I am thankful that my Protestant parents gave me Gabrielle as a middle name so that I could have this wonderful saint may be my patron at my conversion to orthodoxy.
this means "glory to God" in many slavic languages. russian, ukrainian, serbian, croatian, and many others i'm sure. all of the slavic languages are related. "Slava Bogu" goes back to old slavonic and, for all i know, may even go all the way back to proto-slavic
I was athiest and agnostic too as a young man and eventually realized Jesus has been protecting me my entire life and the Holy Spirit guiding me. The cutting edge of physics IE quantum mechanics is far beyond our understanding. Lean not on your own understanding but trust in the Lord. I'm still a sinner but the blood of Christ makes me whole. I hate this world and its corruption. I hate how it has corrupted me and how I have allowed it to do so. The light of Christ is the only Way for me. I hope these videos plant a seed for you to take the faith more seriously. amen
I'm Catholic, but it's hard to immagine, how this man could be not a saint. My church theology don't says that Orthodox Church member can't be, so I'll choose to belive he is.
Brother, Christ has only established one Church. It can only be one out of the Orthodox and Catholic churches, not both. St. Gabriel is calling you home, to Orthodoxy.
This video is such a beautiful artistry of the portrayal of saint Gabriel, a loving soul who grew up shy in the countryside turns out to be a loyal servant of Christ and healed many souls, become famous in the orthodox world. Although a bit complex in the beginning of the political turmoil, the visual did not fail to impress us with tender emotions and loving memories
It is a Georgian sacred hymn to the Mother of God called "You are the Vineyard" (Shen Khar Venakhi). It was composed by a Georgian king who became a monk.
Sfinte Cuvioase Gavril al Georgiei cel nebun pentru Hristos roagă - te bunului Dumnezeu pentru noi păcătoșii și cea ( cel) dintâi eu! Amin! Să avem parte de rugăciunile sale.Cu ale sale rugăciuni, Doamne Iisuse Hristoase Fiul lui Dumnezeu, miluiește-ne pe noi și ne mântuiește! Amin! Mama Gavril care ai trăit pe pământ ca un înger printre oameni, mijlocește din ceruri pentru noi, trimite binecuvântarea ta asupra noastră! Amin!🙏🙏🙏
People were not afraid of him. There are lots of films about him. People who really knew him speak about him. You should first see these pictures and then talk about him. If you do not know his story learn about it. Which legends are you talking about? The witnesses about his feat on first of May are quite accurate. If you do not know these details then you can learn them from people who know them. But they are no legends.
Hey Jak. Just found the channel from the most recent Disrupt video. Tbh I didn't watch it and I imagine it's been a huge stress on you. I've enjoyed watching your work every now and again over on Deo Creative. I just wanna say that I was always a fan of what you put together. I had a feeling since that C.S. Lewis video that you were a good guy. You may have made mistakes but I'm not really interested in focusing that. Hope you keep making these great videos. Keep at it, bro.
This is saint Gabriel who burned the portrait of Lenin during the Soviet union,He was beaten by crowd for being Christian,He's skull was fractured over 17 of his bones we're broken,He was in a coma for a month,BUT HE LIVED BECAUSE OF GOD✝️☦️☦️☦️
Is this a Catholic saint or a Russian Orthodoxy saint? I know in Catholicism you have to have 2 miracles attributed to you. Or if you are a martyr for Christ, as he could be considered, do you surpass this requirement? I did not think protestants believed in Sainthood, and (ironically) consider it idol worship. (I remember my Lutheran grandmother yelling, "We do not pray to Saint ANYBODY under this roof!" at my aunt, after she had lost her keys and prayed to St. Anthony...)
@@Corfaisus Do you not ask your Christian friend or pastor to pray for you? The believers who lived and struggled in His name before us pray for us, for they are still alive in Christ. From Hebrews 12:1-2: "Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, 2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."
@@Wacholderwald If I ask anyone to pray for me, they pray to God, not to some "saint". In the same verses you quoted, it plainly says "fixing our eyes on Jesus". Catholicism is apostasy because it puts man in the place of God.
@@Corfaisus If I ask a saint to pray for me they pray to God for me just as any fellow believer prays to God for me, because they are not dead; They are alive in Christ. Saint Gabriel is a saint of the Orthodox Church, he is not Roman Catholic. The term "Orthodox" means "right worship". The term "catholic" only means the "universal" church. These men and women who are honored as saints were the greatest examples of faith and humility, who put Christ first in their lives, to the point of suffering persecution, torture, and death. They truly exemplified Saint Paul's words in Galatians 2:20: "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." They are role models, as are the Apostles who wrote the Gospels and Epistles, who are the first Saints in the Church founded by Jesus Christ.
literally nothing mate.. i find it hilarious how the same people say Putin is trying to restore the soviet union and at the same time Philosopher Aleksandr Dugin is Putin's brain not realizing Dugin is extremely anti soviet which makes Putin anti soviet
No no no guys this is just tiny portion of his life! Read his life, his prophecies! He said that we are in last days, and the reason he is proclaimed saint is not because he burnet Lenin’s portrait, after death his blood didn’t coagulate, idk if I am saying it right. He was born in Georgia country that suffered for Christ for all its existence, thousands of Georgian martyrs. During his life all the churches were closed and clergy on its minimum or at least 90% were closed. One day he passed by church and saw man on cross, he didn’t know what or who it was, he saw older mans and ask who this person was on this cross, older man fearing about prosecution, told him that the best way to know who that person was, is to find Bible. Finding bible in that time was like finding Tiger in Tbilisi. Some people speculate that the person who gave(/sold) him bible with dirty robes which looked like bagger was some kind of saint. Later when in that days he started to diligently educate himself studying bible, he was 14-16 back then, then he ran from house because his mother was too consersed about her child, and demanded from himself to stop his bible teachings, he ran from house and he was going from one monastery to another, unfortunately, monasteries could keep him because of his age, then in couple month mother found him begging to come back home and she would never ask for such a thing, his life was going harsh, he was roaming from one garbage places to another, finding there thousands of orthodox icons. He was picking them up and taking them to his home. This is just 2-4 years of his life…
You're a coward and will never have as much bravery as him u should be ashamed of urself they broke all the bones in his body but he still remained christian
demons are very real, and psychedelics are a sure fire route to accessing them and their fallen realm.. stay away from the occult even if you insist on denying the obvious reality that we are created beings, jak
Straight up horrible, strange video format. It's like you didn't think the story was good enough, so you had to spice it up with weirdo video edits. Good grief.
Sure god thinks this is cool and all, but one must conduct themselves as a good person on this Earth. Lots of people out there trying to technicality their way into good favor with heaven with superficial fluff. Take measure of the totality of your mind.
A human grows over time. Old actions have different impact, understanding, and meaning... when looked upon them with new eyes. Don't be a cringy atheist
@@michaela.754 i dont see that as an atheist comment, maybe yours is an example of works however well intentioned must ultimately come from a place of selflessness unto the glory of God
