“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”

“I don’t deserve to be saved”

The Almost False podcast is a channel run by a young chap named Gabriel, who has made it his mission to bring the stories and witness testimonies to the world. He does a fantastic job of it, too, as he simply lets his guests speak, and respectfully listens to them –...
The Pope is wrong

The Pope is wrong

The multilingual master of historical and textual analysis, Metatron, saw fit to tackle Il Papa’s recent remarks about how all religions lead to God, in a detailed video in which he translated “the Pope’s” comments precisely and word-for-word from the original...

Mess with the horns, get the Bulls of Bashan

I have been watching a lot of testimonial videos of late, concerning the spiritual realm, and the ways in which daemons try to influence – and in many cases, take over – our lives. For some reason, TEH YOOTOOBZ decided to recommend a video from a channel called...
The man who would be king

The man who would be king

Taking part in the Stations of the Cross is always a moving and powerful experience. I first attended one 6 years ago, before I bent the knee, when I was still living in the US. At that time, I was going through a severe personal crisis, and derived a lot of comfort...

Not my will, but thy will be done

We are mere hours away from the anniversary of the death of Our Lord upon the Cross. There are three truly sacred days for us as Christians – Christmas, Good Friday, and Easter Sunday. The first celebrates the birth of our Saviour, the second mourns His death,...
“For we saw His star when it rose”

“For we saw His star when it rose”

It is Christmas Eve – or, as my Russian Orthodox brethren would call today, “yet another Sunday, what’s the big deal, comrade?”. Seeing as this is the case, I think it is worth setting the scene for the day of joy and celebration that follows...
The hours of darkness

The hours of darkness

45 Now from the sixth hour[f] there was darkness over all the land[g] until the ninth hour.[h] 46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” that is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” 47 And some of the...
Mouthing off about the early Gospels

Mouthing off about the early Gospels

Jacob Dreizin is what you might call a “Marmite blogger” – either you like him, or you do not. He does not exactly endear himself to his detractors, because he has more than a few Gamma strains with respect to his constant chest-thumping about how he...
Well done, good and faithful servant

Well done, good and faithful servant

First off, happy Ash Wednesday to one and all. This marks the start of the season of Lent, culminating in the single most important part of the year for us as Christians. When I lived in the States, I distinctly recall priests from various Catholic and Protestant...
