 So here we say that the Gospel is the same for the laity and for

the monks [music]

Em and communion with

God in Christians

is achieved in the following way In the following ways: Em first-—first

man must believe in God In the true God He must believe, Who

is the true God The true God is the holy

trinity And how do we know that there is a true God because He is revealed to

man has been revealed to man and so we know that

He exists What God reveals God reveals His light

never His essence The light God reveals and we know from the

light that it exists Now we have this light of the sun

Well, from the light of the sun we know that there is a sun So also when God

reveals his light we know that God exists

Now the communion with God—how is it First of all, when God revealed himself in the

Old Testament to the people he revealed he spoke the incarnate Christ

spoke to the prophets of the Old Testament and conveyed to them the

will of the Father the will of God. That is, Christ conveyed it to the

prophets and the prophets conveyed the will of God to the people

This is how God appeared in the Old Testament E Christ spoke to the

prophets and the prophets spoke to the people Then the one who spoke to the

prophets in the Old Testament who was Christ again, the second person the Son

of God he came and became a man through the Virgin Mary He took flesh

The Virgin Mary gave Him flesh and became a man And he is the Christ. That is,

Christ is God in the form of a man And Christ has two natures The divine

nature, which he never abandoned and the human, That is, he also took the

human nature in addition to the divine that he had And thus Christ has in himself

in his person united united united divine and human nature

unconfused and irrevocable That is, there

There cannot be of any confusion between these two

natures And he has because he has two natures he has two wills The divine and the

human And always Christ

submitted his human will to the divine will

So then we have God who became

man and God became man Why did he become

man for out of

charity to give life to people who could not

overcome death Death in the Old Testament could not be defeated

So Christ comes becomes man He is crucified He dies on the cross

he defeats death with his resurrection and by the power of Christ's resurrection because

Christ is resurrected we will all be resurrected

Γέροντα, γιατί ο Θεός επιτρέπει νά πεθαίνουν τόσοι νέοι άνθρωποι;

- Ο Θεός παίρνει τόν κάθε άνθρωπο στήν καλύτερη στιγμή τής ζωής του γιά νά σώσει τήν ψυχή του.

Εάν δει ότι κάποιος θά γίνει καλύτερος, τόν αφήνει νά ζήσει. 

Εάν δεί όμως ότι θά γίνει χειρότερος, τόν παίρνει γιά νά τόν σώσει. 

Μερικούς πάλι, πού έχουν αμαρτωλή ζωή, αλλά έχουν τή διάθεση νά κάνουν τό καλό, τούς παίρνει κοντά Του, πρίν προλάβουν νά τό κάνουν, επειδή ξέρει ότι θά έκαναν το καλό μόλις τούς δινόταν η ευκαιρία. 

Είναι δηλαδή σάν νά τούς λέει: “Μην κουράζεσθε• αρκεί η καλή διάθεση πού έχετε”.

 Άλλον, επειδή είναι πολύ καλός, τόν διαλέγει καί τόν παίρνει κοντά Του, γιατί ο Παράδεισος χρειάζεται μπουμπούκια. 

Φυσικά, οι γονείς καί οι συγγενείς είναι λίγο δύσκολο νά τό καταλάβουν αυτό...

Βλέπεις, πεθαίνει ένα παιδάκι, τό παίρνει Αγγελούδι ο Χριστός καί κλαίνε καί οδύρονται οι γονείς, ενώ έπρεπε να χαίρονται. 

Γιατί πού ξέρουν τι Θά γινόταν, αν μεγάλωνε;

Πρέπει έτσι νά χαίρονται οι γονείς. 

Άλλωστε από εκείνη τή στιγμή έχουν έναν πρεσβευτή στόν Παράδεισο. 

Όταν πεθάνουν, θα ’ρθουν τά παιδιά τους με τά εξαπτέρυγα στήν πόρτα του Παραδείσου νά υποδεχθούν τήν ψυχή τους. 

Δέν είναι μικρό πράγμα αυτό!!!

Στα παιδάκια πάλι πού ταλαιπωρήθηκαν εδώ από αρρώστιες ή από κάποια αναπηρία ο Χριστός θά πει: “Ελάτε στόν Παράδεισο καί διαλέξτε τό καλύτερο μέρος”. 

Καί τότε εκείνα θά Τού πουν: “Ωραία είναι εδώ, Χριστέ μας, αλλά θέλουμε καί τή μανούλα μας κοντά μας”. 

Καί ο Χριστός θά τά ακούσει καί θά σώσει μέ κάποιον τρόπο καί τήν μητέρα».

Υπάρχει άλλη ζωή , αυτό πού ζούμε είναι προετοιμασία γιά τήν Αιωνιότητα. 

Είναι τραγικό νά βιώνουμε ως Ορθόδοξοι τόν θάνατο ενός ανθρώπου ως μηδενιστική καταστροφή, ως απώλεια παντοτινή, ως εξαφάνιση τού ανθρώπου.

Στόν θάνατο ο άνθρωπος ολοκληρώνεται.

Μην μάς φοβίζει λοιπόν ο θάνατος διότι δενυ υπάρχει . 

Νά φοβόμαστε μήν χάσουμε τόν Χριστό.

Είναι αντιφατικό νά τρομάζουμε όταν ακούσουμε ότι τό παιδί , ο άντρας μου, η γυναίκα μου αρρώστησαν καί μπορεί νά χάσουν την εδώ ζωή αλλά νά μήν μας απασχολεί καθόλου αν θά γίνουν μέτοχοι τής αιωνιότητας.

Δέν υπάρχουν πεθαμένοι ή εξαφανισμένοι.

Υπάρχουν κεκοιμημένοι πού περιμένουν νά ξυπνήσουν.

Ποιόν περιμένουν ; 

Εκείνον πού «Καί πάλιν ἐρχόμενον μετά δόξης κρῖναι ζῶντας καί νεκρούς, οὖ τῆς Βασιλείας οὐκ ἔσται τέλος.

- Αγίου Παϊσίου του Αγιορείτου 

FATHER ELPIDIOS

 in the time of Elijah, my child, you know what happened; only Elijah was almost the one who

truly believed and their leaders and their church leaders had all

changed, they had gone with the idols; you know what order he gave Elijah to do

when that miracle happened above, he was now forced to admit that one

is the true god and not the idols, God ordered Elijah to

kill 400 priests for him you have it read this, you know. no, I didn't know; I didn't know.

he decapitated the priests.

do you have the feeling that what

Paisius once said, the becoming Paisius, and I've heard it; I haven't read it; I don't know

what's happening

. as the patrocosmas says

the patrocosmas what did he say in the last years say disrespectful if priests, and why

here we have to understand that he does not mean the sin that all

People, we are sinners he means disrespect and disrespect is that it

offends the true god we must ask ourselves, Are high priests and priests and

priests and monks and we are all right before God we have love and

worship of God or should we restore and re-read the

lives of these saints and holy girls they are reading my Catherine

my Marina the peace of Christ I say, my God I wish I could drink

from this faith this love, they have love my child in God we have a

love so watery so ugly and just thinking about it disgusts you, love

is the one we have in Christ tell me, if you think we have love, what is it?

we don't have love, my child; that's why I'm afraid of them now that they're coming and

a part of what's coming has been revealed to me: what will happen, believe

me, many times I get sad; I'm very sad, I say and I say, my God, all

these things will happen in my days; I'll see all these things, he told me that

no, you won't see them all, but you will see a part of the five great plagues that

will come in your country once my mother was in Africa in a place

over there very difficult and I said, oh my god will I see this in my country and

at night I went to sleep with these thoughts and I am very

sad and like a rabbit I fell asleep now I don't know how it is, you know

sometimes dreams visions are not strange and I heard a very sweet voice

very sweet voice but so sweet it is not even my father I don't know if there is

a person who loves you so much and talks to you so sweetly and so

tenderly and tells you, my child, five for the infidelity of your country that

became a godless Christian state, I will allow five great plagues

to come they will take their houses my child they will not have food they will

not have water there I was scared because I know what water is because in Africa I know

what this is then they will not have electricity or oil and five plagues and after

a while completion and two more plagues, I will allow

the Muslims to

spread throughout the world so that you will understand what your faith is

so true and you

Do not. I say the last thing: what is the matter

, my God,

I will allow my child to come; he says the war is in the yard of your house; I don't

know what he means, but then he saw other little things, what they will do to

people in the future, I was terrified, but I was afraid when I saw that

people will do something to the children, and at that moment

God will be so angry that he does not allow it; he will not allow it, and it will bring great destruction.

great destruction, so great that I am afraid to say that Greece will stay half

I'm afraid to say this Greece my child will stay half of Greece because of

our infidelity if we repent everything will change, she says, but they will regret it, my child it's difficult and

difficult, and she says, I want you to love me she says and tell all your spiritual children

not to love me, to be in love with me as they are when

my little girls are in love my hope, my love my faith, my burden

my Katerina, these are your brothers and sisters, in heaven; love them because

heaven and earth are one and pray for me now, make a big

prayer book and say it to all your children and to the whole world, because what they

will endure, people will not endure, people will not endure, father,

hopes, what can I say today, that is, really worry us?

don't watch these vaccines; what we are doing, you will see what will happen after that. I don't

have any more time. I'm sorry for these people I don't have any more time father hope

I'm very sad oh, forgive me for saying that you were tired of this no

no, don't say that this is your blessing I want you to give us so it will bless you

all and please God my child please God enlighten you

please God enlighten you the days begin and I say this they begin

because the day the resurrection took place and they were given to us orders, etc., to do it

earlier I was very sad and I went to a small hill and

I was walking over there I was looking down at the sea and I said, oh my god, what is this

and the way I was I was removed with piss and tears and I say how

I became an orthodox priest should I listen now to everyone who does not

believe in Christ should I follow them our leaders ask us to follow them and

they do not follow the Christ; they ask us to love them and to respect them; they

don't respect God when they don't respect the holy scriptures and he says in me,

You will honor me as you should in the resurrection. I went and did

the resurrection as he

wanted

. when

I was afraid I opened it then what was I going to say and what was it saying the spirit of God was saying inside

it the saints were looking in front of me and as if a sweet voice said to me until

the fiftieth until the holy spirit I will allow you to live in

peace this celebration only for my own children who believed in me and truly

loved me so that I would give them my holy spirit but all those who did not

love me right and I didn't ask my holy spirit to pray to many of

my children make truth me have patience and I will appoint many, he says spiritual

priests no longer to help but to collect the debris of their souls and

I said only spiritual children ask for the day of the holy spirit

ask God to give you the holy spirit to flood our heart and

to us with the divine love child without divine love, how will we endure

all that is coming only a lover endures tortures only

a lover, like a mother who is in love with her baby does everything

to save her baby even Christ sacrificed himself as a mother to

save us and now we, as children and babies, should only look at our mother we should

only look at our god we should look because he is our mother and our father but

he told me specifically my child I am saying this let everyone call me deluded I know

deluded I'm a lover he's always deluded, you know he doesn't

ask us simple love love god asks us after the holy spirit my child

everything will start after the holy spirit and before the coming of the

feast of pemi feast of my queen
