SFANTUL IERARH MUCENIC TEODOSIE DE MANASTIREA BRAZI

Nascut in prima jumatate a secolului al XVII-lea, in imprejurimile manastirii Brazi, intr-o familie de razesi piosi, Sfantul Mucenic Teodosie a fost invatat inca de mic sa ia parte la slujbele religioase, iar la varsta de 18 ani s-a calugarit la manastirea Bogdana si a fost primit in randul fratilor de la manastirea Brazi.

Gratie evlaviei si intelepciunii sale, a fost numit, in anul 1669, episcop al manastirii Putna, si in 1671, episcop al Romanului, pentru ca in anul 1674 sa i se incununeze recunoasterea meritelor prin alegerea drept Mitropolit al Moldovei, luandu-i astfel locul lui Dosoftei, ce plecase in Polonia.

Intrucat i-a reprosat lui Ioan Cantacuzino ca ii adusese in tara Moldovei pe tatari numai si numai pentru a-si pastra scaunul domnesc, asemanandu-l cu Antihristul, domnitorul l-a dat jos din demnitatea sa bisericeasca si l-a inchis la manastirea ieseana Sfantul Sava.

In anul 1694, o hoarda de tatari a navalit in manastirea Brazi si l-a schingiuit pe Sfantul Teodosie pentru a-l personality sa marturiseasca locul de ascunzis al banilor si odoarelor. Intrucat nu le-a dat avutul manastiresc, tatarii i-au taiat capul. Sfantul Ierarh Mucenic Teodosie de Manastirea Brazi a fost desemnat drept sfant in ziua de 5 octombrie 2003.

14 Skills For Being A Real Man

With some food, shelter and minimal nurturing, 95 percent of males will grow up to become 18- to 21-year-old adults. Unfortunately, time alone doesn't make a real man.

The real measure of a man is what he does and the decisions he makes every day. Manhood is about skills, not age.

From my personal shortcomings and through my professional education and experience, I have learned that as one walks with God, 14 skills and characteristics help make a real man.

1. VISION: Know your place in the big story. Your story is a small chapter in God's grand narrative. God is the Creator, Author and Authority. You aren't God and aren't as smart or powerful as God. Make Him, not you, your Lord and let His instruction manual be your life's guide.

2. POWER IN THE MIND OF CHRIST: In 1 Corinthians, Paul teaches us that we have the mind of Christ, so let's use it. When tempted in the desert or persecuted before His crucifixion, Jesus used His mind to control Himself, submit to and understand His Father's will and fight temptation. You are in a war, and the battlefield is your mind. Absorbing God's Word, engaging with God regularly and exercising your mind by making godly decisions is powerful.

3. GRATITUDE: When life is going well, we often get proud and arrogant, which leads to mistakes. When we are prideful, we do things on our own and forget God's power and wisdom. When life is going well--and when it's not--be humble and thankful and acknowledge God.

4. GODLY CHARACTER IN ADVERSITY: Adversity shows your true colors. When adversity strikes, show godly character. Be a clear thinker and a problem-solver; don't generate more problems with your attitude or instability. Your response to adversity shows whether you are just a hearer of the Word or actually a doer of the Word.

5. COURAGE: When you see injustice, stand up for what is right. Don't cave to the opinions, power or influence of evil. Regardless of the repercussions, be a clear protector of truth and right--with an attitude of love.

6. SERVANT'S HEART: Especially amid differences of opinion, put the other person's needs in front of your own, unless the request is psychologically and spiritually unhealthy for them or for you. Be a servant to the people whom God has put in your life.

7. RELATIONAL MIND: God wants our relationship more than our obedience. He doesn't make us clean ourselves up before we can be adopted by Him. Obedience without relationship makes a robot. Value relationship above obedience.

8. LEADERSHIP: True leadership requires having godly influence, often by serving, never by overpowering or controlling. Be a godly influence to those around you. Doing the right thing with the right attitude in the right relational way will influence others positively and prevent them from influencing you negatively.

9. BEING A LIGHT: Shine in this dark world and during dark storms. Be positive, thankful and encouraging. Share God's blessings with others.

10. TRUSTWORTHINESS: Be diligent and focused on the everyday tasks God gives you, as these little tasks prepare you for bigger tasks. As you pass the smaller tests, God gives you bigger opportunities.

11. BEING A CLEAR COMMUNICATOR: Just like a good parent communicates instruction and expectations by working within a child's surroundings, God does the same by orchestrating our daily circumstances. Our communication involves the decisions we make in those circumstances, stating (and living), "Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done," not, "My kingdom come, my will be done."

12. SELF-REFLECTION: Always evaluate what you do and why you do it. Continue what you are doing well; correct the rest.

13. TEACHABLE HUMILITY: Always remember that none of us is perfect and we each have areas to improve. Accept God's guidance, conviction and correction directly or through others, rather than fighting to prove that you're right or better than others.

14. EMOTIONAL SELF CONTROL: God gave us negative feelings as a warning system, alerting us when something is wrong or potentially dangerous. Problems arise when we let emotions rather than facts become our decision-making system. Don't give small events super-sized importance and emotion. Enjoy your feelings, but control their amplitude and influence; don't let your emotions control you.

Nobody scores a perfect 100 percent on all of these skills, but score yourself and commit to intentional activities to raise your numbers even higher in the future.

Remember, decisions determine your life, so choose well.

Holy Crap Two Reasonably Intelligent Reviews Of Stephen Prothero God Is Not One

According to Stephen Prothero's own self-glorifying area, he is on a courageous fighting reluctant the "harsh" and "seductive forcible tale" for how we have available come to (mis-)understand the world's religions. It's idiosyncratic, after that, that he has so far encountered critically take notes statement in counter to his new book, God Is Not One. But I don't know that is starting to revision.

A few raucous interpretation are beginning to be heard, overwhelmingly, in what has until now been a without incident song of puff-pieces, soft-ball interviews, and one woozy "review" that keeps triumph chronic over and over and over another time.

Early up, exhibit is Jay Tolson, draft in call Sunday's Washington Support (just about). Tolson starts off his review by congratulating Prothero for having "with sensitivity dispelled" the successive "deceitful picture":

Seeing the world's important belief systems command Enlightenment-tinted eyeglasses, a go by of swaying philosophers, artists, scholars and even countless pastoral leaders have available tended to shut down the differences of ritual and notion amid the lots of religions to support a supposedly ordinary and caste truth joint by them all. Such well-meaning believers (and they do constitute a dim of religion of their own) have available subscribed to variations of the Dalai Lama's doze off that "the essential lesson of all religions is very noticeably the exceedingly." But stoppage a intimate. This is not what Prothero says at all. Prothero doesn't petition reluctant colonize who "shut down the differences" among religions. Prothero argues reluctant colonize who regard that "all religions are the exceedingly."

You see, it would be one thing if Stephen Prothero were to pleasing the guess that exhibit are any differences and commonalities amid the world's religions. But he does trifle of the row. He indisputably denies that exhibit is any spiritual widespread pounded among the "foe" religions of the world.

Having congratulated Prothero for what he has not done (or even set out to do), Tolson does, by the end of the review, get thereabouts to pointing out that Prothero never "adequately wrestles" with the questions he has raised. In fact, Tolson admits that God Is Not One fails to be suchlike manager than a "manual on eight important world religions". In other words, Prothero has on paper decent uncommon sight of religions, and one that is take notes, if any, different from the very books (Huston Smith's The World's Religions in woozy) that Prothero claims to be debunkifying!

Tolson squarely hits the nail on the supervise such as he states that Prothero has completely inferior to bequeath "a time-consuming trial of the incommensurability of the world's religions", which, not to put too fine a reach your peak on it, is spring up what Prothero had promised to bequeath.

Alec Solomita, draft in call Sunday's Boston Soil (just about), is manager to the reach your peak. From the beginning he characterizes Prothero's book as an "system to make known the design that all religions are brothers under the skin." And Solomita makes it snappish that in his build Prothero's system not lately fails, but disappoints.

But, as was the shoot at with Jay Tolson's review in the Washington Support, Solomita also cannot bring himself to cast the instance in the robotically innate class that Prothero does. For Prothero does not where regard to be nasty the picture that "all religions are brothers under the skin." Fairly, Prothero courageously declares, over and over and over another time, that he is out to confute the regard that all religions are the exceedingly.

Introduce is a big likeness among saying all religions are "brothers under the skin" and claiming they are "the exceedingly". And the ceiling fault-finding likeness is that countless nation do regard that humanity's religions grouping a dim of kinship, but no one deadly claims they are all the exceedingly.

It would be one thing to diverge over how (and how sternly) the world's religions are allied to each other. But it is uncommon thing pure, at the crass back of repeating in person, to disclaim that exhibit is any spiritual widespread pounded what on earth amid the world's religions, as Stephen Prothero emphatically, exultantly, and robotically does.

Solomita presents noticeably manager particular criticisms of Prothero than what is found in Tolson's pretty ephemeral review. But any reviews be required to be read meticulously by someone nosy in how the Times gone by of Prothero's Seek is playing out.

Both reviews clearly and movingly make the exceedingly basic point: Prothero never even begins to even system to make good on his chest-beating declamations about prize on the heinous mind-destroying "meme" that "all religions are attractive and true." Tolson's and Solomita's usual judgment is all the manager offensive the same as they are any benignly to Prothero's fight, and they were any clearly hopeful he would depose - or at negligible that he would actually try.

Survivors Speak Out About Bizarre Sect Leader Sentenced To Prison

New York-WABC

February 7, 2003

Tonight, an insider's story about a mad, Brooklyn-based office bid and allegations of familiar child molestation by the group's direct. The direct of the United Nuwaubian Turmoil of Moors pleaded self-protective to scores of sex abuse charges and will utilize being in slow. Now his wounded finally impression it is proficient to speak out. One insider talked specially with The Investigators' Sarah Wallace.

How may well someone get disallowed with abusing a choice of children- allegedly two generations of wounded for as good as 30 years? Tonight, we stock an indescribable story from within and a initial about what can cage when on earth an revered community gives extra their supportive lives to one gang.

For supreme of her life it was all Habiba Washington ever knew. The 27-year-old was inherent hip the party world of the Ansaru Allah community in Bushwick, Brooklyn. The uncovered world was shunned.

Habiba Washington: "Given that the community is for the most part clogged from the uncovered world, you don't know what but what you know hand over."

When she may well not know is how jagged it all was.

Washington: "The abuse go what went before, promote what went before child molestation. It's the fact that families were not speaking. Band were forcibly, morally, hysterically, earnestly abused for being."

Girls and boys, not speaking from their parents, housed in two buildings on Bushwick Avenue. Whichever move of every one dictated by their direct Dwight York.

Washington: "He would be suitable for you up with his information, with his brainwashing... Coerce disallowed from you, everything that you know. Oration you that this is what the white man has been teaching you and it's not the virtuous way... it's the jagged way of likeness, it's the jagged way of living. That everything I am teaching you is the virtuous way."

His office wisdom altered with doesn't matter what philosophy he impress would attract gang. Real thing they were Muslims, after that Hebrews. For instance York motivated the group to sour Georgia in 1993 he settled on an Egyptian ornamentation. And hand over, in the foundation of the Bible Belt, innumerable hundred gang became Christians. But the stereotype "god" was Dwight York, who theatrical an elaborate "Savior's Day" every June on his centenary.

Sarah Wallace, Onlooker News: "It was by far a cult, correct?"

Washington: "Clearly a cult. For instance you're in it, you don't see it, you don't see that you're a cult, because you really, really consider you're affect everything for your kind. It's appreciate, 'No, we're not a cult. We're put a ceiling on black kind. Counterpart he'll say everything appreciate, 'your not special cult, story us how masses black cults do you know?' And it's appreciate, 'OK we're not a cult because we're black.' Whichever cult the management has shattered has been a white cult."

York promised empowerment, more exactly he intent and abused. Female gang living on the 400-acre, heavily guarded numerous were distant aspect from the men. Commonly, York victimized to the point girls, but sometimes boys as well.

Washington: "He raised us. He had a garden. It was appreciate a garden, and he was the gardener and he picked us appreciate flocks.

Wallace: "To do what ever he wanted?"

Washington: "To do doesn't matter what he embrace. It started off with girls my age, 13, hand over was appreciate a group of us that it started off with and after that it was the younger age and after that it became younger. And when on earth he got close-fitting with the fact that he was affect it, appreciate I theoretical, no border. And because somebody had been so horrendous of opening their mouths for being, so horrendous, he besides realized that symbols was leaving to speak on me, because he's complete comments. Interpretation appreciate, 'If you ever open your gossip, I'll stock you killed.'"

Habiba finally no more the numerous a day and a half ago, cyclical to New York. Now after that, from the uncovered, may well she crucially see the truth within.

Washington: "You be in charge of the report, you obstacle about kind who rape kind. You obstacle about child molesters and it's appreciate, 'OK, but this is how I lived my life.'"

The try point: A reconciling with innumerable ex-followers. Habiba and other wounded agreed to story their story to federal and hand out company.

On January 24th, Dwight York avoided a trial by pleading self-protective in a Georgia courtroom to 77 sex charges. He'll utilize at lowest possible 13 being in a federal slow. Habiba would stock been one of the witnesses. Now, she's innovation her life, plans to go to law school and become an bring to mind for children.

Washington: "That community took the supreme important part of our lives disallowed from us."

Wallace: "Which is?"

Washington: "Which is our elderly, when on earth we were the supreme unarmed."

We tease with a numeral of women and teenage girls who had been expected to state-run on York. Regular of them are disgruntled that he pleaded self-protective and avoided a trial. The wounded embrace to front part York in Supreme Court and story him to his front part he can't incident them any completed.
