What did the resurrected people see in the afterlife? (Fr. Athanasios Mytilinaios)

In this recording, Archimandrite Athanasios Mytilinaios (1927-2006), answers the question: "Why the dead raised by Christ did not tell us anything about the other life?” "No one can communicate in words what he saw. Note that Saintly men who were 'caught up to the third heaven,' just like St. Paul, could not say anything either. What they experienced cannot be said. The things Paul saw were uncreated. The human language is created. But what Paul saw was unable to be passed on because it was uncreated."

Please pray for my baby boy and myself. We came down with a very bad virus. It has been three weeks now. We ended up in a hospital last night. God bless you

Christ oh Healer of the Soul and of the Body have mercy and cure Your servants amen

There is a Heaven. Christ told the thief on the cross that they would be in Heaven that very day.

That story of Saint Lazarus is one my favorites!

It would be much nicer if there would be no preview at the beginning, if it would just start straight away.

[@АлександрАнисимов-э5п]

Спасибо.

☦️ Through the prayers of our Holy Father's LORD JESUS CHRIST OUR GOD have mercy on us and save us

It often differs depending on the beliefs or culture of the person, although similarities can be found also. The vast research of near death experiences and expertise testimonies from elders in different traditions must be taken into account. I sincerly hope you treat this subject with the non-partisan mind of a honorable scientist. It is a great topic, thank you.

Father Seraphim Rose, The Soul After Death has a very extensive section in his book about that.

Have you ever thought of the idea of your wrong? The Church quickly became corrupt shortly after the apostles died and Orthodox Church was separated from The Roman-Catholic church after disagreements of how we should be serving Jesus, and then Protestants also came from the Roman-Catholic church. So, what church came 1st?

[@stevekovacevich3011]

The Orthodox Church dates to Pentecost in the year 33 A.D. and is the original Church, the only one established by Christ and the apostles. Over the centuries many groups fell away from that Church--the gnostics, Macedonians, Arians, Monophysites, Roman Catholics, etc., but the Orthodox Church is Christendom's oldest Church. Also, the Church did not become corrupt after the Apostles were martyred. Various individuals and groups became corrupt and broke away from the Church, but the Church itself never became corrupt.

[@josephsaab7208]

The orthodox church did not stray from the catholic church. The Roman church schismed itself off through many small events leading up to 1054 when it excommunicated and was excommunicated by Constantinople

[@IndyColts1987]

So I guess because that Church was corrupted after the apostles death means the Bible they gave us all is also corrupted? lol The Church came first, it had to have. Otherwise the Bible has no weight to it. Look what "Me , the Bible and the Holy Spirit" got you. 40,000 protestant denominations. I guess there are 40,000 Holy Spirits 🧐
