You can change Your life / Fasten and pray

Mon, 09 Mar 2015 12:31:00 +0200

It is the fasting period before Big Friday and the Easter.!

This is the time where we mourn with our Jesus Christ, pray and fasten. We try to think over our life and turn it in order with God's Will. Jesus said my sisters and brothers are those who do the will of my Father. Therefore we should try to put away the bed habbits - lying, cheating, love towards evil things. We should do good and keep all the commandments of God, also pray and fasten. If we do this and take part in the Holy Communion and confession wiith patiance we will one day notice that the bed wishes don't come back as strong as they were before. We will be free, our faith will grow and we can help other people if we actually experience this possisble change through God's help.

Come to the church if there is something that aches Your soul! Confess with trust in God's mercy so You can receive the chance of a new start of Your life. What is impossible for people is not impossible for God - You will be set free.

Please pray for me sinner in the Name of the Father and the Son and The Holy Spirit.

Little Sister in Lord Chist

Dear friends from China!!!!New

Mon, 23 Jun 2014 08:51:00 +0200

1. Dear friends from China, welcome and thank You for Your interest, it makes me very happy. I would be glad if You would contact me and give me a person from Your orthodox church as a contact for the readers of this homepage!

Please pray for my family , best wishes Aleksandra

2. The way that You live for Your christian, orthodox religion is very overwhelming. As we who live in democracies where everyone can free worship Christ, we forget how it is to be opressed and followed because we love him. I would like to support You in belief by telling You about four martyrs from Crete.

These are Angelis, Emmanuel, Georgios and Nikolaos the mentioning day 28.10 or 13 day later. They were Krypto-Christians, telling none that they love our Lord Jesus. They were living like Islamists on the outside. As there was a partisan arrousal against the Turkish con curers they stood up to fight against the Turkish. But they didn't win so the con-curers came back. When they came to take the taxes from the Christians, our beloved martyrs decided it was time to show whom they actually love and bravely pronounced to everyone they are Christians. On the 28.10.1824 their heads were cut of in public in Rethimnon, Crete. Bright light flouted from their bodies so it could be seen from everybody ! So our God stood to them as they stood to Him. He pronounced them holy.

By their prayers dear God save our souls- In the Name of the Father and Son and the Holy Spirit!!!!!

Don't be sad when people laugh about You or even if You have to swallow down the worship in the moments when You would love to scream the Name of Jesus and praise His Name. Stand still till Your time comes. Work steadily to help Your brothers and sisters to recognize the victim of Gods beloved Son Jesus and that our souls can be saved by Him! And one day our God will call Your name in His Kingdom so You can find peace in Him who is the Lord of Peace.

And on that day please don't forget Your little sister fighting with worthless and stupid worries of the day. Pray for me and my family. In love Aleksandra. I appreciate so much that You are there.

Unterstützung für die Übersetzung ins Englische gesucht

Sun, 08 Jun 2014 22:31:00 +0200

Liebe Freunde,

da diese Homepage neben Deutschland vor allem in den USA und China viel gelesen wird, in diesem Monat sind es bereits über 100 Seiten, die in China angeklickt waren, bitte ich um Unterstützung um Texte aus dem Deutschen ins Englische zu übersetzen , bzw. um mein Englisch nachzubessern. Falls jemand diese Homepage mag und häufig liest, Englisch gut kann und mich unterstützen möchte, bitte schreibt mir unter theopollita@gmx.de

Ich weiß ja, dass sehr viele mitlesen. Letzten Monat waren es 374 unterschiedliche Besucher. Mich interessiert eure Meinung. Was findet ihr gut, was nicht. Gibt es ein Thema, zu dem ihr Fragen habt oder etwas mehr wissen möchtet? Schreibt mir.

Natürlich möchte ich euch ermuntern auf die Gemeinden in eurer Nähe zuzugehen und eure Fragen zu stellen. Manchmal gibt es den besonderen Menschen, den Gott euch zur Seite stellen möchte irgendwo anders, z. B. Berg Athos oder andere Orte in Griechenland oder einfach in einem Kloster in Deutschland oder anderswo. Betet darum, dass Gott euch hinführt. Fragt Gott, Er möge euch führen zu einem geistlichen Vater, der euch begleiten kann, Verständnis hat, Sanftmut oder die Strenge, das, was gerade für einen notwendig ist.

Gerade an heutigem Tag, seit voller Liebe und seit mutig, fragt nach, stellt Ihm euch zur Verfügung, um Jesus zu dienen, so wie Er es möchte, für euer eigenes Wohl aber auch um das eurer Nächsten.

Liebe Grüße Aleksandra

Die Orthodoxie und die Ökumene von Heiligem Vater Justin

Sat, 07 Jun 2014 16:49:00 +0200

Liebe Freunde,

wie unser Herr Jesus Christus es von uns erwartet, sollen wir ja für die Vereinigung in die Wahre Eine Christliche Kirche beten. Das wird auch in jeder Liturgie mit erbeten.Nun werden die ersten Schritte der Annäherung zwischen der Katholischen und der Orthodoxen Kirche unternommen. (Gespräche hat es stets gegeben auch in der Vergangenheit)

Die Verantwortung ist groß. Die Erwartungen sind groß aber auch Ängste. Jede muss verstanden werden. Wie auch der Heilige Vater Justin auch erklärt, muss auch die vereinte Kirche alle Antworten bieten. Wenn sie das nicht kann,solle es die Vereinigung auch nicht geben.

Ich stehe erst am Anfang der großen Aufgabe der Übersetzung für das Buch die Orthodoxie und die Ökumene. Ich habe große Ehrfurcht und aber auch großen Wunsch diese enorm notwendige Werk als einen kleinen Beitrag zu erbringen.

Ich bitte euch betet für diese Arbeit.

Eine große Bitte habe ich als eine gewöhnliche aber auch gottesfürchtige Gläubige - die bestimmt viele teilen -

Dem Galater Brief folgend:

Galater1, Vers 8

⁸ Aber wenn auch wir oder ein Engel aus dem Himmel euch etwas als Evangelium verkündigte außer dem, was wir euch als Evangelium verkündigt haben: er sei verflucht!

www.bibel-online.net/buch/elberfelder_1905/galater/1/#8

Und aus dem Jochannes 15, 26 :

²⁶ Wenn aber der Sachwalter gekommen ist, den ich euch von dem Vater senden werde, der Geist der Wahrheit, der von dem Vater ausgeht, so wird er von mir zeugen.

www.bibel-online.net/buch/elberfelder_1905/johannes/15/#26

Damit wir die Gnade Gottes nicht verlieren und Ihn nicht erzürnen Den, Den wir lieben, aber auch, da wir unseren Mitmenschen nichts geben können, es sei denn die unveränderten Gaben Gottes - sowohl das Evangelium als auch den ursprünglichen Glauben - mit Gottesfurcht zu gehen in die Herausforderung der Ökumene. Bitte um Verzeihung, wenn es überheblich klingt - doch das ist, was ich fühle!

Als Leuchten können uns allen im Leben aber auch vor allem nun die gemeinsamen Heiligen dienen. Eine ewige Weinrebe aus den Kirchenvätern und Heiligen und Konsilien mögen uns helfen Gottes Wort treu zu verwalten, damit wenn Er kommt nicht von uns enttäuscht wird.

Die ersten Worte im Amt vom residierten Papst Ratzinger : "Ich bin ein einfacher und demütiger Arbeiter und im Weinberg des Herrn" sprachen für eine mögliche ebenwürdige Betrachtung , nähmlich als einen Bischof von Rom, mit anderen Bischöfen der Orthodoxie - wären auch ein Wunsch der orthodoxen Geistlichen. Schließendlich ist es unsere gemeinsame Mutter "Mutter Maria", die demütig, und gebrochen unter dem Kreuze steht - sich nie in den Vordergrund drängt - Platz lässt Gottes wirken - und mit Ihrer Fürbitte die Gnade Gottes herabruft - spricht nicht mehr für Ihre Hingabe zu Gott in Gebet und Demut und Leben einzig für Ihn seit dem 3 Lebensalter trotz der Erbsünde mehr für Ihre Heiligkeit und beispielhafte Verwandlung des Menschen im Diesseits, als wenn der Liebe Gott sie ohne die Last der Erbsünde auf die Welt kommen ließe? Auf jedem Fall ist die Liebe zur Mutter Gottes und die Betrachtung als die Mutter eines jeden einzelnen von uns gemeinsam mit dem jüngsten Apostel Jochanes der Theologe:

Elberfelderbibel von 1905 Jochannes 13,26 und 27: "Als nun Jesus die Mutter sah und den Jünger, welchen er liebte, dabeistehen, spricht er zu seiner Mutter: Weib, siehe, dein Sohn! Dann spricht er zu dem Jünger: Siehe, deine Mutter! (www.bibel-online.com)

Ich bin natürlich natürlich kein Theologe, sondern nur eine einfache orthodoxe Gläubige. Ich weiß nun, dass der verstorbene Vater Konstantin immer zu uns zu pflegen sagte: Vergesst nicht eure Mutter im Himmel. Und so einfach aber vom Herzen haben das einige einfach so übernommen und ihr jede Liturgie Blumen gebracht - Lilien vorallem.

classicalchristianity.com/?s=popovic

So klar wie Vater Justin aber alles gesehen hat - nähmlich den Gott-Menschen Jesus das ist natürlich so eindeutig klar erkennbar, dass der Heilige Geist in Ihm wirkte und alles offenbarte - wenn man das gelesen hat, und so klar auf Jesus blickt, weiß man, dass man eigentlich nichts weiter zu tun braucht - Gott ist alles - und muss alles bleiben - ohne Kompromisse. Ich bin wirklich sehr gespannt auf das Buch Die Orthodoxy und die Ökumene. Verzeiht mir bitte, das ich das nicht schneller schaffe zu übersetzen. Bitte, bitte betet für mich und meine Familie.

Herzliche Grüße Aleksandra

Hallo dear friends from abroad. The only true freedom, hope, salvation and happiness we can find in Gods arms. Jesus spreading his hands on cross invites us into his arms to heal our wounds. So that every pain and unsteadiness can disappear. Where you can carry all the weight of the day by looking at his wounds. I have to admit that my faith abandons me when I have to suffer, but then I remember that there has to be some sense in the happenings, illness and that by living through the pain we humans grow, change, and come closer to God.

Eastern is comming

	And Jesus came back to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and the news of him went through all the country round about.
4:15		And he was teaching in their Synagogues and all men gave him praise.
4:16		And he came to Nazareth, where he had been as a child, and he went, as his way was, into the Synagogue on the Sabbath, and got up to give a reading.
4:17		And the book of the prophet Isaiah was given to him and, opening the book, he came on the place where it is said,
4:18		The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because I am marked out by him to give good news to the poor; he has sent me to make well those who are broken-hearted; to say that the prisoners will be let go, and the blind will see, and to make the wounded free from their chains,
4:19		To give knowledge that the year of the Lord's good pleasure is come.
4:20		And shutting the book he gave it back to the servant and took his seat: and the eyes of all in the Synagogue were fixed on him.
4:21		Then he said to them, Today this word has come true in your hearing.
4:22		And they were all giving witness, with wonder, to the words of grace which came from his mouth

I noticed that many of You are interested about the political topics i wrote about. I am sorry to disappoint You, but I don't want to get too political. Or let me say it this way I will get polital in future but in a different matter then usual. I will try to tell You about the Saints who can help You in the particular conflicts and problems to whom You can pray for help.

Every one who has to lead people suffers temptation of becoming corruptible or unfair or selfish or fall in love with power.

May God help the ones who take the big responsibility, lead them to find the right path to peace. Let them not forget to feel with the suffering people and weak ones. Eventually there is not only human law they will have to stand for answer. "What You do to the smallest of Mine, You did to me" says Jesus.

A loving letter for women in India

Sun, 23 Feb 2014 01:00:00 +0200

A loving letter for women in India

It is hard to be a woman, no matter where one may be living. My loving thoughts are especially with the women of India.

Beginning from the birth and being often abandoned or killed the little girls of India wear a heavy cross. As the father from a close friend

of mine suffered from her gender and tried to kill her for that reason as she was less then one year old. So I quietly and aching understand.

She was operated on her brain and could not awake from the koma afterwards, untill an orthodox monch prayed for her.

- I am talkong about me. Dear God did not forget me and after my mother visited a monk named Georgij in monastery in Tito Veles

and he had prayed for me to God Father, Son and Holy Gost, I woke up from koma. Now I am 36 Year old. I even studied on the

University of Hamburg and I have now two beautifull children - a girl and a boy.

I am sorry. I am sorry for all the little souls, who did not make it, I am so really sorry. The loving, heavenly father has surely

welcomed You above as the father on earth could not. May they all be forgiven.

The ones, who survive are loved and happy in their families and show how wrong it was to deny them or to even think of it.

I don't know where on earth one may find so beautiful women as in India. Expressed in words of an artist,

“You’re the reason that God made the world” or by the words of the bible:

Song of Solomon (The Song of Songs) Chapter 4.7

4:7		You are all fair, my love; there is no mark on you.
4:8		Come with me from Lebanon, my bride, with me from Lebanon; see from the top of Amana, from the top of Senir and Hermon, from the places of the lions, from the mountains of the leopards.
4:9		You have taken away my heart, my sister, my bride; you have taken away my heart, with one look you have taken it, with one chain of your neck!
4:10		How fair is your love, my sister! How much better is your love than wine, and the smell of your oils than any perfume!
4:11		Your lips are dropping honey; honey and milk are under your tongue; and the smell of your clothing is like the smell of Lebanon.
4:12		A garden walled-in is my sister, my bride; a garden shut up, a spring of water stopped.
4:13		The produce of the garden is pomegranates; with all the best fruits, henna and spikenard,
4:14		Spikenard and safron; calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense; myrrh and aloes, with all the chief spices.
4:15		You are a fountain of gardens, a spring of living waters, and flowing waters from Lebanon.
4:16		Be awake, O north wind; and come, O south, blowing on my garden, so that its spices may come out. Let my loved one come into his garden, and take of his good fruits.

Yes, You should be loved and respected. This song, if You should read as whole expresses an

exclusive love, for only one very special person and honor and the bound of two people.

But the song also leads to the exclusive love for only one true God.

In Colossians 3 You can see, that God has made all people equal.

Yes, everyone has his own role and importance but he or she is not less worth or less loved:

Colossians 3:

3:1

If then you have a new life with Christ, give your attention to the things of heaven, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.


3:2		Keep your mind on the higher things, not on the things of earth.
3:3		For your life on earth is done, and you have a secret life with Christ in God.
3:4		At the coming of Christ who is our life, you will be seen with him in glory.
3:5		Then put to death your bodies which are of the earth; wrong use of the flesh, unclean things, passion, evil desires and envy, which is the worship of strange gods;
3:6		Because of which the wrath of God comes on those who go against his orders;
3:7		Among whom you were living in the past, when you did such things.
3:8		But now it is right for you to put away all these things; wrath, passion, bad feeling, curses, unclean talk;
3:9		Do not make false statements to one another; because you have put away the old man with all his doings,
3:10		And have put on the new man, which has become new in knowledge after the image of his maker;
3:11		Where there is no Greek or Jew, no one with circumcision or without circumcision, no division between nations, no servant or free man: but Christ is all and in all.
3:12		As saints of God, then, holy and dearly loved, let your behaviour be marked by pity and mercy, kind feeling, a low opinion of yourselves, gentle ways, and a power of undergoing all things;
3:13		Being gentle to one another and having forgiveness for one another, if anyone has done wrong to his brother, even as the Lord had forgiveness for you:
3:14		And more than all, have love; the only way in which you may be completely joined together.
3:15		And let the peace of Christ be ruling in your hearts, as it was the purpose of God for you to be one body; and give praise to God at all times.
3:16		Let the word of Christ be in you in all wealth of wisdom; teaching and helping one another with songs of praise and holy words, making melody to God with grace in your hearts.
3:17		And whatever you do, in word or in act, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving praise to God the Father through him.
3:18		Wives, be under the authority of your husbands, as is right in the Lord.
3:19		Husbands, have love for your wives, and be not bitter against them.
3:20		Children, do the orders of your fathers and mothers in all things, for this is pleasing to the Lord.
3:21		Fathers, do not be hard on your children, so that their spirit may not be broken.

The 3 first things from which the Word of God is warning are: unchastity, impurity and passion.

As formed by God and being his children, my dear sisters, You are so precious,

unique and worth of love being a child or sister, wife or a mother. You are so much that I cant express.

God says, for one lost sheep He would leave the herd to find it... You are not forgotten.

In the worst moments of being pushed out of the family because Your husband

has died or being led to be burned for that reason or in the moment of rape when they come for You, think of God

and hold on to Him. Call His holy name “Jesus” mine and take the hand of the Christian martyrs

to lead You to salvation on earth or heaven. The people might destroy Your body not Your soul.

COMMON TROPARION FOR MARTYRS Tone 4

Thy Martyrs, O Lord, in their struggles received, crowns of incorruptibility from Thee our God:

for with Thy strength they wiped out tyrants, and overcame demons, rendering them powerless.

By their intercessions, O Christ our God, save our souls.

http://www.christopherklitou.com/apolytikia_for_saints_hieratikon.htm

The Child Saint St. Irini together with St Raphael and Nickolaus,

The holy mother of God, The Archangel Michael standing in honor in front of the shining face of God.

My holy Father rescue me!

Plea dear sisters and You will be heard. I guarantee that to You by my own soul,

and I plea also for You and love You.

To all men in India that give in to that horrible temptation of raping someone

and all those who kill the creatures of God, it will not be forgotten.

The Lord says “everything that You do the smallest of mine, You do to me”.

You might not fear the law but for the sake of Your own souls leave the daughters of God in peace.

If You honor the cows that give birth to calves and give milk, how much more should

You honor the ones that bear your children for You and nurse them.

Someone thinks of You in love

I am sorry I don' know who and where exactly changed the words of the bible in English bible editions.

The orthodox people use mostly the septuangina edition, as we try to keep everything unadulterated.

The unfalsifiable Christian faith You can find in the orthodox church. Ask for help there. In God, we are all family.

Raum für die Liebe zu Gott, Inspiration für das Gedicht zum Psalm

Sun, 12 Jan 2014 23:20:00 +0200

Liebe Besucher dieser Homepage. sehr freue ich mich zu sehen, wenn ihr zu unserem lieben Gott findet. Ich wurde sehr positiv berührt von ein paar besonderen Personen, die das Forum besuchen in einem Land, das durchaus negative Folgen haben kann für Christen. Und habe so unfachmännisch und einfach ein par Gedichte angefagen zu schreiben. Wer selber schreibt, weiß natürlich, dass das Schreiben sehr persönlich ist, aber so ist auch jede Beziehung zu Gott. Ich freue mich über jeden, der zu Christus findet und würde gerne auch vieles über die Orthodoxie erzählen, um euch zu bewahren.

Doch ich denke für uns, die einfachen Gläubigen ist eines mit das Wichtigste, einen wunderbaren und gar wundersamen Raum für das innige Gebet zu bekommen bzw. dass einem der Weg dahin geöffnet wird. Um diese neue Welt, die Orthodoxie, ein wenig als Gefühl euch zu vermitteln habe ich ein kleines Gedicht geschrieben (siehe Literatur). Es ist wahrscheinich sehr einfach und nicht unbedingt toll, es soll aber etwas wunderbares wiedergeben. Schaut einfach mal rein. Ihr habt mich dazu inspiriert. Alles Liebe - Hristos se rodi - Christus ist uns geboren worden -Frohe Weihnachten!
