Talk 83: The Importance of Reading the Lives of Saints When Dealing with the Heresies of Ecumenism and Covidism - Part 2

(MP3 Duration: 4hrs 51mins)

Note: The video for Talk 83 has been banned from YouTube due to “medical misinformation”. This has worked out for the better because it prompted us to upload all the talks on Rumble. We have also made them available in podcast format. You can now listen to the talks on iTunes, Spotify, or through your favourite podcasting app using RSS. Thank you, YouTube!

As we read in the lives of the saints, during periods of heresy God permits plagues, famines, earthquakes, floods, civil wars, invasions, etc., to occur as a means to bring Christians to repentance. The heresy of Ecumenism has been plaguing the Orthodox Church now for 100 years and we can say with certainty that the majority of Orthodox Churches have been infected with this disease. Consequently, because of this heresy, God has permitted many disasters to occur, not only in the Orthodox Church, but in the world.

Further to this, as often happens during periods of heresy, additional heresies arise. This is exactly what took place starting in 2020 when the heresy of Covidism manifested itself. As with Ecumenism, the majority of Orthodox bishops have submitted to this heresy, or have remained silent even though they know Covidism is contrary to Orthodoxy. Orthodox Christians throughout the world have had their faith shaken. This should not shock us or cause us to lose our souls because Christ Himself pre-warned us, saying:

Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?” (Luke 18:8)

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.” (Matthew 7:15)

Only a few Orthodox bishops during the last 100 years of Ecumenism - and now Covidism - have refused to submit to these vile heresies, and even fewer have openly condemned them. This, too, was foretold to us. Saint Paul the Apostle says:

For I know this, that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, and will not spare the flock. Also, from among yourselves men will rise up and distort the truth, in order to lure the disciples into following them.” (Acts 20:29-30)

Saint Paul also tells us that the reason God permits divisions in the Church is so that genuine Orthodox Christians can be clearly seen to have God dwelling within them. For God cannot dwell in those who are heretics (even if they are officially part of the canonical Orthodox Church).

In the first place, I hear that when you come together as a Church, there are divisions among you, and to some extent I believe it.No doubt there must be differences among you to show which of you have God’s approval.” (1 Corinthians 11:18-19)

In this talk, Father Kosmas, with much pain, reveals something that he has always believed but was reluctant to say until the right time. It has become apparent to him, through those enlightened by the Holy Spirit - the saints, grace-filled elders and right-believing clergy - that now is the right time to fully expose the abomination. What abomination? The betrayal of Orthodoxy by most of the Orthodox hierarchs, priests, and even monastics. Father Kosmas then presents soul-saving advice given by saints and grace-filled clergy and monastics of what to do during these difficult times when it has become apparent that many clergy are, not only failing to teach Orthodoxy to the faithful, but are openly and defiantly teaching heresy as wolves in sheep’s clothing.

The following questions are also discussed:

  • What is meant by, “Now the devil is on vacation, because his work has been taken over by the bishops”?
  • Should we consider cowardice to be a great sin?
  • What did Elder Justin Parvu of Romania mean when he said, “The time will come when you will be sold by your shepherds. They will watch you being ripped apart by the wild beasts and they will not come to your help”?
  • Why did the Mother of God refuse to enter the cell of a virtuous monk?
  • Why did the Orthodox clergy of previous communist countries defy the authorities during COVID lockdowns while those of Western countries did not?
  • Which saint said that “Priests are even higher than angels and kings”?
  • Is it true that the United Nations believe that pornography is fine for children?
  • What did Saint John of San Francisco mean when he said, “Do not tolerate any more foolishness or misguidance from priests or bishops. Do not turn a blind eye, for you will be co-responsible. The saints are forewarning you.”?

Other points covered in this talk include:

  • The meaning of the stench of heresy;
  • A wonderful example of what to do with regard to prayer when eating at the same table with those of another faith;
  • The “virtuous” monk who held a disgusting faith;
  • How Saint Paisios condemned those Orthodox who sympathised with the Monophysites;
  • How Elder Epiphanios Theodoropoulos said that it is blasphemy for archimandrites to be sad for not having been elected bishops;
  • How Elder Justin Parvu of Romania said “You cannot love without confession [of Faith]”;
  • How an Orthodox confessor of the Faith said that clergy who compromised during communist times need to publicly admit that they were wrong for compromising because the devil is the only winner in any compromise;
  • The shocking revelation of the incredibly large number of clergy in Orthodox Greece who do not believe in anything;
  • The prophesies concerning the clergy of the last times; and
  • How Metropolitan Augoustinos of Florina said that the clergy and the people are permitted, according to the Holy Canons, to disobey their bishops under certain circumstances.
