St Porphyrios says to not believe your mind if it tells you you’re a saint or the worst person… the devil will play on your arrogance or your despair

[@OrthodoxTradition]

We must follow "consensus patrum" of the Orthodox Church fathers. People can fall into despair, and in such a case, it wouldn't be wise to keep thinking that you are the worst person, but St. Paul is the first to call himself the "chief sinner."

[@Chancel388]

Im sorry that i couldnt be more like you guys.

[@PatronSaintSpyridon]

Don't be sorry just attend liturgy and spend everyday putting effort into being better and God will bless you for it.

[@Chancel388]

@@PatronSaintSpyridon but I’m so stressed with everything else. Borderline homeless and frustrated. Frustrated with the world. I don’t intend to take my anger out on him but it keeps happening because he’s the only one I have.

[@OrthodoxTradition]

Please don't give up hope. We are all sinners. Repent, and you will be saved.

[@rameybutler-hm7nx]

Bless you and all of the followers of the Logos.☦️

[@rameybutler-hm7nx]

​@@Chancel388 its okay i've been in the same dark place, God is still there with you. Remember to say The Jesus prayer and have faith in the plan, i know i needed someone to say that to me today. But I will say a prayer for you and ask Saint Clement to pray for you also. Please do not give up, fight for your faith by kneeling and showing humbleness.

If it were not for the Lord the Theotokos the Archangels Angels the Saints and Monks Nuns Holy Fathers the Church prayer daily this world would not even be functioning the sheer miracle of humanity despite the insane egoic demonic age that anyone can get through a day is a miracle so I am so thankful. I am sober 7 mo by Gods grace it’s not easy at times I do think about it but I can’t go back to dying and anesthesia unconscious but I have a way to go to be healed of the wounds of the heart that I was trying to numb. ❤️☦️🙏🏻

[@OrthodoxTradition]

May God help you continue to resist evil! Hold on!

Glory to God Always, Father Demetrius want to know is archbishop Gregory part of the genuine orthodox church?

[@ServantofGod-zj3jd]

"Archbishop" Gregory of Colorado is a true schismatic. He is in no way canonical. Ironically, he has condemned everyone else! It is a classic case of delusion.

[@OrthodoxTradition]

Not at all.

[@OrthodoxIslands]

​@@ServantofGod-zj3jdcan you tell me more about archbishop gregory please thank you

[@seraphimwieber3893]

​@@OrthodoxIslandsVery briefly, he was a member of a group called HOCNA, at the HTM monastery in Boston. They were originally with the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad (ROCOR), but fell away into schism to cover up their elder's scandals. He started a skete in the 80s in Colorado. After this, he bounced around jurisdictions, and would immediately call everyone who he wasn't with heretics, schismatics, and moral degenerates. (Including those he just left, and the next ones he would go to.) Eventually, he ran out of people who would remain in communion with him, so he started his own synod, and made a bunch of bishops and priests. People always meme that there are more clergy than people in all of his churches. He has broken off of the Church of Christ. I understand that the word schismatic gets tossed around so much it no longer has meaning in the world of Orthodoxy. (Like Nazi in politics) But do your research on what the saints have taught about schism, and you will see that group has left the fold.

[@IsawCHRIST]

Greetings, ☦️I live in moutain please pray for me for i have no genuine orthodox church here. Fr. Demetrius what shall i do?

[@eddiedelisio]

Where are you?

[@OrthodoxTradition]

[@IsawCHRIST]

[@OrthodoxTradition]

I live near california san Bernardino moutains closer to big bear lake, I will try moving more up north please pray for me, hope i can help with building a monastery for us old orthodox in southern California. May God bless us all ☦️ @@OrthodoxTradition

[@MorningsWithTheo]

I was confused with the icon button. Can someone explain

[@OrthodoxTradition]

A person went into church, wearing an icon button on his shirt. The icon was of St. John of San Francisco. The bishop did not like St. John, it was before he was officially recognized a Saint, and so he was kicked out of the Church by the bishop. It wasn't until after the death of that bishop that St. John was officially proclaimed a Saint.

[@nikki-wh5cn]

Remember an angel told John not to worship him that he’s a servant of God just like the prophets and him and to only worship God! (Revelation 22:9)

[@godsaveus4380]

Just let the bishop do the teaching! Too many people have pride, and they want to teach, as if they know more than the genuine teachers appointed by God!

[@OrthodoxTradition]

Obviously. We're not sure what this refers to.

You can put all the relics in the garbage . Nothing is sacred on earth , no places , no artefacts , no churches or temples , nothing . The only thing that is sacred in our univers and the most hard to get , is : The Human Body ! The temple of God isn't in stones , but in You ! ... find Him and everything will be accomplished . You are alone in this proccess , start where you are , now , you need nothing . Feel the urge to find , the absolute necessity . And who knows , maybe you will find Yourself .
