- “Christ is the one who came in order to do what Adam did not do: to be the priest of creation...not just for the human being, although it was achieved through the human being. Christ came so that the whole world may live, and the human being may become that which he was meant to be when he was created by God, namely the priest of creation.”
-Metropolitan John (Zizioulas) of Pergamon
Some Christians think the world is bad: that we need to escape our bodies and physical things.
But the spiritual life isn't just about the spirit. Matter matters. Our job isn't to abandon the physical world, but to save it.
And this is exactly what we see in the great feast of Theophany.
As always, we've prepared a FREE downloadable workbook to help you act on what you'll learn.

Hey man im sorry for asking but could i ask/tell you something that is frightnening me please
@@martinniceski4032 As Jesus said, be not afraid!
It sounds like it might be a personal thing. Is there a priest you can talk to? It's better to talk about things like that with someone who knows you in real life.
@@stevenchristoforou1667 yea there is i think that ill go to talk to him today or on monday thank you btw! God bless you!
Greetings from New Jersey !!! Thank you Steve for all these amazing videos. I am leaving the Protestant faith to become an Orthodox Christian! Your videos have been helping me throughout my journey! Thank you! God bless you brother
I look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the age to come. Amen
Interesting, I've always hated the world. This video given me something to think about.

Luke 23:43
And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.
Amen!
Can you pray for my grandfather who fell and broke his hip and now he is in the hospital. He is in his 80s and it’s not safe to be in a hospital right now
no one in my family can even visit him inside right now
@@LoveLove-jk9kz God bless your grandfather. And your entire family.
Lord have mercy!
How is he now, if I may ask?
How beautiful
Blessed Theophany to all!!! Thank you for this great video!!!! (It may be easier to follow if the background music was slower/softer or off? But that’s only my opinion, the content of course still remains beneficial for us all :) )
God bless you man you are a really great person i love you!
Amen☦️❤️✝️
Creation is not just one dimension
He did not sanctify all of creation. Tell me where in scripture you got that.
Hello!
I would like to make some videos like this, do you think you can help me with some tips?
Thanks for reaching out!
If you're an Orthodox Christian, the first thing you should do is talk to your priest and bishop. You should receive a blessing before you try to teach the Gospel.
God bless you!
@@stevenchristoforou1667 Thank you for your answer!
Yes, I am an Orthodox Christian, I will ask for the blessing and then I will ask you to tell me how to make these videos, what programs to use to edit the videos.
May I ask you what you think of the russian military cathedral?
I haven't thought about it. What's on your mind?
@@stevenchristoforou1667 For me personally, it is simply a mistake to put images of war and Christ in one building.
@@ricog7147 oh is that what's going on? Yeah, that doesn't sound like a good thing.
@@stevenchristoforou1667 It is a "cathedral" to honor the russian military.
@@ricog7147 Yeah, very odd.
We are foreigners in this world and that is the word of God. He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. Jesus was baptized because he gave up his deity on earth and lived as man and yet did not sin. He was not baptized to bless the water. He was baptized to show us how to die to our flesh and live through His life; life eternal. The old man is dead. It is not I who lives, but He, who lives through me. I am afraid you have been deceived. Please reread these scriptures. It is better to quote scripture than a man. A "Saint" is a mortal man. Theotokos is a mortal woman and should not be praised or prayed to. Romans 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.
Was Jesus dunked or washed during his baptism?
What do you mean by "washed"?
@@stevenchristoforou1667 Wash/Sprinkle/Pour water to baptise children/cradle Christians...Was that the way how Jesus baptized by John or was he immersed into water?
@@zachariajohnson5639 The text frames it as immersion (for example, Mark 1 describes Him as "coming up from the water").
Immersion is how we understand Jewish ritual purity from the time, too.
And immersion continues to be both the way the Church baptizes people and the way pilgrims to the Jordan River experience their visit.
@@stevenchristoforou1667 So if that's the way Jesus was baptized then is it wrong to baptize children by pouring or sprinkling water over them?
@@zachariajohnson5639 I don't know if it's "wrong" (or even what "wrong" means in this context). I just know that the Church has always baptized people (both children and adults) by full immersion.
stop saying jesus is God cos God will never downgrade or stoop soo little to be nailed on a roman cross and be sold for coins, can we start observing the Sun cos the Sun of God is God, great, light and life giver to every being on earth, no man can even touch it or do anything to it because is God
You're saying the giant ball of gas that the earth orbits is "god"?
Tell me: 1) is God ultimate goodness, having all virtues, and 2) is humility one of virtues?
Lovely 😍💋 💝💖❤️
Fantastic 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️
jesus scammed yall
And how did He do that?
