In the name of father and son and the holy spirit
00:00:03
[applause]
00:00:05
on the Day of Remembrance of All Saints, you and I
00:00:08
remember not only those whom we know
00:00:11
because they are recorded in our church
00:00:14
calendars in the calendar,
00:00:17
but also many others, most of
00:00:21
whom we do not know and who are
00:00:24
officially not glorified by the church
00:00:26
because it is really impossible
00:00:29
to know everyone, not everyone was bright such
00:00:33
personalities who were noticeable from everywhere,
00:00:36
as if towering at the height of the church,
00:00:39
as if on a mountain, and apparently everywhere there were
00:00:43
a lot of modest believers
00:00:46
who pleased the Lord in their lives with their
00:00:49
love for their neighbors with their mercy with
00:00:53
their good deeds, with their prayers and with
00:00:56
their fasting and with their struggle with their sins,
00:00:59
they could have been the simplest people,
00:01:02
they could have been ordinary farmers, they
00:01:07
were merchants, they were wars, of which
00:01:12
there were a lot. Because when an
00:01:15
Orthodox Christian warrior dies defending
00:01:19
his Fatherland,
00:01:21
he receives forgiveness of all sins
00:01:23
because they give their lives for their neighbors,
00:01:27
as the Lord said, there is no greater love than all that
00:01:30
If someone lays down his life for
00:01:33
his neighbors and here they are dying And there have been
00:01:37
millions of them over these centuries, they are now
00:01:41
among the saints and
00:01:45
of course we don’t know their names very often How do you
00:01:48
remember, people who were sinful sinners and
00:01:53
murderers, robbers, debauchees
00:01:55
became at some point deeply
00:01:58
religious people, they came to know Christ,
00:02:01
they completely changed their lives and
00:02:04
sometimes achieved great holiness, even working
00:02:07
miracles, although there were many And those
00:02:10
who did not perform miracles, but completely
00:02:12
changed their lives, corrected themselves and
00:02:15
became sinners Well, in fact, let
00:02:21
’s remember the holy people. At least even the
00:02:23
Old Testament quarrel, after all, this was the
00:02:28
most terrible king, he was feared throughout the entire
00:02:30
Universe, a
00:02:32
powerful mind, an analyst, a
00:02:35
commander, a builder, a
00:02:39
manager, of which there were few at that time,
00:02:43
built cities, planted gardens,
00:02:46
irrigated deserts with canals, and this man
00:02:50
who destroyed many others
00:02:53
who forced them to worship an idol
00:02:56
Golden believed in his own statues
00:03:00
in the true God and, moreover, became a
00:03:04
preacher; we will remember another
00:03:08
person in our time, Joseph
00:03:11
Vissarionovich, who at one time
00:03:14
actually renounced God and destroyed
00:03:17
many clergy,
00:03:20
ordered the bombing of many churches and
00:03:23
monasteries and even appointed a second
00:03:26
five-year plan which the people called
00:03:27
godless precisely in order not
00:03:31
only to strengthen the industry, but also so
00:03:35
that the name of God would be forgotten throughout the
00:03:38
Russian Earth, the Second
00:03:41
Godless Five-Year Plan ended with the war, and
00:03:45
during the war such powerful changes occurred to him. There
00:03:48
were such apparitions of
00:03:51
saints,
00:03:53
which many who knew him wrote about.
00:03:56
for example, let me remind you of a phthisiatrician, a
00:04:01
secret nun about which no one knew.
00:04:04
Of course, because she was tonsured in the
00:04:06
early 20s,
00:04:08
Mother Sergius Klimenko, she worked in the
00:04:13
Kremlin hospital, and her
00:04:14
memoirs talk about how the Great appeared to him
00:04:18
before he was about to leave
00:04:21
Moscow Prince of Moscow Daniel and
00:04:25
ordered him to stay. It was such a
00:04:27
vivid impression that he could not remain
00:04:30
silent and share with his doctor
00:04:33
that it was extremely rare, he shared with few people there
00:04:35
were other phenomena and there
00:04:37
was a letter from Metropolitan Elijah of
00:04:40
Gorlevan in which the Mother of God
00:04:43
showed him what he needed to do in order to
00:04:45
save the country and he did everything that
00:04:49
was ordered by the Mother of God, and at the
00:04:52
end of his life he repented, there is
00:04:55
information that he also took communion at the end of his
00:04:58
life at his nearest dacha in Kuntsevo,
00:05:02
it seems in his sins. Who knows,
00:05:05
maybe he and Nebuchadnezzar, both of these kings
00:05:09
because he was really an
00:05:10
emperor because he had such power
00:05:14
that few other emperors had, he
00:05:18
also repented and they both may be
00:05:21
met by us in the kingdom of heaven if
00:05:24
we get there. But not everyone becomes
00:05:27
such holy people. Although holiness
00:05:30
can be of different levels, not everyone, of course,
00:05:33
will be like Kronstadt, who
00:05:35
healed
00:05:37
tens or hundreds but thousands of
00:05:40
people who lived not only in our
00:05:43
country, but even far abroad,
00:05:46
he healed not only Orthodox Christians
00:05:49
but also Catholics and Protestants and
00:05:52
Muslims and Jews, everyone who turned
00:05:55
to him for help Not all such places are
00:05:59
certainly in Russia. Despite the fact that
00:06:03
he predicted a future terrible
00:06:05
revolution and said that you
00:06:09
would walk knee-deep in blood, nevertheless, a
00:06:12
huge number of Russian people
00:06:16
And all over the world Even those who believed
00:06:18
in the existence of God lived completely pagan
00:06:21
life and sinned and went to church
00:06:25
at the same time and at the same time we see
00:06:28
that not everyone was saved by the Lord God in ancient times.
00:06:31
Let's remember Sodom and Gomor. After all,
00:06:35
if in this city there were 10
00:06:38
righteous people, that is, those who would live
00:06:41
according to the truth of God, they would try not sin
00:06:44
If they sinned, they repented of their
00:06:47
sins,
00:06:48
if God had found these 10, then both of these
00:06:52
large cities with the suburbs,
00:06:54
half a million, could have stayed alive,
00:06:58
and that’s why in Russia we have such a saying that a
00:07:01
village or a city or a
00:07:05
village of the unrighteous does not stand,
00:07:07
but the point is that for the sake of righteous people
00:07:10
the Lord saves the lives of other
00:07:12
wrong people,
00:07:14
then 10 people were enough
00:07:16
to save half a million, therefore
00:07:19
when they say that the world still stands Only
00:07:23
thanks to the prayers of righteous people, this is
00:07:26
absolutely correct;
00:07:28
at Sodom, the Lord showed that for the sake of the
00:07:31
righteous He saves not only these
00:07:35
cities but the whole world the world lives on the prayers of
00:07:38
righteous people, saints But not everyone is
00:07:40
righteous; many people
00:07:43
consciously renounce God; they can
00:07:47
do this. Yes, of course they can. Why and
00:07:51
because God gave us free will and
00:07:55
freedom of choice,
00:07:56
why didn’t he immediately create us to be kind,
00:08:00
good and not sinning? Yes, because
00:08:03
these are robots and only when a
00:08:05
person has Freedom and
00:08:07
God-like Freedom because God is
00:08:09
free in all his actions and when
00:08:12
he chooses good with free will,
00:08:16
what God called good, love for one’s
00:08:20
neighbor Mercy mutual assistance humility
00:08:22
meekness patience
00:08:27
these are the Qualities that both Christ
00:08:30
and he commanded us all to do the
00:08:33
same. Here is a person who chooses this
00:08:37
path, the path of Christ God, he chooses
00:08:40
voluntarily.
00:08:42
But he may not choose, he may choose,
00:08:44
on the contrary, the path of sin, to
00:08:47
satisfy all his sinful
00:08:49
inclinations always at the expense of someone.
00:08:53
Because sin is always produced at the
00:08:56
expense of someone. and against someone
00:09:00
Sin in itself does not exist, for example, a knife
00:09:03
cannot be sinful because it was used to
00:09:05
kill someone, stabbed someone, because it
00:09:07
can cut off a piece of bread and feed
00:09:11
the hungry,
00:09:13
but the will of a person
00:09:14
who is inclined to sin to do evil against
00:09:18
another person Here it is
00:09:21
therefore, nothing in this world is sinful
00:09:24
except the will of a person if he
00:09:27
voluntarily gives it to the enemy. Today we
00:09:31
heard in the gospel that whoever
00:09:34
leaves the father of the mother of the children’s
00:09:38
sister of the brother for the sake of me and the Gospel
00:09:43
will find both the fathers and mothers of the brothers
00:09:46
and what is needed here in in this world and in the
00:09:50
future kingdom of heaven,
00:09:53
this does not mean at all, as some people
00:09:55
think, that everyone should abandon their
00:09:57
parents, their brothers and sisters, not
00:10:01
love any of them because they
00:10:04
incorrectly interpret the words of the Lord, who
00:10:06
loves the father, the mother of his brother, his sister,
00:10:10
his children are no more worthy of me than me,
00:10:13
this is not it means that God contradicts
00:10:17
himself because his main commandments are
00:10:20
to love your neighbor, who is closer than your
00:10:22
parents, who is closer to your wife, husband, children, there are no
00:10:27
contradictions, the point is not to not
00:10:31
love them, but the point is that when love is
00:10:33
abnormal, when it is of animal
00:10:36
origin, when it is higher than love for
00:10:42
truth and to God, when for the sake of his children
00:10:46
or loved ones a person does
00:10:49
things that are contrary to God, then
00:10:53
he must choose either a son or a daughter or a
00:10:58
wife or a father who is required of him by
00:11:01
sin or, after all, the commandment of God if
00:11:03
he loves him in this sense and
00:11:06
it is said that we must love God
00:11:09
more than the children of our husbands, wives and
00:11:15
parents, but as we know, there are very
00:11:18
few people who are truly
00:11:21
capable of following Christ and actually
00:11:25
leaving all their loved ones for the sake of God.
00:11:28
This is some kind of special calling. There have
00:11:32
always been few of them, but they are There were those who
00:11:35
loved God so much that they
00:11:37
actually left their family, but not
00:11:41
because it was difficult to support it or for
00:11:43
some other mercantile reasons,
00:11:45
namely out of love for God, if the family interfered with
00:11:49
this love, they left and became
00:11:52
monks,
00:11:54
became hermits, hermits
00:11:56
or lived in monasteries. This is a special
00:12:00
calling and it is not for everyone,
00:12:03
but only for those who truly
00:12:05
loved God with all their hearts, with all their souls, with
00:12:08
all their thoughts. But of course, all
00:12:11
parents want believing parents, they want
00:12:15
their children to be just like them.
00:12:19
Unfortunately, we see that often a believing
00:12:22
family, even the family of a believing priest and
00:12:27
his believing mothers, children are born And
00:12:30
despite the fact that they
00:12:32
go to church with their parents and sometimes
00:12:35
chat or sing on the map, then they
00:12:39
leave the faith and plunge into everything. As they
00:12:43
say, it’s difficult. Why does this happen?
00:12:46
After all, we parents want them to be
00:12:51
pious believers like us What if it doesn’t work out like this,
00:12:55
there are two reasons: firstly, we must
00:12:57
understand one simple thing: children are not
00:13:00
a cast, they are not a copy of a parent, the soul of
00:13:04
each person and parent and child
00:13:06
is created by the Lord God personally, which is
00:13:10
confirmed by the fifth ecumenical council of the
00:13:13
70 fathers and subsequent ones. So if God
00:13:18
created the soul of a father or mother He created the
00:13:22
soul and child of a son or daughter,
00:13:25
in fact they have one common father, these are
00:13:29
just brothers and sisters and each of them
00:13:32
has their own free will and each of
00:13:36
them can choose something completely different from what
00:13:39
the father or mother chose precisely because
00:13:42
they have free will and therefore it often
00:13:46
happens that children choose something completely different from
00:13:49
what their parents would like to see,
00:13:52
this is the first reason and the second reason,
00:13:54
of course, which largely depends on the parents.
00:13:57
This is incorrect upbringing,
00:14:00
some bring their children to church and
00:14:03
are touched by how they lovingly light
00:14:06
candles or vice versa they extinguish them on
00:14:09
the candlesticks When they are very small
00:14:11
they blow them out very touchingly they kiss
00:14:14
the icons
00:14:15
often they serve at the altar and then when
00:14:20
puberty sets in they leave the
00:14:23
church and no longer want to go with their
00:14:28
parents to the service you old people can
00:14:31
go on your own And I’ll go to the disco there it’s more
00:14:34
fun there friends
00:14:37
None of my peers None of my
00:14:40
classmates go to church that I am
00:14:42
worse than them And you parents go As you
00:14:46
please very often we hear Why, but his
00:14:50
parents simply took him to church,
00:14:53
took him to Sunday school where
00:14:56
they told fairy tales Because this is
00:14:59
how children perceive stories about
00:15:02
holidays about Saints Because they were not
00:15:06
given a worldview, they were not educated in a
00:15:10
worldview, that is, views on all the
00:15:13
processes of the world and the history and politics of the
00:15:17
economy of everything that happens in this world, did not
00:15:20
show them the cause-and-effect
00:15:23
relationship of how good deeds
00:15:26
are reflected in the future life and how
00:15:29
sinful actions are reflected in
00:15:32
examples they were not shown to many, they were not given an
00:15:35
understanding of the world from the point of view of truth,
00:15:39
that is, the point of view of the Revelation of God,
00:15:42
because only God is the truth, for he
00:15:46
knows everything, He created the world, and if from this
00:15:50
point of view, they were not given an understanding to their
00:15:53
child,
00:15:55
the meaning of everything that happens in the world, the
00:15:57
child he simply acted as his
00:16:00
parents wanted because he did not separate himself. But
00:16:03
when he felt like a separate,
00:16:06
independent Personality, this happens
00:16:09
at about the age of
00:16:12
12-14 and Dali years, he suddenly chooses something
00:16:16
completely different from what his parents would have wanted him to
00:16:18
choose.
00:16:20
Freedom of choice
00:16:22
is realized and here and as we see
00:16:26
during the revolution, there were cases when non
00:16:29
-believing children killed believing parents
00:16:32
or betrayed them when a brother kills a
00:16:35
brother because one served in the
00:16:38
Volunteer Army as we called the white
00:16:40
army and the other brother, his own half-blood,
00:16:44
served in the Red Army, many
00:16:48
officers, by the way, and The generals began to
00:16:52
serve the Red Army out of fear for their
00:16:55
conscience,
00:16:57
they were democrats, they
00:16:59
sincerely believed that this government was
00:17:03
Bolshevik. It was good and they
00:17:07
walked consciously if some people still think that
00:17:09
Trotsky created the Red Army, these are
00:17:12
illiterate people who don’t want to know anything, but
00:17:15
if they read the documents, then they will see that the
00:17:18
Red Army was created by the Tsarist Generals,
00:17:23
once Orthodox people who
00:17:25
betrayed their sovereign, who betrayed
00:17:28
their homeland, who violated the
00:17:32
oath that all the military took, as
00:17:36
a result they were all destroyed, you
00:17:38
know how they all ended very
00:17:41
pitifully because betrayal will sooner
00:17:44
or later
00:17:45
be extinguished by God
00:17:48
and They swore, as you know, on the cross and
00:17:51
on the Gospel, that is, they swore an oath before
00:17:54
God and only a few of these
00:17:58
generals did not agree to serve the Reds
00:18:01
and they were killed, so many of them were remembered
00:18:06
Generals Miller General
00:18:11
Wrangel Well, and the Khan of Nakhichevan,
00:18:15
who was a Muslim, such an
00:18:17
honest person that When he was
00:18:21
encouraged to serve in the Red Army, he
00:18:24
refused because the sovereign swore an oath to
00:18:27
the emperor and God and he did not
00:18:30
break the oath he swore on the Koran and
00:18:34
was shot. Although he could have saved his
00:18:37
life, he was offered to serve in the Red
00:18:39
Army,
00:18:40
things like this happened and children
00:18:43
confronted their parents about what and Christ
00:18:45
spoke and children will rise up against their parents and
00:18:48
kill them all this we saw all this was
00:18:53
in history
00:18:55
why the world still stands and only for one
00:18:58
reason that there are still people who sincerely
00:19:00
believe and pray to God for the whole world, for
00:19:03
their sake this world exists these are the
00:19:07
same people who in previous centuries
00:19:10
were called saints A saint is not
00:19:12
necessarily a miracle worker,
00:19:15
he is a person who lives according to the commandments
00:19:17
of God. Even if he sins in something,
00:19:21
although the main thing he tries is not to commit mortal sins,
00:19:26
but nevertheless there is no person who
00:19:29
will live and not sin, as we read in
00:19:32
prayer before confession there really is no such
00:19:34
person, but
00:19:37
they repent and these people who live
00:19:41
according to the truth of God and are called saints, and
00:19:44
in ancient times the Apostle called
00:19:47
all the baptized saints.
00:19:50
This was a feat, firstly. This was a challenge to the
00:19:53
entire pagan world, if they were Judas.
00:19:56
They challenged all this
00:20:00
Jewish elite who no
00:20:03
longer served God, these were confessors, many of them were
00:20:06
killed and they deliberately went to their death, which is why the
00:20:09
apostles call them saints
00:20:12
because they were not only martyrs,
00:20:16
confessors, they received the Holy Spirit
00:20:19
because the apostles ordained them and
00:20:22
then anointed them peace
00:20:25
clergy because the apostles
00:20:27
could not lay hands on everyone; there were
00:20:29
too many of them, but they received the
00:20:32
Holy Spirit through
00:20:33
anointing or apostolic ordination
00:20:37
and this spirit gave them the strength to resist
00:20:40
all the bones of the devil and man, and
00:20:45
today the world also lives on the prayers of the saints
00:20:49
and those who died in Church
00:20:53
of the Triumphant is what we call those people
00:20:57
who entered the monasteries where they are awaiting the
00:21:00
Last Judgment Where the righteous are, the
00:21:03
village of the righteous is not yet paradise in
00:21:07
its entirety, paradise will be after the
00:21:10
New Earth and a new heaven will take place
00:21:12
here Now they are in the spiritual world only the
00:21:15
souls of their bodies have long been in earth
00:21:19
and the other part of the righteous are those
00:21:23
who make up the militant church
00:21:27
here on Earth, those who are at war with
00:21:30
sin with sin in themselves, first of all,
00:21:33
from sin on the outside, they help people
00:21:36
free themselves from sins, lead them along the path
00:21:39
of Truth, this is the militant church and all of
00:21:44
them together make up one church and
00:21:47
we pray for them they pray for us We are
00:21:51
one church,
00:21:53
so we celebrate all of whom
00:21:57
today we cannot even name by name
00:21:59
because of course in Russia they knew few
00:22:04
French saints
00:22:06
and in France there were also saints of English
00:22:10
saints England remained as
00:22:12
Orthodox countries longer than all others
00:22:15
until 11th century to 1066 When the
00:22:21
significant battle of Hasens took place when
00:22:24
William of Normandy defeated with the
00:22:28
blessing of the Pope
00:22:30
defeated the army of the Orthodox King of
00:22:34
England
00:22:37
That's when this happened
00:22:40
England's conversion to Catholicism began
00:22:44
from that time then it fell into an
00:22:46
even greater heresy in the Anglicans so we call
00:22:50
it actually
00:22:52
a heresy which in Russia was called the
00:22:55
heresy of the Judaizers, practically little. How it
00:22:57
differs from Judaism, but nevertheless,
00:23:01
until the 11th century in England there were many Saints of
00:23:05
whom we do not know many. Now it is only
00:23:08
due to the fact that the Russian Church was
00:23:11
scattered all over the world after the revolution,
00:23:13
those of our hierarchies that ended up
00:23:17
abroad for example, John of Shanghai and
00:23:20
San Francisco, they found those ancient
00:23:24
saints of
00:23:25
European German English
00:23:28
French Portuguese who were
00:23:31
before the division of churches, they are really
00:23:33
saints, they have now discovered many names, but
00:23:37
even more we simply don’t know all
00:23:40
their loans and we don’t know their great and small ones,
00:23:44
we are celebrating today and I congratulate
00:23:48
you all on this holiday and their prayers May
00:23:52
the Lord have mercy on us all
