Prophecy for Crete and Greece, Greek–Turkish War — Monk Gennadios

 

Monk Gennadios

A prophecy for Crete and Greece from Monk Gennadios — the Greco-Turkish War. Monk Gennadios, like many ascetics of the Church, was a vessel of the Spirit and a bearer of Christ. Because of this divine grace he prophesied, saw visions and made predictions. On account of humanity’s great falling away from God, he taught that the end of the world is coming, the Second Coming of the Lord. A World War, because the world does not repent. This war will also be the last, because the destruction will be total. A small country will be the cause of the world war. Perhaps that country will be Cyprus. When Noah was besieged, people plunged into the waters. Now they will drown in blood. In Constantinople there will be a great slaughter and the sea will be red with the blood of the massacred people. A three-year-old calf will swim in the blood, as Saint Kosmas says — the prophecy foretells. This implies the great massacre, the bloodshed and destruction that will take place. The sky will fill with airplanes and they will drop fire-bombs on people. The people will be terrorized and will cry out, “My Lady, my Lady” — let them weep, let them weep as much as they want. No one will help them because they have not repented for so long. Then Constantinople will be retaken by the Greeks, but there will be a great slaughter. We Greeks will suffer great destruction because of our sins. Before the war begins, a great cross of Christ will appear in the sky over Constantinople and the Turks will overrun us. They will cross the Evros River and cause every kind of devastation. They will advance as far as six miles away. We will attack them. Others will help us. Perhaps the Russians and the French. Then we will chase the Turks. We will take the city and Asia Minor, which once belonged to Greek lands; the Turks will suffer great destructions and will

be pursued as far as the red apple tree somewhere in Mecca, the capital of Arabia; because of the war one-third of the Turkish population will die. Another third will be driven to the red tree, the apple tree, and the remaining third will be baptized and become Christian. Those who are baptized will come from Christian blood — that is, from Greeks who did not manage to come to Greece after the Asia Minor Catastrophe of 1922 and remained living in Turkey. There are still many crypto-Christians there today, but the time will come when they will reveal themselves. After the above events, great Russia and Africa will clash over who will take Constantinople because of its strategic position and another military conflict will arise between them. It will be dangerous. So that such a military confrontation does not come to pass — neither one nor the other will take it — it will be by God’s will to give it to the Greeks to whom it belongs and the Greek state. It will suffer great destructions, our Greeks will fight among themselves and most likely a civil war will arise. Here in Crete the Turks will come. They say that Crete is their protection; the Turks will disembark on the southern part of Crete, from Preveli Monastery, and from Maridaki from the village of Hondros near the good ports of Heraklion; the Turks will make a landing, and from the places where they come ashore they will carry out a general slaughter and destruction in the province of Marambelos-Lisitheos — there will be great ruin and devastation. The groans and cries of the people will be heard from Vouválovouno of Melápi, Rethymno. At the end of this affair, the Turks will be defeated and destroyed definitively; they will retreat in disorder and even women with small arms will pursue them. Of course there will be a Greek army in Crete, but it will not be clear at which point the Turks will land. At that point, if God wills, a fog will have fallen, solely so that they may disembark undisturbed and punish us for our sins. Crete will be submerged not by bombs but by our sins; nothing will remain of it except a small part as a reminder that this once was Crete. Millions of dollars are being provided by foreigners to remove Greeks from the Orthodox faith and their history, but if they abandon their faith this will mean their destruction. What the Cypriots suffered in 1974 at the hands of the Turks, who occupied half of Cyprus, the same will befall us Greeks if we do not return to God. The Turks are ready. They are sharpening their knives, but the time has not yet come. God does not allow it yet; God is patient — God waits for our repentance.
