Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

☦️🕯️Christ prayed for those that crucified Him: 'Father, count not this sin against them; they know not what they do.' Archdeacon Stephen prayed for those who stoned him so that the Lord would not judge this sin against them. And so we, if we wish to retain grace, must pray for our enemies. If you do not find pity on a sinner who will suffer in flames, then you do not carry the grace of the Holy Spirit, but rather an evil spirit; and while you yet live, you must free yourself from his clutches through repentance.🕯️☦️

Matthew 7:3-5
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? 4. Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? 5. Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.

Once elder Paisios the Athonite gave an example of a mother who asked God to grant her patience. “Her little child then comes in, and as soon as she has the table set for dinner, he pulls on the table cloth and everything spills on the floor. At such times it’s as if the child is saying to his mother: “Mama, be patient!”
All our everyday life is given to us to learn and try, to become better, closer to God.

Do you wish to commune with God in your mind by receiving a perception of that delight which is not enslaved to the senses? Pursue mercy; for when something that is like unto God is found in you, then that holy beauty is depicted by Him. For the whole sum of the deeds of mercy immediately brings the soul into communion with the unity the glory of the Godhead’s splendor.

Israel ran out of churches to bomb in Gaza so now they are bombing churches in Lebanon. This is Saint Georges church in Yaroun, South Lebanon. Western Christian Zionists won’t say a word.

The jewel of the Museum of Christianity: a dome rising to the heavens
In the center of New Chersonesos stands a monumental structure – the only museum of Christianity in Russia.
One of its key architectural features is the majestic dome with a diameter of 31 meters, which is made according to the prototype of the dome of St. Sophia Cathedral in Istanbul.
Its huge base creates not only a visual effect of grandeur and monumentality, but also technically verified spatial solutions.
The Christogram dome is crowned. This is the monogram of the name of Christ.
An open observation deck with stunning views of the entire park and St. Vladimir's Cathedral is organized around the dome.
One of the innovative solutions within the framework of the project was the creation of a safe route for visitors under the dome itself.
Symmetrical ramps arranged in a semicircle allow you to smoothly climb to the upper levels of the building.

☦️🕯️THE HERETICAL ICON FOR WHAT IS CALLED“ THE HOLY FAMILY,” WHICH IS NOT EXIST IN THE EASTERN ORTHODOX CHURCH 🕯️☦️
The depictions of the "Holy Family" are based on innovations of Catholicism, which has in modern times instituted a Feast of the Holy Family. As one Roman Catholic scholar has remarked, in contrasting the Catholic feast centered on the Holy Family to the Christian Feasts of antiquity, “(The Feast of the Holy Family) ...is a product of our modern age, the times to which we belong.” In traditional Orthodox Iconography, the Christ Child is properly portrayed, not alone with St. Joseph, but rather alone with His Mother, thereby stressing the dogma that He is “a Son without a father, Who was begotten of the Father without a mother before the ages.”
In the Orthodox Church, we have many holy families, such as Joachim and Anna with the Theotokos, Zechariah and Elizabeth with John the Forerunner, the family of Basil the Great, the family of Gregory Palamas, the family of Eustathios Plakidas.
