We are fascinated by enlightened Europe... Yes, it was there that the pagan abominations, which were banished from the world, were first restored; from there they have already crossed over and are crossing over to us. Having inhaled this hellish intoxication, we spin like madmen, forgetting ourselves...
If we come to our senses, God will have mercy on us, but if we don't, the Lord will send teachers to bring us to our senses and set us on the path of correction, or He will punish us. These are not empty words. Know, Orthodox, that God cannot be mocked.
The Lord has punished us with the West, and will continue to punish us, but we don't understand... We're stuck in Western mud up to our ears, and all is well. We have eyes, but we don't see; we have ears, but we don't hear; and we don't understand with our hearts.
Lord, have mercy on us all! Send us Thy light and Thy truth.St. Theophane the Recluse
