Secularized Christians Will Not Be Protected From Antichrist (The Temple as a Symbol of the Church)

Video Description

Excerpted from Lesson 6 presented on March 23, 2023: The Revelation of Jesus Christ to the Apostle & Evangelist John the Theologian, Series 3, by Fr. Peter Heers "The inner area of the Church will not be trod upon; it will be protected from the attacks of the Antichrist. The outer area of the Church will be trod upon. The inner area of the Church is made up of the faithful, of those who always remain faithful, regardless of the decomposing world around them. They encircle the altar and prove to be the true worshipers of God. The outer area of the Church is made up of all those so-called Christians who wish to be called Christians. They are the Christians of heresy, the lukewarm Christians, the Christians who compromised with the world, the secularized Christians. Such Christians and their secularized churches will not be able to obtain the protection of God, as they will be trod upon by the nations. Christ will not protect such worldly Christianity, such a secularized Church, symbolized here by the outer yard.” -Elder Athanasios Mitilinaios https://youtube.com/live/CgTrcpTJDfw --- Join over 1,400 other serious Orthodox Christians, Catechumens, and inquirers into Orthodoxy (1,050 on Patreon, 350 on orthodoxethos.com).
