Bishop Nikoloz of Akhalkalaki and Kumurdo of Georgia met with us in Tbilisi and talked to us about some of his memories from St. Gabriel the Fool for Christ. Metropolitan Nikoloz experienced St. Gabriel personally when he was still a student at the Theological Academy of Tbilisi, as well as later when he was a priest. He shared with us several experiences with the eccentric saint of Georgia, which still stand out in his mind and which have affected his own life and the way he looks at the world today.

29:27 Very good.
A drunk man came in our church one Sunday and parishioners were perturbed so I went to the front where he was and brought him to sit with me and told him- behave, he did. I saw this same man during the week, he ask me to go dancing with him on Saturday, I said yes and he could not believe because he was outcast in our community. He died on the Friday. I believe he was an angel sent by God
Wow, beautiful account.
Im happy many non Georgians love him. According to one of his supposed prophecies many people from all over the world will come in Georgia to escape antichrist. I think he will guide this people and that's why he became so loved. If we really are living in end times.
interesting...
As an Italian who plans to move to Georgia for religious reasons, I am extremely pleased to know about this prophecy. I also know about another prophecy which states that faith in Georgia will stay strong up to the Second Coming. Is this one real too? All of this perfectly coincides with the personal spiritual path I’ve undertook since last July, which in the end made my accept Orthodox Christianity, and in my opinion that’s not casual. I do believe our Lord Jesus Christ is saving the pious’ souls and directing them to one of the last lands on Earth that are illuminated by His light, as we approach the end times (and indeed there are a lot of signs that hint we are close to them).
@@pierlucaloreto6774 according to saint Gabriel the persecution of Antichrist will be in Georgia too but the evil one won't win. It does not mean Georgia will be safe place physically but it is safe spiritually. Orthodox Christian always must be ready for Martyrdom. Since such thing may await us it's better if we will be together during it.
I want to move to Belarus. Anywhere Russian is spoken, I've been learning the Russian language since inquiring into the Orthodox Christian Church.
Learning of him his life and prophecy just today from diff youtube videos
My favorite Saint!! Saint Gabriel pray for me in front of the Throne of God. ☦️☦️☦️
This is a beautiful collection of memories about St. Gabriel. Ever since I first heard of him, I have felt a special connection with him and I know he is praying for me. Thank you, St. Gabriel, for your prayers! Glory to God!
Being a Georgian, I get goosebumps reading these comments. god bless you all!
Saint Gabriel, pray for us. Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on us all.
I have never heard of this man, Saint Gabriel... Until now.
Clearly he was a devout Man of God.
I really enjoyed watching and listening.
May the peace of God be with you always.
Metropolitan Nikoloz speaks such amazing English! And his necklace of Virgin Mary is so unique and fascinating!
hey, where you from? :)
IM ROMAN CATHOLIC BUT THIS SAINT MAKES ME SO HAPPY THAT I WILL START CRYING WHEN REMEMBERING HIM. SAINT GABRIEL IS A SAINT WITH RARE QUALITIES AND NICKNAMED FOOL FOR CHRIST SAYS EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM. A MODERN SAINT ICONIC FOR OUR TIME. TODAY I WILL PRINT A PICTURE OF HIM.
I am a Roman Catholic but for the last several months have been going to Byzantine Catholic liturgies. My soul has been rejuvenated by the depth of eastern prayers, the prostrations, the Divine Liturgy, all of it. Your channel has been very informative as I learn more about the eastern Church. Thank you! Glory to Jesus Christ
Byzantine Roman Catholic connected to the pope are, counterfeit because the papacy excommunicated the rest of the church in 1054, becoming free of being answerable to their brother bishops. So the first reformation happened by Rome's pride 😢😲😞 Please return yourself, and come HOME. Come and see and discover what Rome threw away.
Respectfully, know that the Orthodox Church alone has the fullness of revealed truth and is the true Church.
The Byzantine Catholic church only has an outward appearance of Orthosox christianity. It is not blessed by Grace as it is counterfeit and its dogma is catholic not orthodox.
@JB808 The above comments speak the truth. I am very happy that our channel has helped you, but the answer does not lie in what is essentially a counterfeit "eastern rite" tradition. The "eastern rite" was created (and this is historically acknowledged) to trick people in orthodox countries into joining the church of old Rome. I don't say any of this to hurt you but rather to help you; it isn't enough to dress, look and sound Orthodox, but becoming Orthodox should be the goal.
Thank you for comments brothers and sisters. I will continue to pray for all of you and the work that you do. Please keep me and my family in your prayers
I have been reading a lot about St Gabriel now this. I am planning on ordering an icon of him for my house.thank u for the excellent video
What a Joy to see this even now. Fr Panayiotis is a joy to see and listen too and so is this account!
Keep me in your prayers.
-Fr Mikhail
Thank you father! More to come, we have an exclusive interview with one of his spiritual children. Although father Panayiotis won't be in that one haha.
I watched the video about Saint Gabriel and now i found this video. Saint Gabriel is such an inspiration. I am South African and learning about the Orthodox Chruch.God bless
Very moving and inspiring story. St. Gabriel, pray to God for us!
"you have to be Christian, not perfect" loved that.
Thank you so much for this amazing gold! St. Gabriel is one of my favorite saints, I absolutely love him! It's so incredible to have a whole film dedicated just to someone who knew him, describing him so we can get to know him better. God and St. Gabriel bless you for your efforts!
I have been sharing fr. Gabriel to friends & family and asking for his prayers too . Even sharing to secular people especially. I love you fr gabriel
Glad we can know St Gabriel from this interview
God bless St. Gabriel and god bless us all
როგორი სასიამოვნოა ამის ნახვა❤️❤️❤️
Bless us Father,. Thank you for this interview. I love St Gabriel so much. I am grateful to hear about his time here.
St Gabriel please, please pray for us
Thank you! I always enjoy hearing about St. Gabriel! He is a true friend. JMJ
This is so beautiful to hear the stories about St. Gabriel first hand. Thank you all for providing this to us. May God Bless you all for your hard work to travel miles and the time you spend to share this with us..to inspire us and keep the flame.. I keep having to pause and come back because I am at work and will listen all over in it's entirety this evening. 🙏🏼❤🕯✝️🕊
Thank you
I suggest watching with subtitles for more clarity. Glad you enjoyed it 😊
What a beautiful interview. Thank you Metropolitan Nikoloz and thank you Trisagion Films.
The story about the candlestick and overwhelming joy is great! The Church is certainly represented by candlesticks. This is especially true in the Book of Revelations where the risen Christ walks among the Candlesticks that are His Churches. But the Church is not an institution or a building. It is the people who assemble to love and worship Christ. They are the candlesticks; enlightened by the touch of the Holy Spirit and the "fool for Christ" was certainly one of these.
amen
Amen
I loooooove Saint Gabriel .
Im Maronite Catholic . Just to see his holy eyes makes me cry and pierces my soul . I hope to have the blessing to go to Georgia and kiss his tomb . With the piece of paper stuck on his head who could forget such a sight . I wish our priests would crack the whip with us sheep . We all need tough love in these rebellious times .
Joy is a spiritual gift which is not dependent on worldly circumstances . One can be happy in good circumstances but if these become negative we become unhappy . Joy is constant a gift from God to those who suffer for Christ .
Through the saints the schism is is cast aside . Glory to God in all his saints in all the churchs unified in heaven but still suffering on earth .
Saint Gabriel, pray for us😊🙏💝
My most favorite channel .I feel blessed when ever I watch any new video. Father pls. Keep me in yr prayer. Love from India.
Thank you to whoever did the close caption. Good job 👌

Fascinating, inspiring... course correcting.
Thank you fir sharing the life of Saint Gabriel. I only heard about him the last few years. I feel so much comfort, so much love that radiates from this Saint! Saint Gabriel, pray to God for us during these times 🙏🏽☦️📿
Thank you, for sharing !
Praise to GOD !
Shalom to you all.
Greetings from Germany.
All Glory be to God+++
What an amazing ride that night (to use the colloquial English terminology, as it is most of fitting). Came here after the mini documentary you posted on St Gabrile's life. Tender spot in my heart right now as I bring to mind St Gabriel's face. ΔΟΞΑ ΤΩ ΘΕΩ!
Wonderful Thank you for sharing! God Bless
Great to hear a personal testimony!
AMAZING!!!
Thank you and thank God for father gabrial
Thank you Trisagion Films. This is a wonderful conversation. I am subscribed 💜🙏🏾✝️🕊
Father Gabrial lived his life in the holy spirit. I watched a program on him how they beat him often. He went to jail often
Absolutely... absolutely.
❤ONE LOVE ❤️
Thank you so much for video! God bless
I would love to hear more 😅
I am so thankful for this video!!! Thank you for travelling and meeting amazing people for those of us who cannot. ☺️
Wow this is in English 🙏🏼 I am so so proud of the st Gabriel talk in English language. Let the world know that we are the nation of first civilisation and a language of oldest🇬🇪✝️🇬🇪 Christ is coming Soon 🌊 🔥
Ty for making these videos.
God Bless
Thank you very much. It is very inspiring and a learning experience for me.
St.Gabriel was not garbage. He was a treasure, a diamond in the rough. I remember his chapel.
Love as a child
Thank you for this amazing video !We always enjoy watching your videos !
I love this ❤
whoever made subtitles. great job.
He was an exceptionally saintly man who exposed the ghastly evil of Russian communism. He suffered horribly for his loyalty to Christ. I only feel awe for St Gabriel!
Do you know that he admitted he sinned in burning that ?
The Joy of the LORD is our strength.
Saint gabriel our brother may your blessings be poured on the sick ❤
My soon to be wife is from georgia and i always ask for Saint Gabriels intercessions when she makes me go crazy to pray for her and it works every time😂
Amazing!
God bless you fr
☦🛐🙏
Thank you for making the video about Saint Gabriel.
Excellent and it would have been great if you would have included photos of Saint Gabriel.
❤️❤️❤️
I am from louisiana AMERICA AND OWNED MY OWN HOME BUT CHOSE TO LIVE ON THE STREET. TO SHARE JESUS AND HIS MOTHER LOVE
Fr gabebriel did cartwheels in church.
I sin every day, on purpose, and I keep doing it. Because it feels so good.
Please pray for me.
Hi. Keep the lake of fire în your mind more. Its a real lake of fire not a symbolic one. God have His life so that you may not end up there. Value yourself more and think of how your parents raised you or whoever raised you. For them, God and yourself fight against your temptations. You are not alone. Fight, fight, dont stop fighting for we only have a little more time and nobody knows when they die. May you find the courage to stand against this wasteful tendencies. I try fighting too and fail many times but we have to try harder.
He didn't finish his story about the shop owner yelling at Saint Gabriel after hitting him. I wonder what happened next?
That was the story. The person was mad that saint Gabriel helped the "bad" guy escape, and saint Gabriel and the storyteller moved on. Haha. It was as simple as that. His eminence doesn't tell us if the saint told the angry person anything or explained why he did it.
Thank you! To me, it had read and sounded like Metropolitan Nikoloz had more to say. Glad that is cleared up. :)
Superb stories of St. Gabriel... Thank you so much.
Who is the Priest interviewing?
Father Panayiotis, the spiritual and theological advisor of trisagionfilms. He is featured in many of our theology videos.
@@Trisagionfilms Thank you.
How can you smell of wine without drinking it.
Miracle? Maybe he would swish some around and spit it out when no one was looking? Maybe he would drink just a little to seem like a drunk? Why are you looking for something to condemn this man? Who are you??
Resonable question . One cant bé à saint and a drunkerd . Know them by their fruits . God knows why hé smelt of wine . Every thing about this man is mystery .
Read some stories from Gerontikon ❤
❤ are the men Twins? Hahaha
The saint and the bishop? They are both Georgian so they share similar genetic characteristics :)
The holy spirit is DINOMITE
