Again we repeat: what other temple does a person who has become a Temple of the Holy Spirit (the Holy Trinity and all the Saints) need?! What priest-priest does someone need who has become a royal priesthood and whom the Lord Jesus Christ Himself serves – the only true High Priest, the Almighty God?! The Lord of heaven and earth serves me, unites me with God in the Holy Spirit – what other priest do I need?! Therefore, in the New Testament, in the Church-Eucharist, in the Body of Christ, in the Kingdom of God, there are no (and cannot be) intermediaries (there is one “mediator” between God and man – the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God), priests-priests. All the Sacraments (the communion of God and man in the Holy Spirit) are directly performed by the Lord God Jesus Christ, the only Priest, High Priest (the Almighty God)! But who among the “Christians” (water-baptized Jews, who, like circumcised Jews, are still waiting for the coming of the Antichrist), temple priests-priests, sellers (of religious services, needs, souvenirs, amulets, aesthetic impressions, sensations…) and buyers (“holy,” “consecrations,” “dedications”…) can hear (understand) these simple truths, and most importantly: feel the need for cleansing “Christian” temples from paganism, magic, madness, absurd trades (“sacraments,” “grace,” “holy,” “consecrated”…)… and place the Person of Jesus Christ (the Eucharist – communion with Jesus Christ, the Father and the Holy Spirit and all the Saints) and the word of God – catechism – at the center! Stop these absurd, pagan mutterings, babblings: give, grant, have mercy, intercede, help, thank for what you gave and ask for more and more. And hear: God is Love! Love! Do you hear?! God is Love, Who loves you always and everywhere, in everything and through everything!!! Stop saying these absurd, endless: “Lord! Lord!…” Stop whining, complaining, and start repenting (changing, not foolishly trying to change God-Love) – love God, that is, fulfill God’s commandments, God’s will! There is nothing more God can add to what you have been given (here and now) (and so it is every moment of your being – see above about God’s Providence) – to receive more, you need to repent, to become like God!
Christians do not need a temple – for them, it is “skubala.” A temple is paganism, a concession to the Jews, who wanted to have the same as the pagans (just as with the king: they wanted a king for themselves… see 1 Samuel 8:5-9), and it is not a blessing from God. “David… begged to find a dwelling for the God of Jacob. Solomon built Him a temple. However, the Most High does not live in temples made with hands (but in the hearts of the humble and contrite, in “temple”-hypostases (“I in You, and You in Me”; the dwelling of the hypostasis is the hypostasis), cleansed with tears of repentance and prepared for the indwelling of the Holy Trinity by fervently fulfilling all God’s commandments, with prayers and acts of mercy – see John 14:23, Acts 10 and others), as the prophet says: ‘Heaven is My throne, and the earth is My footstool. What kind of house will you build for Me,’ says the Lord, ‘or what place for My rest? Has not My hand made all these things?’ Stiff-necked people! People with uncircumcised hearts and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit, just as your fathers did, so do you…” (see Acts 7:45-51). “The time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem (not in handmade temples, not in holy places, not before shrines, icons, crosses, relics, amulets…)… But the hour is coming, and now is, when true worshipers will worship the Father in Spirit and Truth, for the Father seeks such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in Spirit and Truth” (see John 4:20-24). So, temples are for pagans, for Old Testament religious people (to prepare them to receive the Messiah, the Savior, to be baptized in the Holy Spirit), that is, for the catechumens. And what do the catechumens need (students)? – Learning the word of God, God’s commandments, preparing for baptism in the Holy Spirit. There is no other true, worthwhile purpose. (A school (a building with all the equipment: books, textbooks, libraries, laboratories, classrooms, gyms, etc.) is made a school by the educational process (the students’ education) that takes place there, not by the building and all that is in it by themselves (which are only auxiliary means of the educational process). The main thing is to have a teacher (who teaches) and students (who learn) – this is what makes a school (teachers, professors, and students – an institute, a university). So, where there is an educational process between teachers and students (instructors and students) – this is a school (institute), and the premises or space where the educational process takes place are called a school (institute) – it can be an apartment, a cave, a park, a school, an institute… And the premises, the buildings of a school (which were built for one purpose – for education, learning, and for a certain time were used for this purpose, may eventually become a “den of robbers” and use everything that was created for education not for its intended purpose, not for education, but for darkness, crippling) can become a brothel, a restaurant, a mafia office, a drug warehouse, and a “den of robbers”… Similarly, temples – schools of catechism, where catechism, preparation for “adult,” “independent,” “responsible” Eternal Life should take place, can become dens of robbers…). Now, in Orthodox temples, there is anything (all sorts of paganism, all kinds of magic, madness, trades, buying and selling…), except for the one necessary thing – CATECHISM: individually, personally for each catechumen “day and night for three years with tears,” with an individual, direct (teacher-catechumen) approach… (see Acts 20:31)! The most you can hear there is the priest’s sermon, which is part of the script of priestly parades, theater (with secret, mystical prayers-incantations that need to be muttered for “something” magical to happen), where the priest says something (because he has to say something) to the buyers-spectators. In the previous parts of the “Introduction…,” we testified about the state of the Orthodox churches, and for example, we took the modern OCU (renamed Jewish synagogue UOC KP – heretics, now also with licenses and tomos), in which there is no Eucharist (heretics cannot have Eucharist, cannot have Sacraments: the necessary condition for the Sacrament’s completion is Orthodox faith; and what to say about heresy, as in the synagogue of the OCU they do not even approach the chalice – communion is once or twice a year. We talked about baptism – that it is valid only if preceded by catechism, resulting in faith in the Lord Jesus Christ from the whole (humble, contrite, merciful) heart: “If you believe in Jesus Christ the Son of God with all your heart, you may be baptized (perform the rite of the Sacrament of baptism); there are no obstacles, impediments for the baptism of the Holy Spirit, for the descent of the Holy Spirit on the catechumen; therefore, water baptism will be a testimony of the baptism of the Holy Spirit” (see Acts 8:36-39). And without faith (yours, not some “godparents”, sponsors, etc.): people will baptize you with water, but the Holy Spirit will not baptize! God is Love!) and there is no catechism (personal, “day and night for three years with great tears…”), teaching the word of God, God’s will, God’s commandments, Orthodox faith! Therefore, the temples of the OCU (heretics) are dens of robbers, synagogues of Satan (“By their fruits you will know them”; we testified about the criminal activity (fruits) of this synagogue of the Antichrist (the current OCU) in part III)! So what should be done? Is there repentance for heretics, Satanists, Jews-God-killers who continue to crucify Jesus Christ the Son of God?! Yes! God is Love! He knocks on the heart of every person, asking for permission to dwell in it and fill it with the fullness of Divinity, the Holy Spirit! So, start repenting, hurry, prodigal sons (wherever you are now – even at the bottom of hell, no matter what sins, crimes, deicide, Satanism you have committed) of the Heavenly Father, return home (to the Kingdom of God, to Jesus Christ), without hesitation – the Lord has long, even before the creation of the world, forgiven everyone for everything! God is Love! “Come to Me – the Lord Jesus Christ – all of you!” Start repenting, catechizing, that is, cleanse your temples for the word of God (total catechism) and then there will be an opportunity for the Lord to perform the Sacrament (Baptism, Eucharist… to give the Holy Spirit) in the heart cleansed by catechism, humble, merciful, full of Orthodox faith. What is catechism (knowing God’s will, Orthodox faith, fervent fulfillment of all God’s commandments – acquiring God-receptive humility-knowledge) – we have already talked a lot about this (in this booklet-pharmacy, and in previous ones), if you have any questions, do not be shy (after all, it is about your salvation), call our pharmacy “experts” on the laws of spiritual life, repentance.
