100% correct. God can't forgive us if we don't forgive others. It's the whole point to practicing Christianity.
Father Spyridon, thank you for this message god revealed this wisdom to me in an important part of my life. God bless you
Thank you for your teaching. I have a question. My sister is worshiping evil and did bad stuff to my family. I’m not mad at her and I forgive her but I didn’t do it to her personally. She has a voodoo doll and practices tero cards with her friends. I don’t want to be around her. I’m I sinning?
Father, I will forgive once I get even.
Lord Jesus Christ , son of God , have mercy on me , a sinner.
Mathew 5 : 44 , 45
What would I do without you father Spiridon
We hide our sins from man, but sin when man doesn’t watch, but God is watching always! WOW, never thought about that! Help me Lord Jesus!
Jesus Christ son of God , have mercy on me , a sinner.
Love your enemies , pray for those who persecute you.
Thank you Father , for your words.
Father Spyridon, Sir. The Orthodox Parish of Saint Nicholas, in Montreal, was so full of
hardened, Lebanese , money and status cherishing, arrogant, pompous, souls, who could care less about Christ, or walking with him ! In my childhood, I lost my sister to Baptist
instant results theology because she was not being fed! at the greatest of all Churches,
the Orthodox Church! It is not the fault of the Church, it was the fault of the diocese so,
attached to the old country! and despite limited clergy perhaps? they did not fight against
the Spiritual blindness, of the Parish population! The only good thing I can say, is that a lot
of these Spiritually blind and hardened Fools are all dead today! Perhaps they are in Hell too!
Good is all I can say! They were evil! Hostile to anything about their relations to GOD! or to
our Lord Jesus! But do I understand the validity , of the need of forgiveness? Absolutely!
But it is a sort of, letting go? in ones heart, of the pain, and anger, and outrage, resulting from the offending person's Sins against us? which I have suffered to learn ! I was so
angry with my father , for example, I was burning up! Thank GOD for the grace, he gave me to keep me from violence in the matter! You know Father Spyridon, it is all , also, a matter of just how toxic , and evil, the atmosphere IS, that confronts the believer! I first sought , out
GOD by reading the BIBLE, at the age of oh? ten or so. Saying to my heart, that there had to be some Goodness, in this world!??? Where are you GOD, when I saw the PAIN in my family!
I have nothing to do , today with my surviving brother or sister! Why? for selve preservation!
Thankfully the Holy Spirit, I think, has brought me to the point where I can let go, and let GOD
handle the past! Things were so bad, that my mother came to ME, as a child, and asked me to not reject, and turn away from my siblings, that she struggled to have! I diligently inquired
with both of them , if She ever did this request to them? The answer was NO! why ME?
An aunt of mine years later said to me……kenny? don't you know? You are the smartest of the
three of you! Any way, Father, your teachings of Orthodox Spirituality is wonderful! But father, as beautiful as your presentation IS, do you Not think that you are forgeting something?? I say this with the greatest of respect! SIR. What do we do, ? with an offender,
who is hell Bent to Leather convinced that WE are the offender!? and they have done nothing wrong! For me Father…the answer, by I can only say , was the grace of GOD over years! Years! was to let go of the anger, disconnect from my family, and move on , with my hand in our Lord's Hand! BUT THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN US DIED! AND IT HAD TO DIE!
BECAUSE THESE TOXIC PEOPLE WERE KILLING MY SOUL! AND , HOW COULD I RELATE TO THEM? MY filthy pig of a brother walked away with 3/4 of the estate; with my father's blessing , while I was denied my 1/3 share! I knew this would happen! but it still hurts father!
And my sister is a bible thumping Baptist today! Go figure? But she was never as bad as the other two. Our mother died of CANCER, WHEN WE WERE YOUNGER.
SO, for me, YES ! YES! we must forgive ! but that forgiveness father does NOT always include
repaired relationships! It is not natural to walk away from family! You know!
and having said this, I would appreciate your comments on offenders who refuse any guilt!
Next, I must, I am sorry Sir but I must, comment on your English Heritage! I know , father,
that some of the most dedicated followers of beautiful, deep Orthodox sprituality, are converts like yourself! But with that said Satan is making great inroads in churches like the
Episcopal Church, the United Church, and the Anglican Church !! Mr. Mark Steyn, who is
regularly interviewed BY Fox news host Tucker Carlson, and who is as Anglo UK ancestry
like yourself; reffers to these churches as POST CHRISTIAN, because they are !
Their acceptance of LGBT propaganda, as OK with the GOD of the bible IS HORRIBLE!
LGBT ARE WELCOME IN THE ORTHODOX CHURCH AS REPENTANT SINNERS, LIKE ALL THE REST OF US! NOT AS PRACTICING LGBTs !!! kennethzakaib607@gmail.com
How beautiful it is our God, how He loves us.
Thank you Father.
When I see your teaching, it feels like I’m looking back in time at a genuine dedicated man of God with great wisdom & love, Praise God~ your ministry blesses me🙏🏼✝️
Lord Jesus Christ , Son of God , have mercy on me a sinner.
Thank you for your words Father.
How is one to forgive if for example – your children have been sexually abused? My understanding of forgiveness is that you forgive – if the offender has genuinely repented & shown true remorse as our Lord clearly states in Luke 17: 3-4. Is the word of a saint above the Word of God? I can understand praying to God to help rid oneself of that anger & bitterness – which eats away like a cancer. But forgiveness – no – until that person repents & then if one still doesn’t forgive – then the sin reverts to you – because you have disobeyed the Lord’s instructions regarding repentance.
Thank you Father for this beautiful video about forgiveness.
We all need that.
God bless you.
Well done but the numeric value Peter set was hte numeric value as set by the Pharisee's. Just a nt – not to distract from the point – this valuable- eternally valuable, point.
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner.
Thank you for your words Father.
6:11, quotations of the saints.
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner.
Thank you for your words Father.
It's a harsh and truly unjust world we live in but is there a difference between the needy and the greedy when it comes to forgiveness. Should I forgive a thief who would take from me for profit and a man who takes from me to eat and stay alive.? Surly it's not the task of the victim to forgive the perpetrator but both perpetrator and victim to ask god for forgiveness. I respect myself too much to allow another to walk all over me and leave me battered and penniless. Pray for me F Spyridon as I pray for my forgiveness each night.
Thankyou for sharing. May Allah bless you and your family.
This is a necessary and valuable teaching.
Is it still forgiveness if you forgive someone yet do not want a relationship with them?
Forgiveness inoculates one against the root of bitterness. Bitterness is the act of hugging anger and hate.
