Priests rejoice over skull

Some Orthodox priests exhumed Abbot Irodion, and rejoiced when they cut his skull off the corpse.

Lainici monastery is located in south western Romania. When Abbot Irodion died, he was buried somewhere inside this Romanian Orthodox monastery.

The search for his whereabouts went on for many decades. Finally he was discovered on 10 April 2009. His relics had the usual brown-orange colour of the holy bodies and spread the typical incense.

The local tradition of the monks states that Abbot Irodion used to celebrate daily the Holy Liturgy and the Eucharist and had the spiritual gift of the foreseeing, reading the thoughts of the people he met.

Also he made exorcisms and prophesized the future. He also foreknew his end, telling also that the hermitage will be abandoned after some years.

My comment:

This abbot was not permitted to R.I.P.  Some fellow priests looted his grave, and exhumed the corpse. Next, they cut off his skull, and lifted their “relic” towards the sky in triumph. His bones were collected, and are now kept for display in a golden box.

If this kind of grave looting is not spiritual perversion, than nothing is. Pure wickedness in the name of “Jesus”.  The Roman Orthodox worship of skull and bones, is an abomination to all true born again Christians. Jesus the Messiah told us that He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living.

 Matthew 23:27
‘Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of the bones of the dead and everything unclean.

I hope and pray that ordinary men will not follow the example of these demonized priests. But rather repent from their sins and leave all kinds of false Christianity behind.

May Jesus the Messiah have mercy on all deceived souls. Amen.
