No one can do evil! Only to oneself! God is Love! The criminal, doing evil to others (more precisely, trying to do evil to another), does evil only to himself, multiplies his hell! Therefore, no one is to blame for my sufferings and generally for the sufferings of other people! (Whoever has ears to hear, let them understand!). On the contrary: each of us is guilty before each other in everything! – And what is our fault (if we have not harmed anyone and cannot!)? We are guilty only in that we did not have mercy, did not love those suffering in hell (each in his own, personal hell)! – What did we owe? Love! Good deeds, full of the Holy Spirit! We will be judged (at the Last Judgment of Love) not for what we did (this was all for everyone’s good by God’s Mercy (Who directs everything for Good)), but for what we did not do, for the Good we did not do (and we were created for good deeds!)! Repentance – is the acquisition of the Holy Spirit (running to the Kingdom of God, a war for the Kingdom of God, looting (see Luke 16:16) the Kingdom of God by the “poor”, “poor in spirit”), not lamenting for the past (“looking back”) and grieving for committed deeds (crimes, sins against others: offenses, wrongs, tears, pain, blood, murders, robberies, fornication, etc.), which by God’s Mercy were good for everyone, for Good!!! We owe everyone Good, the Holy Spirit (“Creation eagerly awaits the revealing of the sons of God, Spirit-bearers!”) – it is never too late to do Good for everyone – for in God, everyone is alive!!! Therefore, hurry to do Good (by the Holy Spirit), repay debts (to those whom you owe, whom you “wronged”, whom you “did” evil to), and to begin with, so that we can do Good – acquire the Holy Spirit, become members of the Body of Christ, who alone do Good (Love) by the Holy Spirit in the name of Jesus Christ!!! Therefore, in joy and with hope in God, Who is Love, hurry to the school of the catechumens, ask that Christians proclaim you, prepare you for the Operation, for Baptism-Marriage with Christ by the Holy Spirit!
Do not torment yourself for allegedly wronging, offending someone in the past – this is impossible!!! God is Love (everyone wrongs themselves, does evil to themselves – outside me is Love and Goodness, God’s Providence)! You owe nothing to anyone, except for love! (Therefore, do not try to return to the past (which no longer exists!) and, mentally transferring yourself to that time, do not strive not to commit the sin that you then committed (only to yourself and against yourself!), do not try not to do the evil that you did (only to yourself!), – but in the present (real) here and now humble yourself (accept your hell, keep your mind in hell: “I deserve according to my deeds, accept my hell”, but do not despair: “remember me, Lord, Ineffable Love, in Your Kingdom!”) and Love, seek Love, fight for Love! This is true, Orthodox repentance!!!). You owe everyone and yourself only one thing – Love! And Love – is God, the Holy Spirit! Therefore, acquire the Holy Spirit (Love) and Love – repay debts, offenses (and do not gnaw, do not torment yourself for sins against neighbors! You did not harm them (neighbors, others), but you owed them Love! So repay each and yourself fourfold – multiple Love of the Holy Spirit!). We will be judged not for what we did (evil or “good”), but for what we did not do (it is still Good in the end result), but for what we did not do (did not Love). “Everything you did not do for one of these least (the needy – every person, neighbors), you did not do for Me!” (see about God’s Judgment in Matthew 25). The Lord never asks: who were you, what and to whom you did – but who you are now: Do you Love or not Love? Do you want to Love or not? Repentance: forgetting the past – what is behind and rushing into the Coming Kingdom of God, which has come and is coming into my heart! Therefore, we should not grieve, not gnaw at ourselves, not despair (oh, what have I done: how much I have sinned, killed, fornicated, stolen, wronged, orphaned, made widows… you, by God’s Mercy, only injured yourself!), but run to Christ, the Savior, Who alone fills our hell (hell – emptiness, darkness, abyss (which we increase by doing evil), which can be filled, filled only by God, the Ocean of God’s Love, Divine Being!) – with Light, Truth, Love, Being! (Example of repentance: the wise thief, who “first” entered Paradise, and how much evil he did (killed, robbed, orphaned…) in the past, he himself testified that “he receives according to his deeds”, that is, he deserves that heavy cross death (see Luke 23:39-43)! Repentance – humility and trust-giving oneself to Christ).
Pagans say: if you want to change the world – start with yourself! And in the Church we declare and testify exactly the opposite (do not be surprised: the words may be the same, but the spirit is diametrically opposite)! Outside of you is the Kingdom of God – it remains for you to change (only) yourself (you are not the first criminal – but the last and the only one!), to repent and let Him (the Holy Spirit) in, become Good! Do you want to live in a world where there are no criminals, no evil, but only Good?! Repent! You are the last criminal, who transforms this world (in yourself) into hell (for yourself). Acquire the Spirit of Peace (receive the Holy Spirit) and everything around you will be pacified!!! The Lord has taken care of the external (the world and everyone in it) – He has saved, Deified! And you take care of yourself – receive Salvation, the Holy Spirit! What revolutions, coups, putches, holy wars, crusades, Bartholomew’s nights, religious wars “for the Orthodox faith”, “Catholic”… can be discussed among Christians?! Or catechumens?!
