👑☦️🇨🇾 Metropolitan Neophytos of Morphou on why God will allow for a massive Third World War to take place: 🚀☢️ “When the first Israeli strikes on Iran's nuclear program, took place on Friday morning (June 13th, 2025) I sat in my prayer chair & said: My Christ, what You have been telling us all these years, has begun to happen. We knew they would come. Now we are watching them unfold. My Christ, how do You want me to pray? Christ Himself had revealed to the saints we've met that this War must take place. This is because the people of today have been proven unworthy of peace. We want peace in order to enjoy our passions. In other words, a perverted peace, a corrupted peace. ⚡️A peace where our primary concern is for holidays, wealth & having fun. But not for the peace of the heart. It's an outward peace that provides for indulging our passions & malice on all levels: social, personal, political & professional. That's not the kind of peace God wants. This is why, from time to time, He allows earthquakes in some places, volcanic eruptions elsewhere, floods out of nowhere, fires, poverty, economic defaults, wars & other such catastrophic events. God wants to wake us up from the lethargy of this corrupt peace we desire” ☦️🙏🏻🕊️

Today we commemorate St. John of the Ladder. I made the mistake of reading his book while an inquirer to the Orthodox faith, pure spiritual meat that I was no where near equipped to handle. St. John Climacus thought himself unworthy to compose a guide to the monastic life. However, in obedience to his abbot, St. John (4th Sunday of Great Lent) did so, drawing inspiration from the story of Jacob's ladder in the Old Testament (Gen. 28:12). St. John called his work The Ladder, for the book is “a fixed ladder leading from earthly things to the Holy of Holies." The thirty steps of spiritual perfection correspond to the Lord's age at the beginning of His ministry. In the book, the fourth step of the ladder is obedience— a word so many people misunderstand. It is not “giving up one's will and losing one's freedom. Christian obedience … is the proper exercise of our freedom, freely offered to God and to our neighbor. As St. John Climacus teaches us, this type of obedience - true obedience- is an act of love.”
