| Religie | | Scris de Fericitul Gavriil Dionisiatul | | Joi, 27 Aprilie 2023 10:59 |  Deși Sf. Munte este dominat de probleme bisericești, așa cum a fost de la bun început, în ceea ce privește așa numitul Calendar vechi (iulian), pătimește, însă, din pricina urmărilor schimbărilor calendarului. Părinții athoniți s-au împărțit în două tabere: cei care-l pomenesc pe patriarhul ecumenic și cei care nu-l pomenesc, deoarece îl socotesc drept pricină a acestei schimbări în cadrul Bisericii.

One is nearer God's Heart in a garden
Than anywhere else on earth. For He broke it for us in a garden
Under the olive-trees
Where the angel of strength was the warden

The passions bind the will, and do not give it space in which to act; it struggles, like one bRead more |
| Religie | | Scris de Karamazov | | Sâmbătă, 07 Mai 2022 08:41 |  Saint Demetrios, together with Saint George, are the two brave young lads of Christendom. They are down here on earth, and the two archangels Michael and Gabriel are in heaven. In ancient times they were painted without arms, but in later years they were depicted armed with swords and spears and dressed in iron shirts.
