BCP: An appeal to American Catholics, priests, and above all, bishops (video)

  The basic condition of our salvation is repentance. Jesus warns us, “Unless you repent, you will all perish.” He says at the beginning of the gospel, “Repent, and believe in the gospel!”What does it mean for modern-day American Catholics to repent? It means to change the way of thinking! To turn away from the false thinking of the spirit of the world and adopt the mind of Christ. To stop blindly believing the lies of the mass media, and believe in the gospel of Christ and the real truths.

"I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet ... I have set you an example."

Reflection on Jn 13:14-15

At the Last Supper, Jesus gave the apostles an example of deep humility. He did not act as one who is to be served, but as one who himself serves. He washed the apostles’ feet. This was a task performed by slaves. We know how much this shocked the apostles. The apostle Peter, in particular, resisted strongly. In the end, however, he obeyed.   Jesus says: “Learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart.” It is also possible, from time to time in small communities – perhaps once a year, to make such a gesture, where brothers wash one another’s feet. Some non-Catholics even practise this more often. Washing another brother’s feet, and also allowing one’s own feet to be washed, is a gesture of humility, especially when a person does it sincerely, with awareness of their own guilt, which they may not have recognized for a long time.

"My brothers, do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh."

What is true freedom in Christ? It does not mean casting aside God’s laws and commandments, allowing the proud ego to indulge its unrestrained bodily desires and commit evil without remorse. Human freedom does not consist in the inviolability of the ego, which, in its pride, wants to have the final say, even over God’s word. This would be false freedom, leading to destruction. Freedom in Christ means that a person accepts the path of truth – that is, repentance – and denies himself, his own pride. He is aware of the law of the grain of wheat, which must die in order for new life to come. He thus fully recognizes the reality that the pride of our ego – untouchable and easily offended – must be called by its true name. He is conscious of this spiritual poison within the human heart, within himself, from which all wars and crimes arise and which is also the cause of eternal condemnation. On the throne of our soul sits the proud ego. It must be cast down! 

Jesus and I, together! Never more alone! (+german version)

Each day has enough trouble of its own, but I need to give it to the Lord. Don’t let it worry me, and if I must carry it, so let me carry it together with Jesus – Jesus and I. Only one thing is needed: together – Jesus and you!!! Jesus and I, together! Never more alone! We need to try it in practice not just every day but a number of times a day. And not just for one or two days but until death.

After Christmas Thoughts from Patriarch Elijah

He is born to us...

Holiness consists in the fact that we stand in the light every day and repent immediately of our self-will, stubbornness or pride which rebels against God. We need to become aware of our sins which we have committed in our life, to bow our head and to confess: “Lord, I have done this and this, and now I have rebelled against You again…” In this way, we immediately bring the spirit of pride to light, so it flees very quickly and we receive peace and light for the next steps. All rebellion, self-pity… must be nailed to the cross daily, at all times. Without this it is not possible to truly follow Christ and to be delivered from sin. Only then will God’s Word be true in our life: “Christ lives in me.”

To you is born this day the Saviour, who is Christ the Lord!

At Christmas, we commemorate the coming of Christ into this world. He was born as a defenceless Child for our sake. Let us realize the great joy which the Word of God brings us: “To you is born this day the Saviour, who is Christ the Lord!” (Lk 2:11) This day and to me is born the Saviour! This day and to you is born the Saviour! Christ wants to be born in us too, and through us He wants to bear witness to the world. Why? So that people may receive forgiveness of sins and be saved. It is written in the Gospel: “He will save His people from their sins.” Jesus is the Head of the Mystical Body – the Church. We are His members, and He wants us to bear witness in these times and to be ready even to suffer for this testimony. He saved us through His suffering, through His Blood, through His sacrifice on the cross.

"Be very careful, then, how you live,  ... redeeming the time, because the days are evil."

This word of life is highly topical at the present time. Our times are truly apocalyptic. The world is held under Satan’s totalitarian dictatorship. This spirit of lies and death, operating under the name New World Order, in reality conceals depopulation or genocide agenda. The agenda is implemented through earthly demons incarnate, the architects of death, criminals against humanity, members of Masonic lodges, who are owners of the largest banks and control the entire world, holding it in their grip. What should we do, being seemingly powerless? God’s Word gives the answer: We should be careful, very careful, how we live. Otherwise, we will waste this time which God has given us. We will waste it to our own detriment and to the detriment of those for whom we could have been instruments of the grace of salvation. Let us be fully aware of this! Let us not waste time by sitting aimlessly on the internet, or worse, glued to our smartphones. That is squandering time – throwing it away. Let us not waste this time on empty talk, but use it above all to speak with God in prayer: about ourselves and about the souls God has entrusted to us. We need God’s light, God’s wisdom, and God’s help.

Message to the people of America: Repentance is necessary! It can prevent global disaster! (video)

  Dear Catholics, dear Christians of the United States of America, not in my own name, but in the authority of God, I wish to call you to true repentance! In its essence, this means a change of mind joined with turning away from the spirit of the world and accepting the Spirit of Christ. He then gives the mind of the Gospel, that is, faith in the Gospel.

Our Lady of Fatima said: “If Russia is converted, there will be no global catastrophe.” How is this conversion to happen? Russia must also begin to keep holy the Day of Christ’s Resurrection. In Russia, the largest Church is the Orthodox Church. Therefore, it is the Orthodox bishops, priests, and monks who must first undergo conversion. Then the faithful will follow. This is a task that lies before the Russian nation, alongside other significant political measures needed to curb the influence of the ravening apocalyptic beast that has already programmed in every detail the self-destruction of Russia, America and seven billion people in pursuit of the so-called ‘golden billion’. Therefore, we should remember in a brief prayer both the conversion of Russia and our own personal conversion. This means having the courage for radical humility, not taking offence when someone points out our faults or highlights our negative character traits. We must learn to grow in humility, and start with ourselves. Only through humility can we overcome the devil; otherwise, we cannot prevail. The gift of humility must be sought in prayer and practised with patience – that is, through self-discipline and self-denial. This is the way Jesus taught us: “Learn from Me, for I am humble in heart…”

What is pure love

To deny yourself, to abandon yourself for the sake of Jesus – this is pure love. In Him is eternal life. However, people cling to deceit, philosophies, doctrines and all kinds of –isms which mislead us. We must put our faith in Jesus and His Gospel. This is plain wisdom which leads us to eternal life.
