Yes, of course. Yes, before the Second Coming, before the Second Coming…
No, they will rise again; they will come alive—those who have not yet died—among the prophets: Enoch and the Prophet Elijah. And since we are mentioning these two, they are written about in the Book of Revelation of Saint John.
So, how will the Christians of that time recognize who the Antichrist is? The true Antichrist?
They will understand because Christ our Lord, our God, will allow them at that time to live again, to be raised, so to speak, in quotation marks.
Because they have not died. That is why I say “in quotation marks” about these two: Enoch and the Prophet Elijah.
They will tell the Christians of that time: “Do not follow him, do not listen to him; he is the Antichrist.”
Think about how much love Christ has for Christians, for believers—even the two prophets of the Old Testament.
He will send them alive to go around all the countries, and it says that there will be such technology that when he kills them—because they too must die—death comes to everyone. Even the perfect God and perfect man had death.
The kings and rulers of the world at that time will celebrate greatly; they will exchange gifts with one another because they will think, “We are rid of them.”
But the Christians will know, it says, and everyone will see. Listen to what Revelation writes: everyone will see their death. They will put them in the square of Jerusalem, it says.
And the bodies of the two — the remains of the two, to correct myself — will be there so that the Christians will be disappointed and saddened.
And everyone will see it.
People one hundred years ago wondered, "How will everyone see it? How will everyone have this ability to see it?”
But now we know very well how we can see events happening anywhere in the world.
Yes, of course, and this is what we believe. It means the Slavic peoples, the Russians and others.
It does not mean me. I am not of Slavic origin. The taking of Constantinople — here it is written incorrectly; it means the liberation of Constantinople.
As the lady said earlier, this will happen too. Saint Paisios emphasized this many times. It is his prophecy as well.
Saint of Limassol. The revival of Orthodoxy.
The revival of Orthodoxy is a subject that in our time has divided those who deal with prophetic writings into two groups: some with good intentions, and some with bad intentions.
The revival of Orthodoxy will happen. What do we mean when we use the term “revival of Orthodoxy”?
When the wars end—the Third World War and other local wars—those of us who survive…
I have an idea that I will survive. I am joking about this.
Because we will have to go through hardships, those of us who survive.
Know this: we will have to go through them with great patience. Everyone’s faith will be tested.
“The one who thinks he stands should be careful not to fall.”
Those who think they are standing should be careful not to fall.
Those of us who survive, because the population of the earth will be greatly reduced by nuclear weapons, various disasters, earthquakes, floods, and everything else, because these are times of nations that we have entered.
Each nation will pay for its sins throughout history.
Then, after Orthodox leaders take over, at least in Constantinople and Russia, there will be a period that will not be very long.
Some say a few decades, during which Orthodoxy will be proclaimed throughout the whole world.
Throughout the whole world.
So that no one will complain and say, "Christ, my Christ, I did not know that You are God, that You were crucified, that You were born, crucified, resurrected, and ascended.”
It will be preached to everyone, and some will believe, and some will not believe.
This is the revival of Orthodoxy.
Not as some interpret it—that the Greeks will dominate.
No, not like that. There should be no nationalism inside prophecies.
Neither will the Russians be exempt; the Russians will also have their own humiliation, just as we have ours now. God takes care of everyone.
And do you know what God’s care is? It is not our glory; it is our humility.
It is the way by which He allows
each of us personally and every nation to become humble.
What we have been living through as Cyprus for fifty years now is not a humiliation for us—to wake up every morning and see Mount Pentadaktylos with the Turkish flag opposite us.
