«...Иисус Наставник, помилуй нас!»

14. And what about this terrible obscenity and rude criminal expressions that the sick say?

This is a purely demonic action through the sick, they often suffer from it unbearably, fall into melancholy and despondency, thinking that it is their thinness that gives the demons a reason to spew such things. It happens that even children say such obscenities that it is difficult to believe in it.

Here is a similar case from the book of Bishop Theodore. Basil:

"Once I was invited to give communion to a dying girl. When I arrived, the sick girl, a teenage girl of 12 or 13 years old, was apparently already in a state of last agony. Cadaveric shadows lay on his face, a faint squawk was heard in his throat, known among the people as "bells", as it is in the dying in the last minutes. But something extraordinary happened in her with him: terrible swear words escaped from her half-open lips every now and then. She scolded her mother, who was in the room, scolded her with the foulest, soldierly, street abuse. It was a terrible picture.

A girl, almost a child, is on the verge of death — and this disgusting abuse... The voice sounded sharp, like the knocking on a wooden board, the words flew out with short pauses, but methodically, with a kind of evil persistence. And at the same time, it was clear from her eyes that the poor girl hardly understood what was happening to her... It was as if someone was pulling a spring from inside and the words jumped out automatically...

It turned out to be impossible to give communion to the patient: she no longer had swallowing reflexes.

I only had to sprinkle it with holy water and read the incantatory prayers of St. Basil the Great and the funeral prayer. Little by little, it began to subside." [St. Basil of Kineshma, Discourse on Ev. of Mr., pp. 153-154.]

Such or similar cases are usually cited as examples of possession, but this is a very strong degree – the demon killed the child, by God's permission, and the illness is often more imperceptible and unrecognizable.

15. Such anger often captures you, I don't know what to do?

One must try to stop it at the very beginning, otherwise it spreads and engulfs the whole person, bringing innumerable disasters. Read the writings of the Holy Fathers and ascetics of piety about this. Cultivate hatred for this sin in yourself. St. St. Tikhon of Zadonsk says: "A vile and ridiculous sin is malice. Other sins are either a kind of gain or sweetness to the sinner. A thief steals in order to satisfy the soul, a fornicator commits fornication in order to please the flesh; An evil one is angry without all this. He sins and suffers, iniquity and is tormented, he avenges and suffers vengeance. Thus, to the wicked his very malice is a punishment and a scourge. If it were possible to look into the heart of an evil person, then nothing else would appear there but hellish torment. That is why it happens that evil people darken and dry up: malice, like poison, eats up their flesh." [Arch. Ioann Maslov, Symphony based on the works of St. Tikhon of Zadonsk, Zagorsk, 1981, vol. 1-5, p. 804]

16. After all, many do not believe in the existence of demons?!

Yes. At the end of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth century, much was written to prove this. Archpriest Gregory Dyachenko, M.V. Ladyzhensky and others wrote books that give many, many examples confirming their existence, unfortunately not always Orthodox, and sometimes dubious. Therefore, it is better to refer in your evidence on this question to Hegumen Mark, Ignatius (Brianchaninov) in particular. He owns the statement:

"Those who reject the existence of fallen spirits necessarily reject Christianity at the same time... If there are no fallen spirits, then the incarnation of God has neither cause nor purpose." /Ascetic Experiments, vol. 3./

17. You don't talk to us much. I would like to hear more of what you need. Why?
