg.Nothing. The cobweb that is inside money. Nothing. Frozen. Frozen icebreaker.And I say to him, "My dear man," I say to him, "And you go inside to freeze and do what you do, what you do in the freezer, you go inside and you operate these things too. What is this, he tells me, this is this is this."Good. OkayI say.Where is it better I say here or there he says to me anabovolos here he says to me anabovolosI say to him to tell you something he said with love let's saywhat would you say let's say if you made an effortbetween us and we made an effort to find things untilour church was united which it was until 1050which finally fell apart which was united our church was united and nowwe have divided it what would you say we come back that is to say you come back to makeyour bodies and make us also if we have a bodyand unite the churchand a marriage broke I say he smiled.I say to him Why are you smilingwhy are you smiling he says to me Old man, you are right and I will say Well, but if I think and tell a cardinal some, we will also tell them to discuss with the church and come back and tell him something in the evening will tell them. In the morning, I will wake up, but my head will not have. What will happen to my child's head?My head will be fucked up, he tells me.And there we finished the conversation, and he took out this little bag that had the little bag.He tells me, Old man, thank you very much for everything.These things cannot be changed, he says. They have been fixed,but he tells me, in this bag are three handwritten books,so big and so many handwritten books. Because the ancients had thousands, let's say tons of books,which were all printed on machines, but there were many calligraphers, and they wrote them, he says, Saint Athanasius with a goat's head.

🕊️ Η Διδασκαλία του Γέροντα Εφραίμ της Σκήτης Αγίου Ανδρέα περί Αιρέσεως

(Τετράγλωσσο κείμενο – Greek / English / Russian / Turkish)

🇬🇷 

ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΑ

Ο Γέροντας Εφραίμ της Σκήτης του Αγίου Ανδρέα στο Άγιον Όρος δίδασκε ότι κάθε δόγμα που αλλοιώνει ή παραμορφώνει την ορθόδοξη πίστη αποτελεί αίρεση, και αυτός που το αποδέχεται γίνεται αιρετικός. Η αίρεση, κατά τον Γέροντα, χωρίζει τον άνθρωπο από τον Θεό και τη χάρη του Αγίου Πνεύματος, την οποία έλαβε κατά το Άγιο Βάπτισμα.

Επίσης τόνιζε ότι ο νους του αιρετικού υποδουλώνεται σε σκοτισμό και δαιμονική πλάνη, με αποτέλεσμα η μετάνοια να καθίσταται εξαιρετικά δύσκολη.

Αυτή η διδασκαλία αντιπροσωπεύει μια συγκεκριμένη, αυστηρή πατερική θεώρηση περί αιρέσεως μέσα στην Ορθόδοξη Παράδοση.

🇬🇧 

ENGLISH

Elder Ephraim of the Skete of Saint Andrew on Mount Athos taught that any doctrine which distorts or alters Orthodox teaching is a heresy, and whoever embraces it becomes a heretic.

According to him, heresy separates a person from God and from the grace of the Holy Spirit received during Holy Baptism.

He also emphasized that the mind of a heretic becomes darkened and overwhelmed by demonic deception, making true repentance extremely difficult.

This teaching reflects a specific, strict patristic perspective on heresy within the Orthodox Tradition.

🇷🇺 

РУССКИЙ

Старец Ефрем из Скита Святого Андрея на Афоне учил, что любое учение, искажающее или изменяющее православную веру, является ересью, и тот, кто принимает его, становится еретиком.

По его словам, ересь отрывает человека от Бога и от благодати Святого Духа, полученной в Таинстве Крещения.

Он также подчеркивал, что ум еретика впадает во мрак и демоническое заблуждение, что делает искреннее покаяние чрезвычайно трудным.

Это учение отражает строгий патристический взгляд на ересь в рамках православной традиции.

Aynaroz’daki Aziz Andreas Skiti’nden Yaşlı Efrem, Ortodoks öğretiyi bozan veya çarpıtan her doktrinin bir sapkınlık (heretiklik) olduğunu ve bunu kabul eden kişinin de sapkın sayıldığını öğretirdi.

Ona göre sapkınlık, insanı Tanrı’dan ve Kutsal Vaftiz’de alınan Kutsal Ruh’un lütfundan ayırır.

Ayrıca sapkın kişinin zihninin karardığını ve şeytani aldatmalarla dolduğunu, bu nedenle gerçek tövbenin son derece zorlaştığını vurgulardı.

Bu öğreti, Ortodoks geleneği içindeki katı patristik anlayışı yansıtmaktadır.

Saint paisios on confession

CYPRUS WIL BE FREE

 

Your name is Andreas Xenophontos.

Yes, Mr. Xenophonto, we hear you. Yes. I met the old man Paizon in

1989.

I visited him because of personal problems. I almost got burned once

And I asked him about Cyprus. If the Turks leave Cyprus.

Yes. Mr. Xenophontos, what did he tell you, and what did he answer? Of course, I will tell you,

We are in a weak position; we cannot expel them.

They will leave on their own. He tells me that a war will break out in the region, and it will

last for about four years

And it will be a global war. Many forces will participate.

. Obviously, yes, and he will be forced to transfer

All of his war materials and troops that he has in Cyprus.

Yes. To take them to replace the

A's.

Indeed. And just as you left

With the buses, with the trucks, that's how you'll put it back.

And first and foremost, people will be killed, and

We won't participate in anything. We will kill because who would leave now from

Those who remembered there, married their children, even for a while, the same will.

Happen in the free middle, that is,

The Turks will go to their homes and relatives.

Or there will be an exchange of populations so that everyone goes to their homes.

Yes, this is what Elder Paisius told you, so

Listen to the strangest part. Yes,

I tell him, Well, when will it happen? It won't happen. As long as

Communism was going on in Russia for 70 years. 77.

But in '89, communism, you told him, old man,

Communism didn't see it. Yes

The legs of the beast tremble. He tells me, wherever it is, you were shouting and shouting.

But in Cyprus, he didn't

Foresee his attitude, either. Yes, and why will the war happen? The war

It will happen for water, but he didn't explain to me which water. It could be

Seawater. It

It could be our time now. I don't remember.

It's a shocking masterstroke of yours, Mr. Xenophon. Where do you come from

? You haven't really told us things that

They aren't even recorded in the book we mentioned before.

And look, when I was in Cyprus,

Yes. I said it; I said it to you a lot.

No one believed me, and no one even bothered me.

Hang up on 9394. Since the fall of communism, many people.

Have been calling me and saying, "Andreas, I'm sorry ."

του Αγίου Λουκά του Ιατρού.

🇬🇷 

Κείμενο στα Ελληνικά – Άγιος Λουκάς ο Ιατρός

Άγιε του Θεού, πρέσβευε υπέρ ημών.

Αν ένα άτομο είναι συνεχώς ενοχλημένο και θυμωμένο, αυτό είναι το πρώτο σημάδι ότι ελέγχεται από ένα κακό πνεύμα. Ο θυμός είναι η δύναμη από την οποία τρέφεται ο δαίμονας. Ένα άτομο που έχει επιτρέψει στον θυμό να εισχωρήσει στην καρδιά του δεν μπορεί πλέον να ακούσει τον Θεό και ελέγχεται εύκολα από τα κακά πνεύματα. Οι σκοτεινές δυνάμεις είναι κακές και τρέφονται με το κακό. Αυτό οδηγεί σε θόλωση του νου: εμφανίζεται κακία, καταδίκη και η επιθυμία για διάπραξη αμαρτιών. Το άτομο αρχίζει να κρίνει, να καταδικάζει και να συκοφαντεί — ο δαίμονας αγαπά αυτό, γιατί τρέφεται με τέτοιες κακίες. Όταν ένα άτομο διαπράττει αμαρτίες χωρίς να το καταλαβαίνει, νομίζει ότι κάνει το σωστό, αλλά αυτό είναι ωφέλιμο για τον δαίμονα.

Έτσι ακριβώς κρατά ο δαίμονας έναν άνθρωπο, και όταν έρθει η κρίση, ένα τέτοιο άτομο δεν θα μπορέσει να ανέβει στον ουρανό, αλλά θα κατέβει στον κάτω κόσμο, θα υπηρετήσει τις σκοτεινές δυνάμεις εκεί και θα υποφέρει. Όταν ένα άτομο ελέγχεται από κακές δυνάμεις, δεν το καταλαβαίνει και ζει μια συνηθισμένη ζωή, ενώ η ψυχή του βαθμιαία καλύπτεται από βρωμιά και υποχωρεί. Θέλει να επιστρέψει σπίτι, αλλά δεν μπορεί, επειδή άλλοι «δάσκαλοι» είναι ήδη εκεί. Χάνει την ικανότητα να συγχωρεί και να νιώθει χαρά, επειδή ο δαίμονας κάνει την καρδιά σκληρή και πετρώδη. Η υπερηφάνεια, που ζει σε μια τέτοια καρδιά, υπαγορεύει τους κανόνες της: «Γιατί να συγχωρέσω;» — και το άτομο πιστεύει αυτές τις κακές σκέψεις, χωρίς να συνειδητοποιεί ότι δεν είναι η δική του φωνή που μιλά. Ως αποτέλεσμα, το κακό μέσα του πολλαπλασιάζεται και γίνεται ακόμη χειρότερο, επειδή μια καρδιά χωρίς ψυχή και αγάπη γίνεται πόρτα από την οποία εισέρχονται οι κακές δυνάμεις.

Όταν το σκοτάδι κυβερνά ένα άτομο, επιδιώκει να ελέγχει τους άλλους. Τέτοιοι άνθρωποι διεισδύουν στις ζωές των άλλων, προσπαθώντας να επιβάλουν τη δική τους τάξη, να δώσουν συμβουλές και να καταδικάσουν, ενώ οι ίδιοι δεν ξέρουν πώς να κάνουν αυτά σωστά. Ένα άτομο που διψά για δύναμη και καταπίεση δεν υπηρετεί πλέον τον Θεό, αλλά τις σκοτεινές δυνάμεις, αγνοώντας ότι έχει γίνει σκλάβος τους. Η έλλειψη προσευχής και η απροθυμία για μετάνοια είναι άλλο σημάδι δαιμονικής κατοχής. Ο δαίμονας ψιθυρίζει: «Δεν έχεις τίποτα να μετανοήσεις, δεν έχεις αμαρτίες», και η προσευχή γίνεται αφόρητη γι’ αυτόν. Όποιος δεν προσεύχεται, δεν καθαρίζει το πνευματικό του σπίτι· όποιος δεν μετανοεί, το γεμίζει με αμαρτίες. Ο δαίμονας αγαπά αυτούς που δεν μετανοούν και ζουν άτακτα, γιατί χωρίς μετάνοια το άτομο αποδυναμώνεται και γίνεται ανυπεράσπιστο.

Όταν ένα άτομο αρχίζει να καθαρίζει τον εαυτό του και να στέκεται στον δρόμο της αλήθειας, αυτό είναι ασύμφορο για τους δαίμονες, και προσπαθούν με όλη τους τη δύναμη να τον παραπλανήσουν, εκμεταλλευόμενοι παλιές συνήθειες. Ο δρόμος προς τον Θεό είναι γεμάτος δοκιμασίες: όσο πιο κοντά στο φως, τόσο ισχυρότεροι οι πειρασμοί. Ο Κύριος προειδοποιεί: αν ένα άτομο καθαρίσει την ψυχή του από την αμαρτία αλλά δεν τη γεμίσει με τον Θεό, το κακό θα επιστρέψει, και η κατάσταση θα είναι ακόμη χειρότερη. Το Ευαγγέλιο λέει: «Όταν ένα ακάθαρτο πνεύμα βγει από έναν άνθρωπο… επιστρέφει… και βρίσκει το σπίτι του άδειο… και παίρνει μαζί του επτά άλλα πνεύματα πιο πονηρά… και η κατοικία του γίνεται χειρότερη από την πρώτη» (Ματθαίος 12:43-45).

Αν έχετε σκοντάψει, μην φοβάστε να παραδεχτείτε την ενοχή σας και να μετανοήσετε ειλικρινά. Αναγνωρίστε την αμαρτία σας και μην την επαναλάβετε — τότε η αμαρτία δεν θα σας κυριεύει. Πρέπει να ξέρουμε πώς να αναγνωρίζουμε την παρουσία των δαιμόνων στις καρδιές μας, γιατί αν δεν ξέρουμε να τους αναγνωρίζουμε, δεν θα μπορέσουμε να τους πολεμήσουμε. Να ξέρετε ότι κάθε φορά που θυμώνετε…

«Αν βρίζετε και μαλώνετε με τους αγαπημένους σας, αν το κακό και το μίσος βράζουν στην καρδιά σας, να ξέρετε ότι δαίμονες εργάζονται στην καρδιά σας. Συνέλθετε, σταυρωθείτε και αρχίστε τον αγώνα ενάντια στους δαίμονες.»

上帝的圣人，为我们代祷。

如果一个人持续烦躁和愤怒，这是他受到邪灵控制的第一个迹象。愤怒是恶魔赖以生存的力量。允许愤怒进入内心的人无法再听到上帝的声音。他们很容易被邪灵控制。黑暗势力邪恶，以邪恶为食。这会导致心智混乱：出现恶意、判断和犯罪的欲望。这个人开始评判、谴责和诽谤——恶魔喜爱这种行为，因为它以这些邪恶为食。当一个人在不自觉中犯罪时，他以为自己在做正确的事，但实际上这对恶魔有利。

恶魔就是这样控制人的，当审判来临时，这样的人无法升入天堂，而会下降到地狱，服侍黑暗势力并受苦。当一个人被邪恶力量控制时，他没有察觉，过着普通的生活，而灵魂逐渐被污秽覆盖并退缩。他想回家，但无法回去，因为其他“主人”已经在那里。他失去了宽恕和喜悦的能力，因为恶魔让他的心像石头一样坚硬。居住在这样的心中的骄傲说：“为什么要原谅？”——而这个人相信这些邪恶的念头，却没有意识到这不是他自己的声音。结果，内心的恶不断增加，他变得更糟，因为没有灵魂和爱的心成为邪恶力量进入的门户。

当黑暗支配一个人时，他试图控制他人。这种人侵入他人的生活，提供建议、批评和谴责，但他们自己并不真正知道如何去做。渴望权力的人不再侍奉上帝，而是侍奉黑暗力量，却没有意识到自己已成为它们的奴隶。缺乏祈祷和不愿悔改是恶魔附身的另一个标志。恶魔低语：“你没有罪，不需要悔改。”祈祷因此变得难以承受。谁不祈祷，谁就不清理自己的灵性之屋；谁不悔改，谁就充满罪恶。恶魔喜爱这样的不悔改且无秩序的人，因为没有悔改，人就会变得虚弱和无助。

通往上帝的道路充满考验：越接近光明，诱惑越强。主警告说：如果一个人清理了灵魂，却没有以上帝充满它，恶会回来，情况会更糟。《福音书》说：“当污灵离开人…它回来…发现房子空荡荡…并带来七个比它更邪恶的灵…”（马太福音 12:43-45）。如果你跌倒，不要害怕承认你的罪过并真诚悔改。承认你的罪，不再重复——罪就不会再支配你。

“我们必须学会识别心中恶魔的存在；如果我们不识别它们，就无法与它们作战。知道，每当你生气时……”

“如果你对你所爱的人大喊大叫、辱骂和争吵，如果仇恨和邪恶在你心中沸腾——知道恶魔正在你的心中工作。醒来，画十字架，开始与他们的斗争。”

上帝的聖人，為我們代禱。

如果一個人持續煩躁和憤怒，這是他受到邪靈控制的第一個跡象。憤怒是惡魔賴以生存的力量。允許憤怒進入內心的人無法再聽到上帝的聲音。他們很容易被邪靈控制。黑暗勢力邪惡，以邪惡為食。這會導致心智混亂：出現惡意、判斷和犯罪的欲望。這個人開始評判、譴責和誹謗——惡魔喜愛這種行為，因為它以這些邪惡為食。當一個人在不自覺中犯罪時，他以為自己在做正確的事，但實際上這對惡魔有利。

惡魔就是這樣控制人的，當審判來臨時，這樣的人無法升入天堂，而會下降到地獄，服侍黑暗勢力並受苦。當一個人被邪惡力量控制時，他沒有察覺，過著普通的生活，而靈魂逐漸被污穢覆蓋並退縮。他想回家，但無法回去，因為其他“主人”已經在那裡。他失去了寬恕和喜悅的能力，因為惡魔讓他的心像石頭一樣堅硬。居住在這樣的心中的驕傲說：「為什麼要原諒？」——而這個人相信這些邪惡的念頭，卻沒有意識到這不是他自己的聲音。結果，內心的惡不斷增加，他變得更糟，因為沒有靈魂和愛的心成為邪惡力量進入的門戶。

當黑暗支配一個人時，他試圖控制他人。這種人侵入他人的生活，提供建議、批評和譴責，但他們自己並不真正知道如何去做。渴望權力的人不再侍奉上帝，而是侍奉黑暗力量，卻沒有意識到自己已成為它們的奴隸。缺乏祈禱和不願悔改是惡魔附身的另一個標誌。惡魔低語：「你沒有罪，不需要悔改。」祈禱因此變得難以承受。誰不祈禱，誰就不清理自己的靈性之屋；誰不悔改，誰就充滿罪惡。惡魔喜愛這樣的不悔改且無秩序的人，因為沒有悔改，人就會變得虛弱和無助。

通往上帝的道路充滿考驗：越接近光明，誘惑越強。主警告說：如果一個人清理了靈魂，卻沒有以上帝充滿它，惡會回來，情況會更糟。《福音書》說：「當污靈離開人…它回來…發現房子空蕩蕩…並帶來七個比它更邪惡的靈…」（馬太福音 12:43-45）。如果你跌倒，不要害怕承認你的罪過並真誠悔改。承認你的罪，不再重複——罪就不會再支配你。

「我們必須學會識別心中惡魔的存在；如果我們不識別它們，就無法與它們作戰。知道，每當你生氣時……」

「如果你對你所愛的人大喊大叫、辱罵和爭吵，如果仇恨和邪惡在你心中沸騰——知道惡魔正在你的心中工作。醒來，畫十字架，開始與他們的鬥爭。」

ΙΝΔΟΝΗΣΙΑΚΑ

Kudus Allah, doakanlah bagi kami.

Jika seseorang terus-menerus gelisah dan marah, itu adalah tanda pertama bahwa ia berada di bawah pengaruh roh jahat. Kemarahan adalah kekuatan yang memberi makan setan. Seseorang yang membiarkan kemarahan masuk ke dalam hatinya tidak lagi mampu mendengar Tuhan. Ia dengan mudah dikuasai oleh roh-roh jahat. Kekuatan gelap itu jahat dan hidup dari kejahatan. Ini menyebabkan kekaburan pikiran: muncul kejahatan, penghakiman, dan keinginan untuk berbuat dosa. Orang itu mulai menghakimi, mengutuk, dan memfitnah—setan menyukai ini karena ia memakan keburukan itu. Ketika seseorang melakukan dosa tanpa menyadarinya, ia berpikir ia benar, namun itu menguntungkan setan.

Begitulah setan mengikat seseorang, dan ketika penghakiman datang, ia tidak dapat naik ke surga, tetapi turun ke dunia bawah dan melayani kekuatan gelap serta menderita. Ketika seseorang dikuasai oleh kekuatan jahat, ia tidak menyadarinya dan menjalani hidup biasa, sementara jiwanya perlahan tertutup kotoran dan melemah. Ia ingin kembali kepada Tuhan, tetapi tidak bisa karena “guru lain” sudah tinggal di sana. Ia kehilangan kemampuan untuk mengampuni dan merasakan sukacita, sebab setan membuat hati menjadi keras dan seperti batu. Keangkuhan yang tinggal di hati semacam itu berkata: “Mengapa harus memaafkan?”—dan orang itu percaya pada pikiran jahat itu tanpa sadar bahwa itu bukan suaranya sendiri. Akibatnya, kejahatan berlipat ganda, dan ia menjadi lebih buruk, karena hati tanpa jiwa dan cinta menjadi pintu masuk bagi kekuatan gelap.

Ketika kegelapan menguasai seseorang, ia berusaha menguasai orang lain. Orang seperti itu masuk ke kehidupan orang lain, memberi nasihat, mengkritik, dan menyalahkan, padahal mereka sendiri tidak tahu bagaimana melakukannya. Seseorang yang haus kekuasaan tidak lagi melayani Tuhan tetapi melayani kekuatan gelap, tanpa menyadari bahwa ia telah menjadi budak mereka. Kurangnya doa dan ketidakinginan untuk bertobat adalah tanda lain dari pengaruh setan. Setan berbisik: “Kamu tidak punya dosa, tidak perlu bertobat,” dan doa menjadi beban. Siapa yang tidak berdoa tidak membersihkan rumah rohaninya; siapa yang tidak bertobat mengisinya dengan dosa. Setan mencintai orang yang keras kepala dan tidak bertobat karena tanpa pertobatan seseorang menjadi lemah dan tak berdaya.

Jalan menuju Tuhan penuh ujian: semakin dekat dengan terang, semakin kuat pencobaan. Tuhan memperingatkan: jika seseorang membersihkan jiwanya tetapi tidak mengisinya dengan Tuhan, kejahatan akan kembali dan keadaannya akan lebih buruk. Injil berkata: “Ketika roh najis keluar… ia kembali… dan menemukan rumahnya kosong… dan membawa tujuh roh yang lebih jahat…” (Matius 12:43-45). Jika kamu jatuh, jangan takut mengakui kesalahanmu dan bertobat dengan tulus. Akuilah dosamu dan jangan ulangi lagi—maka dosa tidak akan lagi memerintahmu.

“Kita harus belajar mengenali kehadiran setan di dalam hati kita. Jika kita tidak mengenalinya, kita tidak dapat melawannya. Ketahuilah: setiap kali kamu marah…”

“Jika kamu berteriak, menghina, dan bertengkar dengan orang-orang yang kamu cintai, jika kebencian dan kejahatan mendidih di hatimu—ketahuilah bahwa setan sedang bekerja di sana. Sadarlah, buat tanda salib, dan mulailah perjuangan melawan mereka.”

( St. Luka Sang Tabib + )

ΑΓΓΛΙΚΑ

Saint of God, intercede for us.

If a person is constantly irritated and angry, this is the first sign that they are influenced by an evil spirit. Anger is the power that nourishes the demon. A person who has allowed anger into their heart can no longer hear God. They become easily controlled by evil spirits. Dark forces are wicked and feed on wickedness. This leads to a clouding of the mind: malice appears, judgment, and the desire to commit sins. The person begins to judge, condemn, and slander—this delights the demon, because he feeds on such evils. When a person commits sins without realizing it, thinking they are doing what is right, it is actually to the benefit of the demon.

Thus the demon holds a man captive, and when judgment comes, such a person cannot ascend to heaven, but descends into the underworld to serve the dark forces and suffer. When a person is controlled by evil powers, they do not understand it and live an ordinary life, while their soul is gradually covered with filth and retreats. They want to return home, but they cannot, for other masters have already taken residence there. They lose the ability to forgive and rejoice, because the demon hardens the heart like stone. Pride, which lives in such a heart, dictates its rules: “Why forgive?”—and the person believes these wicked thoughts, not realizing that it is not their own voice speaking. As a result, the evil within multiplies and they become worse, because a heart without soul and love becomes a doorway for dark forces.

When darkness rules a person, they seek to control others. Such people intrude into the lives of others, giving advice, criticizing, and condemning—things they themselves do not know how to do. A person thirsty for power no longer serves God but serves dark forces, unaware that they have become their slave. The absence of prayer and the refusal to repent is another sign of demonic influence. The demon whispers: “You have nothing to repent for, you have no sins,” and prayer becomes unbearable. He who does not pray does not cleanse his spiritual home; he who does not repent fills it with sins. The demon loves such unrepentant and disordered people because without repentance the person becomes weak and defenseless.

The path to God is full of trials: the closer to the light, the stronger the temptations. The Lord warns: if someone cleanses his soul but does not fill it with God, evil will return, and the state will be worse. The Gospel says: “When the unclean spirit goes out… it returns… finds the house empty… and brings seven spirits more wicked…” (Matthew 12:43-45). If you have stumbled, do not be afraid to admit your guilt and truly repent. Acknowledge your sin and do not repeat it—then it will no longer rule you.

“We must learn to recognize the presence of demons in our hearts; if we do not recognize them, we cannot fight them. Know that every time you are angry…”

“If you shout, insult, and quarrel with your loved ones, if hatred and evil boil in your heart—know that demons are working in your heart. Come to your senses, make the sign of the Cross, and begin the struggle against them.”

(St. Luke the Physician +)

ΡΩΣΙΚΑ

Святой Божий, моли Бога о нас.

Если человек постоянно раздражён и зол, это первый признак того, что он находится под влиянием злого духа. Гнев — это сила, которой питается демон. Человек, впустивший гнев в своё сердце, больше не может слышать Бога. Им легко управляют злые духи. Тёмные силы злы и питаются злом. Это приводит к омрачению ума: появляется злоба, осуждение и стремление ко греху. Человек начинает судить, осуждать и клеветать — демон любит это, потому что питается такими пороками. Когда человек грешит и не замечает этого, думая, что делает правильное, — это выгодно демону.

Так демон удерживает человека, и когда придёт суд, такой человек не сможет подняться на небо, но сойдёт вниз, чтобы служить тёмным силам и страдать. Когда человек управляется злыми силами, он этого не понимает и живёт обычной жизнью, но его душа постепенно покрывается грязью и умирает. Он хочет вернуться домой, к Богу, но не может — там уже другие «хозяева». Он теряет способность прощать и радоваться, потому что демон делает сердце твёрдым, как камень. Гордость, живущая в таком сердце, говорит: «Зачем прощать?» — и человек верит этим злым мыслям, не понимая, что это не его голос. В итоге зло умножается, и человек становится хуже, потому что сердце без души и любви становится дверью, через которую входят тёмные силы.

Когда тьма управляет человеком, он стремится управлять другими. Такие люди вмешиваются в жизнь других, дают советы, осуждают, хотя сами не знают, как жить. Человек, жаждущий власти и подавления, уже не служит Богу, а служит силам тьмы, не понимая, что стал их рабом. Отсутствие молитвы и нежелание каяться — ещё один признак демонического влияния. Демон шепчет: «Тебе не в чем каяться, у тебя нет грехов», и молитва становится невыносимой. Тот, кто не молится, не очищает свой духовный дом; тот, кто не кается, наполняет его грехами. Демон любит таких нераскаянных и беспорядочных людей, потому что без покаяния человек становится слабым и беззащитным.

Путь к Богу полон испытаний: чем ближе к свету, тем сильнее искушения. Господь предупреждает: если человек очистит свою душу, но не наполнит её Богом, зло вернётся, и станет ещё хуже. В Евангелии сказано: «Когда нечистый дух выйдет… и, возвратившись, найдёт дом пустым… и приведёт семь духов злейших…» (Матфей 12:43-45). Если ты пал, не бойся признать свою вину и искренне покаяться. Признай свой грех и не повторяй его — тогда он перестанет властвовать над тобой.

«Мы должны научиться распознавать присутствие демонов в сердце. Если мы не распознаём их, мы не сможем бороться с ними. Знайте: каждый раз, когда вы гневаетесь…»

«Если вы кричите, ругаетесь, обижаете близких, если зло и ненависть кипят в сердце — знайте, что в вашем сердце работают демоны. Очнитесь, перекреститесь и начинайте борьбу с ними.»

(Святой Лука Врач +)

ΤΟΥΡΚΙΚΑ (πρόσθετη γλώσσα)

Allah’ın Aziz’i, bizim için şefaat et.

Bir insan sürekli huzursuz ve öfkeli ise, bu onun kötü bir ruhun etkisi altında olduğunun ilk işaretidir. Öfke, şeytanın beslendiği güçtür. Öfkeyi kalbine alan kişi artık Tanrı’yı duyamaz. Kötü ruhlar onu kolayca yönetir. Karanlık güçler kötüdür ve kötülükle beslenir. Bu da zihnin kararmasına, kötülük, yargılama ve günah işleme isteğine yol açar. Kişi yargılar, kınar ve iftira eder—şeytan bunu sever, çünkü bu kötülüklerden beslenir. Kişi günah işler ve fark etmez; doğru yaptığını sanır, ama bu şeytana yarar sağlar.

Böylece şeytan insanı elinde tutar ve yargı günü geldiğinde o kişi göğe çıkamaz, yer altına iner ve karanlık güçlere hizmet eder, acı çeker. Kişi kötü güçlerin kontrolünde olduğunda bunu fark etmez, normal bir yaşam sürer, fakat ruhu yavaş yavaş kirle kaplanır ve zayıflar. Eve, Tanrı’ya dönmek ister ama dönemez, çünkü kalbine başka “efendiler” yerleşmiştir. Affetme ve sevinme yeteneğini kaybeder, çünkü şeytan kalbi taş gibi sertleştirir. Böyle bir kalpte yaşayan kibir şöyle der: “Neden affedesin?”—ve kişi bu kötü düşüncelere inanır, bunların kendi sesi olmadığını fark etmez. Sonunda içindeki kötülük çoğalır ve daha kötü hale gelir; çünkü ruhsuz ve sevgisiz bir kalp, karanlık güçler için kapı olur.

Karanlık bir kişiyi yönetmeye başladığında, o kişi de başkalarını yönetmek ister. Bu insanlar başkalarının hayatına girer, tavsiye verir, kınar—kendileri doğru yaşamayı bilmeseler bile. Güç ve kontrol arzusu olan kişi artık Tanrı’ya hizmet etmez; karanlık güçlere hizmet eder, onların kölesi olduğunun farkında bile değildir. Dua etmeme ve tövbe etmeme hâli, şeytani etkinin başka bir işaretidir. Şeytan şöyle fısıldar: “Tövbe edecek bir şeyin yok, günahın yok.” Böylece dua dayanılmaz olur. Dua etmeyen ruhunu temizlemez; tövbe etmeyen günahla doldurur. Şeytan tövbesiz insanları sever; çünkü böyle insanlar zayıf ve savunmasız hâle gelir.

Tanrı’ya giden yol sınavlarla doludur: ışığa ne kadar yaklaşılırsa, sınamalar o kadar güçlü olur. Rab uyarır: bir insan ruhunu temizler ama onu Tanrı ile doldurmazsa, kötülük geri döner ve durumu daha kötü olur. İncil’de şöyle yazılıdır: “Pis ruh çıktığında… döner… evi boş bulur… ve kendisinden daha kötü yedi ruh getirir…” (Matta 12:43-45). Eğer düştüysen, suçunu kabul etmekten ve içtenlikle tövbe etmekten korkma. Günahını kabul et ve tekrar etme—o zaman günah seni yönetemez.

“Kalbimizdeki şeytanların varlığını tanımayı öğrenmeliyiz. Onları tanımazsak onlarla savaşamayız. Bilin ki her öfkelendiğinizde…”

“Eğer sevdiklerinize bağırıyor, hakaret ediyor, kavga ediyorsanız; kalbinizde nefret ve kötülük kaynıyorsa, bilin ki şeytanlar kalbinizde çalışıyor. Kendinize gelin, haç çıkarın ve onlarla savaşmaya başlayın.”

(Aziz Luka Doktor +)
