Makes me even cherish my spiritual father and Fr Basil even more.

Dear one... He seems to be in need of comfort. I tend to not see why "normal Christians" wouldn't have the same intensity of this "You have to die" feeling. We don't need to save ourselves, the Kingdom of Heaven is already here. "For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ" - 2 Corinthians 1:5.

Coming from an ex-catholic, this is heartbreaking. This man is clearly unbelievablely lonely, and he is suffering. it's not something we should be glorifying. I wish this man all the best, and I really hope he finds some peace, but unfortunately I don't think he's going to find it within the Catholic church.

“He who has the Holy Spirit in him, to however slight a degree, sorrows Day and Night for all mankind" - St. Silouan the Athonite Its very common in the orthodox church among spiritual persons that they weep deeply & regularly out of love for others or out of repentance (doing that in private, not publicly). But at the same time they feel deep peace and there is even a deep joy, which most people out of the orthodox church can't understand that you can live simultaneously with such two modes of feelings.almost daily. (btw he is an orthodox priest and not an roman catholic one).

@mathijsdijkstra1233 He is not a Roman Catholic priest, fella. This man is an ORTHODOX Christian priest. Orthodox. Orthodox. I do not mean to be harsh, but the fact that you didn’t even know that is…well, it’s just further proof that so many Protestants have absolutely no idea what they are talking about. With all due respect, this isn’t good. At all.

Only one Gospel: The Gospel of Reconciliation. Jesus Christ came into THEIR kingdom to reconcile fallen angels unto Himself. We are the fallen angels (ELOHIM) kept in DNA chains of darkness. If you do not confess being a fallen angel in Lucifer's kingdom, then you are an unbeliever. Unbeliever = those that claim to be made in the image of ELOHIM(gods). REPENT FALLEN ANGELS.
