"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." Jesus Christ, Holy Bible, Matthew, Chapter 11
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner, Amen
You either believer or don't , big difference, fighting for your salvation will wear you out ! But won't it be worth it!???????? 🌍🌈💞🙏🙏🙏 Nothing insane about the unseen world brother, peace be with you.💋
You inspire me father, Thankyou, God bless you, pray for me!
Is that what Jesus meant when He said the first will be last and the last will be first, because the Lord also said when He returns will He find faith on earth
Ye that have faith to look with fearless eyes,
Beyond the tragedy of a world at strife,
And know that out of death and night
Shall rise the dawn of ampler life:
Rejoice whatever anguish rend the heart,
That God hath given you the priceless dower
To live in these great times and have your part
In freedoms crowning hour,
That ye me tell your sons who see the light,
High in the heavens, their heritage to take-
“I saw the powers of darkness take their flight;
I saw the morning break.”
-Owen Seaman. God bless you. 🙏✝️
Thank you!
3:20, quotations of the saints
Beautiful message. God Bless you and thank you for sharing. It is essential that we continue to encourage each other to hold the faith and remain steadfast in Christ Jesus. We must guard our hearts from becoming affected by the worldliness around us. We must remain of passionate love devotion for & unto Christ Jesus as we continue to do our best to share this with others.
King James Version
3 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as their's also was.
10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;
15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
Revelation 3:16
King James Version
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
Revelation 3:11
King James Version
11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
🙏🔥🥰🛐✝️ Amen
You hit the nail on the head, Father. Paleo-pagans, unlike Neo-pagans, at least had the potential for conversion because they recognized some sort of Godhead. Neo-pagans worship themselves.
It is indeed very hard to raise our children to be devoted christians today when even in school they are taught something different and even opposite…This is my greatest concern.
Thank you Father, I am beginning my journey into orthodoxy. Thank you for the strength, wisdom, and hope you share. God bless you.
Bless you Father. This is a dark world we live in. But that only gives us more reason to keep the light of Christ shining in this world.
We who desire His coming will cast our crowns at His feet.

APOCALYPSE 3:10
BECAUSE THOU HAST KEPT THE WORD OF MY PATIENCE, I WILL ALSO KEEP THEE FROM THE HOUR OF TEMPTATION, WHICH SHALL COME UPON THE WHOLE WORLD TO TRY THEM THAT DWELL UPON THE EARTH.
Lord Jesus Christ , Son of God , have mercy on me , a sinner
Put all your love , trust , and faith in the Lord.
Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.
Thank you for your words Father.
Another fine gift which I have use to build upon my worship to Our Mighty God & King… He's at the door, indeed we have hope. Very Grateful to God for directing me to these short but so informative, oft challenging Homilies. Blessings Father Spyridon
I think with the planet being so over polluted, the deceptive science pushing for the over consumption agenda when it's obvious the planet is in a really bad state, the mother earth discipline of being aware of pollution and encouraging others to be aware needs to be a strong focus right now. People don't even realise that keeping your mobile phone on in your pocket is doing damage to your body and the environment
You are not speaking of me!
Biden winning the election allows communism to take over every country, as predicted buy Holy Mother Mary at Fatima. Now we face RFID chips being only way to live, the mark of the beast as per Revelations, Christians cannot receive this chip. Only our Lord Jesus coming back early can stop this evil.
This was excellent. Very very helpful!
🤲✝️🤲✝️💐
Every generation has its trials and tribulations for Christians but those who hold their faith in any generation will win the crown of heaven Jesus in the past present and future
That was a great point about the difference between the ancient pagans, who at least held beliefs, and modern men who are nihilists and believe in nothing.
"To yield to our base desires is the lowest form of slavery. To rule over our sinful desires is the ONLY true form of freedom." Wow! St Justin Martyr really hit the head on the nail with this statement! Thank you so much Father 🙏
God bless you Father Spyridon , thank you for blessing us with His Light.
