Matthew 19:13-14
Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should put his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them. 14. But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

A pagan Mohammedan attempts to dominate an Orthodox bishop with his preprogrammed scripts..
Don't be intimidated by external demonstrations of pride or confidence. The Truth rips it all apart..

☦️⚡️ St John of Gothia was a powerful defender of Orthodoxy, especially against the the iconoclast heresy. Later he led a revolt against the Khazar rule. When Khazars managed to return, they exiled and imprisoned him. He escaped and died several years after. His holy relics were returned home to Crimea, his tomb is near the holy mountain (Ayu-Dag).
St John, pray for us!

ON SENSUALITY
...Just as it is impossible to drag a snake over the edge of the tail, because the scales naturally rest against the dragging ones, so it is impossible to start from the extreme parts of the soul in order to survive the invading sensuality from it, if someone does not block this evil from the first entrance. Why does the Mentor of virtue command to keep his head, calling the beginning of vice the head, in which, if it is not allowed, the rest remains inactive. For whoever is hostile to pleasure in general does not succumb to the particular applications of passion. And whoever allowed the beginning of passion into himself, he took a whole beast into himself with it.
- St. Gregory of Nyssa

Don't waste your life with the wrong things. It passes too quick..
James 4:14
Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

"The pretense of worldly politeness
is very harmful,
for it fools a man,
opening his heart
to worldly people;
and in the final analysis
it wastes his piety,
for the worldly don't know
what piety is.
It is like giving golden pounds
to people who only know
bronze pennies."
St Paisios the Athonite (+1994).
