Athonite Elders About the Coronavirus
About 15 years ago the Athonite elder Dionisiy predicted before his death that after his death there would be a worldwide epidemic.  A lot of people would suffer and only those who would take communion would be safe.
There can be 4 levels of understanding what is happening in the world at these days:
1. Spiritual
2. Political
3. Economic
4. Physiological

1. On the first spiritual level we understand that God has allowed this virus to appear because of debauchery and perversions. And for those who are not directly connected to it, because of tacit consent. These people are targeted (key) audience of the virus.
On this level of understanding we are to correct ourselves: fast (abstinence), repentance, prayer with the strong belief that God will always be mercy to the contrite soul. It is a spiritual way and there is no fear on this level.

2. The second level of understanding, political, is lower. On this level we understand that this epidemic is provoked by the globalists who want to decrease the number of people. Suddenly all the people got trapped. It is a political fear.

3. The economic level of understanding is even lower: there will be no cash, hunger and electronic slavery are waiting for us (electronic bank concentration camp). It is an economic fear.

4. The fourth level, physiological, is the lowest: the virus is mortal and we have to survive at any cost. On this level physiological fear kills people and weakens the immune system without any virus.
To understand the situation right we have to go up from physiological to spiritual level. The virus is not an information fake, it really exists. It is a mistake to underestimate this dangerous virus or treat the present situation unseriously. But we must be sure in God’s truth not to allow false fear: “Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom.” (Luke 12:32) We also shouldn’t have economic fear, as God takes care of field flowers and feeds birds.  “Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.” (Luke 12:7) As for political fear, we shouldn’t underestimate the situation or treat it unseriously. It really exists but we know that everything is in God’s hand. “Alleluia! Praise the Lord! To our God belongs the glorious power to save, because His judgments are honest and fair. That filthy prostitute ruined the Earth with shameful deeds. But God has judged her and made her pay the price for murdering his servants.” (Revelation 19:1)

On the spiritual level we do not have fear but we are attentive and caucious. Our healthy reaction to any mention about coronavirus should be Lord’s prayer:  «Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on me.» We must sincerely ask God for forgiveness for our unlucky life and wasted time. The time of tests has came but I still do not have true belief, get often confused and live in fear. Attention and carefulness is that if you are an elderly person it is better not to go out but if it is necessary to go out do it with sign of the cross and prayer, relying on God we go and do what we need, remembering that fear is a an energy from the demonic world. Only fear of God is pure.

“Alleluia! Praise the Lord! To our God belongs the glorious power to save, because His judgments are honest and fair. That filthy prostitute ruined the Earth with shameful deeds. But God has judged her and made her pay the price for murdering his servants.” (Revelation 19:1)
«После сего я услышал на Небе громкий голос как бы многочисленного народа, который говорил: аллилуия! спасение, и слава, и честь, и сила Господу нашему! Ибо истинны и праведны суды Его: потому что Он осудил ту великую любодейцу (блудницу), которая растлила землю любодейством своим, и взыскал кровь рабов Своих от руки её.» (Откровение 19:1)
