The apocalyptic fire
tests were needed in order to become a Christian , and that you must bear sufferance , slander and humiliation , for otherwise you will not be able to be a Christian , you will not be able to be like Christ , the One persecuted even before His birth , and the way for man to become a Christian has great work , for the more , the greater , and the more beautiful your love for the Lord on earth was , the greater share on My behalf you will have in heaven .
… The great hierarch Basil has on this day a celebration among the saints , the day of the year when he entered the heavenly dwellings of those who love with longing on earth for them , and he is greeting near Me those in the citadel of My word and he is coming now into My book .
⸻ The longing for You and for those in heaven , burned like fire in my heart , Lord , oh , and how much You long for the people who are consumed with longing for You , Good Savior !
I am only bringing my greeting now to the citadel of Your word and to those who watch over it for Your coming with the saints and I am saying : The Lord wanted and wants to throw fire on earth and more and more people to catch fire , sons from the Lord ’ s citadel with you . The longing is the fire , and without this fire the Lord is not warm in the man ’ s heart .
Oh , keep your fire , sons ! Give to each other from it to be fire , for without fire it is cold in a house , and the Lord is cold in man , in the house of his heart , and then among brothers .
There comes the feast of the Baptism and we all will be sitting with the Lord at the table of the feast . Oh , make fire , sons ! Make those who come to the feast take fire from fire , and let them understand what you are doing here for us and for them , for you are working hard to make them burn for the things from above , those who come at the Lord ’ s day with you , with the table of word in the feasts . Therefore , the Lord have set you now to prepare a great feast of Epiphany and to open the heavens above and the grace to flow , sons . Be full of longing , be full of courage , be full of word , full of signs and symbols , of shared joy , and be children for these accomplishments , because only the children are the lucky ones , for by obedience they are small and are destined for the heavenly things on earth , and then in heaven , oh , sons .
⸻ I rejoice with My saints at the feasts with you , but do not forget , oh , do not forget the longing , sons , do not forget the great longing in you for Us , and work with it and prepare and set the heavenly feasts here , whenever they arrive to be put on their table and with guests at the table , guests from above and from below , sons .

Oh , when I see such a lot of struggle for the enactment of the immorality on earth , I am overwhelmed with grief . The people without God in them try to bring , without knowing what they do by this action , fire and brimstone over the earth and over those who are far less sinful before God than those who work their immorality day and night face to face with the Lord , with the heavenly and angelic powers of the Lord ’ s glory , and by so doing pressing on ruination over people . However , I , the Lord , can I stand and do nothing to stop these people ? Can I let Myself overthrown from the throne of the heavenly glory and let them act up in the name of their people , over which they are incurring wrath and curse ? Oh , no , I cannot ! And the prophet Elijah is coming and doing his work full of zeal for God , to turn the hearts of the children to the fathers , and the holy fathers to their followers , as it is written about the coming
