He ordered the governor to sprinkle blood for sacrifices offered to pagan gods to be sprinkled on...
— This prophecy is now circulating widely in Greek and undoubtedly has been told to many. This was told to me by a spiritual son of the elder a day before the elder’s Funeral Service and Burial. (The spiritual son said that the elder told him this in 2008) Thus, I heard it about 3 months before the difficulties he speaks of began and the coronavirus “crisis” exploded. He...
If you are in Fr. Demetrios Carellas’ email group, you will have noticed a four-part presentation of interviews by Fr. Ioannis Drongitis from October 3rd to October 7th. These reveal, to the English-speaking world, this priest who was not known before but we now hear boldly and “as one having authority” (cf. Matthew 7:29) confessing the truth of the spiritual matters on which many...

I would like to speak to you about three signs: one from a hundred years ago, one from ninety years ago, and one from today. These signs are not signs of prophecy – but they are signs of the times. Evil signs.

Introduction
Thesis One: “There are no spiritual problems, you can and should be
vaccinated”.
Thesis Two: “There is no evidence of the presence of elements of aborted
infants in the vaccine”.
Thesis Three: “Creating vaccines in a medium of cells originating from
abortion has been approved by the Church".
Thesis Four: “If abortions were performed for the direct purpose of producing
medicines, then this would be a grave crime, a sin. But it has nothing to do with
the present case.”
Thesis Five: It is downright blasphemous, for it equates the consequences
of killing a baby as a result of an abortion with the Sacrifice of Christ".
Thesis Six: “Let us take advantage of the consequences of the murdered baby’s
death”.
Orthodox Ethos is a collective effort of nearly a dozen Orthodox Christians, ordained and lay. Our purpose is to present and support the Orthodox truth, way and life, which is Christ Himself.
