The Terrifying Words of a Demon During an Exorcism

A man became possessed, and they heard the demon say the following terrifying words:

“Man, this is how we demons speak. Man, you commit so many sins, and your Manolis keeps forgiving you.

Who is Manolis? Emmanuel — Christ.

But he does not call Him Emmanuel. He calls Him ‘Manolis.’ He always tries to diminish Him.

‘And Manolis keeps forgiving you all the time.’

‘And when you commit some great sin, you bring in that mediator woman. You bring in that woman, and whatever she asks of Him, He grants her.’

The priest asked the demon why Christ did what He did. Listen to what the demon answered through the mouth of the possessed man:

‘Because she lent Him what He did not have. She lent Him a body, and He is forever indebted to her.

Even your bodies, when Manolis created them, He created them in the shape of the wood upon which the Jews lifted Him.’

It would not say the word ‘cross.’ It could not say ‘cross.’

‘Open your arms for a moment,’ it said.

‘Open your arms and see what shape your body immediately takes.

Even your bodies,’ it said, ‘He made in the shape of the wood upon which the Jews lifted Him.

And yet you still do not believe in Him. Or, if you believe, you believe only a little.

Listen — if you were to lend me some money in my difficult hour, and if I were an honorable man, I would be indebted to you for the rest of my life. I would always thank you for helping me in my difficult moment.

So think about it: what honor must a God have toward the one who lent Him a body?’

‘Sit down, my child. There is a very nice chair there. Sit down.’

‘So, the one who lent Him the body…

I committed one act of disobedience in Heaven. I was an angel, and I committed an act of disobedience in Heaven and fell forever into hell together with all my angels.

But you sin every day. And the moment you say, “I have sinned,” the other one intervenes — meaning the Virgin Mary — and immediately He forgives you and even wants to place you with Him forever.’

It would not even say the word ‘Paradise.’

‘To be with Him, to enjoy His light…

And I also experience that light, but I do not enjoy it. It burns me.

Whereas you — some of you are already saints even now — and all of you who will go with Him forever…

Do you hear what Paradise is? It is the enjoyment of the uncreated divine light.

And what is hell? The same light. Because God is everywhere present, and even in hell His light descends.

But the damned and the demons, instead of experiencing that light with joy and as knowledge that fills them with understanding — because that light is full of knowledge according to each person’s desires…

God forbid that we should ever go there.

For them, the light becomes a burning fire. It condemns the conscience and burns the conscience.

Because we carry our conscience with us. Whatever conscience we had in this life, we carry with us.

And may God make us worthy of that light — that it may be a delightful light, a light full of knowledge and understanding — so that we may complete what we began in this temporary life.’

The priest asked:

‘Why did you enter this man?’

‘His parents sinned,’ it answered, ‘and later he himself became careless, and I entered.

Because He does not permit me otherwise. Do you know how many times I asked Him?

This is what I especially wanted to tell you. I have never said it before.

Do you know how many times I asked to enter and asked for a body?

And He does not permit me to unite with a body, with a woman, as His Spirit united with her. And He does not allow evil to become immortal. That is why He does not permit it.

How much Christ loves us — so that evil may not become immortal!

And not only that,’ it said. ‘He does not allow me to become a demon-man.

Just as He became the God-Man. The devil wants to become a demon-man.

Since I cannot,’ it said, ‘sometimes He permits me, when I see someone careless, to enter into him. To enter into the image of God — meaning man — and trouble him and take hold of him.’

‘Forgive me for speaking at such length, my dear Anna, but these things must be said, because I see that our world needs catechesis — not only this.’

Let us turn to Christ.

His mercy is greater than our sins.

The intercession of the Theotokos leads us to Christ.

The light of Christ is life — not only in heaven, but now.

1. ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΑ ΕΙΣΑΙ ΔΙΚΟΣ ΜΑΣ ΤΩΡΑ... Αντί για μια απάντηση στην αμφιβολία και την ερώτησή μου, βρέθηκα ξανά στην κόλαση και στον Άδη. Οι δαίμονες έτρεχαν κρατώντας λίστες, δείχνοντας τα αμαρτήματά μου και φωνάζοντας: «Μας υπηρέτησες όταν ήσουν στη γη. Είσαι δικός μας τώρα!...» Άρχισα να διαβάζω τα αμαρτήματά μου και όλες τις πράξεις μου, που ήταν γραμμένες με μεγάλα γράμματα, ανάμεσα σε μεγάλο φόβο. Είδα φωτιά να βγαίνει από το στόμα τους καθώς με χτυπούσαν στο κεφάλι. Σπίθες αναμμένης φωτιάς έπεφταν πάνω μου και κολλάνε, καίγοντάς με. Γύρω μου άκουγα ένα φοβερό μοιρολόι, έναν μεγάλο κεραυνό και τις κραυγές πολλών ανθρώπων. Όταν η φωτιά δυνάμωσε, είδα τα πάντα γύρω μου. Οι ψυχές είχαν τρομακτική όψη. Μερικές ήταν ακρωτηριασμένες με τεντωμένους λαιμούς, και άλλες με πρησμένα μάτια. Μου είπαν: «Είσαι σύντροφός μας, (εννοώντας, προφανώς, τον κομμουνιστικό χαιρετισμό), και είσαι υποχρεωμένος να ζήσεις μαζί μας τώρα...» Όπως κι εσείς, έτσι κι εμείς, όταν ζούσαμε στη γη, δεν αναγνωρίσαμε τον Χριστό, βλασφημήσαμε και καταραστήκαμε, κάναμε κάθε είδος κακού, και ειδικά πορνεία, υπερηφάνεια, και δεν μετανοήσαμε ποτέ. Πολλοί αμάρτησαν, αλλά μετά μετανόησαν και πήγαν στην Εκκλησία, προσευχήθηκαν στον Θεό, έδειξαν έλεος στους φτωχούς και βοήθησαν κάθε άνθρωπο που είχε ανάγκη. Όλοι αυτοί είναι τώρα εκεί πάνω, μακριά από εμάς... (εννοώντας, φυσικά, τον Παράδεισο, τον οποίο δεν ήθελαν να αναφέρουν ούτε ονομαστικά...) Φοβήθηκα όταν άκουσα αυτά τα λόγια, και ειδικά ότι θα ζούσα σε αυτά τα τρομερά μέρη για πάντα... Μετά από αυτά, μέσα σε ένα φως που έδιωξε το σκότος, η Θεοτόκος εμφανίστηκε ξανά. Οι δαίμονες έφυγαν, ενώ οι βασανισμένες ψυχές άρχισαν να παρακαλούν με δυνατές κραυγές για έλεος: «Ουράνια Βασίλισσα, μη μας εγκαταλείπεις, Μητέρα του Θεού, σε παρακαλούμε, καιγόμαστε και δεν υπάρχει ούτε σταγόνα νερό για να ξεδιψάσουμε...» Έκλαψε με συμπόνια μαζί τους, αλλά, μην έχοντας τη δύναμη της λύτρωσης, τους είπε: «Όσο ζούσατε στη γη, δεν Με αναγνωρίσατε, μάλιστα Με βλασφημήσατε. Δεν μετανοήσατε για τις αμαρτίες σας απέναντι στον Υιό Μου και τον Θεό σας, και γι' αυτό δεν μπορώ να σας βοηθήσω τώρα. Αλλά ούτε ο Χριστός μπορεί, γιατί δεν μπορεί να πάει ενάντια στο θέλημα του Πατρός Του!» Εγώ βοηθώ μόνο εκείνους για τους οποίους προσεύχονται οι συγγενείς τους και για τους οποίους προσεύχεται η αγία Εκκλησία. Μετά από αυτά τα λόγια, αρχίσαμε να ανεβαίνουμε, ενώ από κάτω οι φωνές των κολασμένων γίνονταν δυνατότερες: «Μητέρα του Θεού, μη μας αφήνεις...» 2. ENGLISH YOU ARE OURS NOW... But instead of an answer to my doubt and question, I found myself again in hell and in Hades. The demons came running with lists, showing my sins and shouting: “You served us when you were on earth. You are ours now!...” I began to read my sins and all my deeds, which were written in large letters, amid great fear. I saw fire coming out of their mouths as they struck me on the head, Sparks of burning fire fell on me and stuck to me, burning me. Around me I heard a terrible wail, a great thunder, and the cries of many people. When the fire grew stronger, I saw everything around me. The souls had a dreadful appearance. Some were maimed with stretched necks, and others with swollen eyes. They said to me: “You are a comrade of ours, (meaning, apparently, the communist salute), and you are obliged to live with us now...” Just as you, so we, when we lived on earth, did not recognize Christ, we blasphemed and cursed, we did every kind of evil, and especially fornication, pride, and we never repented. Many sinned, but afterwards repented and went to Church, prayed to God, showed mercy to the poor, and helped every person in need. All of them are now up there, far from us... (meaning, of course, the Paradise, which they did not want to mention even by name...) I was afraid when I heard these words, and especially that I would live in these dreadful places for all eternity... After these, within a light that drove away the darkness, the Mother of God appeared again. The demons fled, while the tormented souls began to plead with loud cries for mercy: “Heavenly Queen, do not abandon us, Mother of God, we beg you, we are burning and there is not a drop of water to quench our thirst...” She wept compassionately with them, but, not having the power of redemption, she said to them: “While you lived on earth, you did not recognize Me, indeed you even blasphemed Me. You did not repent for your sins against My Son and your God, and that is why I cannot help you now. But neither can Christ, for He cannot go against the will of His Father!” I help only those for whom their relatives pray, and for whom the holy Church prays. After these words, we began to rise, while from below the voices of the damned grew stronger: “Mother of God, do not leave us...” 3. РУССКИЙ ТЕПЕРЬ ТЫ НАШ... Но вместо ответа на мои сомнения и вопросы, я снова оказался в аду и в преисподней. Демоны прибежали со списками, показывая мои грехи и крича: «Ты служил нам, когда был на земле. Теперь ты наш!...» Я начал читать свои грехи и все свои дела, которые были написаны крупными буквами, в великом страхе. Я видел огонь, выходящий из их ртов, когда они били меня по голове, искры горящего огня падали на меня и жгли. Вокруг себя я слышал ужасный вопль, сильный гром и крики множества людей. Когда огонь усилился, я увидел все вокруг. Души имели ужасный вид. Некоторые были увечными с вытянутыми шеями, другие с опухшими глазами. Они сказали мне: «Ты наш товарищ (имея в виду, судя по всему, коммунистическое приветствие), и ты обязан жить с нами теперь...» Как и ты, так и мы, когда жили на земле, не признавали Христа, богохульствовали, делали всякое зло, особенно блуд и гордыню, и никогда не каялись. Многие грешили, но потом покаялись, ходили в церковь, молились Богу, миловали бедных и помогали каждому нуждающемуся. Все они теперь там, наверху, далеко от нас... (имея в виду, конечно, Рай, который они не хотели даже называть по имени...) Я испугался, услышав эти слова, и особенно того, что буду жить в этих ужасных местах целую вечность... После этого, в свете, прогнавшем тьму, снова явилась Богородица. Демоны бежали, а мучимые души стали громко молить о милосердии: «Царица Небесная, не оставляй нас, Богородица, молим Тебя, мы горим и нет ни капли воды, чтобы утолить нашу жажду...» Она сострадательно плакала с ними, но, не имея власти искупления, сказала им: «Когда вы жили на земле, вы не признавали Меня, вы даже богохульствовали. Вы не покаялись в грехах против Моего Сына и вашего Бога, и поэтому Я не могу помочь вам сейчас. Но и Христос не может, ибо Он не может пойти против воли Своего Отца!» Я помогаю только тем, за кого молятся их родственники и святая Церковь. После этих слов мы начали подниматься, а снизу голоса проклятых становились все сильнее: «Богородица, не оставляй нас...» 4. ESPAÑOL AHORA ERES NUESTRO... Pero en lugar de una respuesta a mi duda y pregunta, me encontré de nuevo en el infierno y en el Hades. Los demonios vinieron corriendo con listas, mostrando mis pecados y gritando: “Nos serviste cuando estabas en la tierra. ¡Ahora eres nuestro!...” Comencé a leer mis pecados y todas mis acciones, que estaban escritas con letras grandes, con gran temor. Vi fuego saliendo de sus bocas mientras me golpeaban en la cabeza, chispas de fuego cayeron sobre mí y se me pegaron, quemándome. A mi alrededor escuché un lamento terrible, un gran trueno y los gritos de muchas personas. Cuando el fuego se hizo más fuerte, vi todo a mi alrededor. Las almas tenían un aspecto espantoso. Algunas estaban mutiladas con cuellos estirados, y otras con ojos hinchados. Me dijeron: “Eres un camarada nuestro (refiriéndose, al parecer, al saludo comunista), y estás obligado a vivir con nosotros ahora...” Al igual que tú, nosotros, cuando vivíamos en la tierra, no reconocimos a Cristo, blasfemamos y maldijimos, hicimos todo tipo de maldad, especialmente fornicación, orgullo, y nunca nos arrepentimos. Muchos pecaron, pero luego se arrepintieron y fueron a la Iglesia, oraron a Dios, mostraron misericordia a los pobres y ayudaron a todos los necesitados. Todos ellos están ahora allá arriba, lejos de nosotros... (refiriéndose, por supuesto, al Paraíso, que ni siquiera querían mencionar por su nombre...) Tenía miedo cuando escuché estas palabras, especialmente de vivir en estos lugares espantosos por toda la eternidad... Después de esto, dentro de una luz que expulsó la oscuridad, la Madre de Dios apareció de nuevo. Los demonios huyeron, mientras las almas atormentadas comenzaron a suplicar con fuertes gritos por misericordia: “Reina del Cielo, no nos abandones, Madre de Dios, te rogamos, estamos ardiendo y no hay ni una gota de agua para calmar nuestra sed...” Lloró compasivamente con ellos, pero, no teniendo el poder de redención, les dijo: “Mientras vivían en la tierra, no me reconocieron, incluso me blasfemaron. No se arrepintieron de sus pecados contra mi Hijo y su Dios, y es por eso que no puedo ayudarlos ahora. ¡Pero tampoco puede Cristo, porque no puede ir en contra de la voluntad de su Padre!” Solo ayudo a aquellos por quienes sus parientes oran, y por quienes la santa Iglesia ora. Después de estas palabras, comenzamos a subir, mientras que desde abajo las voces de los condenados se hacían más fuertes: “Madre de Dios, no nos dejes

Elderly Galactia

 Elderly Galaktia: “The Turks Are Afraid. They Will Take a Beating from the Bolsheviks (Russians)!”

1) A GREAT EVIL WILL COME

July 9, 2020
Recorded by her caregivers.

ELDER:
“I was with the Leader of all things and the entire staff. All the officers were there, and the First One also came. A great and terrible loss! What are these things that are going to happen? Look… The enemy, there he is outside. What is he doing?

‘God is with us, and no one can stand against us.’

‘Save, O Lord, Your people and bless Your inheritance.’

Strange things, strange things, strange things… Married people, young people, and priests. My eyes have seen many terrible things.

A great evil will come. We are fighting to confront it and hold it back. In the end, everything will be put in order. Not one way for one person and another way for another.

The Great Commander of the Heavenly Powers, the dark one [meaning Michael], was saying:

‘Since they do not speak about repentance, and those who ought to say it are ashamed to do so, you tell the people to call upon me in difficult times and say:

“Having you as the protector and helper, guardian and deliverer of my humble soul, Michael, first among the Archangels and great Commander, in the hour of danger, help me.”’

(She was chanting the Magnificat/Hymn of the Archangel, which she recited many times during each day.)

2) THE TURKS ARE COMING

April 28, 2016
The Elder was speaking to a high-ranking military officer who had visited her.

ELDER:
“Listen, my child. The Turks are coming. They will enter Crete for two or three days. They are cowards. They will do little. But they will do something because of our sins…

Then they will leave in panic.

The Bolsheviks (Russians) will come down. They are Orthodox. They control half of Europe. Turkey will meet its final fate at their hands. It will never see the light of day again.

Do you hear me?”

3) THE TURKS ARE COWARDS AND DECEIVERS

December 16, 2016
The Elder was speaking to her caregivers.

ELDER:
“The Turks are deceitful. They are afraid; they are trembling.

They will make a ‘bouli-bouli tsa’ [an expression referring to making a commotion or causing trouble] and then they will disappear forever.

Tell people this, so that they will not be afraid.

We only need to repent.

And you will see gifts and divine wonders.

Only keep saying: repentance.

We have become like worms, my children…”

4) ADVICE TO CYPRIOTS

January 10, 2018
The Elder was speaking to young Cypriots.

ELDER:
“Keep your humanity, my children; your honesty and your purity.

No premarital relationships.

There is nothing wrong with getting married, living with your wife—and you,” (she said to one of the young women), “with your husband, having children and creating a family.

But live as God commanded. As God taught.

Not with the filth that the devil boasts about today.

If you do these things, furrows and cracks will open in your soul that will not easily close.

Be careful with your eyes and with your thoughts. We also sin through these things, but less.

You,” (she said to one of the young men), “are embarrassed and afraid of me. Do not be afraid, my child. Your little heart shines.

And you,” (she said to another), “have eyes sparkling with intelligence, and you are absorbing everything here now.

Continue to pray.

But not only prayer and monasteries… and work.

Honest work also becomes prayer, because we do it with prayer.

A famine will come…

It will not affect us very much.

We will live on snails and wild greens.

It will not last long.

The Bolsheviks (the Russians) will be the ones who punish Turkey.”

(She repeated this at least ten times.)

“I am saddened that people will be killed, because they are human beings too. But they do not sit quietly, my child. They do not learn.

They will take a beating from the Bolsheviks—a severe one.”

“Give my greetings to the Bishop (Morphou), who sent you.

He has drive, fire. He is a beast [in the sense of being extremely powerful and vigorous].

He sits on the ground. He is simple like the children…

And the others—the Bishops from Cyprus whom I met—they are chosen ones.

Give them, from me, a paper icon of Saint George that I will give you, so that they will remember me and forgive me.

The holiest man is called Ephraim, and he is in America…”

5) CYPRUS WILL BE UNITED, BEAUTIFULLY

January 15, 2018
The Elder was speaking to Cypriots.

ELDER:
“You will suffer nothing in the things that are coming…

Cyprus will be united, beautifully, beautifully.”

(She made a gesture with her hands.)

“They will leave”—she meant the Turks—“and then you will also acquire true freedom.

Your Bishop (Morphou) will be voted for by everyone here on earth and by everyone above.”

(She pointed toward the sky.)

6) CYPRUS WILL BE LIBERATED

April 25, 2018
The Elder was speaking to a young Cypriot.

ELDER:
“Now you are completely clean.

You do not like lies, obscene words, or vulgarities.

You do not tolerate sin.

Once, however, you were burdened.

You must get married.

Half of your homeland is ‘bergomeno’ [wrapped in thorns, held captive].

But the prescription has ended.

It will easily be freed from its entanglement and become one.

You are unmarried. You will get married… that is how it should be.

Your mother feeds you. She has a soft spot for you.

You have been here for two or three days and she is already looking for you…”
