The former atheist Frenchwoman and Saint Porphyrios.
The former atheist Frenchwoman and Saint Porphyrios.
A French historian, atheist and nihilist visited Elder Porphyrios at his Hermitage in Milesi, Attica. She did not expect, being a University Professor to learn anything great from a 2nd Grade graduate, but for the sake of her friends she agreed to go.
The Elder asked the two of them to talk without the presence of others or an interpreter, which caused the question of her friends who knew that the Frenchwoman did not speak Greek at all, nor did the Elder speak French.
The theological and existential discussion finally took place with the two of them alone, for quite some time.
The door opened and the atheist woman came out in tears, tears of repentance. When her friends asked her how she got along with the Elder, she replied:
"But he speaks fluent French."
The same happened with a German Doctor, with a Serb, with a Romanian, with an Irishman.
When his spiritual children asked him how he knew foreign languages while he was never taught them, he replied:
"I speak to them in Greek and the Holy Spirit interprets them in their minds and hearts"
This is the New Language of the Holy Spirit that Christ promised to His Disciples, the language of Paradise which was confused by pride in the Tower of Babel and from Pentecost returned by the Holy Spirit through the Church to All Saints of times.
With Saint Paisios too we have many such examples and with Russian Saints too.
The Holy Spirit, the Heavenly Fire with which the Fire of the Altar once lit on the Day of Pentecost is always in the Church and has been burning for twenty centuries now. It was never erased by human weaknesses and mistakes.
"And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever ".
Every other "new fire of spirit" which is advertised nowadays with characteristic conceit and arrogance as being authentic, genuine and unique on earth by heretics is foreign "Alien Fire and not Divine".
In the photo is the atheist French historian, Monk Magdalene in the Sinai desert, where she practiced asceticism afterwards, alone for 18 years in very difficult conditions, having renounced wealth, career, fame and useless philosophies of life.
She slept there in the Lord on 12 Dec 2013.
Saint Jerome confessor, doctor of the church - 342-420
who paint their cheeks with rouge and their eyelids with antimony, with, whose plastered faces, to white for human beings, look like idols
he opened a free school there, should Mary and joseph decide to return to Bethlehem they would have a place to stay
He told Paula after her daughters death, she now prays to the lord for you, and obtains for me the pardon of my sins
in the sixteenth century the great council of tent pronounced Jerome's vulgate the authentic authoritive Latin text of the catholic church

The inquisition
Disaster is upon us as in the times of Noah, Not by flood but by fire will the destruction come. An immense destroy nations for sinning before God.
All civil governments will have but one same plan which will be to abolish and do away with every religious principle, to make way for materialism, atheisms, occultism and vice of all kinds
In the year 1864 lucifer and large number of demons will be unloosed from hell. They will put an end to faith little by little, evil books will be abundant on earth

Monks of the west
solitude says a venerable ecclesiastic of the day "solitude is the mother country of the strong - silence is their prayer"
nowhere has the human race in its joys and sorrows found sympathies more living and productive than under the frock of a monk

Laurus, eugene vodolazkin
Animals have souls but the soul is kindred to their bodies and contained in their blood, mind you people did not eat animals until the flood, they spared their souls, for an animals soul dies with its body
What is a soul? Arseny asked.
It is what the lord breathes into a body, what distinguishes us from rocks and plants
Weep and pray o arseny and do not fear death, for death is just the bitterness of parting. It is also the joy of liberation
why are there no names on the graves
because they are already known to the lord
in 100 years no one will know who they belonged to
