      That guy has granted us a lot of really good information though. I wonder myself if it's sin to know how to take care of one's body and one's wellbeing and to simply ignore that information? We have been granted the ability to prolong one's life and our capabilities, allowing us to commit more good.

And there is so much wisdom in Orthodoxy, I hope to be a full member of the church one day, now that I have found it . This was a great talk, Thank you Fr Josiah.

      It’s funny how evil is one of the best things to bring us to the light. I believed a God existed but it was a God I had made up for myself. I remember I went to a heavy rock concert, and it felt like I gained consciousness for the first time. I looked all around me and everyone was screaming while disgusting and blasphemous things were being done on stage, and I knew this life was wrong. All the Glory to God for enlightening us to his truth ☦️

      @johnnyd2383 9 місяців тому

      @@tumbynaga In his desperate attempt to counter heretical Latin abuses within the church, your guru Luther swang the pendulum to the other extreme position.... which is also false and yet another heresy. For example, requirements for salvation are spelled out in (Mark 16, 16) - faith AND ??? (works). Or, in (James 2,26): "faith without works is dead". Your guru wanted to remove book of James from the Bible for it was destroying his heretical doctrine. To put another nail in the coffin of that heretical doctrine, (Phil 2, 12) "...WORK OUT YOUR OWN SALVATION with fear and trembling..."
      Advice: If one wants to create doctrine, it is not advisable to select a few verses one may like, and create a straw man out of them. One ought to select ALL verses related to the subject matter, and based on ALL of them, create doctrine making sure there is no contradiction in between any of those verses and the doctrine.
      When you quote Ephesians 2, you should make sure you understand the context in which it is written. St. Paul was visiting Ephesus in 54 AD and spoke in Synagogue (Acts 19, 8). We can see St. Paul in his letter to Ephesians 2, talking about the "sons of disobedience" (v. 2) and "children of wrath" (v. 3), who are clearly the old Israelites, and thus makes clear distinction and progress between OT situation people were in, and NT situation by saying: "we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ" (v. 5). Then he continues to exalt new hope that is given to us in Lord Jesus Christ of being offered Grace as a mean of salvation (v. 8), which is His free gift to us... once again negating works of the OT: "not of works" (v. 9). And finally he mentions Christians being "His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus FOR GOOD WORKS" (v. 10) saying that "we should walk in them", meaning... to perform them. Note the negative connotation St. Paul makes with regards to the "works" of the OT and positive "good works" of the NT.
      So my dear... my friendly advice to you would be to re-examine your doctrine of salvation as it is unsound and not in compliance with the ancient Christianity as preserved in the Eastern Orthodox Church.

    3:00 St. Paisius Velichkovsky stayed that even if we live for a thousand years partaking uninterrupted of earthly pleasures with hardship, even with that when death comes it will still not seem to be enough. It will all seem like smoke and ash in the distant past. (I believe it was in Lilies of the Field he says this).

    The thought that he could die "accidentally" upon God's command, obviously hasn't crossed his mind.
    God is in control. If He grants him a long life, it's only because of His uncontroversial and patience.

    Thanks be to You, Lord, for everything!
    Glory be to You for creating me in Your image and likeness.
    Thanks be to You who redeemed me, the fallen one.
    Thank You Lord for taking care of me, unworthy.
    Thank You Lord for calling me, who had sinned, to repentance.
    Glory to You Lord for giving me Your Holy Word, like a lamp shining in a dark place, and thus guiding me on the true path.
    Thank You Lord for enlightening the eyes of my heart.
    Glory to You Lord for making me know Your holy Name.
    Thank You Lord, that in the bath of Baptism You washed away my sins.
    Thank you Lord for showing me the way to eternal bliss.
    The way is Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who says of Himself: "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life".
    Glory be to You for not destroying me by sinning, and in Your infinite condescension You forgave my sins.
    Thank You Lord for showing me the beauty and vanity of this world.
    Thank You Lord for helping me in various temptations and saving me from death.
    Thank You my God for protecting me from the enemy, the devil.
    Thank You my God, who lifted me up when I was fallen.
    Thank You Lord for comforting me when I was sad.
    Thank You Lord for converting me, who was led astray.
    Thank You Lord for Your fatherly chastisement.
    Thank You my God for announcing Your terrible judgment, so that I fear it and repent of my sins.
    Thank You Lord for telling me about eternal torment and eternal bliss, to avoid torment and seek bliss.
    Thank You Lord that You gave me, unworthy, food to strengthen my weak body; that You gave me clothes to cover my naked body; You gave me a house in which I found peace.
    Glory be to You Lord for all Your other blessings for my preservation and comfort.
    How many blessings I have received from You, my Lord and my God, how many times I have sighed.
    Praise God for everything!

    Hi Josiah! I'm 62, and my motivation for staying healthy is that my father died at 74 and my mother died at 77. Their deaths could have been avoided had they been good stewards over their bodies.
    My mother was overly indulgent; fast food & junk food were her vices, and so was negativity. She was an Atheist. My father was very healthy until he retired and started hanging out with my mother at her favorite fast food places and donut houses. His health went quickly, and he died 6 years before my mother.
    I have had my own issues, which after having watched my father die, I made an oath to be a good steward over my health, for the sake of my children & grandchildren.
    So, I discipline myself, but not like Brian Johnson, who doesn't impress me in the least. I watch some of his videos, and his money has corrupted his mind. He doesn't look very healthy to me. When I was his age, I had already been disciplining myself. My diet was half American: anything beef, some pork, some chicken, some duck, some venison, even bison.
    I eat red potatoes, asparagus, brussel sprouts, green beans, carrots, bell peppers, onions & green onions, cilantro, tomatoes, alfalfa sprouts, romane lettuce. I'm picky about breads; none of those cheap sandwich breads. I have fried eggs on steamed rice & soy sauce (sparingly), sometimes bacon, and toast with butter.
    I did go through a period in which I was eating too much cheese, but I backed off of that. Pasta actually makes me feel good.
    The other half of my diet is Vietnamese cuisine, which is MY version of health food.
    I stay active, stay competitive with guys younger than half my age. That keeps me moving fast, and that keeps you healthy.
    Sorry, I'm talking too much, but I have to say, the first video of yours I watched, I liked what you had to say. So it was with the second, third, forth, fifth and sixth as well. So far, it seems you and I have the same worldview. I was even considering moving back to California, and to Southern Cal, to fellowship in your church. And I never liked anything south of Sacramento.
    But, I am Orthodox in my Biblical views. Anyway, time to run.

    This episode offers a wealth of valuable insights, and I deeply appreciate the father’s perspective on the matter. However, I would like to respectfully offer an alternative viewpoint. While father Josiah’s analysis offers valuable insights from a Christian perspective, i believe he missed to recognize the distinction between biological mortality and spiritual transcendence. Viewing Brian Johnson's quest to extend biological life through the lens of conquering spiritual death is like mistaking a flashlight for the sunrise: both shed light, but only one illuminates the vast expanse of dawn's horizon.
    Glory to Jesus our living king .

My Father's house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going."

    It's prideful , arrogant and foolish to even consider being able to cheat death. In much the same way it's foolish to believe cause and effect can be cheated.
