Vox Populi, Vox Dei !

Elon And The Felon

Mark 15
⁶ Now, at that (Passover) feast, (the Roman governor of Judea) released unto (the Jews) one prisoner, whomsoever they desired. ⁷ And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.

⁹ Pilate answered them, saying: Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews ? ¹⁰ For he knew that the chief priests had delivered (Christ) for envy. ¹¹ But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them. ¹⁵ And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.

What Dreams May Come

( Click on the picture above, to view the video ).


In Dreams Begin Responsibilities

Sirach 34
¹ The hopes of a man void of understanding are vain and false: and dreams lift up fools.
² Whoso regards dreams is like him that catches at a shadow, and follows after the wind.
³ The vision of dreams is but a reflection: the likeness of a face beholding itself.

⁴ Of an unclean thing, what can be cleansed ?
 and from that which is false, what truth can come ?
⁵ Divinations, and soothsayings, and dreams are vain:
 and the heart fancies, as a woman's heart in travail.

⁶ If they be not sent from the most High in thy visitation, set not thy heart upon them.
⁷ For dreams have deceived many, and they that put their trust in them have failed.
⁸ The law shall be found perfect without lies: and wisdom is perfection to a faithful mouth.

Isaiah 13:13

Therefore I will shake the heavens, and
the earth shall move out of her place,
in the wrath of the Lord of hosts,
and in the day of his fierce anger.

The Czar Formerly Known As Prince

John 12:31

Now is the judgment of this world:
Now shall the prince of this world be cast out.


John 16

⁷ If I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you;
⁸ And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin,
 and of righteousness, and of judgment:

⁹ Of sin, because they believe not on me;
¹⁰ Of righteousness, because I go to my Father;
¹¹ Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

Orthodox Christianity: Mortally Wounding Its Opponents Since 363 AD

Saint Basil the Great, whose feast is celebrated on New Year's Day, once prayed before an icon of the Most Holy Theotokos, upon which Saint Mercurius was depicted as a soldier holding a spear.

He asked God not to permit the emperor Julian the Apostate to return from his war against the Persians and resume his oppression of Christians. The image of the holy Great Martyr Mercurius, depicted on the icon beside the image of the Most Holy Theotokos, became invisible. It reappeared later with a bloodied spear.

At this very moment Julian the Apostate, on his Persian campaign, was wounded by the spear of an unknown soldier, who immediately disappeared. The mortally wounded Julian, as he lay dying, cried out, “Thou hast conquered, O Galilean !”
