My new book "The UFO Deception: An Orthodox Christian Perspective" can be viewed here: www.amazon.com/s?i=digital-text&rh=p_27%3AFather+Spyridon+Bailey&s=relevancerank&text=Father+Spyridon+Bailey&ref=dp_byline_sr_ebooks_1 During this video I momentarily lost the ability to pronounce "involuntarily" - I hope it isn't too much of a distraction, nor the fighter jet that is so low over the woods. For anyone struggling with this passion, the saints I recommend you read about are St Mary of Egypt, St Moses the Ethiopian and St John the Long-Suffering.

But isn't to think that way to distance yourself from yourself? You can only be a prisoner in your body if your body does not belong to you, and we know (or should know) that far from soul/mind and body being different, separate entities (like Descartes assumed and set down as a legacy at the beginning of "modernism") that we are our bodies. That is why death, the separation of soul from body (even for believer in Christ) is an [objective] evil, and why at the Judgement we receive again our own bodies glorified, spiritual bodies with which to praise God forever or to curse God forever in our separation from Him if we are rejected. So, love your body as yourself. Even if it is broken. Even if you suffer in this body of flesh, it is your body. If you feel alienated from your body, please seek out counseling and spiritual direction. But before all this. Please know you are loved. And I will pray for you. And that of course is why sexual sin is so much worse for us, because it is a direct attack on the body, and through the body, the soul. This body, this wonderful body that God gave us to worship Him with.

We are all Jesus Christ is the ultimate savior. Nothing we can do in this life is enough to pay for what he did for us, however we should strive to be the best we can be. that is where I believe Christianity and Islam differ. Through his grace we are saved and through him we may have life after this short, sinful life. If you can look at the evidence of Jesus being the son of God, with the bible and the witnesses of many different eyes who were willing to die for what they saw, it would be impossible to say anything Jesus said was untrue. the only way to live is to love and try to spread the good news of a God who loves us passionately. The way Christ lived was a perfect example of the perfect life, yet he was hated for giving a different answer to the questions the people had been waiting for . They tried to put the God of the universe into their box. Love brother

Lust has always been a particularly dangerous passion. It's call is sweet and promises many things you think you can have. It satiates you temporarily and only leaves you feeling worse about it after the matter. Worse still is that it turns you into the likes of an eternally hungry beast seeking only to devour something to tide over your next pitiful and empty meal. It is an ever consuming passion that will leave you with a perverted sense of love and in the end devours you whole. This has and never will be an easy thing to overcome and should be fled from immediately when it calls. I've had more than my share of it and it's a spiral of misery. Take heed of the words of Father Spyridon as everything he's said is the truth about Lust. Flee from it should the temptress that is Lust comes knocking at your door and speak to your priest about it. I can only hope and pray that those suffering from this passion find themselves freed from the bondage of it.

@@MrWookie21 Well as Father says in another video of his, very few are called to go out and directly battle heresy and people with wicked beliefs as it is enough of a struggle for us to keep ourselves free from wickedness. Now, of course, there are people who are called to that sort of ministry and we should be happy that we have such excellent examples of boldness of faith. However, the average man is not ready for that sort of life. But that does not mean you cannot affect those around you by your actions and living as a faithful Christian. Christianity is a religion that spreads by example. Strive for virtue through Christ, and your life and actions can serve as an example to those around you. You must also realize, however, there are some people who will choose to remain in the dark, as sad as that is. Even many of those who heard the teachings of Paul brushed him off and did not believe. All we can do is pray that God will work on the souls of those people and that they may truly receive Him.

The sad thing is how the younger generation, my generation, has been spiritually harmed (intentionally) through pornography at such young ages. At that age, especially in our secular world without help/warning from our elders, many of us were lured in, not realizing how dangerous it was for us. It then becomes an addiction that is difficult to uproot. So when you talk about the temptation turning inwards, that is how I see it. The devil enjoys taking advantage of the weak and unsuspecting youth.

Fasting is the ultimate weapon against lust. WE CANNOT BE FREE OF LUST WITHOUT FASTING. The second weapon is prostration at least 41 in the morning and night. Remembering the torments of hell is also excellent repellant from lust. Joseph's incident from the Old Testament is excellent good example on how to escape from temptation and traps. The dreadful consequences of lust is recorded in St. David and Samson's life, how it ruined their lives.

I am not Orthodox, so can you kindly explain why you mention the number 41 for the amount of prostrations? I don't understand the origin of that number. 40 is the number for completion. Catholics either stand, or kneel continuously during prayer at Holy Mass, but we also do prostration for eucharistic adoration. Not repeatedly, just maintaining the prostration for some time. Especially the monks - they will just prostrate and stay in that pose for 15 minutes, 1 hour, or more.

Advice for my brothers and sisters regarding to lust according to my experience. Run away when you are facing lust like Joseph did with the wife of his master. And do not rely on your strength because we are of a fallen nature and are weak willed, but ask Jesus to work through your weakness to overcome the passions. Only when you notice your pride and truly believe you cannot rely on your strength that God will act through you. And always say: nevertheless not according to my will, but according to your will o Lord.

@@MrWookie21 NKJV Gen 39:6 ''Now Joseph was handsome in form and appearance.'' He was an incredible man and a great servant to Potiphar (his master). Potiphar's wife was called Zuleikha. From Wikipedia: According to the Book of Genesis, she falsely accused Joseph of attempted rape after he rejected her sexual advances, resulting in his imprisonment. I do not believe it is cultural. Remember we are all of a fallen nature due to the original sin. Everyone is tempted and can fall. David the king himself sent his best friend to die in a war solely to claim his friend's wife as his. He later cried tears of remorse.

These are some thoughts I have and if you’d be willing, I’d like to hear your take on them. You seem like a fellow who’s more knowledgeable than I in this. The idea of not relying on my own strength and completely leaning on another is completely alien to me. Hell I only begrudgingly do it with my own family. In fact I find the concept of humanity being so weak almost offensive and almost dismissive. We are not perfect beings by any stretch of the imagination but through a combination of force of will and sheer numbers we’ve survived everything that has been thrown at us. Even if millions die in the process, we as a people still remain. I don’t see the point of continuing on if nothing is possible without being held up or even puppetted by another. No achievement is yours, no struggle was truly overcome, no danger was ever truly survived. You just got carried through life by another more mighty than you. What’s the purpose of that? Can you even say that you lived your own life? I guess in a grander sense I struggle with the idea that we were given the ability to choose, yet we’re dissuaded from ever making a choice beyond the choice that was already laid out before us. To me that seems unimaginably cruel. Imagine being a sentient puppet with it’s own motivations and goals, but all it can do is whatever it’s master commands of it. To me that’s hell, that’s just inconceivable. It’s bordering on cosmic horror. I genuinely hope that I’m just seeing this incorrectly, but I can’t help but see the parallels between some descriptions of god and the petty tyrants that have run across this world. It just rings alarm bells in my head as a man who’s suspicious of any kind of power whatsoever because I’ve been on the other end of that proverbial shotgun. I’ve been beneath the boots of tyrants and I never, ever want to be there again. I’d rather embrace oblivion than be there again.

@@My10thAccountNot the person you were asking but i feel as though i can weigh in on this for you. Believe me, being a Christian and leaning on God does not mean life is easy, or that day to day living will be simple and without its ups and downs. In fact, while we do lean on Christ and place our faith in Him that through it all we will be okay and find peace, there is much struggle and internal strife. He does not force our choices on us, and there has been very few choices in my life that i feel as though my relationship with God has pressured me into making, save for things that are very clearly outlined in the Bible as being wrong. Depending on others, and using their strength to brace and support ourselves is far from weakness. As someone who also has struggled with feeling as though i should be able to handle everything on my own without help from anyone, we need it. As humans we are social creatures, it’s hard wired into us, and introverted as i am, im not sure id be here were it not for the people who support me and the love and grace of God. a verse that i feel may be applicable to this is a verse many people take out of context but it is Philippians 4:13. “I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.” it means that through everything, we will be able to persevere, through the Lord, no matter the circumstance or situation. i hope this was useful to you, and not just ramblings. i pray that God would guide you to Him, and give you a desire to be near to Him and learn and read His word. Be blessed

Your explanations of the roots of our sins are so deep and so true. I've always felt that lust is a sin, but I never understood why. It's so easy to think of lust as just a harmless feeling, as long as we don't act on it with rape, sexual harassment or infidelity to our spouse. You've helped me to understand why indulging in the feeling itself is a sin, a sin which separates us from God. Thank you father.

The priest I interviewed talked about how porn is the iconography of the devil. Amen, Father. Thank you for your works of wisdom.

this video saved me from watching it like literally now. Father God, please continue to watch over me and allow me to walk closer and closer to you and to escape the desires of lust. Amen

Very powerful, Father. As a man who struggles with a pornography addiction, the analogy with the family members really affected me. It made me realise not only was I giving in to evil, I was showing no love to others, because if I did love them as if they were my sister, I would not lust over them. God bless you.

It's a real joy watching Father Spyridon's videos. And also beautiful to see Orthodoxy blossoming in Uk even with small steps. Praying for the day we'll be again one flock of sheep under one shepherd.
