possessed in essence remains demonic
energy remains demonic energy when
many who want to practice magic go to these places
where old wizards lived and dwell to tell you a
incident as soon as I became a bishop
I, uh, I started as a world confessor there in the wide world so...
in I get a call from one of her soles and she says please we have two
the Bulgarians who we bring to our orchards the one says she knows
excellent Greek and she brought her little niece who was 19-20
the little girl who says she has prophetic abilities
has to tell you, says your future, your past
and people go and give her pennies to tell them the
future hey I say to him what do you want me nor a witch I tell him no he says to me after
she believes in the Virgin Mary, she tells me she is Orthodox, the Bulgarians have images
which is what magicians do to fool the religious when they see images
to say that since he has pictures he is good
man and I want to bring it to you, he says.
your wife not to come alone with two Bulgarian mothers to Metropolis
I remember it was the time when our current archimandrite Father Iakovos went to the metropolis and stayed with me, then Iakovos was still in his pants nor
no reader hadn't been a deacon yet it still matters
this came one afternoon together and the wife of our acquaintance and both of them
Bulgarian women, one of whom was, let us say, the one who had the gift of prophecy magic and the other who was the translator since I had a
cross as I have the cross which had a cross in it
relics of Saint Neophytus I have the cross but you have touched it
I said nothing to her of course and she started to say
I tell her you have a gift, I say, and you find the future, yes, she says, do you want to
and I said to her and I said to her and I said to her, "I'm just kidding," and I said to her.
And he started telling me about my past, that you lost your father when you were a kid.
after you lost your brother after you lost your brother, you have a problem with your legs that you can't
indeed after I appeared in my 50s the problem of your hands having slight tremors is hereditary
Well, he just started to find I say, but you were wrong I say, my despot
man to have the witch tell you he told me something about the future that many would like to hear
I say stop it! Stop it! Stop it!
I say I'll know if you are I tell her from God that
is illuminated no one tells me it is from God and their
angels I tell her if she is of God and the angels now she will
understand the difference and I raised the cross so
a little so and I said to her in a low voice in the name of the Father and the Son and the
of the holy spirit what the honest cross is and even to engrave it nor
So I didn't do it. I did a little bit. Hey, tell her.
I said what do you see in here she's got her hand out
so I caught and laughed and laughing time I said pick up the antenna, yes yes he did it
with her hand, and she put out a cry but a terrible cry light light light light light come out of there no
I can't. I have to go. I'm burning up. I told her to tell me what the
light I can't and got up to leave the s.s.s. The others tell her to sit down he tells her
I say to her if it is of the angels and Christ in the name of the Father and of the Son and the Holy Ghost tell me I can't tell her I'm burning and in the
I was burning and got up at the door to go out, Father Jacob was coming out with the lemonades.
And you see what happened, no cowardice in front of the pouring of the glasses.
so many hundred of the relics of Saint Neophytus
that was set up outside in the garden of the cathedral and
He was yelling burn, burn, burn what he's got on him and burn.
So our friend her old man stayed there with his wife and the other woman.
the poor Bulgarian girl ran away, the poor Bulgarian girl who was brought by her aunt who brought her
I tell them you understand that it is not of God if it was of God I tell them this
the light he sees will call her called will not say I am burning e burned the
people who have spirits inside them
well, or may one's heartburn when he feels and says the
wish to feel warmth but this is sweet warmth I say this because I
remembered the gospel that says that the apostles when Cleopas was together in
march towards mice our heart of comma says there are sweet heart-burnings
but that causes repentance, not voices, not shouting, not running away and burning.
Only the demon feels it, I tell you these things, that you may see that
it is possible to distinguish between what is authentic and what is false what is
of the demonic what is divine and angelic now in the investigation I have made
then with our dacoura professor, I remember finding I looked to see what it is
the magic struck me as an old
encyclopedia publications say encyclopedia sun the old perhaps
you have met her and she was writing the article as we say what is she magic you hear what
definitions I gave magic says it is pre
scientific science
Listen magic is pre-scientific science that is demonic
definition to fool the readers and to go to the
since it is science to learn the laws of this science that
existed before science and chemistry and physics and Newton and all
those who appeared in the 16th century and after with the inventions in Western Europe
at least magic is an ancient phenomenon ancient
a phenomenon that here in our region, as you know, we have a very great blessing.
that has been proven worldwide now this blessing is the
in the presence of St. Cyprian and St. Justine here in the neighboring village of Menio, St. Cyprian was
a magician, a great scientist of magic, who, when he attempted a simple

Putin sent me a letter and said to me that we had heard that you have relics of saints Cyprian and Justine to bring to Moscow because many
says Russians instead of going to the clergy go to the
and St. Cyprian has the grace to dispel magical energies
and we took the remains with Father Shava, I remember.
Yes, now you remember the date, Father Carp, huh?
I remember when it was 5 in 2005 we went so well, well, a lot of terrible things happened
things then all of Moscow came and knelt before the holy man.
Kypriano was a monastery that hosted for 10 days how many people in the

200 cadets blacken your eye so instead of arriving at 5:00 the
in the afternoon we arrived at 9 p.m. The people were waiting for the nuns
we all came down and we officially came down and with a slight embarrassment and
so we were waiting for a reception to be thrown
rose petals to our incense and incense had them and incense
We had incense, but instead of a pomegranate we had a pomegranate, you think I was holding an olive.
I so proudly then I was very well in my health proudly proudly proudly the cart of the saints and around me the few fathers who were my little ones
and I eat another one and eat another one and say, "What was it?
But by the time we got there, there wasn't any left.
And I also say in these rose petals in this reception I say, Lord have mercy, holy man.
my carp was open and I closed it so it wouldn't get dirty so what is this I said never again hey and shouted in Russian to
howling to make the dogs the cats the cattle the oxen growl well
Lord have mercy, I understood Father Savvas to faint, my Holy Mother, my lady.
Well, there was also the father of Father Roscius, who is Russian, he says to him, Father Rossi.
We have a good reception yes he tells me yes he tells me yes he tells me I tell him what your patriots say in Russian better not tell you tell him.
I tell him I tell him I tell him I tell him so much that we have seen, I tell him I tell him well, the poor old woman, the sergeant.
He kept saying "dumbass" and "sorry, dumbass.

meanwhile, Russia was poor and we are rich then look at the
the story of God the plans of God e needed us but they had
more than us since I remember them in line waiting for the monastery to give them bread to eat to the poor of Moscow
then 2005 the
2005 when as soon as I saw them I said to him, his holiness
I say I've got a better idea to give these to the old lady
the Julian woman who was abbess there at the Virgin Mary
I said I'll send you an old woman and I said I'll send her a small small piece.
I'll make you a picture of the relic of the mennus.
to put it on the picture and so I tell her to build a
chapel of St. Cyprian and be united with the Virgin Mary the Merciful
and when the Muscovites have trouble looking and so I answer how
we manage people
so that those who are engaged in magic may bring her a holy doctor
I say to her that we should open a hospital on duty as we have St. Cyprian and St. Justine in

left dedicated to St. Cyprian and the relic I gave her on the
picture and full of dedication and we have a priest here telling me that he comes every
fourth she makes a blessing and reads blessings and here come people who go to the magicians and are healed and this is the power of
our faith of our saints of the holy of holies

we may come to the wrong conclusions, the best we have is

church the man who repents daily and says sorry, Jesus Christ
I cursed John with my anger, I was jealous of Demeter, forgive me.
Christ, it automatically cleanses you if you look and sin persists.
within you go to the spiritual and the holy

Give her a curiosity like us the cross-bunny the black-bunny the middle river
e the monastery of the counselor of Christ, that is, the male monasteries of Cyprus Trooditissa
do they do they do they do all year-round functions will you tell the fathers though
that you know is such a case and I want a priest who is of
fasting and prayer and cleansing man e and give the name of that man to just while
he acts with the help of the evil spirits of the negative we will
send the Holy Spirit you will see that his strength will be weakened if he has a corner of goodness e

of the cross yes I was when I was a student in Greece in Patras yes and
I had seen with my own eyes that possessed at 15 yes they had him
bring to the church of the holy Andreas apostle Andreas in Patras, and
screaming from the middle of the church as he staggered towards the old
and the holy of holies at that time sprouts like yes don't they
we said now yes and then go father there I was ashamed monsters were pulling him like an animal with the force to take him the closer he went the more he went wild and
said the father said bring him he says bring him let him go he said the whole world was upset when he saw this event but he took communion as he was screaming and
calmed down like an as a man calms down as a man who issues to calm down will
calm because it takes Christ the matter to leave the spirit that the

task is no easy task at all and especially not easy to do
by priests who are people who take great care of themselves are
clean fast and praying intensely is not for all priests
to read exorcisms another now the simple wish that we read of the saint
carp that in essence this wish is a wish for the kingdom of heaven and
we seek the help of the saint this is another exorcism repeated in
ancient church as we have the spiritual all are the priests but
not everyone is a confessor and not everyone is a confessor
spiritualists, I will not go into it now what I mean e a special class of priests especially those who fast more and
they are humble and elderly playing the role elderly they are exorcists the bishops the bishops who have all
the archpriest grace but the bishops must also be very careful of the
themselves if they are careless in anything they should not make exorcisms, and it is well beforehand to get the blessing of a righteous man.
I'm a human ace and her aunt, you know what I mean about a grandmother

The old man and I heard it as the voice of God, so it needs a lot of attention from the priests.
