My wife really loves this story, it's so beautiful and surely reveals the true nature of God, it is the whole story of why He sent His only Son, to redeem us.
Kyrie eleison Kyrie eleison Kyrie eleison. Xristos anesti xristos anesti xristos anesti. Very movingly explained, Father. Wish we could visit your church, we don't even have a church anywhere near us here. God bless you. 🙏☦️💙💖💖💖💖

If we read John 6, 65 with atention we will be able to understand the entire Bible at once...God is clear and simple to a pure open heart.

[josephjude]

It is great because Christ did just the same thing. Because it is quality over quantity. Let your yes be yes and your no be no.

[franciscafazzo]

[franciscafazzo]

Reformed tradition usually depicts a merciless god often who has only selected a few people to be saved and the rest bound for hell just because He chose that before hand; a god who punishes people with rape, murder, disease and other evils as His eternal decree. Once I read how the early Gnostics viewed god and the apparent similarities between reformed tradition I knew that the Protestant reformation was heresy; Calvinists and Lutherans have Scriptures to “back up” these views but so have other heretics throughout the centuries. We must understand the faith through the Church otherwise we will be led to embrace our own personal opinions outside the bounds of the Christian revelation

[rabbirubiel]

Yes God is only love
Matthew 25:46 says, wicked will be casted in to everlasting torment!!.
Is that torment eternal or for an age.?
What's is your opinion?

[bobby]

Father, what writings of the Holy Fathers do you recommend for helping to understand the Old Testament? I definitely see how certain churches come to the conclusion of a wrathful God simply due to the language and descriptions used. I would very much like some guidance along the way. Thank you and God bless you!

[guscostakispaoadopoulos]

Well said. Now at f only your Christian reformers who number in the thousands can put aside their pride, Sola scriptura, and their lack a f reverence for our most holy Theotokos and learn that prior to Martin Luther the truth was already there from the one catholic and apostolic church and the work of the 7 ecumenical councils.
