Let’s say a few words about antichrists, false apostles, false prophets, false teachers, and their cynical criminal activities. They do not merely reinterpret the Word (“letter”) of the rite (Sacrament), prayers (and indeed Scripture, Tradition), but (very often) they don’t even pay attention to the “letter,” which by itself (even without the Spirit, Truth) only by form, by flesh, exposes heresy and heretical blasphemy. Heretics completely ignore what the Church testifies and to what (its experience of God-knowledge through the Sacraments of communion with God), even literally (by form-letter), unequivocally points, exposing the deceit of the antichrist and his servants. (And they have great success because nowadays there are few who know Scripture or at least sincerely, fervently study the Word of God, or even simply read the Bible; and as for those who know the Power of God, there’s nothing to say – you won’t find one with a searchlight in broad daylight). We had the opportunity to illustrate this truth with a real example – our discussion with the heretics of the UOC-KP (now the licensed-autocephalous OCU), when they (the heretics) interpreted our books, the “letter,” filling them with a meaning diametrically opposed to what the letter speaks: for example, we write “white,” and the heretics read and interpret: “black”; it is written “white,” and they read “black”; although both the context and the letter testify that “white” = white. Antichrists, heretics (OCU) do not even pay attention to the “letter” (not to mention the content, the spirit), they are not concerned that the “letter” testifies to the diametrically opposite of their heretical blasphemy! Antichrists, heretics, of various kinds of “false…” – deceitful hypocrites, servants of the shameless, cynical, deceiver-liar devil – look you in the eye and cynically lie, slander, blaspheme the Truth and say: “it is written there,” while the “letter,” the “form,” speaks about something entirely opposite to their heretical blasphemy, they (deceitful hypocrites, burned in their conscience) are not interested. The same is true with the Eucharist: what the “letter” of the rite (primarily the prayers) of the Eucharist (Liturgy) speaks of – they are not interested in, they do not pay attention to it (the letter and what the Church testifies, telling about its experience of God-knowledge), but teach their heretical, pagan fantasies (you can provide examples yourself by taking, for instance, the practice and teaching of the OCU synagogue and examining them in the light of the true understanding of the Eucharist, about which we testify, or at least in the light of the “letter” of the rites of the Liturgies of St. John Chrysostom and St. Basil the Great – see part II).

Satan (and his servants: antichrists, various kinds of false…) first ignores (does not see, does not notice) how and what the Church says-testifies (we are now talking primarily about the “letter,” which often even in the flesh (literally) unequivocally points to the Truth, to the God-knowledge of the Church). And when he is shown (pointed to with a finger) and told: read what is written (at least by the letter), – and the letter (the “letter” speaks-testifies) says something diametrically opposite (or not at all what the heretics, antichrists, pagans, false… teach and preach), then Satan and his servants begin to cynically lie to your face, saying that it is written exactly as they (the heretics, antichrists) claim (although even by the letter they speak the opposite of the Word of God, not that and not in that way; and there’s no need to even speak about the spirit-content). Or they accuse you of misinterpreting what is written here, in Scripture, and incorrectly interpreting the Holy Fathers (heretics say: “white” is not white, “black” is not black). Nowadays, there are many such antichrists, servants of Satan – deceitful hypocrites, burned in their conscience (see 1 Tim. 4:1-2), vain talkers, and deceivers (see Titus 1:10), who deceive people with philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition (according to the traditions of the elders), according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ (see Col. 2:8). But people (“Christians” primarily) want exactly such (false) “teachers,” “leaders,” “guides,” “shepherds” for themselves and choose them (see 2 Tim. 4:3-4). Be vigilant, because today, in these last days (which have been ongoing for 2000 years), everything drowns in deceit, hypocrisy, sealed with madness and blindness, ignorance, and a vicious circle of indifference (everyone for themselves), irresponsibility-corruption… Be vigilant! Pray that you do not fall into temptation and that you may at least come out a little from the deceit-delusion in which the whole world is drowning! Whoever sincerely seeks (knocks, asks) for the Truth, God-Truth will find and give the Holy Spirit (first as a Gift (service) – light on the path of repentance, and in due time, when a person humbles themselves before God, makes their heart (by God’s mercy – many tearful prayers, pleas for mercy-salvation) merciful, – baptizes with the Holy Spirit, that is, saves!).
