  • “From the second chapter of St. Paul's Second Epistle to the Thessalonians it is clear that the teaching about the Antichrist enters into the content of the earliest apostolic evangelization.”
    “But why is it so important to know this teaching?
    Because, as the Holy Fathers warn us beforehand, he who ignores this teaching, considering it unimportant and not essential in Christianity, will not recognize the Antichrist and will worship him.
    But is it really possible not to recognize the Antichrist? Yes, it is possible!”
    “Remembering Bishop Ignatii's words that "the Antichrist will be logical, just, and the natural result of the general moral and spiritual direction of mankind", we leave it to the reader attentive to surrounding life to draw his own conclusions from what has been said above, while, on our part, we can only repeat: "Let him who is being saved save his soul!"
    -------
    Archbishop Averky was a righteous shepherd of the 20th century who served as Abbot of the Holy Trinity Monastery and Rector of Holy Trinity Seminary in Jordanville, NY. He was spiritual son of the great 20th century theologian and holy hierarch, Archbishop Theophan of Poltava, Russia, who himself was a disciple of St. Theophan the Recluse, and therefore is a living link in America to the Faith of Pre-Revolutionary Russia. Archbishop Averky was so esteemed that before his repose, St. John Maximovitch told Fr. Seraphim Rose that if he had any theological questions to ask Archbishop Averky. The honorable Archbishop reposed in 1976 and his relics lie in a small chapel for veneration at Holy Trinity Monastery.

    Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. So many truths i never knew..
    It all falls into place beautifully..
    How grateful i am that this teaching has been given to the world.. and to me, who needs it, as one who is a convert to this Holy Orthodox Church, and who has never before spent any meaningful time on the subject of the antiChrist..Oh, how easy it will be for many to be deceived..oh, how we must pray and watch and be careful to not be tricked.

    So prophetic! And now, even the ROCOR has become apostate, when it reunited with Moscow in 2007! The only remaining faithful churches since then, is the GOC (Church of Genuine Orthodox Christians). Fortunately, the ROCOR churches that refused to join Moscow were then brought into the GOC fold.
    LORD HAVE MERCY on us all, in these Last Days!

    The way our world is today, it seems totally plausible someone like this would fit right in. The governments seem to be guiding the people towards a direction where we will cry for a savior/messiah. May God guide the church

    Beware of the leavens of the Pharisees (Leavens of the LAW - Concerns the Jews)
    Beware of the leavens of Herod (Leavens of the FAITH , specifically the Protestants) both complimenting each other, to Egypt, from this understanding discern the Anti Christ (s) ,

      Fr. Averky of Jordanville lived 1906-1976, so somewhere in the middle... probably not earlier than '30s, I'd guess

    Persecution and Martyrdom are getting worse and we can see in the protestant and Papal churches, that love of sin is not only accepted by championed.

      Exactly what satan does. Sorry, but reality is very dark. Look around. Abortion, 2nd graders brought to a Gay Bar (where everything is bright and shiny) look how they took the rainbow, unicorns, toys, teens lap dancing on teachers all in colorful evening attire. Satan uses anything he can to make people "feel good", "comfortable". Darkest days are coming, the anti Christ will be lovely, beautiful, pleasant and trick most.

      @@evolvingerinb you aren’t evolving. You are getting worldsick. Just get off the Internet, these examples you bring up are red herrings. They may exist but they aren’t that common. Abortion is far more widespread in ‘Orthodox’ countries than in America and hardly existent at all in places like Holland where the ‘lefty’ government promotes family life without judgment. What causes women to despair of bringing a child into the world is bad governance and widespread poverty. Take care of people’s bodies and minds and their spirits will flourish. It’s not a zero-sum game.
