O day of wrath, that day
when the earth will be reduced to ashes,
as David and the Sibyl both testify!
What great fear there will be,
when the judge comes
to judge all things strictly.

I got connected with the #Bible out of #survival requirements. I had been #damned to hell and I was terrified. I ended up with an #Eastern #Orthodox sponsor in recovery. He gave me great advice.
He told me to pick one of the first four books and just read it over and over until I got something.

What the world misunderstands is this: Turks fell behind in science because of the Ottoman Empire, a Balkan Orthodox state. #türkiye #turkey #ottoman #orthodox #science
Those investing in real estate and tourism in Türkiye are Russian, Balkan, and Caucasian mafias not Arabs... and they are all Orthodox Christians. For Arabs, Spain holds far more "positive meaning" than Istanbul, while Istanbul is important for Orthodox Christians! #türkiye #mafia #orthodox #russian

As we enter Lent, an important political and religious message to consider. #orthodox #lent
Remember that #Hagia #Sophia was an #Orthodox #church
for 900 years before #Constantinople was conquered by the
#Ottomans in the 15th century.
We must stop thinking that #Islamization is a fabrication.
The #Hagia #Sophia is a #church that they #invaded,
#colonised and #defiled.
I chose love over exclusion, union over distance, on Holy Mount Athos. Community prayer became a living bridge.

Near midnight on Holy Mount Athos, a monk’s blessing met my doubt. I felt lost—and led.

On Holy Mount Athos I learned hospitality toward God begins by releasing fear and arrogance.

Through iron doors and cloistered silence on Holy Mount Athos, I hoped my heart would finally open to God.

Letting go of everything—even my desire for God—was the painful doorway to love on the Holy Mount Athos. Emptiness became liberation.
