My Comments & why I share this inspiring video:

SOME THOUGHTS On THE WEEK OF THE RETURN OF THE PRODIGAL SON:

I am not sharing this video of this tremendous praiseworthy Orthodox Christian inspired work of temporal and spiritual mercy, being undertaken  for impoverished and oppressed Central American Guatemalan Mayan Indian people, in order to advertise this multi-leveled large project so that viewers of this video will necessarily support this particular work, but as an inspiration — an example  to us all: to “GO AND DO LIKEWISE!” to remember what Christ commands of us all, we who often proudly claim to be “Christians”: ”IF YOU LOVE ME, KEEP!.. MY COMANDMENTS!” and “LOVE ONE ANOTHER, AS.. I… HAVE LOVED YOU!”

And, from the saints: “In the next world, at our judgement, all that we will.. have… there, is what we… gave away/sacrificed … here!” — and “I will have MERCY!... and… not!... judgement!”: what dictum, WE!... Christians… are to follow, in all of our dealings with our fellow mankind… and with all of God’s creatures.

“We must be hard on ourselves, but easy on others!”

Retired Reader Daniel Everiss in Oregon

 

And from the Holy Fathers: “When we stop working on seeing and correcting  our own sins and faults, then the devil will put into our idle minds another new even more busy work: finding and trying to expose and correct the faults and sins of… others!”

 

 Matthew 25:31-40

“When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory. All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.

“Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, "I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

“Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

“The King will reply, ‘I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did it for me.”

Another parting thought:

“I cried for myself because I had no shoes, untill I saw someone who had no feet!”

AND for those of us who only can PRAY for others and not be able to give them money or material or direct physical help:  Let us PRAY fervently and often and with tears for them! and invoke the SAINTS also to help and to pray for them, to Christ.

Russian TV Propaganda Sets Up Pretext for Invasion

Now we have a PRETEXT/EXCUSE, that Putin WILL invade Ukraine!: his propaganda machine tells us, that Putin's military will come to "save civilian Russians living in the Donbass region from Ukrainians torturing and killing them": PUTIN THE HERO!-??

My brief comment:

First of all, let me declare, that WE ALL MUST NOW PRAY STRONGLY, DAY AND NIGHT, THAT ALMIGHTY GOD…. STOP/INTERDICT MADMAN POWER DRUNK VLADIMIR PUTIN from his wicked plans! That is our only hope of stopping him…. both from his planned destruction of Ukraine, but also to STOP WORLD  WAR III!

“With God, all things are possible!”, but “Without God, we can do nothing!”

Humans efforts will not stop this monster.

If US President Donald Trump were in the White House, this could not happen.

But we have there, instead of locked in a mental ward or an old age home-where he should be now,  an imbicilic half-brain dead obedient hand-puppet of the Global Left/American Marxist Democrat Party apparatus,  as our non-legally elected illegitimate President and “Commander In Chief” of our US government and military.  None of our US international enemies are afraid of Joe Biden, NONE!...and certainly not the weak willed NATO European nations, and also… especially NOT tyrant bloodthirsty “Sincere Orthodox Christian” and “The Protector Of All Orthodox Christians Worldwide”, admirer of mass murderer Joseph Stalin,  THE BUTCHER OF THE RUSSIAN PEOPLE, and his methods, - VLADIMIR V. PUTIN, champion of his neo-soviet “Russian World” …. who most certainly has to be… A… prototype or  …A… forerunner of The Antichrist.

So now, we will see the mass suffering and deaths and destruction of countless lives and of their homes and cities,  of ORTHODOX CHRISTIANS and many other human beings in Ukraine…. ALL MADE IN THE HOLY IMAGE OF GOD- AND- FOR WHOM CHRIST DIED!

AND THIS WAR WILL SPILL OVER INTO ALL OF EUROPE AND BEYOND! Red China will also attack now too.

Thus, we will  soon witness the beginning of the end of civilization as we now perceive it.

World War III is being set in motion.

This will have to set off an exchange of nuclear weapons, and who then will survive? Or what may be the level of the few survivor’s existence?: – Stone Age conditions in caves?

Such is the dark true reality of our godless,  “modern, progressive new world order”.

Retired Psalm-Reader Daniel Everiss, in prayer and daily repentance…. who only knows what the birds of the air whisper to me…. and the stones of the field proclaim.

“EVEN-SO, COME QUICKLY LORD JESUS!~ COME QUICKLY!”

*And to me an interesting other question: Why is it that Putin chooses to do his invasions and pillaging and  murdering and destructions, when we Orthodox Christians are in or will shortly be in our MOST HOLY TIMES OF THE YEAR?... as we are now in the preparatory days leading up to the Great Lent?... THE VERY HOLY SEASON WHEN WE ALL ARE …in tears and groanings of our hearts… DAILY!... REPENTING OF OUR SINS AGAINST GOD AND OUR FELLOW MANKIND!!!... before we enter Holy Week, and go with Our Saviour to His Ever-Memorable and Saving Passion and Death on His Cross, and then to RISE WITH HIM ON GLORIOUS RESURRECTION MORNING!... WHY??? such desecration of what is holy?, and by a man who claims to be: “The Protector Of All Orthodox Christians Everywhere”….. WHY???

Truly, those who will do such terrible evils in such holy times, are not of God, but are workers of SATAN, as clearly is Vladimir V. Putin, who like The Antichrist, is pretending to be all-good/all-holy, but whose actions are those of THE DEVIL BELLZEBUB!-LUCIFER, The Destroyer of Worlds, The Enemy of God and of All Mankind.

And no doubt, Putin’s captive pseudo-‘church’, The Stalin-founded in 1943 uncanonical & graceless ‘Moscow Patriarchate’, will CONTINUE to bless all of these war-mongering dreadful things Putin is doing, as if to proclaim, “God blesses him!”-???...GOD NEVER BLESSES SIN OR EVIL!

SAVE US O LORD JESUS!

Russian TV Propaganda Sets Up Pretext for Invasion

Russian journalist/propagandist Dmitry Kiselyov (Sputnik via AP)

By Jack Gournell    |   Monday, 14 February 2022 04:32 PM

Russian state television on Monday aired new propaganda that was seen as justification of an imminent invasion of Ukraine, The Daily Mail reports.

Popular news host and state propagandist Dmitry Kiselyov on his Sunday show said that Ukrainian nationalists are set to massacre Russians living in the eastern part of the nation.

The White House has warned an invasion could come as early as Wednesday, and in what could be a final step in that direction Kiselyov's program provided cover, albeit through unsubstantiated claims that Ukraine has "tortured and savagely killed" thousands of civilians in the Donbass region, according to the Mail.

Kiselyov is popularly known as "Putin's mouthpiece," making it likely that his segment, titled "They are Preparing to Kill," had the Kremlin's stamp of approval.

The piece included an interview with a separatist fighter claiming that Ukrainian nationalists have said they will "kill and butcher you all, and hang your children on wires."

The same propaganda method was used by Russia leading up to its previous invasion of Ukraine in 2014. Then, the Kremlin claimed to be "protecting" ethnic Russians who live in the country.

Up to 148,000 Russian troops are believed to be surrounding Ukraine on three sides along with tanks and artillery.

Nevertheless, Russia held the door open Monday to further talks on resolving its standoff with the West and said some of its military drills were ending, signaling a possible easing of the crisis.

As Western intelligence officials warned Wednesday could mark the start of an invasion, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced on national television the day would be marked as "Unity Day."

While the comments from President Vladimir Putin and his foreign and defense ministers seemed to offer hope of a de-escalation, the Pentagon said Russian forces on the border with Ukraine were still growing.

"It is a distinct possibility, perhaps more real than ever before, that Russia may decide to proceed with military action, with new Russian forces continuing to arrive at the Ukrainian border," U.S. State Department spokesman Ned Price told reporters Monday.

But Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said they still did not believe Moscow had made a final decision on whether to invade.

During a carefully choreographed meeting with Putin, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said "there is always a chance" to reach an agreement with the West over Ukraine.

European leaders have warned that the buildup is the worst threat to the continent's security since the Cold War, with Putin demanding a rollback of Western influence in Eastern Europe and a ban on Ukraine joining NATO.

Western allies have prepared what they warn would be a crippling package of economic sanctions in response to any attack, although Moscow has repeatedly said it has no such plans.

Recent Russian military exercises, including with Belarus, where the U.S. said Moscow had dispatched 30,000 troops for more than a week of drills, have caused rising concern.

Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu told Putin that some of the drills were "ending" and more would end "in the near future."

In Kyiv, Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov hailed "positive" talks with his Belarusian counterpart, saying he had been assured "there are no threats to Ukraine from Belarus".

U.S. intelligence officials worry that weeks of crisis talks have given Russia the time to prepare a major offensive should Putin decide to attack Ukraine.

Information from AFP was used in this report.

My Legal Address clarified for deliveries

Its sole address sign reads now: Only one number, not the former confusing two numbers:

IT IS NOW: 

8419 !...my legal residence address.

The former, now irrelevant  posted entrance gate SIGN number of 8243, has been FINALLY!... REMOVED, as it is incorrect…. the former & outdated address of that entrance gate, years ago, when it was the entrance to only that immediate property… which does adjoin where I reside, but  when it was a separate rental property…. and when I personally used for many past years — ANOTHER…..  older other entrance gate address with its very steep and quite dangerous drive-way — which currently still exists but which is not in use…. but which could be used in an emergency, as an exit route to fight or to flee a forest fire on, etc. 

Now this 8419 entrance gate is MY SOLE RESIDENCE ADDRESS and the sole route from State Highway 138 West, to access my  abode where I live, and it has also long been my U.S. POSTAL mailing address or for sending me any type of non-postal system parcels, as via FEDEX,. etc.

But, I easily get automatically… delivered here to my residence door, U.S. Parcel Post parcels…. which need to be earmarked: “Please deliver parcel TO RESIDENCE DOOR of recipient.”

Commentary regarding this post:

http://remnantrocor.blogspot.com/2021/12/welcome-hieromonk-john-to-rocor-in.html

 

About ONE BRAVE & Outspoken FORMER MP clergy, This Hieromonk John,  who courageously and openly speaks the truth about this monstrosity of Putin’s fanciful “Russian World” related  nightmarish creation, - his expression of his preposterous myth of a supposed  harmony of all those who were instrumental in creating his wonderful and glorious current STILL SLAVISH & MARXIST & SOVIET, Russian Federation ….. and which, brave openly fearless protestor, Hieromonk John has fled from being a priest inside of Stalin’s 1943 creation, the graceless uncanonical “Moscow Patriarchy”- KGB controlled ‘church’,  and fled to our anti-communist and truly canonical Russian Orthodox Church Abroad remnant, lead by our Vladyka Metropolitan Agafangel (Pashkovsky) - MAY GOD HELP AND DEFEND Hieromonk John, FROM apostate and servant of Satan, Vladimir Vladimirovich PUTIN, and His demonic WRATH and RETRIBUTION.

May Almighty God! Remove the wicked Marxist -“Progressive” God-fighters from power, in Russia and America, and everywhere!: ... my daily prayer.

These global deluded ignorant of history, pro-Marxist servants of Satan, are now taking over my America too.  May God defeat them and convert them, or take them away!

Godless bloodthirsty dictator “Democratically and freely elected president” (???)   President For Life -Vladimir Putin is trying to create his own twisted and propaganda constructed, past IMAGINARY recent Russian history, one which glorifies the HEROIC (?) Bolshevik-Communist mass murderers, THE BUTCHERS OF THE RUSSIAN PEOPLE, and himself with his  phony official make-believe ‘Russian Church’: the mythic lie - that his current non-free KGB controlled Russian Federation, has 100% healed (really corrupted & rewritten!) its past terrible history, and is now … as if by magic … ‘unified’ and is on a glorious road to more!...‘ progress’, etc.: THE BIG LIE!  This horrible and dark sinister enormous massive vile gloomy-hued building, this Military Cathedral, while built in the general shape and style of a normal Russian-Byzantine style (monumentally huge in size) Orthodox Cathedral, expresses this big propaganda lie… especially in its interior’s massive wall frescoes and icon panels, .i.e. that God and His martyric saintly servants -  AND!....  Satan and his God-Fighting vile servants - those who persecuted, imprisoned and tortured to death, i.e.  murdered God’s saints, can NOW TODAY!... be united!..: THAT NOW WE THE LIVING CAN AND SHOULD EQUALLY PRAISE… BOTH!.... GROUPS!..... a fanciful unbelievable to accept by any sane person anywhere, NIGHTMARE myth that only a total  pagan atheist like MOCKER OF GOD…. Vlad  Putin could possibly invent or push on the world as historical reality.  But where is there any expression of REPENTANCE? - that is what is totally missing from Putin’s concocted propaganda vision of recent post-communist Russian history, since its terrible “PROGRESSIVE” Communist takeover..

Clearly many Russian people or other ethnic people living in the Russian Federation, do not agree with this fantastic historical myth or Putin’s EVERYDAY repression of their God-given human freedoms, or have full  or trusting full faith in Putin’s  phony KGB “Official Russian Orthodox Church” - the Stalin created in 1943, in the dark of night behind  closed doors, foul non-canonical “Moscow Patriarchy,” (which currently blesses every evil and lying word and action of Putin’s enslaved government and his captive servile military! - which seeks Satanic WORLD DOMINATION - i.e Putin’s “RUSSAIN WORLD”) yet few dare to express publically what they truly believe in their hearts.  May God bless and protect those who do!

The Reading Is From The Epistle of The Holy Apostle Paul To The Hebrews: 

BRETHREN!

12 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

² Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

³ For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.

⁴ Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.

⁵ And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:

⁶ For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

⁷ If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

⁸ But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye false childred, and not sons.

⁹ Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?

¹⁰ For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.

¹¹ Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

¹² Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;

¹³ And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.

¹⁴ Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

¹⁵ Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;

¹⁶ Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.

¹⁷ For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.

¹⁸ For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,

¹⁹ And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:

²⁰ (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:

²¹ And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)

²² But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,

²³ To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,

²⁴ And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.

²⁵ See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:

²⁶ Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.

²⁷ And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.

²⁸ Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

²⁹ For our God is a consuming fire.

”Give Thanks to the Lord, always!, and again I say, Give Thanks!”
