วีดีโอ

As an 80 y.o. altar server, [for 18 months] I see God's 'presence' whenever I'm in the altar area; and especially at and after the anaphora - the 'This is My Body...' time. I get kind of choked up then until Communion is over. It's hard to say 'who' and 'how' it just - is - Dakyi-o [I think]

This message filled me with the desire to live in This Paradise NOW! To live in God’s presence every day, all the time, just like Christians lived in the first centuries, celebrating the incarnation of Christ, every day!

Praying for the dead is biblical. Read the book of Hebrews

If there is no incarnation, then there is no Christ. Man cannot anoint himself or call himself Christ. To do so, man would have to have the mind of Christ and be without sin.

Thank you for joining us in exploring the Incarnation of the Son of God. Feel free to share your thoughts below-what does the Incarnation mean to you personally?

Orthodox is life❤all Orthodox is true

Thank you for joining me on this journey to explore the mystery of the Holy Trinity! 🙏 I hope this lecture brings clarity to a concept that is both challenging and beautiful in its depth. Let me know your thoughts in the comments!

I like Orthodox church .. as catholic we are brothers and sisters in christ.

Thank you father... My friend insist that Satan amd devils are going to be with God at the end .. God will take each soul out of hell to be with him in heaven,. He said he prays for the soul in hell and also pray for satan so they can get out of hell. We argued but he wont change his mind. I dont want to talk anymore to this person. He is catholic and a helper at church by being in the choir and in charge of the Eucharistic hosts a d puting the vessel on altar for mass and purifyung after use . I cant be arguing with him about hell because he said he saw hell in his vision ..saw people in the fire ... Should I stay away from him ? Infeel he is arogant and proud to be corrected... The lriest likes him becayse he gives him money etc. He dont correct him.I feel thiers favoritism here.

I have been a Christian all my life, yet at every class I end up learning so much! So grateful for this teaching and those lectures!

So there will be wills contrary and rebellious to God that continue on forever in the eschaton desiring sin? This is very sad if it is true that wide is the road that leads to destruction.

Read the Bible stop asking for man opinions idiot

Holy water has astonishing powers. I have not studied to be a priest yet I have used holy water to cleanse a house and the response was significant and the results were excellent.

It’s appointed a man once to die and then the judgment Hebrews 9:27 I only trust the Bible

Being present at church to hear this message truly gave me a glimpse and a taste of heaven on earth. I pray the same experience to those who will hear it here. If your travels ever bring you to Toronto, come and see!

Thank you to everyone who joined for Lecture 2! In this session, we explored the deep significance of the Church building as the Kingdom of God on earth and how it mirrors Heaven. We delved into the symbolism behind the three parts of the Church, the importance of sacred objects, and how the Beatitudes are woven into the very structure of our place of worship. I hope this lecture helps deepen your understanding and appreciation of what makes our churches truly a glimpse of Heaven on earth. Please feel free to share your thoughts, questions, and reflections below!

Спасибо большое за очень интересное, глубокое разъяснение Святой Божественой литургии, за юмор отдельное спасибо!

Лайк для того чтобы это видео не исчезло.

Почему и хуцпа ценится как положительное качество характера. Заявивший о своем праве более угоден Богу, чем наивный человек ожидающий справедливости и честности от окружающих.

В итоге Эйсава идиотом таки сделали…) Жестокий, грубый, тупой, прямой, наивный. Даже мать родная ему добра не желала.

Как-то забыли Вы упомянуть, что первородство - это прежде всего вопрос наследства. И «продать» своё право на наследство отца за миску похлебки не мог даже полный идиот, которым Эйсав разумеется не был. Внутрисемейное мошенничество, вознесенное на уровень подвига и божественной удачи. Чем восхищаются и до сих пор. Ну, мораль такая себе… «Не обманешь - не продашь» - сказали бы современники Иакова.

Hello Father. Thank you for this class. Is it possible for you to add those church father quotes you read to your website as well? 🙏

Thank you so much for these videos! I have been studying orthodoxy for a few weeks now and this has helped me so much! Iim trying to implement some of my learning in daily life. I went to a vesper service and will be attending another one soon. I’m trying to get to a Divine Liturgy but my job won’t cooperate. Pray for me please. The more I learn the stronger I feel pulled in this direction.

This is an excellent explanation of the sacraments and the value of participating in the sacraments.

The bodies of Saints do not give off a smell after they are deceased, they are incorrupt

This was a very helpful video

a cross is death. resurrection is life

use the bible. God is loving and just. in love he gave us bible teaching on how to be saved, not orthodox doctrine. in justice those who reject those teaching are confined to hell to not allow their chaos in heaven. in heaven is God's richness shared with us. in hell nothing nothing is shared. people reap their own natures. simple as that.

❤️Thank You Father for this guidance ❤️All Glory To God ❤️ May God bless you too Father ❤️
