2009.02.12. who listen to God on earth, those are God’s sons, and those who do not listen to Him on earth, those are men’s sons and have the devil as their father, whom they serve, and there is no one to open their mind to understand and distinguish God’s work from satan’s work, for they have no teacher with mercy over them, and we are coming towards them to shepherd them and to tell them that the kingdom of the heavens is not of this world, but it is from the heaven from God for those who are His faithful ones and saints. Oh, we are speaking to you, faithful people, and the son of God’s word. Oh, set down to great watch, for you have to lift up a holy and strong prayer for all the sons of men so that the Lord may turn them to repentance to the forgiveness of their sins and to their illumination with the light from above, the light of the resurrection from the death of their sins, for sin is death upon man. Oh, strive, son, strive to a lively prayer, for you have to overcome with the Lord and with His saints satan’s deceitful work, which works mysteriously to draw the people after him, for behold, he and his servants work hard to seal the people with his seal, but the Lord has always spoken over this nation to wake up and watch for the Lord’s coming and for the coming of antichrist, and then for this nation to remain with the Lord and to listen to His voice of Shepherd. Amen. (See the selection topic: „The antichrist and the apocalyptic beast”, r.n.) We, the three bishops celebrated today within a synod of saints, leave a threefold bless- ing upon you, people with a new name of New Jerusalem on earth among people. We leave upon you the seal of the living God, and we put a mark upon you in a mysterious way in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit the Comforter, for we are chosen by the Lord to bless and to watch over His work of today and over its servants and over its faithful people. Be the sons of the holy and strong prayer, as by prayer with grace upon it you will be overcom- ers with the Lamb of the Father, the Lord Jesus Christ. Ask for the destruction of the work of satan’s hidden things and ask from the Lord protection over His faithful people from every- where and teach the people to mark themselves with the sign of the holy cross by the three fingers kept closely together within the name of the Father, of the Son and of the Holy Spirit the Comforter, and let them put this sign over their little houses and over all their things and works likewise, and let their works be the works of the Lord. Amen. The more the satanic spirit burns his spices to enchant those on earth to him, the more the Lord’s people is to burn their candles with oil, with a written note in them within the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, to God’s greatness for victory, and let the Lord’s church strengthen themselves and cry out to God for the Lamb’s victory and the victory of those who are redeemed by Him. Amen. Let the people stay having been sanctified with fasting and prayer before the Lord, and blessed is the one who is sanctified by this word, by which the Lord, Jesus Christ has shepherded on the earth. Amen. (See the selection topic: „About the graven image and the sign of the cross”, r.n.) 3
