Personally, I disagree with you about you saying that the saints were stronger by being around death all the time, because I would say they were more desensitized to violence and death Because it was all around them. You can see this in old movies and westerns where people die, and people are so callous and hardened by the horror, as though it is just an expectation. Now, in these factually-weaker "1st world" societies, more people look at a dead stranger and some might start weeping at how sad it is, or be disturbed at what they had seen long afterwards. I think, to a certain extent, that being so sensitive to death and dying people makes people closer to GOD, and more innocent in The Eyes of GOD, in our hearts. I believe people should have greater empathy for death, than hardening into stone.
Sir, I wanted your opinion on a matter. What do you think of mushrooms? Specifically, the fruit. Though civilization can owe its thanks to yeast, I consider the fruit of a fungus to be satanic. The entire kingdom is alien to our planet, and there are good fungus like yeast and koji, but the fruit itself is wrong. Breathing oxygen, yet without awareness. Yearning for the light, yet not using it. I used to love mushrooms and am/was a mycologist, but what are your thoughts?
Fr. Spyridon.... thank you for your many teachings. I was raised protestant, my fiancee is catholic, but i am now exploring orthodoxy. It was not until i heard your teachings that I was able to quit marijuana. Your teaching "Cannabis and Christianity" helped me so many times when I felt the temptation. Praise God Almighty, i am back to being myself. He had been calling me out of it for many months, but the addiction was so strong. As soon as i quit (even taking edibles) i was forced to confront the reality of my spiritual condition. And in this time of exploring your orthodox teachings, i had never known Gods forgiveness, love, and grace like I know now.
Bless you my brother, we are fighting this battle for all of our brothers and sisters, our souls and the ones around us. I am constantly struggling with my passions, of which there are many, but I have never known as much peace in my struggle as I do now. Thank you for your testimony! 💪
Hey dude! I quit my daily usage of weed almost two years ago now and even though I don't consider myself a Catholic, more now than ever have I felt my own spiritual connection growing. I never realized how weed and alcohol separated me from my own spirituality. Fr. Spyridon's teachings on Cannabis and Christianity also resonated with me very strongly. It helped put into words many things I had already been realizing on my own after quitting weed. Glad to hear you are doing well!
I became a Christian specifically Catholic after I started smoking weed, I was a non-spiritual atheist, the vice helped to replace my porn addiction, I don't see how the plant could be demonized, but hey God said different strokes for different folks
@@antonioalas4814 Thank you for sharing, brother in Christ. I pray you receive these words in Grace. You said it yourself, it's a replacement. Only the power of Christ can heal. One addiction can't heal another addiction. It can only mitigate the spiritual effects of its sin. But everyone is on a different path. I smoked it for 11 years... The Lord allowed me to start edibles so I could stop smoking. I admit I am more spiritually susceptible when I am on it. I was into transcendental meditation, shamanism, and yoga, which opened demonic portals to mental illness, temptation, and spiritual attacks. That was my path. I am a Christian all my life. And it was not until I encountered orthodoxy and Fr. Spyridon that I encountered God's True Love and Peace. After a few weeks of quitting, I took an edible for fun but I was not the same. The high was a substitute: a replacement for what my soul yearned for, which I had received through Christ. The true Healing of Jesus Christ. Not a replacement, but the essence of True Love. The Love that says you are free from ALL sin. Amen 🙏
O gracious Apostle, Saint James, who by reason of thy fervent and generous heart wast chosen by Jesus to be a witness of His glory on Mount Thabor, and His agony in Gethsemane; thou, whose very name is a symbol of warfare and victory: obtain for us strength and consolation in the unending warfare of this life, that, having constantly, followed Jesus, we may be victors in the strife and deserve to receive the victor’s crown in heaven. Amen.
father, I have changed my life, I'm living a more Christian life, and fighting the temptations but my past sins still come back to haunt me. Pray for me, the only hope is Jesus, he has promised to free us, from the bondage of sin
I believe they come back to test and strengthen us in our new resolve. What helps me is the progress and change I see in the way I deal with them. Please read Matthew 12:44-45. I have experienced it to be the truth. All the best in your journey. You are doing this for all of us.
@@korrendous2546 please, since you've had experience with this, can you tell about that specific verse, how you understood it? What does it mean when the house is cleaned (after the demon is cast out) and what should the house be filled with after the demon had been cast out? Thank you.
@@arcanecontent @fekadu1978 your comments have just caught my attention and so I proceeded to read Matthew 12:43-45 of the Greek Orthodox Study Bible which provided an explanatory notation. It says word for word: " When the Israelites were delivered out of Egypt, they did not repent of their impure ways, and an unclean spirit took up residence in their hearts (here it provides further readings of Dt 31:20; Ps 105:34-39). Thus, we guard our hearts. Unless there is full repentance and the Holy Spirit dwells in a person, an expelled demon will return with others and reoccupy its abode."
Christ is risen! After 3 years of being a catechumen, I was finally baptized on Holy Saturday. Your videos have been a great source of sobriety, soothing and edification for me father. They have given me strength and hope and helped me deepen my repentance. Thank you 🙏
Congratulations! It means a great deal to me to hear that I could have any small part in someone’s journey to Orthodoxy, God bless and lead you deeper into the mystery of Christ.
I have been recovering from a disc bulge between my L3-L4 as well as my L5-S1. Many days I struggle against wrath and frustration, and other days sloth and despair. Your teachings lift me and keep my spirits pointed towards Christ, you help me to be reminded that Christ is with me always. I will continue my journey, thank you Spyridon.
I am a miserable sinner. Forgive me, Lord Jesus and thank you for giving me your righteousness in holy baptism. For I am made clean and righteous as I wear the garments of your salvation. Help me my Lord in my struggles and have mercy on me! Thank you.
Lust and anger are the hardest for me... Though I am very very confident if God kindly gives me the one I've been waiting for desperately those two temptations will go out of the window the moment I fall and she falls... Holy father holy son holy spirit amen
This is very hard for me to say because I struggle the same but God wants us to give up the lust and anger and He may or may not give us the one we desire.
as always Father Spyridom thanks so much for this message. Christ is risen and so is our hopes of salvation! Death has no sting despair is no more! I've been struggling with self abuse since the age of 13 and nothing but the orthodox view of the resurrection and of forgiveness has been able to make me rise up from despair and depression w/ the weight of my many sins. Your words have always been accompanying me and giving me strength. I've been baptized this pascha and hopefully i will ascend in my spiritual struggles as the spiritual battle goes on.
This teaching comes at an opportune time. I have been trying to free myself of three shackes: porn, video games and marijuana. Each time I free myself of one, the other two pull even harder. It's like they rotate and I am bound by two vices or temptations at a time. Through consistent prayer I can manage for a while to free myself of all three. I am committed to stopping the use of marijuana at the moment.
Greetings beloved spyridon, Glory to God only to God be the glory. ☦️ christ shall remove all stains of evil away from your viewers hearts by the word of God given to our beloved spyridon to feed the spiritual light of christos! Allow the light shine unto thy hearts my brother's and sisters. 🇬🇷
This might be my favorite video from you so far, Father Spyridon. I love how you describe what idolatry really is. So many of us seem to not really know what idolatry is, or seems the least bit aware that we're doing it. Best to remain self aware through Christ. May God be with us in these battles off the passions. God bless you, Father ☦️
With Jesus at your side there is no passion which can not be overcome. Fight, resist, struggle! If you stumble get back on your feet, and fight some more. Praise Jesus Christ!
Father, I struggle with many passions daily. Your message about dealing with them one at a time, whichever happens to be plaguing our heart in the moment, has helped me greatly. God bless Father, thank you
I agree. This explanation is brilliant in its simplicity--& something I'd never have figured out on my own. The demons' strategy is to overwhelm us, of course, and there are days where they seem to lob everything at once. But now I feel much better armed than I was just 10 minutes ago!
Thank you again, dear Fr Spyridon. O that we had more wisdom like yours close at hand and available. Seems many Orthodox don't consider too deeply these important matters, but rather are more caught up in this life. They seem to live without concern and are at ease with this existence, while others really struggle. Thank you for your help in many areas of need.
I keep falling back into sin, and spiraling down into sinning after doing so to cope with my shame. Im taking now and today to stop, im taking now to truly devote myself to God. To find joy in the trails, to fight genuinely and pray. Thank you for this video, may God bless you. It's amazing how God works, I told God this last night and this video showed up. God is so good.
Framing all temptations as ultimately taking away our love for others (and God) is so helpful. Who am I not loving when I give in to this anger or unforgiving spirit or lust or discontent or unthankfulness or pride....
Another most pertinent message. Thank you so much Father. I left the CofE and have found no Church or other institution that I can trust again. All seem highly infiltrated by Satan. However, your wise recordings and reading the Words of our Saviour help me to return to - and stay with Jesus. Thank you so much 🙏
@FatherSpryidon I just wanted to thank you for the messages you have been sharing in these videos. I’ve grown so much closer to the Lord and in my faith. I feel like a different person than I once was. I pray that the Lord will bless you and keep you.
Thank you Father Spyridon for your words of joy, hope, and wisdom! You fill my hearth with so much hope and joy! Father I am a sinner, and I am on the road of repentance. A road that i am willing to travel all of my life. You lift my heart and fill me with joy. Thank you for helping me understand my all mighty God! I bless you with all my heart. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
We will prevail over this World with all it's twists ,turns and deceit. So grateful for fighters like Father Spyridon. May Christ bring us back to our senses. God Bless you.
Thank you Fr. Spyridon, I didn’t chose to watch this at first as I thought I known better, I’m glad that my pridefulness was quenched, because when I do watch your videos I always learn from them. God bless you. 🙏☦️💟
Fr. Spyridon .. thanks to your videos and the work of my spiritual father here in Syria I am now 31 days off one of my worst passions (lust) which sadly relapsed yesterday just because of my regular online scrolling... I felt devastated but I realized that I was on all out war on every temption especially that many of them are hitting me during this final year in my medical school.
Fear is my problem but also I do struggle with lust and even anger I feel like when I fall into lust i deserve to feel this fear and when I fall into anger I feel like I need to feel that “worry” or “anxiety”
This reminds me of the story in genesis where God comes to speak to cain telling him that he could be master over his own sin. Thank you for the reminder Father Spyridon.
*Prayer:* Lord grant us strength to face our battles. May we learn from the Saints who triumphed over struggles. In our preparation for eternal life, help us overvome passions. Amen🙏
You have no guarantee of a single more day of life. In the years of old age, we reap the seeds we have sown. Do not put off the time of repentance and prayer to days that may not come.
I am hard of hearing and sadly cannot discern his words with the current volume level. I have downloaded the video and used a program called equalizer APO to boost the volume. If you are hard of hearing that works.
Forgive me, but this is a misplaced sentiment. The saints are full of wisdom, I am only relating what they have taught us. Further, I am a terrible sinner, and will need your prayers when I die. I appreciate that your post was motivated by kindness, but I am truly far from saintliness. I just make YT videos.
"The demons attack us, just as they have attacked Christians throughout the centuries... " True, but the thing is so far throughout Human history demons have been using knives, stones and pebbles against us sinners, whereas modern demons are now enjoying using that massive undefeated weapon called instant gratification. I take it praying to St Mary the Egyptian will barely suffice in this case.
