    Cosmas of Aetolia, sometimes Kosmas of Aetolia or Cosmas/Kosmas the Aetolian or Patrokosmas "Father Cosmas" (Greek: Κοσμάς Αιτωλός, Kosmas Etolos; born between 1700 and 1714 - died 1779), was a monk in the Greek Orthodox Church. He attended public schools, but was tutored by an archdeacon. He taught and then attended a school on Mt. Athos. He became a monk and later a priest at Philotheou Monastery where he remained for two years. After a time, he felt a calling to do missionary work in Greece, especially in the remote areas where there was a lack of churches and priests for the many unbaptized adults. As an aftermath of four centuries of Turkish oppression in Greece, Kosmas received the patriarchal blessing in 1759 to travel wherever needed, for however long, with complete independence, to breathe life back into Christianity in Greece.
    Saint Cosmas, the "Equal to the Apostles," was officially proclaimed a Saint by the Orthodox Church of Constantinople on 20 April 1961. His feast day is celebrated on 24 August, the date of his martyrdom.

    My Deacons’s family lived in Vithkuq and Korçë in the lands of Southern Albania for the centuries and many of his ancestors studied in a school founded by Saint Kozma, and from my conjecture I believe my family in Berat had studied in one also, for he is a Great Saint who defended the faith and its teachings greatly!

    One effect of his preaching was to transfer the holding of the weekly bazaar (fair) from Sunday to Saturday, which brought economic losses to Jews - barred by their religion from engaging in business on Sabbath. Some researchers believe that for that reason, Jews in Epirus were involved in his conviction by the Ottoman authorities. From Wikipedia.

I`m muslim but i went to your churches a few times. orthodox people have great scholars and monks and Allah talks about orthodox monks in the Quran with great respect and love. because no mater what is the name of the creator that he is the only one. and i have great respect to Jesus Christ pbuh.

      Almost done with the catechism should finish by end of Lent. It's been a gratifying journey. For most things it makes perfect sense to me and I appreciate actual debate and refernces. I can't stand the Baptist (or dang near all Protestant) system of "feel him" and "pray harder". I like there there's a clearly defined map and measurable steps as well as emotions.

    A PRAYER COMPOSED FROM PSALM 91 THAT I PRAY WILL UPLIST AND ENCOURAGE OTHERS IN THIS FRIGHTENING DAY AND AGE WE LIVE IN NOW.
    A PRAY TO RECITE COMPOSED FROM PSALM 91 +
    ALMIGHTY GOD, SWEET ABBA, let me dwell in the secret place You provide, the Most High - I shall abide under the shadow of You, the Almighty.
    Indeed, I shall say of you my Lord, "You are my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Whom I will trust."
    Surely I believe and know that You shall deliver me from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence.
    You shall cover me with Your feathers, and under Your wings I will take refuge; Your truth shall be my shield and buckler.
    And I will not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day, Oh Lord God.
    Nor will I fear the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday, oh my God.
    And I believe that a thousand may fall at my side, and ten thousand at my right hand; but it shall not come near me.
    Only with my eyes will I look and see the reward of the wicked.
    Because I have made You the Lord, who is my refuge, even the Most High, my dwelling place.
    No evil will befall me, nor shall any plague come near my dwelling.
    For you my God shall give Your angels charge over me, to keep me in all Your ways.
    In their hands they shall bear me up, least I dash my foot against a stone.
    And I shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, the young lion and the serpent I shall trample underfoot.
    Because You my God have set Your love upon me, therefore You shall deliver me; You will set me on high, because I have known Your Name.
    And I shall call upon You, and You will answer me; You will be with me in trouble; You will deliver me and honor me.
    And with long life will you satisfy me.

  • @McIntyreBible
    @McIntyreBible 4 роки тому +1

    St.Cosmas made the statement that “if you do not have these two loves you cannot be saved” (5:39). That’s true if he was referring to sanctification; but if meant justification then he was grossly in error, because justification is not depended on any human merit, but only Christ’s!

    • @AlexT-sy6nm
      @AlexT-sy6nm 3 роки тому +4

      No he was not "grossly in error " - it's who is misunderstanding his words in Protestant terms which are themselves erroneous. Feel free to educate yourself more on proper Church history, the Patristic theology, proper Christology, Ecclesiology and Sacramentology, before blaspheming the Lord's saints. Jay Dyer would be a great start especially in helping to clarify how the Western schisms fell away from the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church, which is the Eastern Orthodox Church, and how their erroneous "theologies" developed. Then you can also check out Patristic Nectar, The Orthodox Ethos Podcast, Orthodox Teaching of the Elders (all on youtube) - and of course more videos by this same channel, Trisagion Films.
      May God bless you and help you come out of the folly of Western herecies.
