On the Second Coming of Christ - Homily by St. Gregory Palamas

"If mere words, words adapted to our measure, can fill the soul of the prudent listener with trembling and awe, who will withstand when the reality is accomplished?" These divine words of our holy father St. Gregory Palamas beckon a response: what will we sacrifice for Christ and our fellow man? What life will be worth living, and are we able to live it? The grace of Christ is available to all and He stands ready to help us at the moment we call on Him in faith. The Cross shows us God's infinite love. The apocalypse is now. May we be faithful until the final judgment.

With the hype about the end times cerculating in some parts of the internent fulled by some christan content creators having the calm reading of well reasoned teachinf of the fathers of the Church is a blessing.
If you can find writings of other fathers on the topic it could well speek to many who are looking for answers but can only find pedlers of fear rather than repentance and hope.

I understand what you mean. I have on this channel readings from “Apostasy and Antichrist” which is very sober overview of the ends times. I also highly recommend the books by Elder Athanasios Mitilinaios on Revelation. They are very catechetical, sober, and applicable for our confused times.

which icon is this??

[@PhoebeK]

It is a rendering of the Last Judgement, by the shape it is one that is in a church possibly even a fresco. I saw several different versions when I was in Greece.

Revelation 19:11-15
11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
