Beloved, let us not deceive ourselves and remember: whoever does not have in himself (tangibly) the Holy Spirit – he is not a Christian, not of Christ (see Rom. 8); whoever sins unto death – he is not a Christian! Therefore, whoever you are (and we have already proven – God-Love allows everything: and for Christian churches to degenerate into synagogues of Satan! Be vigilant!) – pope, patriarch, most holy, blessed, high-.., highest-.., proto-.., archi-… – start preparing for baptism (by the Holy Spirit), for unity with Christ in His Body (do not deceive yourself, man, that you are someone, being no one; and the signs-fruits of Christians-Spirit-bearers and pagans (“baptized” and “unbaptized”) are obvious: by their fruits you will know them! And the Holy Spirit cannot be unseen-unfelt in oneself!!! Do not deceive yourselves!). What rite of the Sacrament the Church will perform over you (whether they repeat the rite of water baptism and anointing with Chrism – bring you to the operating room to Christ the Doctor through the same doors and corridors or otherwise (e.g., through confession-repentance)) – does not matter (as the Holy Spirit pleases, so the Church, living and acting by the Holy Spirit, will perform)! The main thing is that you are proclaimed, ready to receive the Holy Spirit. And how and when the Lord will perform this Sacrament – it is not our business to know the times and seasons, but we need to know that It absolutely does not depend on the rites (rites are for people, not for God, they are needed for people (for testimony), not for God Love, Who breathes where He wants and when He wants, the main thing is that there is someone to breathe on, that there are proclaimed, ready to receive Him!). (The purpose of human life is the acquisition of the Holy Spirit!!!). Therefore, beloved, check yourselves (are you in the Holy Spirit?! are you proclaimed?!), do not let yourself be deceived – each one will stand before God’s Judgment, and there are tested not words-dreams, but deeds-states-spirits! Let us check ourselves, whether we are of Christ (= whether we are in the Holy Spirit), if not – God is Love – let us hasten to open by repentance, proclamation, obedience-slavery to the Truth the doors of our hearts to the One Who stands Humbly-Lovingly by them and knocks gently with Providence-Love, desiring with unrestrained Divine Eros that we drink this Ocean of Love (the fullness of the Holy Spirit), let into our home, that we become the temple of the Holy Spirit, the fullness of the Godhead by Grace! Let us become poor and humble to acquire the Poor and Humble, obedient (to the Truth) and meek, to unite with the Obedient and Meek and find eternal rest, eternal bliss in union with the Lord Jesus Christ, and in Jesus – with the Father Love of the Holy Spirit! Glory to You, God! Glory to You, Inexpressible Love! Glory to You, Incomprehensible Mercy, Praise and Thanksgiving forever! So, God will not Baptize the unprepared (God is Love!), only capable of receiving the Sacrament, and the ability, readiness to receive Baptism is the fruit of zealous preparation-proclamation! No one will ever baptize the unproclaimed (unless the priests perform the rite-ceremony – they can do anything)!
The Lord brought not peace, but a sword to the earth (to this world, which lies in evil)! With His coming (the Messiah-King of the Kingdom of God, Good and Love) began the “sacred liberation war” against the occupier – the devil and all forces of evil. The Lord won – destroyed death (man and God are united forever), emptied Hell (Hades – the kingdom of the dead is destroyed, but not all the dead have entered Life yet), and gives everyone the power of the Holy Spirit to overcome hell and enter the Kingdom of God, to drive out evil and the devil from their being and fill their hell-emptiness-darkness with Paradise, God, the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, for more than 2000 years, the “sacred” (for the sanctification of everyone and everything by the Holy Spirit) liberation war has been ongoing! Every Christian is a soldier of Christ, a death-defying cross-bearer (who faces death every day, dies every day for Christ, ready to die for Christ at any time!), who is always on the front line, at the forefront, fighting not for life, but for death, to defeat with the power of the Holy Spirit death, hell, the devil that occupied his being. (Christians testify to this “sacred war” by the Holy Spirit in all Holy Scripture, especially (even in the letter) it is described in Revelation – the whole book of Apocalypse depicts the fate of the Church in history and the war of Christians with god-opposing diabolic forces (see Rev. 11-17; “And when they (Christians) finish their testimony (about Jesus Christ, about God Love, and all God’s Truth), the beast that comes up out of the abyss will make war with them (throughout the history of the Church in this world – 3½ years (days, times) – the Church performs its testimony about the Truth, about Jesus Christ, and the devil, by the grace of God, wages war with the saints, that is, with Christians), and overcome them, and kill them (kills, torments, tortures, persecutes… in this world Christians are always persecuted, crucified!!!)”; “And the dragon (the devil) was enraged with the woman (the Church), and went off to make war with the rest of her children (with Christians, with every Christian), who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus”; “And it was given to him (Satan, the devil) to make war with the saints (Christians) and to overcome them” – see Rev. 11: 7, 12: 17, 13: 7, etc.). The Lord takes into His army (Baptizes) only the conscious, brave, who want Jesus Christ to be their Lord, not the occupier the devil, who renounce Satan and all servants of evil and acknowledge as their Lord, King, and Master only the Son of God Jesus Christ, who consciously, voluntarily swear absolute loyalty to the Lord Jesus Christ, even to death, death on the cross-martyrdom! What they prove (testing themselves, verifying their strength and desire-willingness to be a Christian – a soldier of Christ’s army) during proclamation (a course of a young fighter – preparation for the oath): every day they take up their cross (keep their mind in hell) and go to Christ, to go to the Father in Christ (and do not fall into despair, but bravely, steadfastly wait for deliverance from the Lord, for the Power from Heaven (the Holy Spirit), to overcome the devil and all evil-hell in their heart – so that the Lord reigns in me, so that I become the temple of the Most Holy Trinity and all the saints)! So, after baptism (the oath and endowment with Power from on high – the Holy Spirit) the baptized (Christian) is sent not to the Elysian fields, not on a romantic journey, not to a comfortable, happy life in satiety and abundance, health and prosperity, but to the front, to war, to martyrdom-witnessing about Jesus Christ and the coming of the Kingdom of God!!! (If, for example, you compare our testimony with the testimony of the Apostle John the Theologian, who conveyed to us (God’s slaves) “the revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him,” writing it down in a book-letter (Apocalypse-Revelation), know that the number 3½ (three and a half: 3.5 years, 3.5 days, 42 months (= 3.5 years), 1260 days (= 3.5 years)) is the time of the “sacred war” (John took this number-symbol from the history of the Maccabean liberation wars, particularly the sacred war against the pagan occupiers, which lasted three and a half years), it is the time of the Church in history (from Pentecost to Parousia (eschaton, “Second” coming of Christ), the end of history, this world), the time of the life-fighting of every Christian from baptism to repose (transition to the 3rd phase)).
