Holy Saint Paisios, grant me thy wisdom and save me from my pride, arrogance, and vain glory
Praying to saints is important, I know you aren’t thinking this but remember only his can do that.
Pray to the Lord or ask the saint for intersession. Your wording here is very open to misinterpretation.
Amen 🙏 ☦️🙏
@@zoejay Please don't educate people on how they should pray. We ask the Most Holy Theotokos to save us, think about that for a second.
@@zoejay I noticed your subscriptions, it’s all Orthodox, so you clearly belief in the faith, but are you a catechumen or something? We do this stuff all the time in akathists, have you ever prayed an akathist to the Theotokos? We ask her to have mercy on the patriarchs etc. idk why you think you’re an elder or something
How lovely and humble St. Paisios dared to 'slander' his own reputation (what amazing humility) to test the boy. I can't imagine why he would think to do that, but he did. And he himself was amazed at what the child in goodness seemed to do naturally.
I would love to know if he told the boy who he was.
He might have not told him..
But the boy benefitted greatly from from talking . St. Paisios in any case..
Honestly, even a saint like St. Paisios would find himself benefitted by the prayers of such a child.
I have been thinking about this for several days now..
☦💝📿💝☦
Beautiful lesson. Beautiful young man.. beautiful St. Paisios
Thank you! May God bless you!
Aμήν!
IMAGINE! A saint smokes, but why can’t I?
(If someone thinks it that way, it is never escaping hell) 😀
Smoking ain't good ❤
the elder was lying about his cigarette "addiction" to test the young boy
I do not blame him , why lying to him at the first place ?Why testing him?
@@Tanya-tb8ir The boy came for a blessing from the elder and he not knowing the man he was talking to is Paisios he asked where Paisios is, saint paisios tested him to see the boy's heart
@@user-mr4pf7vw5g Maybe my comments needs rereading
hello pls how do i remember if i commited blasphemy or how to remember if u commited a sin that was long time ago
Prayer with intention to make your sins known will lead to the sins to start being revealed to you
Make sure you totally trust the process and have no doubt. God will not abandon those who look for Him
I'm Just a layman Christian btw. But i love Jesus so much, i always fail to reciprocate his love
The kindness of God will lead you to repentance.
Repent of all sins known and unknown!
Can i ask A Question In The Past I Laughed at jokes about Jesus And Even Tho I Knew Blasphemy I Believe In The Past That it's Okay To Make Jokes about God And Not Believe It's Not Okay To Make Jokes About God But now I Realized It's Not Okay can That Can Be forgiven?. i Have Religious Ocd And intrusive Thoughts Pls Help
Anything can be forgiven, my friend if you sincerely repent.
I have OCD too brother. God is mercy itself. He will forgive you if you repent and confess every single time he will forgive you.
31:And so I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. 32:Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.
That would be the Pharisees saying that Jesus was doing his miracles through demons. They weren’t joking. They were seriously saying that God was evil and a devil. Joking about God is not that. Joking about God is blasphemy though, we can’t mock God ever.
@@fritzbarbour5402 Yes but if u read the verse, Anyone who speaks a word against the son of man will be forgiven in this age and the one to come
It's always discomforting for me when I hear tales of a saint deceiving someone, even if only temporarily. I would like to hear the reasoning for doing such things, honestly. Perhaps I am being scrupulous, but I'm curious about the purpose nonetheless.
I believe, in this case, it was an attempt to avoid pride/vainglory, and maybe preventing the kid from thinking the blessings come from him. If he gave himself a bad name, he would quell people's enthusiasm toward him and look for someone else. Quelling his own pride and keeping himself from taking glory and attention away from God. After all, it's not like his prayers or blessings absolutely must be done in a particular manner in order for them to work. He would still be able to pray for the kid.
1. is this lie to a boy is not a sin?
2. 1.47 " whatever I told him, he accepted w good thoughts". ACCEPTED? did the boy accept or reject ( the made-up slander) with good thoughts as the matter of fact?
3. what is the morale of the story? is it when always believe a husband/good friend won't betray/cheat when was told by other who witnessed ?
The moral of the story is to have positive thoughts, and avoid judgment.
