“I want to live” — the body cries out.
“I want to die” — the soul cries out.
This is the simple logic of existence: the desire for sin and the desire for God.
Two armies clash within you — a bloodless, yet ruthless fight.
There is nothing poetic about it, romantic exaltations. You will lose or you will win — a draw is not possible.
This is the only war that people prefer to lose; they prefer the world’s garbage — lusts, desires and perversions. A pure soul does not interest them.
The life of Judas and betrayal is the hallmark of this world.
Evil hates the followers of Christ the Lord, but a handful of them remains.
Most live in the illusion of war — but has long ago lost.
“We want a King!” — they sing, paying homage to human idols. They reject the truth, they love pretty words,
but indeed not flowery speeches but simple words.
Not declarations and oaths but prayer in silence.
“In the name of God this crusade!” – they shout and they forget about the persecuted brothers.
Where is the truth? — they ask like Pilate.
Although it was so close — he did not see.
Although he knew that it was innocent blood — he condemned.
What are you doing, foolish man?
The veil has long since fallen — there will be no mercy. Innocent blood demands justice.
