2024"29/05/2024 - Spiritual Gathering for a Dialogue with Metropolitan N...

for the reason you asked, I would like to start with a question that came to us from a girl

from Chios that concerns the current situation we are living in

and which is a kind of prologue that introduces us to some of the following questions yes that have come

your honor, bless you this question is the

I am writing to you from Chios, the island of St. Anthimos and many other saints, since

this candle is lit on May 29, the black anniversary of the sacking of the

City by the Turks

. at the time

shortly before the fall of the economy of the empire

was then in the hands of the Venetians as it is now in the hands of the Germans

morals had derailed as they have and now the institutions had degenerated as

now the rich, the powerful, and in general the ruling class lived under the burden of the poor

taxation was devastating as now the people were in a depression

they were abandoned to their fate they lost the will to live and awaited the

fatal they felt betrayed by everyone which demoralized the

people more than anything else was the betrayal from the leadership of the

church he went like a beggar to the West and they asked for salvation from those who

did so much destruction in 1204

it is desecrated and by grabbing they did not ask for help from God but from the heretics and much more from the destruction of

1204 and today the common celebration of Easter with the papists being discussed for 2025 in Nicea

Bithynia it is very likely to lead to a new Ferrara Florence without st

Marco kind to resist this depressed state

led to the fall in 1453 now which will surely lead to

some great evil since as you said in the previous lighter our repentance is

Windy how can we make it less bad thank you in advance

may god bless you to possess us guide us and generally

open our eyes because unfortunately, the hierarchs in Greece have embraced

secularization and are moving forward to some dark place

Christ

has risen, it is true that the dear

Anthi, what is the name of the Chiotissa who sent this,

I wouldn't call it a question, this

the statement has darkened our hearts, of course, what

he writes and other things he implies are not far from

the reality, so you realize that my position now is somewhat

difficult, but I will speak with the well-known equanimity that

I have, everything that Anthi writes is

reality, but there is a danger in seeing this

reality, which is not the best for modern Hellenism and Orthodoxy,

no just to get us depressed that

already research was done by the European

Union Greece is the first depressant

drugs so how can it not be as

they have done to the modern Greek, not the Russians, not the

Turks but his allies the Europeans and the

Americans and this is what the Greeks said are not a

the phenomenon that happened now, is a phenomenon that has been going on for decades

that has been developing in Greece, the goal is that the

Greek must stop being the lively,

intelligent, friendly person years now decades now this new Greek where he is

they are falsifying him so that I can

control him, the worst thing is that there are no voices in the

the church they were running to emphasize and

raise awareness of the modern Orthodox Greek, we went through

all these phenomena in recent years, I think

our attitude toward what science and faith mean has been shown over the years and in the

period of the coronavirus what does it mean to be ecclesiastical

wise with both the hummingbird and the Ukrainian later all these immoral

laws are made by our parliamentarians

and the

embraces and common liturgical life continues with those who voted for these

anti-god and immoral

laws in Constantinople at that time existed in

1453 there was a large portion of Christian Roma as this was how

the Orthodox Greeks were defined at that time as the wider empire who

were reacting against the tactics of both

the paleologists and the previous dynasty of the Angels who

were so friendly that the Pope would help them

to contain the pressure of Turkey on the Ottoman Empire at the time

and they had not themselves taken the first lesson the first lesson that

our patriots at the time had to learn

was that in

12004 it was not the Turk who entered the town and

robbed and killed and stole but

they were the crusaders of the then-so-called Third Crusade was it the Third or

fourth the fourth was the fourth the third was when I came to

Cyprus and while this terrible

event happened that the city and its surroundings were occupied for about 70

years by the homodos as we thought with

Christians in the West and all these things happened

when we were studying together with the archbishop of our metropolis, father

Photios, the life of Saint Mama who is the patron saint of the metropolis of

Morfos and we found the description when he entered

the temple that enshrines the relics of Saint Mama in

Constantinople and says that he entered the

roofs and they were looking for the relic of the holy mother in

124 What I am telling you and the orthodox monks were on their knees and

begged you not to take it all leave us also something no they caught the whole

cart and carried it to the Ar of France and

I worshiped and then some other pieces

of the saint's relics were found in other parts of Greece, I know in

Evia in a monastery where we also found a small piece of the

saint's cart, I want to say that even the relics that should have been respected

like Christ, let our people respect them, but they continued to

have this orientation, rather revenge was not that orientation,

let's not spoil the words, so all these years that followed

after the first massacre that took place, the first massacre, you know, happened

1204 in 453 was the second invasion and when we entered

Europe it was the third invasion now

we are living the results of the third

invasion but who explained this world to me the journalists often say to

me since you are a good speaker come to one of our shows yes I tell them but what I'm about to say might raise

your station's audience for a moment but hey you have a problem who are we going to have

a problem your boss I'll tell you why are you wearing that crazy face

we don't want these things to be heard so no one knows today among the younger ones that

we are living in the rhythms of the third

dispensation tell me how far this situation will go and until

the dispensation is completed that is where the

thing will go do you think it is a coincidence that the

saints reveal gay len that they must there is

a war, it is a coincidence that the day before yesterday we had the feast of St. John

of the Russian and we all know that before St. Jacob went to sleep, Tsalikis,

passing from the pilgrimage to the prokopi, went and talked to the

saint and said to him a lot of disrespect, Father Jacob,

a lot of infidelity and we talked in 1990, about what would

Saint James says now, as he was so noble and compassionate and

tried to reassure Saint John the Russian, he said no, there must

be a war, he told you three times, but do you think the saints say

their opinions, the saints they are the people who have identified their will with the will of

God, so when a saint says and it is not one, many have told us

these things, we must ask ourselves what has happened to humanity as a whole and there must be a war to

cleanse it so humanity what has been done

is very simple I will tell you this you have realized humanity as a whole

has now worshiped the works of satan

satan so please don't interrupt anything neither bravo nor six bravos

then I may say something you disagree with what will happen, that is to say, no, we don't work like that here, that's how we are, we don't work like that

democratically, it is an enlightened despotism here, yes, and you understand what I mean, and

if you don't understand, your enlightened husband will explain to you sometimes, not

always, sometimes like that, and

he who revealed it is the current breakdown of

the whole society, not only the Greek one or in the days of our

latest is eurovision eurovision is an

image of the quality of the artistic quality

that the European world has the European world with the

Eurovision institutions reach as far as Azerbaijan Israel and

Australia so what was not only this year of course

it was the full disclosure but all these years

they have been preparing us to tell us you know some

of you may be Christian or catholic or

protestant or Orthodox some may be Buddhist and

many others may be Muslim but know that we the countries of Europe

recommend you and a fourth religion, satanism, this is what Europe told us,

so how many have understood

this, looking for the solutions so that the

creation of the universe is not handed over to Satan, at the moment the only solution that

is visible since our repentance, as we said, is a wind

or and in a lot of phobias the only solution

is to beg for the evil to come less and for the war to be

milder it is already happening Syria is next to

Israel is next to us Palestine is next to us

Ukraine stay the war there for so many

years all these will come together and give a way out my dears how we called you

anti and athi will become

xanthic this is what I have to say to the sister here writes here about the popes for

the common celebration of Easter which was announced by our patriarch the patriarch of the

Greek race Bartholomew of Constantinople the ecumenical for 2025 he even characterized it as

a scandal that we do not have a common Easter, but, Holy of Holies, how will we have a common Easter

since we do not have a common faith, so to have a common Easter, a common holiday

, that is, we must have a common faith, isn't that the case now, you are a new woman you are sitting there with your blond hair

you have a man you have a man so when he is not faithful what celebration will you have with

him my honey tell me I will put it like this just to simplify it completely what celebration will

you have with him so we will celebrate him

year with the Pope when he has at least 25

malpractices and heresies but it seems that all these

events the common celebration in 2025 that they profess

that this scandal should end or

the ordination that took place down in Africa of an African girl said by the Cypriot and filtrate nonbrother

seraphim all this is the continuation of the Columbarium is the

columbarium is the synod of the pan-orthodox that was held on the pan-orthodox it was on the

26th so they are not isolated statements

and events these are events that

have started since then they have been focused on since then they were preparing

the ground so it was now the

world pay attention to what we are going to say now it concerns us present here

and those who agree with our views

they sent us all these questions only for one month yes others the

previous ones we did not answer half of the questions were for

the joint celebration of Easter with the popes in 2025 the Eurovision the Eurovision the ordination of the woman who

took place in the horse and anxiety came out through the

questions that orthodoxy is being destroyed sorry but orthodoxy is not

United Europe nor is it the United States

of America, nor Russia, Orthodoxy is the

saints from the moment they are born saints within Orthodoxy, Orthodoxy

has nothing to fear, nothing, nothing, and Marko kind will come out if

necessary, and those fathers and mothers who constantly hear everywhere that there is

a successor of James, the successor of Paisius, the successor of Porphyry there was the old woman

Galactides 3 years ago in 1919 and it happened, I was told by some who

took me from Crete, a memorial service with a thousand attendees and everyone recounting

the miracles that the old woman Galactis did for them, who had prepared us for

the coming war and our global war and our local one

he prepared the immoral bills for the

After all this, he prepared us for the war in Syria

they told us long before that it will break out and it will not

stop so other things will happen in the future

then we lean on the saints, the

saint is the graceful man, the man who

assimilated the grace of the holy spirit both in his body and in

his soul and we certainly do not have anxiety, said the saint Paisius, but we do not have anxiety,

we do not have anxiety, we do not have the feeling that I'm being destroyed but

sorry and illness come to me as they came to me and poverty come to me

and refugees come to me I didn't understand what is our destination I didn't understand

we have no ties like a city but they left it we asked for it we believe this

seems not the most we believe is our maid our

neighborhood our family come on come on if we are even a little patriotic and

our country and orthodoxy do not abolish all these but it does not make them ideal

because it comes and tells you my ideals it is the

the holiness of the union with Christ the godly sympathy of the saints together with

all the saints since

we follow the saints whether old or new glory the

god in the new age because the providence of the triune god saw that they would come with

so many weak leaders in our political and

ecclesiastical affairs he sent us other leaders to inspire us and guide us both for the

present and for the future of our saints this anxiety which is expressed in many

questions as a man of God once told me who lives somewhere alone

and prays for all of us I trust him and I consult him he said to me despot you told me about the prophetic word of the saints enough period

now the prophecies become

news and you know he tells me why you should stop protecting

first, the basics that you had to say so that a

the guidance you said it and some others there is also the internet which

of course, is not always a safe medium but it is a medium for us

poor to have our voice heard but it needs a lot of

discrimination in what we watch and what we believe from the internet

so he told me a man of god too much

preoccupation with prophecy reduces the attention of the mind to

prayer m and think

daily to be inside the websites Christian and not others to

criticize the patriarch's others the poor zip who did the

ordination and we don't know what kind of ordination did the man in the meantime or if his synod of Alexandria gave him a blessing to do it so we

should not be directed against the living pope but to formally ask as

the Orthodox Church of Cyprus the Patriarchate of Alexandria

type of ordination is what you do when the Saint Epiphanius of Cyprus, Saint

Epiphanius died in

401, he was metropolitan of Constantia for 40 years,

thanks to him and the apostle Barnabas, we have an autocephaly, the Cypriots, when

Ukraine is still fighting for its autocephaly,

and since then the saint writes that the so-called deaconesses did not have the

rank of the deacon of the priesthood, but they were simple,

simple auxiliary personnel, something like an upgraded neo-chorus, especially for

baptisms that were then performed for women, and in some

monasteries, when you find it difficult for the vicar to do some simple acts there as well,

but who do not participate

after the liturgy and the sacraments, we all have men and women in the general priesthood, the special priesthood

is given only to men, so we should keep these simple

things in mind, not to panic as soon as we see that

some hierarch, some patriarchs, some who have the

gift of speech or of the control to do the

control to have a reason I'm not saying to keep quiet and get angry about things but

not to send the form 40 questions and 20 of them to be

self-destructive that is to say we are destroyed we are going we are

going to eternal life we ​​are going to understand this

do you want to ask another question or not you want to ask me something that

I didn't answer I should have asked a question from the text that is related

to the previous ones and let's close it yes change the subject a question came about Eurovision where please answer it but with this

particular father of ours I have great anxiety about whether TV viewing and the

photos from the Eurovision spectacles of a satanic ceremony and invocation can be

demonized enslaved to the antichrist

can it have any meaning or is it in vain Elizabeth is the 24th question

because I also like to see yes yes

24th yes this is a very important question it does not only concern Eurovision but

what we see either on TV or on the internet or in our videos or on our phones our tet because we live

in the age of IT the question

is whether it can

He was possessed, by brothers, some 15-16-year-old children who were watching.

Eurovision showed symptoms of demonic possession in the morning,

one of them says that I live in an atheistic

family, why was his reaction like that, he said, I want him to leave, I don't want to

see him, I can't stand it to see him, the parents thought the child was delirious

and they couldn't bring him to a doctor, the doctor said, but I don't understand

if there is anything pathological, what is it with our child who sees someone

who doesn't want to see him and the child gave one to the door and where do you think he went to the church in the neighborhood that he never entered and

cried out to him for Christ and said to him please get him out of my sight

so I don't see him that is what it means the grace of baptism that he had inside him

he informed him that what he sees is some demonic spirit

that because of what he sees the child is excited by Eurovision and

showed a tendency to pleasure and from what

he saw the spirit get into him and alter his mind his senses

his heart of course because the man

finally took this child to the hospital thinking he had lost

his mind and how did the doctors understand that the cause of the delusional behavior was not pathological

when three other

children from other families with the same symptoms came and then they asked the doctors

, children, what are you predicting all of them had seen Eurovision and all of them were from families that had no spirit or supplies, they did not

receive communion, they did not confess what the parents

did, do you understand that because man as we have entered and in the past

is so made by God it has three elements one is in

our body is made of matter second this matter is not alone

it has the energy it is the second element and

the third is the information that he put inside every

human being so god himself

admits this and the modern

quantum the three the triple that is the construction of man I repeat matter

energy and information so when the

the energy that our soul constantly as the most sensitive part of the human

that enters us is demonic if what I told you

before happens is very minute to be pleased with what you see

to be pleased with what it means to accept it consents to

consent you accept this demonic or sinful thing you see and

you look for it again and again and again when the man has now happened what

my mother told me the speech leaned so the mind of

these little children, the poor ones who don't have grandmothers,

grandfathers, pray, go to church, parents, but

others, you realize how exposed they are to demonic

energy, so they can be demonized, the question is prayer

, of course, and here there is healing

with the fathers who minister to Saint Cyprian in media daily are

recipients of such people who for various

reasons have an increased energy of temptation and because it was given to him by Saint

Cyprian and other saints such as Saint Gerasimos in

Kefalonia now Saint James in Evia the old woman or

galact, you know what the devils call her, galact

hot baby hot, she burned us like that, so a friend told me recently

there that there was a great philologist, a child who was made by his girlfriend when he

magically broke up with her and turned all over Attica and didn't find a priest to laugh it off and

heal it, that is, a doctor, this means just as we have physical doctors, we also have spiritual doctors and

some told him to go and worship the old woman Galact

and there as well as in her little house which he found closed but from the outside

side effects and they crucified him with oil from the candlestick he felt much

better so I mean this can

happen to anyone god has to grant it but now the

prayer for the salvation of the protagonists enslaved to the

antichrist may have some meaning or is it in vain my dear Elizabeth

recently because of a scandal, I told one of our priests to

read exorcisms on the

virus scandal I said it in the morning the priest did it at noon

and in the afternoon I happened to talk to this man of God and he told me to be happy and tell him Papa to

stop I asked him why is he telling me this was your thought

those who have demonic energy in them didn't ask you for it and the

temptation since they don't ask for it themselves will go to hit the papa

and cause him damage and the papa until now he has a health problem

only with an exorcism he did and with the blessing of

his bishop so all this needs attention neither you read

the wishes of exorcists yourself nor should you go to any priest

or lay people who some say go to so and so and they are seers and

he has enlightenment and pays attention to these things, and the priest who reads

wishes must have the blessing and the wish of his bishop and let

his bishop be the most sinful bishop on earth the high priest's wish covers the priest so therefore

I am not in my Elizabeth for everyone and for

everything the protagonists themselves must ask after they first come to

repentance it is very important that the man repents and then is made to

repent for his passions for his mistakes to confess and if he feels any energy of temptation in

his body in the his soul should then go to a priest as I described him

before yes let's go to another question because we

also mentioned before was the old woman galact who fell asleep on the 21st yes I was wrong before

I thought I went to the galact on the 19th I told you the 19th well and I

have problems with dates yes yes while I can remember historical

dates when they are fresh dates

for my personal life or of people I love I forget them now if it's the beginning

of dementia I don't know bro so I'll go to the third question

from the questions who have come Christ has risen your wish Your Holiness if in many of your speeches, I have heard

you refer to people of God I would like to know does it has two parts question

is the first question first page sorry the third question a if here

and it has two parts yes the first one says, I repeat it in many of your speeches,

I have heard you refer to men of God, I would like to know who is a

man of God and how someone can achieve it,

the second part says ourselves and each other and all our lives, Christ,

God, I'm sorry, how can I do it? I feel that the key to

happiness is the key to happiness, but I'm having a lot of trouble approaching it. I would like your answer if you think that thematically they belong to

a lighter. Thank you very much. So here's a word, dear

John. makes you responsible for the next lighters

says if you judge that

thematically I think the next lighters are at least from September and then should

be thematic to collect homogeneous questions

and in this way, it becomes as if these magics are only for the

magics another time for the carnal another time for

the

sociopolitical

Man of god I said before he is the graceful man who has assimilated the energy the power the grace of the triune god he

is the man of god I repeat the graceful

Man so allow me

to read something that gives not only an answer to

him and to the another who says these and each other and all of our lives

Christ the God we surrender this is from the divine liturgy of request that

the deacon or priest usually makes to reach both for yourself and for

others to place your hopes in

Christ then this means trust, trust to come

To Christ requires faith and a lot of faith in fact

it seems that we can confess our faith orthodoxly but because

we have not understood the relationship of soul and body with the grace of god and the

energy of god then as soon as when the difficulty comes, either ours or some of

our people's, we lose it

no matter how many speeches we've heard how many sermons we've heard and how many

books we've

read, so of course, I won't put so much into it, thank you for being very

important. Saint Theophanes imprisoned a Russian

saint and it is how grace works the energy of god in our life matters

with all that we said before about phobias depressions for depression panic demonism for the

the anxiety we have for the modern disorder of the world we have all this

because we have no sense of grace

if we had a sense of grace here in the heart our prayer would be sweeter

and our patience would be greater than

sorrows and our love for our neighbor would be more intense and as soon as we made

a mistake in the relationship with the neighbor immediately the heart would tell you he hurt

Penelope forgave me with her sweet net

Do you understand what I mean the cute man has to tell you in modern

language he has a GPS in him GPS how is it translated now

you say it in Greece John the GPS e navigator navigator so a

guide the information the information yes so let's listen to what Saint

Theophanes says he is talking to a girl from what I understand this girl

is writing a letter the saint probably to a girl spiritual his child

who for a certain moment in her life was very religious and

spiritual and went and lived a worldly life but instead of being sweet and happy

from the worldly life, she became incomplete and writes him a letter and

tells him how now to find my old spiritual life again I'm glad

I had and you listen to what she writes what she says applies to all

of us and first of all, for me remember I believe that the Christian is not an ordinary

person since he is shaped as much by nature as by grace nature is

the condition that everyone has psycho-somatic, grace is the power

of God, how much we let it enter us, I must clarify, however, that

not all Christians are saved, that is,

only those who enter into the eternal kingdom of God are those to whom grace rents by

watering them, completely transforming them, I would say

whole of their nature watch what the lord says he says the kingdom of heaven

is like leaven which a woman took and mixed with a shahin

of flour, until all the flour was leavened the dough does not rise immediately

as soon as it is mixed leaven rises in its time after

first, the leaven penetrates and

is spread thus it is lightly fragrant

delicious the same happens with grace when it unites with our nature in holy

baptism it does not permeate it immediately it spreads slowly and when grace

is spread everywhere when the whole of our nature graces us then everything that we do takes on

a different character than our actions only that they are the same as others similar to any person they acquire

a special aroma a special taste a

special sound god accepts only those actions that are

extremely pleasing to him I will make another simile to explain how grace

when it is given scope to act after permeating our entire nature

becomes outwardly visible to all who are capable of seeing it grace

so it resembles the fire that penetrates the iron, it is not only inside the

iron but also on the outside its fiery power is seen by everyone,

it happens like this and with grace when it enters our nature it is

perceived by everyone who comes in contact with a God grace the man,

they feel that he has an unusual power that manifests itself

in various ways when he begins to talk about anything spiritual that shines like the noonday sun and his words go

directly to the soul of the listener, shaping in him with authority

corresponding feelings and moods, but also when he has not yet he speaks emits a

the heat that affects everything around him and a strange power that

acts on souls and inspires them with eagerness and spiritual

struggle we receive the grace of god in our infancy with holy baptism

and holy anointing the fragrance from that time the grace

it begins to act within us with the prospect and hope that after our

coming of age and time we will take self-determination

for our salvation, the question is mine what is the age it says about adulthood here what is the age that

man perceives that I have now attained what I had to take from my environment

from my parents my ancestors my heredity from my upbringing from my education

from my god and god gave me the time

I was baptized at the time they were anointed every time I take communion

he gives me his power, his energy is not like that, that's why we constantly want to receive communion while the divine liturgy is always the same,

someone modern said but says these Christians are spectators of the same work constantly with the same words, in the peace of the

Lord, let us pray for peace from above, and yet every time you feel a different

flavor different energy sometimes you feel a lot a little sometimes not at all

and it is not only the divine function and the contact with a human being

that is cute but also with a magician the soul is disturbed when

you approach him with me one who deals with other things with gambling

with the flesh again you don't rest as we say the soul doesn't rest it doesn't want you to

associate with it and if the soul feels it what does it mean I have a living

soul for it to feel that way do you think the soul is not alive it

is an unruly ship see the question here is when one becomes an adult and mature

my mother told you I have said it before the holy speech that my mother used to tell her

when does the mind of creatures descend

she told women if they cut off hours at

40 men tell me they must pass 50 especially she tells me

Currently, if they start after 50 everything is very good

yesterday a 35-year-old man came and saw me I asked him how old are you 35 do you still have

I tell him 17 years what do I have he says 17 years I

tell him what peril today's parents taught you

today's schools televisions, radios, mobiles, tet, children

remain immature children, i.e. tasteless of divine grace, not at 20, not

at 30, not at 40, at 50, unless a person gets

something, he can get it at 20, a

car accident, an illness a failure in

our relationships nowadays the children who most have premarital

relationships have multiple failures love

and sex and they don't

mature and they think that by making a new relationship I will renew it

says my self-confidence it's my mm and here is the last fallacy hands of the

first one and you go to the spiritual of the modern ones because we have many modern spiritual gods now,

let them be spiritual, he is not even a confessor

and

he says it's okay my child to try and try again sure sure

moment to come to a maturity in us that we understand what is the meaning

of life and what is the meaning of death and both have

meaning and to seize the opportunity that comes with either that disease or either or

or or and to

start

our self-establishment says Saint Theophanes the imprisoned, the struggle needs a consequence,

it needs a program, Christ said to the

old lady from the bread she is brilliant the children tell her I want 10 minutes a

day for them to devote 10 to me 10 minutes to listen to what kind of God we have

a philanthropist the old lady told him yes the old lady half an hour at least

and you tell them my child read the greetings read some more before a

seat from the psalter to smell the aroma in the atmosphere of repentance and

he also mentioned a few names come out of yourself

and he tells you how long

it takes when he tells me how he is taking it I also tell him to leave your tsar

like that while while we can eat two robes on the mobile of course especially you and

Mario goes for the standard like this so let me continue because you see

Saint Theophanes is interesting and inspiring when the parents a here we

now get into the essentials when the parents are devout and bring up their children, as the apostle says,

giving them education and advice inspired by faith in the Lord,

then divine grace gives birth to peace in children's souls, so children

become kind, humble, obedient, well-intentioned, and fortunate, examples can be seen

everywhere, I would say that you too listen to how the

Russian girl's saint is talking to her now 200 years ago think what he would say

now I would say that you too are such a child if I were not afraid that you would

take it upon yourself even though none of your gifts are due to your own

efforts you understand my John, come to

Macedonia to see me and let me tell you, you have five gifts, but they are not yours,

two are your father's, one is your mother's, and the other two will be given to you by

God and you are 40 years old

, they are in your soul many good elements but you have received them from others,

they are gifts either from God or from people, specifically your parents

who bequeathed you or gave you through upbringing, now there is a

task in front of you to love all these good elements, to close them in your heart

and then increase and multiply them all the saints that

I have met or that I have read say this they do not tell you to become something that you do not

have inside you, it tells you what you have inside you as

a talent and a talent as a gift and multiply it like this but

you have a gift to give money to do charity multiply it

he told me to be a ship owner one day he said to me my lord in heaven I will buy it I said how will you sir support me since I have no other gifts he told me

I only know how to make money he constantly tells me I am looking to find poor orphans children poor students churches that

are in need and I constantly give money so he taught me he says the old

Porphyrios was the spiritual pad of Porphyrios the bass Hadjiioannou eternity

his memory and in this way we

websites in one gift elegant he was the one who had

alms, of course, I saw other

gifts in Mr. Vasus, for example, faith, my child, to return from Japan to New York every night, but

it is in the interest that it was to see the yen, the yen is the currency of the

or the New York Stock Exchange in dollars or to go and see the sterling

so to see how he would make his investments every night after 12 o'clock

he threw himself there on his little bed on his knees and put his feet and hands

on the bed and what do you think he was reading but every night all the time I tell him the big

meal, my lord, the big meal is from Monday to Sunday until the Holy

Week, he tells me, no, but the small meal he tells me until you say it's

over so that I can be satisfied I want the big one listen to what it means to be satisfied I want

the big one he also measured the depth of his soul and how much

capacity he has and he wanted the big reward and

then I asked him what he was doing then he told me I had a deuterium

my mother taught me they do it and I remember the names of all the priests, he says of the elders, he says of the deacons, the

monks, the monastics, my parents, my horn, and I remember

these names, the bass player told you the only gift I have is to give money, so you understand from him

what I mean is let's use each one's talent one may not have

money to give alms but have the gift and patience

to sit next to an old man in an orphanage in an abandoned house and go and keep him

company while the children don't go to the old man, you go Jacob,

you understood and see how quickly you will gain grace and you would say,

my child, but how did I get his temperance how did I get this meekness how do I have a mental prayer in my heart why

did you visit the hall of God the forsaken

so let's not go to these things because I will be able to preach

it is true now the saint is speaking to the girl that you are treading firmly

foundations and that you are on the right path, but nothing of what you have

is the fruit of your free will and the result of your responsible decisions,

and if you do not start now to make your efforts to

stabilize the good elements of your soul, you will lose

everything with the first unpleasant circumstances yes they will leave you left behind

only a sweet or bitter memory

you hear if, until a certain age, we do not use the talents of our parents

our god our teachers these good things will

leave us and we will become a theater of angels and

people remember what they felt when he sank into the misery of worldly life and how

did you suffer then how sorrow flooded your heart that

you have good in you you got it from the grace of god and your family why

then your experiences of worldly life saddened you because you left yourself this is a great

detail because you allowed yourself to feel some sympathy for life

the worldly mole that you did not confess it is self-evident from the sorrow that

afflicted you later if there was no sympathy there would be no

suffering pleasure brings pain this is what the

saint, I wrote to you that if some dire necessity should throw you into the same plight again, do not

let your heart cling to anything you see or hear there, if

your heart does not cling to anything you will never experience

sorrow again, I don't know if you are now in it again even if you're in trouble, I don't know

if you follow my advice, do what you think is the worst thing the

the spiritual person tells you, to do what you think, you're on your own, wherever you are, it's

becoming an adult, it's very important to watch when because we

're all involved in worldly things and because of technology, watch

our heart that sticks listen to this one that clings that pleases that pleasures that sweeten i has

another that 20 beautiful women pass by and he doesn't turn to

see them and as soon as you talk to him about money yes friend do you have something to

say to me so we must all look at our

inclination and desire are satisfied, our inclination and desire

is the depth of the heart of every human being, the appetite for

strength according to Saint John of Damascus which we all

have, from my side, the saint continues, I must tell you honestly and

you have three options listen to how modern it is how much

it concerns us either to become a spiritual man or a god

of grace or to become a worldly man empty matter folios and passionate like

almost everyone else either or finally becomes a

the meteoric man between spiritual and secular life meteoric means that it goes and comes in the air where the wind takes it

and hence

a meteorite I hope and wish you become a spiritual person and you will become if you want to pay attention to this and you will become if

you want to we all have within us the power of will to activate it but

come your power god it's not like the old Cypriots used to say

that's how an empty and dull man a worldly and unbelieving man I don't think

you'll ever be because I know you well enough and you're listening now to what

concerns us who go to church but I can't rule out

the possibility of the third case,

it is possible that you will not become completely spiritual, nor completely worldly,

neither Christian nor unbeliever, this can happen if you do not

guard your heart from the attraction of worldly life, I will read this again,

this can happen if you don't guard your heart from the attraction of

worldly life notice I'm talking about attraction and not

participation in the worldly life you may not live a worldly life

but you are drawn so to speak in our language this is drawn to you means that

a part of your heart is

captive and it is captive and in this way, I do not give it to my Christ as it says not with one heart, Christ wants our whole heart, not

one party, pay attention, I'm talking about attraction and not a participation in worldly life, because participation,

as you say, is sometimes inevitable, if you don't guard your heart from this attraction, it will be born

in you a sympathy for secularism a sympathy which will not

cut you off completely from your Christian principles but will inspire you with a certain

coldness towards them you will retain your principles or

rather some of them but only out of habit you will be

a Christian out of habit Christmas Easter I commune I go and confess

to receive communion so out of habit

I have not given him my heart of Christ because other things

pull it so basically, you will not be in the worldly space or the

truly spiritual you will be neither a worldly nor a spiritual

the person what will the result be whoever it was also for the angel of the

Church of the People's Justice who was condemned by the master in the apocalypse listened to what the master said to the bishop of the

people's justice in Asia Minor a prophecy that happened in 1922

I know your works well you are neither cold nor

hot I wish you were either cold or hot because you are neither cold

nor hot but lukewarm that's why I will dry you out of my mouth

one must be warm towards God says Saint

Theophanes and towards all divine things but cold towards worldliness and

sin if you are not neither cold towards the worldly nor warm towards the

divine but lukewarm and cold towards everything god will

disapprove and reject you so what should you do to

choose with your heart the holy and godly spiritual life now

that you are coming of age this is Russian irony, you will choose it

, may the Lord bless you and

enlighten you, so I

think you want to ask another question.

say something worldly something

worldly like that yes happy listera I don't know how secular the one

I have chosen but because a song after you sing Oh a song s a psalm with soul in the celebration lift my soul let's say at the end I think because

this question is from a gentleman who is in America 58

years old and it's about the psalm of our love and because we've also done

thematic but it's a question that a lot of people have a question I'll give it

please your respect to Ohio United States

do you refer to books that you should we're reading I'll wait yes you

choose and I recently started reading the

psalter I've lived in America for 24 years but I went to school in Greece and I'm

an old baker 58 years old Listen I'm 58 years old

I understand Katharevusa but the Psalter is almost archaic and

I'm having trouble understanding it and reading it feels like an evening

out but I don't want to find something translated into modern Greek because these

texts lose their value if they are translated into a modern

language recommends that I continue reading it despite the difficulty I will get familiar

at some point and catch the meaning or read something else that is in

modern Greek, thank you, what a nice person, after all, did

you notice that all the questions that come from America are substances,

my child, yes, and the others who came made a great impression on me, we talked about

America, but I am not very

friend of America but I am impressed that the Orthodox who are in

Greece has a thirst for the essence of spiritual life, we who are in

Cyprus in Greece and Germany, the expatriates and Australia are always

watching when what the patriarch will say and what he will what will the archbishop say, what

will Mitsotakis say, what will Kaselakis say, what will be voted on, and let's start judging and our judgments may

they are also correct but look at this man now

m this man you know what he is saying to me what Saint

Theophanes said before that he will not that he has begun to cleanse his heart

through prayer with the psalter

so my dear neither name nor name let John of the tea not

write a name at all m Ohio Ohio lady pronounce it what a beautiful

Ohio so my dear

keep reading the Psalter and I am sure that especially for you

even if you don't understand many things now there will come a moment when a not a long period but be

consistent every day and preferably every night from noon to

34 find an interval to wake up and

read as many Psalms as you can but do not exaggerate agree with

yourself I will read a psalm every day after every two sittings he should remember names

and at the end always the psalter so that Satan does not bother us because he

is too bothered by the reading of the Psalter we must end with something

Theotokos either the Virgin Mary says it 33 times 50 times 100 times or

the salutations of the Virgin Mary or the request that you

endure so what I tell you does not last more than 30 to 40

minutes so see if these are done either

every day or every night with consistency even when you are very

tired let's do half of what we said but let's do something let's do something so that

there is a minimum and a maximum in our prayer

and a daily consequence so that you will see through this daily

by reading the prayer of the psalter and of our saint and of

I remember and commended your mind will open and you will begin not to understand the psalter, to feel it,

but also the function, the brain understands a few things, the heart feels the most,

because grace comes and first opens the mind and if

it wants the brain to be informed of something, something of the deeper

meaning of the rites

then we will have to do another

method to start reading in elementary school too, until recently I said

no directly to the original until the nuns here, our good ones in Orunda,

suggested to me this psalter of the

professor Athanasios Delikota Poulos of Makaritis this one

here his translation is wonderful his rendering is not a translation

it is a rendering in modern Greek without many interpretations of poetic

and

with it, I recommend you also enter the deeper meaning of the Psalter this

my despot I am interrupting for say of course interrupt me it is used as a prayer or let's say of doing it as a study in one's free time except

at the time of the second the second yes the prayer is always with the

authentic text whether it is the New Testament or Old Testament Psalter

sequences the authentic text of the old however any

unavoidable moment the the brain will protest, it will say sorry, you feed

your mind, you feed your heart and you give it food and grace and energy, don't

I have the right for the brain to understand what the enlightened ones used to say,

I think, so I exist, if you want, Mr. Brain to

understand, there is also a translation, I tell you that the best one I found is that

of the delicate chicken, unfortunately, the bazaar does not circulate much,

let me read you a little the translation of the most famous psalm of

Penko, have mercy on me.

he writes, I will only read the translation, have mercy on me, have mercy on me, my God, according to

your great mercy and according to the infinite esplanade,

completely blot out the iniquity of me from the scourge of my iniquity

and cleanse me from my sin, I ask you to have mercy on me because I recognize and

confess my iniquity and this sin of mine never leaves my mind I always have it before me I ask you to have mercy on me because

I have sinned against you alone and I have committed wickedness before you and I have transgressed your law

I confess my guilt and I am worthy of punishment so that you may be shown again that

you were always right when you punished me and that you may emerge victorious in the just judgment

you when those who do not know you criticize you, sir, because I was conceived

by sinful parents and my mother conceived me and gave birth to me in

sins, that is, I am a suffering creature who from his mother's womb

began to burp towards evil, that is, I live as all and my parents under

the state of original sin and thus I am drawn into

transgressions of your law have mercy on me lord because I dared to speak about the power

of sin because I know well that you loved the truth uprightness and

sincerity of mind and heart c this also revealed to me the unknown and

incomprehensible things of your divine wisdom to keep me away from congenital

evil you will sprinkle me with hyssop an aromatic plant that is

hyssop with purgative power with your mercy and your grace that is to say and you will

purify of my sin you will wash me and I will become whiter than

snow and so you will make me feel great joy and gladness and you will shake

with joy my bones that are now broken in pain turn

your face away from my sins and obliterate erase completely

all my iniquities it is not a nice

translation full of feeling feeling atmosphere but I repeat what

John said when we pray we will insist on the texts written by the saints and every word

has energy has grace has power so these because they are 8:20 so let's

allow having a question either in the previously checked or your one and to

continue the question is we feel the need for you to explain to us and analyze more the concept of secularism and secular life and the

examples given by Saint Theophanes theophanes imprisoned three of the

three paths that a man can follow I think Saint Theophanes himself at some point gives the

answer he says it is inevitable that you live in the

world you must also behave

worldly at times but

he says this that matters to the

conscious Christian who has chosen to cleanse his heart and

repent of his mistakes and his passions and try to

attract the energy the power the grace of the triune

god you will live with worldliness some in some always limits

but you will never give your heart the attraction exerted by worldliness and you will not accept it inside you if for

a moment you are deceived,

repent and repentance will bring you back to the frequencies of the holy

spirit things are so simple worldliness what is worldliness is where

your heart prefers the things of the world the pleasures the

riches the perishable things i.e. the food the

entertainments the entertainments all these things to worldliness the adventure of money or to give all you are to the

sake of your children from something that has a lot to do with the Cypriot

character if Cypriot parents

have an opportunity for what their children will become in this crazy

society they transform it, especially after the 12th year of the children

during the holy porphyry by seeing the children you, as much upbringing as you want,

piety services until you enter puberty, then Saint Paisius

Zipper said that the knees should speak, that you should open

a line with your triune God, with your angel, with a saint that you will have

as a patron for your child, another saint that will be a patron for your basilica

, these are of the porphyry they told you recently

if you work like this then you escape from worldliness which

is not always worldliness what is to eat what is to drink what

is to dress and our money the pleasures our pleasures are

mainly these but I say that we can be fooled and prove an

attachment to our beloved persons or one who is very

patriotic anxiety about the future of Cyprus about what will happen to the

Turks who are next to us what will happen to our Greece which

is also in danger, you know how easy patriotism is, which is a genuine orthodox feeling to do

nationalism we have experienced it many times what is it is secularism

the other may not care much about the country the earthly country he is

religious and wants to make them all religious his wife his children his

So his village his island the nation of the whole world, he

judges them all, he condemns them all, patriarchs, priests, despots, the day before yesterday, someone came to me and

said, "Oh, he's here now, forgive me, I've forgiven him, and I have nothing to do with him." He brought me a book with a French

Orthodox saint, Maria Stefanova, what's her name France, are you in Paris, someone

there told this child of mine that you know so-and-so and so-and-so and so-and-so

page this saint says something that is not orthodox don't you go and ask for more

and he just gave it to me and so-and-so told me here on the page he

probably says some things that are unorthodox because they made

her

his

saint.

let's start judging the Virgin Mary because you then gave birth to Christ and waited 100 years

after that, you understood that worldliness

is not exhausted only in eating tomorrow because it is

mortal it can also penetrate concepts and values

​​which are values ​​but when you absolve them

then they lose their meaning and steal the

mind he said before about the prophecies they steal your mind my mind

from the first first that I must have purity and who are the frequencies

with the divine grace and if the line I feel the divine liturgy I feel the

prayer I feel the confession in the spiritual, what is the quality of

my repentance, my love for my neighbor, what is the commandment, the second commandment, love

your neighbor, did they widen your secularism, I am really worried

about the way many ultra-patriots and many religions behave

, that is, it is not enough for us secularism of hierarchs, priests, deacons,

nuns, secular nuns, now we are entering, and the religious people who are supposed to have a

sensitivity to have huge anxiety about whether we should hold ordinations

or whether we will take Constantinople this year or next year, so

things like that and these for me are secularism I may be wrong I'm talking about

myself so

yes the question is whether it is due to some older

hangers it needs more clarification on how the mind descends to the heart

this is the or come on my horn now

come this question you have to ask me next time start as

as soon as we start tell me sorry I'm the laughing kid of the previous

lighter and I ask you this question an office asked me when I go to Paphos every quarter we agreed with the brother there that the

random our things there are themed that's why i and o have an effect and

it is more beautiful because the mind is also limited mine to a specific

subject one subject was the mind as one of the five powers of the

soul and I said I said that the whole case is the mind which is the emperor

of the five of the powers of the soul, the highest of the materials,

if we put it this way, that the man has from the god in

him to descend into the heart, a young man stood up and said to me,

please, he said to me, but you said it 30 times, you are the thing, how does the mind descend to the dear, you know the current generation, yours,

how old are you

, 41, so you belong to the generation that is under

50, you are in the internet generation, that is, I am in the

television generation, and my father, Nicolas, was in that generation, he was born in

1907 my father think look at his generation

think in 100 years how many

children do you have now say the child you will have the day after tomorrow will be in which

generation of the artificial intelligence of the human-robot half-robot human

sit down now and tell your son and daughter you to download your mind into

your heart so that you don't become an instrument of the new order

of things so that it doesn't submit to Elon Musk who is playing us

an anti-geotaxis while he is worse than the ruffians and the

hey, I'll tell you one thing, it's a long

the distance that the mind has from the heart according to the holy milk, the greatest

distance it says that in my life, the saint of God told me it's from here to

here, not the brain, the mind, the brain begins to descend to the heart let's just say for the beginning

with the practical, not the theoretical when he starts to follow

the dominant passion you have says your name is Dimitris what is the dominant

passion of me the neophyte is the anger of John in the

food the food

does not eat it Christina in fact yes his mother Christina of course

we finished it so you may be neither the

food nor the anger be a traditionalist and the other where the bald one sits

be jealous so the other may be in one of the passions of the flesh whether female or

gay or either each of us should find

who is his dominant passion it helps a lot to also follow

our inheritance from our parents our grandparents

then say we told you what we found that you have that you are stingy

stingy stingy you will see how my stinginess manifested itself today that morning until evening in the

Takaki my wife said to me look give this poor man some

money and I said to him let's go again

m so where did I think that my child passed

At Easter, why don't we go see our grandmother who is at the circus, and get her

an Easter present so that she can be happy and don't drink, no, because

you are bored because you are thinking about the present that you will

buy with all this when the man of God starts and then I watched them

repent, he is, it is not just watching them as a

psychiatrist, a psychologist, a psychoanalyst says, I watch them to

apprehend them and repent, says Saint Isaac the

Syrian, he may be with your master at work that you ask him to give you

he raises your salary and it doesn't make you feel like you have a flow of money, why

shouldn't I get more money, it starts as a second passion, an evil accusation of the foreman, and the deeper reason is the

money that doesn't give me an increase, then you start praying for

your foreman lord jesus christ forgive my master Andrea forgive me too

when a person starts to work like this the heart starts to groan on its own it starts

to sometimes rejoice and sometimes to react because it is easy to tease a

demon that resides in the heart I mean you are a money-loving demon

, he immediately reacts and will start throwing

calculations at you with fringes of form now and regretting every money-loving

move your heart has, you will start to question what

you heard he will start throwing other ideas at you, yes but I have other things, you understand,

I am moderate, while others do so much immorality, I don't deserve to be a shogun, I am not a shogun, I am a housekeeper who

I am, so man monitors his calculations, his desires based

on passion, the dominant one, but when my dear follows the first

dominant passion and as soon as you pass the first one find the second one and we

only have one passion we have all the passions but only some because of heredity

usually or because they are not here we didn't

care because of lack of catechism we can't cure them isn't it

so we didn't deal with the spiritual pathology after all, but

we only dealt with it if my back hurts, my leg hurts, you understood the

physical one and our soul is atrophied, so you will find out, then you will see the second passion, you will see the third,

the fourth, so this story that you I say how long until you die until you die you will see about

him and when you read the old man what do all the saints

say he demanded by my God to put a principle of repentance but all the saints were saints

but inside they saw you as liars not even the penal code anything

they saw some passion moving, for

him this work is the most interesting because he has a lot of

grace, he is happy, Christ sends the holy spirit, because may Christ leave you

alone to become a psychoanalyst

The Holy Spirit is enlightening it will help you holy Spirit to see

things in you that you have never seen yet it will enlighten you and which

grandparents gave you the moneylender and you will not blame them like

psychoanalysts do you pray for them to forgive them oh

god oh my heart this is what I told you

is the beginning so far the

chief someone else the question is the end of June correct me brother because I don't

remember the dates it will be for nine days the parade

we also have in Cyprus on Saturday if I'm not wrong, tomorrow, Saturday, tomorrow,

the 1st of June, I think it's a friend, and he says, we who are in Thessaloniki

and will live this thing, what do you advise us, how to handle it, and then we and our families, our children who spend time in these already

messages from the schools or the television from the mobile phones definitely for the children to catch them go from Thessaloniki go to Xanthi go to

Kozani goes to a village go to Olympus so that the children don't see this

sad spectacle will be imprinted in them, let alone the energy that is emitted when all these

carnal passions meet is huge if for

a Eurovision I said what I said before think about meeting all

these people who carry these demons inside them are demons and for 9 days and 9 days

, look, the bishops where they are around Thessaloniki should

suggest to the priests to hold vigils without blaming,

without making vigils every night in one parish to another parish,

you understood that there is spiritual resistance, which means

vigils with the lay people the

lay people have the psalter, you know how many mistakes will be made in

this parade when some people two or three, as our Christ says,

read the Psalter with their hearts and the chariots will be broken,

they will be overturned, and all kinds of funny things will happen, but the

angel will be hiding behind you and so for

so for the feeling the atmosphere probably very well it would be at the time when

the big parades will be held the bells are ringing passion

like this or make supplications with names

of people who have this passion supplications not

exorcisms and say that you have a child in your family who has this passion, his name is George, and for all the Georges,

my Christ, these are St. Paisius's, they are not mine,

so I believe in this kind of thing, let's not make a counter parade as someone would say

and expose them let's understand that it's the

season, I don't want to say the word because the archbishop told me

not to say it, I've said it the other times, so what the fortieth raven said, let whoever remembers it, otherwise you'll find it

in our calendar, it's the season then but it is an era that will

end quickly listen it will end very

quickly many saints told me this and the war that would culminate that

we started at the beginning to say will help very very very very even

these poor people who have the passion enough to come to

repentance to crash to say hey what have we done ok we have a passion to

do it pride let's do it pride

fight to reduce it if we can't uproot it so but this time because everyone praises it the new order of things

promotes these, the poor cannot be crushed, although some already

come and see us and ask for help, but these are isolated cases, after the war, and with it, they will understand themselves that

the new order of things is using them, then they will come to a big

crash and many will regret it because

all these

characters have a special sensitivity and many times the pathology they have is not so much the responsibility of only them but the parents and grandparents

that's what I'm saying or I think I answered you as much as

possible yes who in your opinion, was more against what

you said, anti-heretical or against the same, is it so the saint neophyte the imprisoned or the

saint or saint mark kind all the saints were all the saints all the saints

I say it three times he was and must be anti-heretical now the West for the last 1000 years

has been producing heresies unceasingly and what John said before about the

parades is a form of heresy that even wants to be

legally and morally protected and passed on as a pedagogy to our children,

so it is not a question of it is anti-Western, I think the term rather does not suit

a saint, the saint when he sees that the truth of Christ is diminishing becomes

aggressive, he once told me holy father I went and told him the old man I told him it seems we have a passion in common he told me he likes to see you

and my passions he tells me you're done with yours you got mine I'm

serious now you're angry yes I am he says how did you do it

I told him for so many years you don't hurt people I hurt

people with my anger and I sometimes hurt but I regret it

quickly and my anger tells me

I learned from grace so he said it should

only be for two occasions when it is for the faith

because when there is heresy and the heretic insists I become aggressive she tells me and

when there is immorality then she tells me you have to

use your anger no one else understands how she tells me the

heretics and the immoral and the anger she gave you

tells me your generation because my mother's generation I inherited this

anger I researched so Christ wants one day when you grow up to use it against the heretics

and the flowers the years have passed my dear I just turned 50 around 54-55 I got to know Agia

Galaktion from close quarters and

she said to me, "Mom, the little child is leaving and doing this to me, yes, well

, and she told me, I'm telling the old woman what to say to the world now that I'm over 50

and I have to start speaking as I promised in old Porphyrio and to

old Jacob and he tells me with a naturalness and simplicity the

dirty things what I tell her the dirty things to say

she tells me what most people do now she tells me the abnormal things and she began

to describe the abnormal things to me with ease and with a glossary that

even an ordinary woman would be ashamed,

I tell you, but this one is indeed the woman of God, and now she tells me to go out and tell about the abnormal things they do inside and

outside of marriage, not only homosexuals and lesbians tell me, but both inside

and outside so out of wedlock and one of them is ashamed, the other tells me he's afraid because he has a file, the other

tells me he wants to be an archbishop, that's why they have to be nice to each other, no one talks, you talk, he tells me where you are, he tells me he's

aggressive, and then I remembered the guy who your anger once told me to

keep it and use it either for immorality or heresies

so both saints had this spirit that we are describing as Saint

Neophytos and Saint E Markus Markus are the kind ones but

you see also Galactides I say with Galakt who

told me to say dirty things, not a month passed and someone from America came, and then

the saint of America Ephraim Arizona lived and what the one who came told me

was the blessed reverence of the lady Athena the blacksmith

spiritual go to Saint Porphyry and go to Arizona to see then

Saint Elder Ephraim of Arizona and what he said to her, do you think the same things that I was told by

Emen Galaktion Mata and Greece said to her

at this moment and all of Europe is rolling like widows in

this shit of the sin of the abnormality she says sin will give birth to the third

world war so that it does not spread to your children and Saint Galact said something very important

we have it written in the book so that it does not spoil she says the human

species we are in so much danger from these sins

so you see what a saint neophyte is what a saint Cosmas the Aetolos what the other Mark the

kind the saint Elder Ephraim of Arizona the galactic they all say the same

child they all say the same we just don't follow them we prefer to talk about

no miracle we don't follow the teaching them e is not anti-western and basically in America p was where it was

in the West, it was not like that in the other of America that I recommend you to

read three books by Seraphim RP Father Seraphim

Rp he, before he was baptized, was for a while

homosexual until he met St. John Maximovich the Great, a Russian saint,

he understood what orthodoxy meant, he was baptized,

all

previous sinfulness was erased, he was already ordained, and

they wrote three excellent books.

let's let Penelope

do their epilogue it came from a long time ago but you were in

Syria now now these let's say a few words now let's

finish they wanted him to say something about religious matters in place of the woman

to whom the scribe is addressed by the saint we read the text yes which

when you started you said he had the grace he got tired so

you said yes I ask the question with you and vice versa do nothing else for what I think

he understands I want to ask you from your slang as they say why did the

lord become your grace of god can a man bear it

he has done this can a man who is tangible leave the

tragedy of z body-mind we understand if he can hold it

may I repeat the question can a

man with his weaknesses to put it this way more popularly and correct me with the human existence to endure the grace of God to contain it

even not just to endure it that

's what you say if it endures the grace listen to my Penelope God gives everyone

as much grace as the container of his soul, a ring, you have a

ring, thanks for you, for God, it's great that I have to fill

a jar so that you can drink too if I don't fill the jar and fill a

glass, I might as well go to hell, that's why it gives so much power to this man

it means as much energy means grace as much as it can withstand as much

capacity as each soul has not every soul has

its capacity everyone could fit this other given the master himself said it

from here and beyond and beyond I understand that you are going further in front of you

is the man in the struggle that makes the spiritual there comes a time yes when he gets tired

because the spiritual life has a tension when it is spiritual in the first place

it is a sack with the spirits the devils the

demons first you meet your passions and then you meet when you succeed somehow

with the power of god with your pathology you meet those who are behind

the passions and they are the demons so this requires a lot of strength and

patience to do this battle but god gives the strength and

many times to humiliate the fighter God withdraws a little,

here is what God the Father did with his son when Christ said

that terrible thing, il lama savachtani, my God, my God,

he was abandoning me and we are not worthy of us, who are full of selfishness, for

the moment to take a step back so the best thing is to go to the

spiritual one to have a spiritual one who has experience experience not just

books today is one of our problems

experience so the spiritual one will be enlightened by

God and let him have a little experience if it is ours the struggle our pain

is great and will give him extraordinary enlightenment the holy spirit tells us

things that will help us provide an example of the

Saint Sofron of Sex is in his monastery in Russia on the sacred mountain

he is doing this struggle he is tired he can't stand it at some point and he goes

to his spiritual one, Saint Silvanus and what does he say to him he says keep

my mind on hell but a big deal I told the child before

to keep your mind on your passion imagine keeping his mind and

say where the infernal is, I am also this means in

hell but he says he can't stand this old man telling him for a long time what to do and

the experienced saint Silvanus turns and what does he say to him says to him when

your mind gets tired let's do a step back and have a tea and have a tea I would tell him

I like you so you understand what Antony the Great said about the spiritual life not

everything should be tense sometimes there should be relaxation It needs a distinction between the thing

is like that but the fact that there is tension and that there is effort and our other God gives

the grace and the energy to

fight, the life is yours to guard it, yes, I hear so-and-so's father has

insight,

the other has the foresight, the other has the healing power, the other has

the prophetic. we find but for prophecies and foresight and foresight we find

it was not my father we were looking for a father it turned out to be a monster so

we are looking for a prophet 20 prophets

and as he once told me and an abbot of the holy mountain my friend

you know tell me here in the monastery how many have obtained from the intense

spiritual life, the clairvoyant, most of the

old men kept it, one tells me, six months, another 6 years, and then lost it,

because the center of their struggle was not the humiliation of Christ, but the

gift, so we do not struggle for prophecies and for proactive and

insightful yes and therapeutic no yes how does someone who

you know well say it tell me he writes sometimes yes

in the news very extraordinary yes spiritual pst yes

spiritual pressure yes no no our meaning is just

humbly I step on the earth and look for humility my Christ now it is

true that in our time we need some people who have the

gift of the great the maximum discernment of spirits to tell you this one is

demonic this one is angelic yes the girl before what a nice question she

asked worldliness she tells you when is when so it is not

for god to enlighten us you have

less responsibility you have responsibility for your two children for your three children for

your grandchildren what can we say what can we say about him pray

for us him, I have to say as the last word Christ He is truly

risen, Christ is truly risen, Christ is truly risen, He is truly risen, glory to this holy

three-day man, we worship him, the three-day resurrection, Christ

is risen from the dead,

death, death, life

, life, giving
