I believe after many years of prayer; I am still at the bottom step of the ladder. Please pray for me because I want to attain higher prayer but my sins and negligences keep getting in the way. May Paradise consume us.

[@maxbarnard7165]

@harman.17 Bhaiya, elder cleopa is an orthodox saint. It is not the same as the roman catholic church. I think you will make some progress if you were entered into the true church.

[@valentinzota8835]

All you need to do is Fast for minimum 3 days without food, only water...then go pray, you will feel the wormth the elder is talking about...I've felt it, it's true.

[@nickkerinklio8239]

@@valentinzota8835not necessarily going to happen that way for everyone. And we need our spiritual fathers blessing before doing a big fast

Gotta pause for a moment, this man as about to cut right to the core of me...

[@stefaniesean]

It is like seeing one of the apostles.

Next to elder Cleopa is the Metropolitan from Prespa and Pelagonija diocese His eminence Petar, Metropolitan from the Macedonian Orthodox church - Ohrid Archbishopic

[@josephmwangingure3259]

I love orthodox spirituality am ever left wondering what should I do attain high prayers

[@LeeApJohn-ry7pd]

To say I'm extremely discouraged after watching this is an understatement.

[@Nathan00at78Uuiu]

no don't be. He said as long as you desire to go up is enough for paradise. Don't worry about being the one in 10,000 or the one in many generations, just focus on making that your life's goal to ascend closer to God and let your falling short keep you humble. Besides, to actually have this prayer comes with a huge huge responsibility and strict judgment if you fall from such a height. This is an encouraging word. Good strength to you!

[@seta2382]

Thank you

[@LeeApJohn-ry7pd]

@@Nathan00at78Uuiu Well, I'll probably start again tomorrow. Right now I feel like I've been slapped in the face. As far as aspirations for progressing, that's over.

[@eli.sakmar]

@@LeeApJohn-ry7pd5:39 keep up the good fight. We need to humble ourselves, prayer is not always for our selves, but for the glory of God. We should strive to always do better, and see our selves always as unworthy servants.

[@isni261]

@LeeApJohn-ry7pd I had huge temptations and when I was 24 it was at the maximum. It was so bad that my body was shaking all day long. However I begann to go to church and to fast. I have read the holly fathers and he said, repeat the Jesus prayer constantly, don't stop a second. Afther six months (and praying without stopping a moment) I have visited mounth athos for the first time. On the third day five minutes before finishing the liturgy, my mind was going inside of me and became one with my heart, since then it has never stopped, whatever I'm doing the prayer is in my heart, since about nine years. Even the prayer is not stopping in my heart, I don't feel the grace anytime, only when the spirit is humble, when you have just one bad (egoistic) tought, youre losing the warmly grace of God. nothing gives the prayer more strenght than humility. I am seeking just for Christs humility, which gives you the biggest joy, since humility gives endlessly love for everybody, tears and the feeling of salvation allready on earth. If you want to learn about the Jesus prayer, 'i think' there is maybe no better place then the St. Anthony's monastery in Arizona! Greeting from Serbia and please pray for me.

[@Igregorio]

If I'm not wrong, he is the actual Metropolite of Moldavia, Theophan.

[@ICONFESSONEBAPTISM]

@@Igregorio Good people Saint paisius vel. said the entire Moldavian Church has always done proper baptism of converts and never fell to the innovation of accepting heterodox "baptism"

[@Igregorio]

@ICONFESSONEBAPTISM I was referring to Moldavia as a region in the east of Romania, therefore under the jurisdiction of Romanian Orthodox Church. God bless!

"Jesus" means "Jehovah is salvation". This is Jesus' prayer and Jehovah's answer, John 12: 28: "Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again." The name of Jehovah is glorified and will be glorified! :-) A lot of believers await for the God's Judgment and do hate His witnesses... "So, you're stating that you ain't prostitute, but the faithful wife of anonymous trinity of the Husband? I'm so sorry about that unfortunate misunderstanding, ma'am..." The God sees and remembers everything then there will be the Judgment. Exodus 20: 14: "Thou shalt not commit adultery." Here is a Christ's question, Mathew 15: 3: "But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?" Malachi 2: 1-4: "And now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you. If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith Jehovah of hosts, then will I send the curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings; yea, I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart. Behold, I will rebuke your seed, and will spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your feasts; and ye shall be taken away with it. And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant may be with Levi, saith Jehovah of hosts." (ASV) A women say "the Husband has no name". Another ones say "the Husband has many names". Some of women "love the Husband in all his manifestations" like: neighbour, taxi driver, coworker, and so forth. Some women in a Husband-fearing way call him "H-D"... But, all of those prostitutes say "the Husband is the only". Their prostitution has created another women saying "there is no Husband at all". Then they even talk about "trinity of the Husband" and they are not against "the Son taking the Husband's place". In the same way religious prostitutes try to hide their disgusting fornication with different gods. Furthermore, a correct pronunciation of the Name is unknown now. This is the “loyalty” of traitors! Here is the God's word spoken through Moses, Deuteronomy 11: 16-17: "Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them; And then the LORD's wrath be kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and lest ye perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD giveth you." So, the God says there are other gods, but blind leaders of blind lead people into trap. Names of an idols/false gods are well known: Zeus, Rempha/Chiun, Aurora, Baal, Moloch, and many others. "Jesus" means "Jehovah is salvation". This is the name of Christ real christians are hated for. "HalleluJah" means "Praze Jah" (Jehovah). Psalm 83: 18: "That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth." (KJV) The problem is Devil runs the world. He is liar and murderer. This is the reason why liars feel so good while righteous people are persecuted. That's why we've got the Gospel about the God's kingdom. Jehovah would put everything in order. He has anointed the king, Jesus Christ. The dead will be resurected and we'll meet our beloved ones again! :-)
