    This sermon is at the heart of what I need to digest at this stage of my life. God puts us into bad circumstances because of our sins. Let’s repent.

    I can only speak for Americans because that’s where I live. We allowed them to take God out of schools/the 10 commandments from the courtrooms/Alphabet cult to infiltrate the church/pastors/teachers/preachers to speak sermons that tickle the ears/refusal to preach on sin.
    America has no idea how much mourning is coming.
    Perhaps all this must come to pass because that’s when people turn to Jesus when things are bad.
    Stay faithful til the end.

    May the most just, most high, and most amiable will of God be done, praised and eternally exalted in all things. Amen. The will of God is holy and perfect. (My bible copy has 100 verses for Daniel Chapter 3, but many translations have cut the second part of that prayer out altogether.)

  • @AlexP-it1hn
    @AlexP-it1hn 10 месяцев назад

    Master, bless! Why do I waver so much? My fear and pride are insidious, I self justify and repent and just continue to self justify? My passions are so deeply rooted and crafty that I seem to think I'm somehow justified by all of the bad fruit I've bore. It's like falling into a sleep, I just end up riding out a passion, and end up not fasting, praying, giving... Anything good. Just eating and ruminating and self pity abounds. I'm sick, Geronda, and more than ever I am in need of spiritual healing. Please forgive me, I've offended and transgressed many and so many times. I've lied, cheated, lusted, drank and ranted so many times I've lost count. This horrible feeling of regret, knowing I could have done better looms over me like a dark cloud ready to strike lightning. How do I fend off my fears, doubts, impulses and especially pride? It feels like I've not even begun my repentant life, and know that God is good and trust in Him, and am grateful for all the bad and good in my life... Why am I so ungrateful? I don't ever want to take life for granted again. I'm a complete mockery. God forgive me!

    • @AlexP-it1hn
      @AlexP-it1hn 10 месяцев назад

      I've affected so many lives in such a profoundly negative way. I'm at fault, I've transgressed God's law countless times. I'm a bad tree, God please have mercy and guide me to repentance, true repentance. I'm tired not because of trying to do the right thing, but the lack of doing the right thing. God save my wretched soul from eternal damnation, though I am truly worthy to be damned, please be merciful to me, the worst hypocritical sinner. Please be safe everyone, please Lord Jesus Christ save us!

    • @AlexP-it1hn
      @AlexP-it1hn 10 месяцев назад

      I pray to be forgiven. I pray that love and peace may abound. I pray, Lord Jesus Christ, that we are all safe from the evil one! Please protect my soul from temptations from the left and the right, so things may somehow be easier for others, despite all of the chaos I've unwittingly and wittingly caused.
      Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on us all.
      Thank you for your sermon, Geronda, your words are like drops of water on my tongue while the flames around me seek to burn me utterly away. Truly...
      In Christ,
      Alexandros

    We always GET the rulers that we DESERVE because of our sins. I practice the devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus twice daily with prayers in front of His Holy Face and then I clean His Face with a clean, white cotton handkerchief. If anyone is interested in doing this for reparations of atheism, sacrilege of God's Holy Days and especially taking God's name in vane - you are most welcome. Best book to start:
    "The Golden Arrow - The Revelations of Sr. Mary of St. Peter."
    God Bless!!!

    Is the life of a Christian a battle with every action he or she partakes in? I have a heavy heart for I know my wretched soul is fit for the lake of fire and brimstone. I know Christ is truth and the only way and I truly believe that, yet I can not feel that God wants to forgive me. Oh hear my laments for I am tormented by my own existence.

    Often there are claims from the church that people are guilty. Ortodox Serbs at ww2 were believers,they lived traditional life at villages but 700 000 were brutally killed and massacred by catholic istashas.jSo no one can tell that main reason is cause we abandoned God and faith.
