How can you go to the Liturgy, to the communion of the Eucharist, not feeling yourself holy (“The holy things are for the holy”), faithful to Christ (“catechumens depart, that none of the catechumens remain, only the faithful”), invited by Christ to His Table? How can you not rejoice, not exult, not give thanks?! Do you see yourselves as unworthy? – Then give thanks even more: those who are forgiven much, love much. So are you holy? I know that you are unworthy, that you are sinners, but I ask: are you holy, are you faithful to Christ?! Do not know what to answer?! Then what Christianity can there be. Therefore, if you are not holy (we are not talking about Protestants now – this is complete deception; discern the spirits – the essence is not in words and forms, but in the spirit of these forms, manifestations), then you are not Christians. And you are in double delusion-deception when you call yourselves Christians. Whoever has ears to hear, let him understand.
(It is very important for us to emphasize at every opportunity (where appropriate and not very) on: consciousness, awareness, knowledge, understanding, discernment – without this there can be no spiritual life (the acquisition of catholic consciousness-knowledge by the person). We did not in any way try to say everything about humility (and it is impossible), we primarily wanted to emphasize its most important aspect – conscious true knowledge of reality. The word humility also refers to a virtue: to think humbly of oneself, to humble the proud thought, to humble oneself, to say: “we are unworthy servants, we have only done what we ought to have done,” gratefully accept reality as it is (“according to my deeds, Lord; remember me in Your Kingdom”), etc. About this (specific virtues, including humility as an ascetic good deed) – in the following parts.”
