Fr. Heers is a lucid, clear and solid teacher. Thanks for posting.

[@HaMashiachSaves]

We will live forever. Just not in the company of demons 😃

[@emil3709]

Good information. Transhumanism is based on the same failed thinking as humanism. Salvation comes only through Christ not through science.

[@Cavirex]

You can actually trace this blight all the way back to ancient Egypt (and of course further back to the Tower of Babel and, even prior, to the Garden of Eden). They joined the Israelites during the Exodus (the Hebrew word for Egyptian converts is Erev Rav), and some still kept their abominable practices (especially sun worship, which is worship of the "lightbringer", happening in secret within the Temple, as shown to Ezekiel) and these flowed into gnosticism. Then, they went dormant until the crusades, and that's when the templars come in. Those guys found Solomon's Temple, and from there they spread out building gothic cathedrals, which actually have a lot in common with mosques (sufism also having many similitudes to masonry) and Egyptian monuments, spreading their humanist and occult ideas of metempsychosis, which eventually gave rise to kaballah and the first lodges. The rest is history.

[@aide-toietlecieltaidera3724]

Secularism, Marxism, National Socialism, Nihilism, woke-ism all have one and the same root which remains hidden to most: Gnosticism. The age-old archenemy of Christianity. If you care check on Prof. Eric Voegelin, I think James Lindsay, the Collins Twins Philip and Paul and their talk on Gnosticism and Darwinism f. ex. Transhumanism or the abolishment of humans is just the last step to becoming God or playing God. Apotheosis or self-deification is the core doctrine of Gnosticism.

@@aide-toietlecieltaidera3724 indeed. Many kings and heroes of old claimed "divine" heritage. This is the root of theories of racial superiority, which eventually found full expression in darwinism, the rise of 19th century nationalism (which eventually led to the nazis and fascists) and malthusian eugenics. Population control (as detailed in the Georgia Guidestones) and abortionism (in particular Planned Parenthood, which alone has exterminated more blacks than slavery, persecutions and wars combined based on Sanger's wretched ideology) all spring, as your comment rightfully pointed out, from the idea that there are a "chosen few" who deserve to live, based on purely incidental or frivolous factors, such as genetics or knowledge.

@@Cavirex great read. Always happy to see someone well-informed and well-read putting the puzzle together

[@catherinecarter8987]

Absolutely Emil

[@yukyukyuk1335]

I turn to Fr. Trenham for his amusing quirkiness, to Fr. Spyridon for his simplicity, and to Fr. Heers for his solidity. Sincere thanks to you all.

[@FirstnameLastname-py3bc]

Amen

[@starstray4326]

Yep same, I love all of them but Fr Peters is my favorite is terms of how he holds his ground and doesn’t compromise with Luther theology or Roman Catholicism. They all have a foundation of rock from Christ but I see peters with this a lot and I appreciate it.

[@droppeddogs]

During those days men will seek death, but will not find it; they will long to die, but death will elude them

[@zoejay]

Father Heers is the best.

[@coldjello8436]

Algorithm boost.

[@MrBrimbles]

"Transhumanism" is an attempt to usurp the creative powers of God. It's Babel all over again, an attempt by man to become his own God.

[@soulfulplaya5508]

Thank you father bless you for talking about this evil against God and his children I hope and pray people open their eyes and open their ears to the truth and truly see where our world is heading before it's too late,our faith will be tested to the limit.. Godbless World....

[@BrotherLaymanPaul]

Gnosticism: all resurrection, no crucifixion 🙄

[@jorinter]

Good night father in a previous video you spoke about exorcism prayers, could you please tell me where can I learn those prayers 🙏, I live in Venezuela and due to health and work issues it's not possible for me at the moment to attend and orthodox church Which by the way are very rare in my country and some of them are not even ecumenical

[@OrthodoxEthos]

The exorcism prayers are to be read by the priest over those who are either coming to the faith and preparing for baptism, or are baptized, but suffering from demonic possession or attack. You must find an Orthodox priest.

[@jorinter]

@@OrthodoxEthos understood father, thank you for your guidance 🙏🙏🙏

[@jorinter]

Understood father thank you for your help 🙏🙏🙏

[@SeemaSharma-ub5zl]

अच्छा बताया है लेकिन कम समझ आया क्योंकि यह इंग्लिश में है यह जानकारी हिंदी में मिल सकती है क्या

[@sunriseschubert4391]

In a way is good that I haven't brought children into this wicked world. Is so disgusting now.

[@droppeddogs]

[@rightfullgamer]

God wants us to have children. The devil wants you to not multiply. It's raising your children right, that's the way we have carried orthodoxy to the present day.

[@CaseyJohn-ki8eo]

If you don't because of what they are doing... They have defeated you. They want your sterile, on birth control, turned into a monster("transgendered") and aborting any child that gets through. They believe in Utopia (" no place") and they believe this Utopia will have 1/50th the population. Be fruitful and multiply. Find a good woman that loves Christ more than you and it will be blessed.

[@SunnyAquamarine2]

Let those who think they're working against God continue in their designated time. God will be only too happy to let them be stuck in the eternal hell of a computer that can only do what it's told to do by the monkey at the keyboard. Plus, I would think that y'all would be able to discern the living and active Spirit of God in the letters AI and elon musk's "neural lace" not to mention "the cloud" - idk if they're aware of who created, owns, and rules the "AlphaBet" but surely y'all do, right? Also, perhaps y'all can tell me which Bible verses tell us that we have to suffer (however you may define that) in order to experience anastasis? And then perhaps you'll be gracious enough to explain to me why, then, does God clearly tell us in Revelation 21:4 that there shall be no more death or suffering? Will you admit that you believe Jesus Christ will come again? Will you admit that he clearly tells us in Revelation 3 that he will have a new name? God is already well aware of what ekklesia means, and again, Revelation 21:22 is clear that there is no church or temple. Will you admit that these things indicate that neither you nor anybody else, but God alone has the power, authority, throne, and knowledge of all things, especially his Kingdom?
