PHILOKALIA MINISTRIES

On the End of Every Illusion and the Beginning of Worship “Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God, the Almighty; he was, he is and he is to come.” ⸻ John is not given comfort. He is not given explanations. He is not handed a system of thought or a theology to manage the chaos of the world. A door opens. And what he sees does not console the mind. It shatters it. A throne. Everything in this vision moves around that throne. Lightning. Thunder. Fire. Creatures that do not rest. Elder
