Three words of advice about receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit

On the day of Pentecost, the Apostle Peter sets two conditions (Acts 2:38):

1) conversion

2) baptism

Many people have been baptized and confirmed. The Holy Spirit is with them but not in them. Why? Because they were not led to turn to God with all their hearts and to receive Jesus as their personal Lord and God and the only Saviour. As far as conversion is concerned, no one can be converted instead of you, be it your father, mother, godparents, priest or bishop. Conversion allows no substitute!

I WILL GIVE YOU A NEW SPIRIT

1) Read carefully the following verses from the New Testament:

Lk 11:11;    Jn 7:37;    1:33;    14:26;    15:26;    16:13;    16:23;
Lk 24:49;    Mk 16:17;    Acts 1:4-6;    2:1-18;    4:29-31;    8:4-8;    8:14-16;
Acts 9:17-19;    10:44;    19:1-6;    1Cor 12:1-12;    14:1-40;    Rom 8:26;    12:4-8

2) Asking for the Holy Spirit

Lk 11:9-13: So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” These are practical directions for us! And the result? “If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!” (v.13)

This is perhaps the only clearly expressed petition which is said to be answered exactly the way we ask. The Scripture tells us to ask for the gift of the Holy Spirit.

Patriarch Elijah’s message for the Feast of the Descent of the Holy Spirit

We heard in the Gospel that Jesus cried out: “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” Jesus was speaking about the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive. Notice the words: “…whom those believing in Him would receive.” So the condition for the receiving of the Holy Spirit is to believe in Jesus.

“He who believes in Me, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.”

God’s Word uses the word believe twice: he who believes and those believing. So it confirms doubly that the condition for us to receive the Holy Spirit is to believe in Jesus: “He who believes in Me…”. The condition is to believe in Him and in His Word given to us.

Chipping

The EU planned compulsory microchipping of children this year and microchipping of adults in 2017! The plan has been put off until a later time. What does the Word of God say about chipping?

“This evil man will come to do the work of Satan with counterfeit power and signs and miracles. He will use every kind of wicked deception to fool those who are on their way to destruction because they refuse to believe the truth that would save them. So God will send great deception upon them, and they will believe all these lies. Then they will be condemned for not believing the truth and for enjoying the evil they do.” (2Thes 2:9-12)

“The beast required everyone – great and small, rich and poor, slave and free – to be given a mark on the right hand or on the forehead. And no one could buy or sell anything without that mark, which was either the name of the beast or the number representing his name… His number is 666.” (Rev 13:16-18)

Lent

Every year at the end of the Great Lent we commemorate the death and resurrection of Christ. The Lenten period is the time of preparation when we need to stop and devote more time to God and our soul. Jesus said about the liberation of man from the evil spirit: “This kind of demon does not go out except by prayer and fasting.” (Mt 17)

Fasting can be physical or spiritual.

Spiritual fasting: We should abstain from useless and harmful information. It requires discipline of vision and thought. Our thoughts are influenced by the mass media, billboards, people we talk to who think only of earthly and vain things and do not think or speak about the most important things, such as death, God’s judgment and eternity.

There is not only a “negative” aspect of fasting – that you abstain from something, but also a “positive” one – that you receive information leading to the recovery of intellectual and spiritual life.

Plenary indulgence for the dead?

Lvov (Ukraine), 30 October 2013

To bishops, priests, religious

and believers of the Catholic Church

 

Every year between 1 and 8 November Roman Catholic believers used to obtain plenary indulgence for the souls in Purgatory. The Church has prescribed the following conditions: sacrament of penance, Holy Communion, visit to a cemetery, a prayer for the intentions of the Supreme Pontiff.

Currently the Church is under a God-imposed interdict, for which reason it is not even possible to obtain plenary indulgence! This is due to apostasy of the Catholic Church which reached the culminating point on 1 May 2011, the day of beatification of the apostate Pope John Paul II. The curse acc. Gal 1:8-9 fell on the Vatican and thus on the whole Catholic Church, specifically on all those who remain in unity with the present pseudo Pope.

Quotations from the Bulla of Paul IV: 6. “…if the Roman Pontiff, prior to his promotion or elevation, has fallen into some heresy, the promotion or elevation shall be null, void and worthless…” (cf. anathema against Card. Bergoglio (Francis I) by reason of heresies and syncretism declared on 15 September 2009, http://uogcc.org/en/letters/article/?article=1368, video: http://uogcc.org/en/video/index.php/article/.40/)

Ezekiel 36-37 – the word of prophecy

The word of prophecy spoken to Ezekiel in the Babylonian captivity is relevant to the current situation in Ukraine: “And I will sanctify My great name, which has been profaned.” (36:23) “Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you. … I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them. …you shall be My people, and I will be your God. … Then you will remember your evil ways and your deeds that were not good; and you will loathe yourselves in your own sight, for your iniquities and your abominations. … Then the nations which are left all around you shall know that I, the Lord, have rebuilt the ruined places and planted what was desolate. I, the Lord, have spoken it, and I will do it.” (v. 25-36)

Ex-Patriarch Kirill visits Moldova

Lvov (Ukraine), 13 September 2013

To Bishops of the Orthodox Church of Moldova

Your Excellencies,

the Prime Minister of Moldova and his supporters betrayed God and the people of Moldova. He pushed through amoral homosexual laws. As true shepherds, You, Bishops of Moldova, made a brave stand against that crime. Moldova was visited by the apostate Kirill who now holds the office of Patriarch invalidly. He met with the traitorous Prime Minister. Instead of condemning the crime and supporting the Orthodox faith, You, the Bishops, and the people, he hypocritically declared that he did not interfere in politics. In fact, his gesture revealed his unity of spirit with the treacherous Prime Minister and hence approval of his programme of destruction of both Christianity and the nation.

Kirill made a similar gesture in Astana where he manifested his unity with the spirit of Antichrist and thus betrayed Christ and the Church. By reason of that he fell under God’s curse – anathema – acc. Gal 1:8-9.

In a situation when You as Bishops fight for the nation, the apostate Kirill stabs You in the back!

Buddhism versus Christianity/Attachment to the promulgation of anathema against Bishop Theophan/

Lvov (Ukraine), 23 June 2013

 

Buddhism and Christianity are divided by insurmountable differences: Christianity believes in one God the Creator, who is a personal God. Christianity views man as a being that needs salvation and is incapable of self-salvation. By contrast Buddhism does not believe in God as the Creator and a personal God. Furthermore, it holds that man can be saved by himself. This salvation is said to be attained in so-called nirvana. But that’s a deceit.

Pagan idolatry worships animals as deities. But the First Commandment of the Decalogue forbids it: You shall not make for yourself a carved image – any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth (sacred animals – cow, bull, snake, dragon…); you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. (Deut 5:7-9) Pagans do not worship God but demons (cf. 1Cor 10:20).

Psychology of truth and psychology of lies (Part 3)

Lvov (Ukraine), 31 December 2011

 

Psychological struggle

Contemporary psychology is of paramount importance in the tactics of the spiritual battle and has become its driving force. In the past battles were fought over territories, which took a toll of physical lives. Today there is a struggle going on for every soul with the purpose of causing spiritual death on the particular territory. Physical self-destruction is then just the automatic consequence of spiritual death.

Psychology of truth and psychology of lies /Part 2/

Ukraine (Lvov), 30 December 2011

 

What is the root of modern pseudo psychology?

Pseudo psychology is built on the psychology of Sigmund Freud, who reduces man below the level of an animal by his theory about the libido. Freud’s follower C. G. Jung founded his psychology on the occult experience of spiritism. He derived inspiration from his spirit guide Philemon.

Psychology of truth and psychology of lies (Part 1)

Lvov, 29 December 2011

Psychology is the science about the soul (Greek: psyche = soul, logos = word, science). True psychology is to explain the true nature of the human soul. The basic truth is that the spiritual nature of man – the human soul (spirit) – is immortal, death does not put an end to it.

Head of the UGCC and homosexualism

Lvov, 13 November 2011

To the leadership of the UGCC


In his speech during a web-conference, Head of the UGCC S. Shevchuk condemned homosexuality whereby he provided an alibi for himself. He is well aware what legacy was left by Husar who had already made a breakthrough in the Church opinion on this matter by his approval of homosexualism. Husar then also hypocritically signed a declaration of the All-Ukrainian Council of Churches against homosexualism as an alibi; however, it no longer had any practical impact.

Obedience to people rather than to God

Lvov (Ukraine), 9 November 2011

 

In 1986, Pope John Paul II organized the first syncretistic meeting in Assisi. At that time, although it was not available to the public, much of the clergy was in opposition because they disagreed with the heretical step of the Pope. The event was deliberately explained to the public as an effort towards peace and no one could say that it was actually destruction of the Catholic faith. The year 1986 witnessed a breakthrough – demonism infiltrated the Church, whereafter every year the process of a change of the thinking in the Church went on through organization of other syncretistic meetings. At the same time, in the field of theology, the authority of the Scripture was degraded through historical-critical theology which called into question its Divine inspiration. Meanwhile, the process of questioning the Divinity of Christ and of all the fundamental truths of the faith proceeded.

God’s warning

Several hours before the opening ceremony of the spiritual Babylon and public apostasy of the Vatican from the apostolic teachings and 2000-year tradition, Italy was unexpectedly struck with floods which caused great material damage. They even took a toll of several lives. Unfortunately, no one was willing to openly admit that the tragedy was the fruit of the curse which the Vatican brought down on itself.



Ex cathedra statements by Pope Paul IV concerning heresies

(see Bulla Cum ex Apostolatus Officio)

On 1st May 2011, the Church has found herself in a sedes vacantis state. Pope Benedict XVI excommunicated himself from the Church by elevating to the altar of the Church the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of antichrist – through pseudo beatification. The culmination of this apostasy was preceded by gradual apostasy of the hierarchy and majority of theologians from the Gospel and apostolic teaching into heresy.
