Ἡ θέση τοῦ Ἁγίου Πορφυρίου γιά τίς ἐλεύθερες σχέσεις-The position of St. Porphyrios regarding free relations

Anastasios

Ο αγιότατος Όσιος γενικώς ήταν τελείως αντίθετος στις νεοορθόδοξες – νεονικολαϊτικές διδασκαλίες περί ελεύθερων σχέσεων με πρόσχημα την αγάπη. Γνώριζε ότι οι διδασκαλίες αυτές ωθούν τους ανθρώπους και μάλιστα τους νέους στον ερωτισμό, στην ελευθεριότητα, στις σαρκικές αμαρτίες και στις διαστροφές. Δυστυχώς, αυτές οι ιδέες εισβάλλουν στην Εκκλησία ως προοδευτικές, φιλελεύθερες, αντιπουριτανικές, αντιζηλωτικές και εκσυγχρονιστικές….

Saint Elder Porphyrios taught that precondition of life in Christ, is the crucifixion- killing of the passions, the necrosis to the world, the renunciation of the secular mind.

Anastasios

To joy, from dejection (Saint Porphyrios of Kavsokalyvia)

hristospanagia5

Many of our saints changed dejection into joy through their love for Christ. In other words, they took this spiritual force which the devil wished to destroy and gave it to God, transforming it into joy and exultation. Prayer and the worship of God gradually transforms dejection and turns it into joy. » Venerable Porphyrios of Kavsokalyvia Source: …

Put some effort Venerable – Porphyrios of Kavsokalyvia

hristospanagia5

The indolent, the idle and the lazy are not all right with God. Laziness isn’t a good thing at all. Indolence is a sickness, it’s a sin. God doesn’t want us to be indolent. Great effort, movement, labour and action are a virtue. » Venerable Porphyrios of Kavsokalyvia Source: pemptousia.com  http://www.diakonima.gr/2015/06/19/put-some-effort-venerable-porphyrios-of-kavsokalyvia/

It’s not food Venerable – Porphyrios of Kavsokalyvia

hristospanagia5

It’s not food or favourable living conditions that ensure our health. It’s a holy life, the life of Christ. I know ascetics who fasted very strictly and never had anything wrong with them. Nobody risks getting ill from fasting. Nobody’s ever done so.   » Venerable Porphyrios of Kavsokalyvia Source:pemptousia.com   http://www.diakonima.gr/2015/05/10/its-not-food-venerable-porphyrios-of-kavsokalyvia/
