About what happened, we will learn from books or history lessons. But future events that arouse the constant interest of the public are covered with an invisible veil. Not everyone can break it. Only a few clairvoyants have the opportunity to peep the main trends of the future. One of the most perspicacious is considered to be Paisius Svyatogorets. His prophecies are popular, interpreted and retold by many. There are many incomprehensible and strange things in the words of the Elder. Although time puts everything in its place. The incredible prophecies of Paisius Svyatogorets about Russia have already come true to some extent. Therefore, there is reason to expect the further embodiment of that wonderful path that the Elder led this Great Power. Let's take a closer look at what Paisiy Svyatogorets was talking about, whose prophecies became so popular in connection with Turkey's aggressive step against the Russian military aircraft.
Who is Paisiy the Holy Mountaineer?
Prophecies of the Elder we will discuss in detail below. And first, a few words about him. You see, the Lord does not give knowledge about the future to everyone. This grace must be earned by righteousness and true faith. Paisios Svyatogorets, whose prophecies so excite the general public, has completely coped with this task. He was born back in 1924 in an ordinary Greek family. The father decided that his son should be a carpenter, which he was taught. However, the future Elder of Mount Athos acted in his own way. His soul yearned for the Lord from childhood. He wanted to enter a monastery. But family affairs put off the moment of fulfillment of the dream. Only in 1950 was he able to become a novice. Since then, he lived on Mount Athos, praying for people, trying to share wisdom and fiery faith with pilgrims and students. By the way, the prophecies of Paisius Svyatogorets became known from the lips of those people with whom he communicated. And many people came to the Elder for advice and guidance. He was very kind and fair. Paisius Svyatogorets, whose prophecies are filled with great love for the Motherland, was simple and courteous in communication. He is remembered with respect and awe by all those who had a chance to talk with the Elder. According to witnesses, he had a manner of conveying information in portions. That is, he did not say everything that he considered necessary. No, he gave the listener time to understand the meaning of what was said, then only continued his narration. Sometimes several hours passed between pieces of information, and sometimes days. The perspicacious Elder watched the effect produced to make sure that the meaning of his words reachedto the listener. Thanks to this peculiar manner, we all have the opportunity to get acquainted with his thoughts and prophecies. They are retold by those who perceived the information with their own ears and memorized it. The Elder died in 1974, and in 2015 he was canonized as a saint.
Prophecy of Paisius the Holy Mountaineer about the war
It should be noted that the Elder is revered in his homeland - in Greece, and in other countries. He is not particularly trusted in Turkey. And there are reasons for this. The Turks do not like the prophecies of Paisius Svyatogorets about the Third World War. The Elder used to say that the fighting would unfold in the Middle East. By the way, we see it on TV screens and computers. That's just the characters of this bloody battle are still not the same. According to the Elder, two hundred million Chinese must take part in the battles. They will come when the Euphrates becomes shallow. The saint pointed out to the listeners that everyone could see the signs of the impending Armageddon. He called for reflection. After all, such a powerful river as the Euphrates cannot dehydrate itself. The miracle of the Lord will not happen. All people will do it with their own hands. The fact that the final battle is close will be indicated by construction work in the upper reaches of the river. They will block it with a dam, the waters will fall off. Then the army will be able to overcome the obstacle without a bridge. The Chinese will reach Jerusalem and take it. And in the Turkish expanses, Russians and Europeans will converge in battle. Isn't it true that the provocation in which the pilots of the Russian Aerospace Forces died looks like the beginning of these tragic events, a kind of starting point before the start of a terrible war?
Prophecies of Paisius Svyatogorets about Russia
The Elder often told the pilgrims that on Mount Athos they pray for Russia, asking the Lord for the revival of the people of this country. People have gone through a lot of hardships. And they are connected not only with the loss of the material. The people are like the crew of a ship thrown ashore by the waves. People are panicking, having lost faith in God, they do not know where to expect help from, as Elder Paisios Svyatogorets saw. His prophecies about Russia are connected with the realization by believers living in the country of their divine destiny. They will remember what it means to be true Orthodox, kind to the world and furious with enemies. From this moment the objection of the Great Power will begin. And the whole world will rejoice, and the enemies will be horrified. But until that moment, Christians will have to go through a lot of terrible things. They will be persecuted in all lands. The Jews will seize power and begin to destroy Orthodoxy. Their goal will be to create a world in which there is no compassion and true faith, said the elder Paisios the Holy Mountaineer. Prophecies about Russia, he uttered infrequently. But he was sure that the Lord would not leave this people. He will always help him, wait until people turn to faith, understand that it is in it that their strength lies. And then Russia will stand up for its Orthodox brothers - the Greeks. At this moment, Turkey will go to war against the homeland of the Elder. Here comes the moment of the great battle. With all their might, the servants of the Antichrist will try to prevent the reunification of the Orthodox, their strengthening, but nothing will come of them. The Lord will help His beloved children to overcome the darkness.
About the collapse of the USSR
Pilgrims andthe guests were surprised by some of the statements of the Elder. So, a certain gentleman tried to find out what would happen to the USSR. And it happened during the Brezhnev era. The country was strong, confidently looked to the future. However, the Elder told this gentleman that the Union would soon disintegrate. To the surprised objection, he answered in the sense that you will see for yourself. And this gentleman, it should be noted, was at that time no longer a young man. And so it happened. The elder said that such a tragic event for the people is only a test before the great battle, in which the Russians (meaning people of all nationalities) must take part. But until they return to the Orthodox faith, they have no chance of winning.
About Constantinople
Now, as you know, this formerly Greek city is called Istanbul and is the capital of Turkey. The prophecies of Cosmas of Aetolia and Paisius the Athonite speak of him. Rather, the first expressed his thoughts about the return of the city under the Greek banner, and the second deciphered them. Cosmas of Aetolia said that times would come when there would be a big war. Then "the mountains will save many souls." The Elder deciphered these words with the following advice: when the ships enter the Mediterranean Sea, all women with children need to leave the city. This will mean the imminent bloodshed. And the military should indicate exactly where the city is located. The Greeks will not have time to take part in the battle. But they will enter Constantinople victorious. Such circumstances will arise in world politics that the Russians will not be able to keep the city for themselves, they will decide that it is better to transfer it to other hands. Here they will rememberabout the Greeks. And the glorious city will return again under native banners. Turkey is about to collapse. Unenviable, according to the Elder, is the fate of this people. A third of the Turks will become Orthodox, the rest will die or move to Mesopotamia. There will be no more such a state on the map. Such is the prophecy of Paisius the Holy Mountaineer. About the last times, he said that the signs would be clear, we would all see them. As the Mosque of Omar is destroyed, so should one prepare for great battles. It stands on the site where Solomon's temple once stood. The Jewish people dream of reviving it, for only it is the real House of the Lord for them. And for this it is necessary to wipe the mosque off the face of the earth. This is what the adherents of the Antichrist will do. The destruction of the Mosque of Omar is a sign of the end times.
About spiritual and material
Many of the prophecies of St. Paisius the Holy Mountaineer concerned the lives of ordinary people. He said that you need to believe in the Lord holy, in spite of any trials. And the Elder saw many more of them ahead of the Orthodox. In difficult times, when the Antichrist will almost prevail over the world, only faith will save people. Demons will not be able to overcome this last outpost of light in souls. To a modern person, these words may seem strange, and the power of faith - insignificantly, however, he will be mistaken. When you read the prophecy of Paisius the Holy Mountaineer about the end times, remember that no one will escape the answer. Everyone will have to choose which side to fight on. Those who support the forces of darkness will bow before the Golden Calf and fall. The light in the souls of these people will fade, and the flames of Hell will consume them. BUTbelievers will not be affected. They are under the protection of the Lord, and are his warriors. Every person will have to choose. Neutrality, as they say now, will not work. The final battle will be a confrontation between the flames of souls standing on opposite sides of good and evil. The prophecies of Paisius the Holy Mountaineer about the Antichrist indicate that it will be difficult for people to resist his will. With cunning, he will win hearts. Only real, fiery trust in Jesus Christ, following His commandments, will save us from the power of the Antichrist.
Rebirth Through Trials
People at all times strive for a quiet, prosperous life. There is no sin in this. But the fate of mankind is such that only those who do not betray the Lord can enter the Kingdom of God. And everyone will have their own "front". In the souls of the war is already going on. The Antichrist is trying to win people over to his side. If you think about it, you will see it for yourself. We are constantly indoctrinated with other people's goals, unnatural desires and dreams. Is it possible for a person to resist the “golden calf”, when everyone around considers the possession of we alth to be true happiness? This is how the Antichrist works. He needs to eradicate from the souls of human thoughts about Orthodoxy and God. Then he will become the owner of our world. But the earth will already be different, cruel and bloodthirsty. But don’t we now see in ISIS (an organization banned in the Russian Federation) signs of a diabolical ideology? Blood flows like a river, people die without trial or investigation. Do those who are the creation of the Lord dream of such a world? But the battle is already on. It is, we repeat, in the souls of people. Which side will you take?
Is we alth worth the loss of a soul?
Today people are looking for the prophecies of Paisius the Holy Mountaineer about money. Do they think that the Elder predicted exchange rates? Of course not. He looked deeper into the essence of the world, believed in humanity. He tried to bring light and kindness to people. It is these qualities that are the basis of a new, reborn world. It will not worship money. Yes, and they themselves will lose the importance that they have today. When the Antichrist is defeated, we will begin to think, dream and act differently. There will be no people left on earth for whom gold will be a value. In fact, is it the meaning of our existence? They say in his quantity. But this is just a joke. People need to understand that they come into this world to create, to help the Lord improve the planet. And for this you need to look into the soul, to see the abilities there. This is how the Elder saw our common future.
About the Russian Tsar
Interestingly, many prophets associated the revival of Russia with the anointed of God. And Elder Paisius said that the king would return. He described his vision of a ship washed ashore. It was Russia. In the hold and on the decks of the frigate, the people are panicking, in the eyes of fear and lack of hope. And then, as the Elder said, people saw that a rider was rushing towards them right along the waves. This is the Orthodox Tsar, determined by the Lord for the people. And under his leadership, the ship returns to the surface of the sea, safely getting on the right course. This is how Paisius Svyatogorets described the revival of Russia. His prophecies, by the way, echo the thoughts of other clairvoyants. Whether they come true, we (or our descendants) will see. After all, by all indications, the end of time is near. And you shouldn't be afraid of it. You need to follow the advice of the Elder, trust the Lord and he will protect.
Conclusion
You know, people are often addicted to all kinds of prophecies and predictions. Some criticize them, others firmly believe. Whether the events described by the Elder will come true, apparently, depends on those people who live on earth. Is not it? And not the last battle you need to wait after reading the comments. The elder said all this with one goal - to warn people about the intrigues of the Antichrist. Everyone needs not to buy weapons or dig a bomb shelter, but to build the Temple of the Lord in the soul. Paisius Svyatogorets did not tire of warning that believers and only they would be saved! This is the main point of his prophecies. Whether Constantinople will fall, whether the Chinese will cross the Euphrates, will be decided by those who stand next to the Lord against the army of Antichrist. Isn't it?
