Constantine Zalalas Q&A 05.31.2024☦️ Christ is risen!

0:00 hurtful because we may have some family members that have pulled that direction uh we need to be compassionate we need to be you know very loving speak the truth but we cannot compromise we need to be apologists listen I understand what you're going through I feel you know for your struggles but I cannot agree with you because my God doesn't agree with it but I will love you regardless if you ever want to talk I'm here for you leave it at that if you want to curse you out well so be it and yes you'll lose relationship sometimes people will stop talking to me it's a very difficult

0:50 topic yes what do you do if a priest gives you like not very wise advice like yeah if if a priest believes in a homosexual agenda or he feels that they're born that way or says it's okay tox to get married oh okay I would ask do you have a daughter father I would say do you have a daughter you know tell your daughter to go out and just enjoy herself well I mean I'm sorry but you know

1:36 um we live in times of apostasy and obviously a priest like that would have been defr 50 years ago defra you know if you were if two three Witnesses would have him say that he would be finished but nowadays we are we are being infiltrated by and and that's do not be scandalized don't let anything surprise you it's all written in the Scriptures it happened in the Church of Corinth remember when these incestuous young men he was having relations with with his stepmother and everybody was he what you go you know no

2:21 problem they were rejoicing and St Paul he wrote him that letter them out of the water and he says I would deliver that young man to Satan to destroy his body so his spirit will be saved so he allowed demonic energy to make to sicken his body and to paralyze him and that brought him to repentance and they both repented and then so there's nothing new Under the Sun why don't we have a priest like that well we respect him we say father I'm sorry but I disagree with you you know

3:07 I'm not going to you know I I just don't agree with that because the scriptures doesn't agree with you St Paul says your my body is the Temple of the Holy Spirit and if I destroy my body by those sins God will destroy me so who do I listen to you or God with much respect and you will do this privately privately not we don't confront because then it becomes you know becomes it just splits the church so and yes we do have some theologians now they well they're some some

3:52 theologians he some University in New York you know they're trying to synchronize the church and then trying to you know to become very loving and we have uh Bishops and archbishops who say that uh you know love is love and we cannot discriminate against someone about the about whom they love we cannot discriminate about some about who someone loves well St Paul did did he not did he not discriminate against those who loved homosexuals and told them if you don't repent you're not going into the kingdom of God and then St John and divine in Revelation the end

4:39 of says the Cowardly the homosexuals the perverts you know the drunkards the liar they will they will enter the lake of Sul Lake of sulfur we live in difficult times and people at least you are here because the Holy Spirit has awakened you let's push forward and state apologies for the truth but again with discretion with discretion with meekness not in Anger if we get angry

5:25 let's not have a dialogue write a letter or something but you want to get angry against the priest and you're not ready to speak to him write him a note yeah hello I'm John Michael um I I've been thinking for quite some time now about this question or topic but there's many prophecies um regarding Christ's

6:12 resurrection and God is all knowing in his nature um but sometimes when I think about it with my limited capacity I almost get the impression sometimes that Judas didn't really have uh the capacity for free will it almost appears that if everything was foretold and Christ told his disciples that I will be betrayed and he knew this it almost seems like Judas had to play the role that he did for the events to go the way they did so I always have a hard time understanding that Judas had his own free will because he was created in the image of God like everyone else but

6:58 it almost feels like um he had to do what he did and that Christ knew that that was going to happen or at least the father knew that that is how it's going to happen so I just have a hard time understanding this yeah I think it's the U predestination still kind of uh you know you're not very clear about that and um you you are confusing for knowledge with God's will you there are two different things God for knows but he doesn't predestin he for

7:47 knows something but Judas when he was elected as a disciple at that time he had the same potential was the other Apostles to say that uh that Christ chose Judas so he could betray him that would be using Judas so he wouldn't be Judas fault there so with that mindset Judas should be in Paradise because he did a good thing according to some Protestants he betrayed Jesus he died on the cross and God helped us to be

8:38 saved the prophecy has nothing to do with God's will the prophecy simply for tells what that person will do in their own free will he saw it he could have stopped it but he did it could have stopped Peter from betraying him but he didn't in the same way Peter betrayed him three times he could have stopped David from killing his top General but he did God for knows all these

9:25 things but he gives us he respect without free will we don't have the image of God inside of us free will in a person Free Will is a prerequisite of the God for us to be in the in the image of God we cannot be in the the image of God without Free Will animals don't have free will that's why they're animals they cannot be Sanctified I mean they have life they are you know they have Instinct they have a certain amount of of brain and they do things but they do not have free

10:11 will and God never violates someone's free will he told them he told Peter before the rooster crows three times you'll be traying did he pet do it because he told him no because he saw the weakness in Peter he saw it he foresaw it it was his for knowledge but that didn't cause Peter to go betray him he says no Lord I will never do that I'll die for you okay the same thing with Judas he gave

10:57 him every opportunity Judas did Miracles just like the other Apostles he held back he held nothing back from him he even gave him the treasury box to give him an opportunity to say wow they trust me I have to really prove them you know I I have to do the right thing look how much they trust me and instead purifying himself against greed he slowly took one coin the first day you nobody will know a week later another

11:42 coin and then two coins and then five coins and then he developed that addiction it was his Free Will nobody told him to steal there were other things at Play all the apostles wanted a messiah to liberate Israel they really never really understood the purpose of the Messiah they wanted a kingdom of this age of this world and that's what Judas camped on he said this is it you know we're going to be the cabinet of the king of the Messiah and when he's during pal Sunday when he saw that Jesus just walked away from all that and Judas became

12:31 despondent just says you know what I wasted three years of my life and not desperation the devil got involved and did him in so no we don't accept that he had all the potential he had all the all the help that the other the other Apostles did and Thomas and again doubted him they all had their weaknesses but they were treated with the Same Love Yes were you say that the times that we are leaving now are worse than the time was there before are we are similar well we're not being fed to the Lions

13:18 yet so the first Antichrist was Nero you know burned he burned Rome down and he Blended on a c Christians and then they use the Christians you know to to feed lions and also tie them on PES and uh get solar power out of them they got light out of them during the nights yeah so I think we live in um in more deceptive times and I think technology has a lot to do with it there's a lot of information I think our times are more tricky they're more receptive and uh we think we have freedom but we don't and it's much

14:05 easier to be enslaved today s uh life was much simpler back then back there yes J J um I wanted to ask you said that uh if the person gets angry it means the person has a pride and I wanted to ask if we get angry is it better to keep it to our ourselves or should we show that um we are unsatisfied with something because sometimes it's hard to balance between being Too Faced and not to take peace from other people to be angry against another human being first of all when you're angry you'll say the wrong things the

14:52 decisions will made the things that we say at the time never end up well so it's best to learn to control our anger the first way the first step of fighting our anger is by keeping it inside you're fuming but you don't let it out this is how this is the first step and then go and pray later and you know confess to God that I got angry I got weak you know however anger is an energy of the Soul a legitimate energy of the Soul if somebody at work is enticing you to break the law of God or to sin there you get

15:38 angry you will show your teeth and say no I don't want you know I don't want to hear it enough is enough I will never speak to you again if you continue to speak like this then you'll get angry there so anger is necessary when we fight sin but now against our children our husband our wife our fellow parishioner but we should never show another emotions for example if I get angry but I don't want to make anybody upset I will try to show that everything is well and smile like is it being too fa no no no no you will you will wait a few hours until you come down and then you will go

16:24 have a conversation with that person up to your house have cup of tea after you've relaxed after you know the U adrenaline has come down then you have a conversation you say listen I'm sorry but what you said yesterday really hurt me and what you did you know it's something that I didn't appreciate you know that really hurt my feelings and you know I try to ask you to not do it you know don't forget to come home don't go out of your bodies or that that upsets me but you say it in

17:10 a nice peaceful way so we don't have conflict conflict is not good we will discuss things but when our temperature comes down but when somebody again is trying to you know hurt one of our children or we see somebody trying to hurt somebody one of our neighbors yeah we're going to run and get angry to help that person somebody trying to steal something from my neighbor yeah we're going to y

18:00 okay I I didn't look this way y so I believe like touching on the predestination a little bit and going back I believe that is from being in America we have been programmed by protestantism this church probably 90% converts from protestan so looking at that how would you to just to and I think that's why we read or try we had that fire because we want to go out there and show our former you know Protestant brothers and sisters the truth

18:46 and you you see a lot of Kickback that we're Catholics you know and but we're really not and then we try to defend you know Salvation uh Mary icons uh sacraments you know they they they only believe in two really and then with baptism there's always infant baptism also I know I just hit you with a lot but how would you defend it but be instructive also well I I believe that when you're trying to discuss with a person that's not orthod dox they're not open-minded you know they are you can say something once or twice and see if they are

19:32 receptive but if they are not the best way to approach them is to just always be very happy around them to be very happy around them and so show a lot of joy and show that you're now a better person that you used to be and I think those things are going to change people much faster than anything else all the the internet combats that you know you have people fighting on the internet and calling each other names that's childish that's unall for invite them to church say listen and wait until they are unhappy with their church if they're extremely happy where they are where they are right now let them

20:18 be let them ask you questions but if they're really happy and they're happy they're a pastor this is not the time to begin to minister to them they're happy but sooner or later something will happen and they'll begin to question their faith that's the time for you to say a few things listen I've been Orthodox for the last 5 10 years and this is why I became Orthodox if you like to visit our church come and then you would just V have him visit a couple times meet the priest especially if the priest was also a convert that helps and let the Holy Spirit do the

21:03 work sometimes we try to save them too quickly by thinking that if we just fill their mind with arguments and argument against argument and you know just keep fighting back and forth we may help someone but in the long run we're I think we're waste a lot of time and we should really focus in that time on sanctifying ourselves for spending two three hours on the internet trying to change people you know at least half of a time should go into the Jesus prayer into the church services prayer so we can begin to really be very receptive to the grace of God be receptive to the to the Holy Spirit and once we walk in the spirit

21:51 then people will see it once we have peace and you know you've been reading say sarim bring peace in your heart and and then thousands of people will be changed around you but the Peace of Christ if you bring the Peace of Christ the love of Christ The Joy of Christ in your heart people will be changing around you without having to do much yes Bishop NEOS of morphew said that his father and the conversations his family had at the dinner table were instrumental in his spiritual formation I was wondering you could share with us which part of your little church has been the most impactful to your

22:40 journey I think very early on from childhood I really I I love reading and uh I was a good student and um my mother she really LED chanting as well she would chant in church espe during Hollywood and uh one of my uncles was a chanter from a very small child I've remember and I was so I was rejoicing when some of these small children were chanting and you know saying the Lord's Prayer well these are the things when I was six seven 8 10 years old these holy images those these healthy images from my past and one of the priests that I

23:26 was really impressed because of his chanting he knew the tones well in byzantin we have eight tones and you can chant holy God I us with eight different tones every different Sund would change a tone so he really impressed me but when I was probably 11 years old at the time and when I came to America at 14 and backslide I mean nobody taught me the faith obviously people were literate back then the priest just read he did the liturgy in that city was not permitted to teach or do a sermon because they were farmers they didn't they had other jobs so unfortunately I just like the paraly paraly paralytic said I have no

24:15 man I didn't find a man until I was 30 years old in this country lot of orthod Dos around me but nobody's said here this is the way don't do this is uh this is how you get to the kingdom of God none of that we went to church but there was no basic catechism about same thing with my siblings and U and it was in this country that you know Christ send a man for me a a very zealous priest who later on became a Confessor and he also came to Christ when he was 30 years old you know that age and he was pretty

25:02 much uh a nominal very nominal Christian understood basically nothing until he was 30 years old but then something happened in his life and changed overnight and after that he was on fire for the rest of his life he's a beautiful age 30 years old yes yeah it's a good age age of wisdom that's when we grow up I don't know about now I some 40 years old still still struggling but um so and then of course that priest made a very great impact in my life immediately I became very zealous for the faith and then I flew to Greece to start meeting holy people and then I met father mos in

25:48 1988 and uh he became my mentor for about 20 years and the rest is history still struggling thank you had a question I think yeah um would you agree that having a good understanding of christology would help your understanding of ecclesiology like they're married basically going to almost what he was saying with his question you understand more chology it help you understand your ecclesiology a lot better well ecclesiology is not going to make you're a better person what going to make a better person is practicing the faith the simple things

26:33 saying I'm sorry honey I was wrong um you know putting the other person first practicing the simple virtues we have the Practical virtue first and then we have theor so a matter of fact if you go to a monastery they will not allow you to read theology they don't teach theology they don't teach the Jesus prayer the first thing they teach you at monasteries take a broom and go suet take a broom go take this go go clean the bathrooms that's what they'll teach you first to be obedient to do the simple things to humble yourself because once you humble yourself and begin to bring their mind

27:20 into their heart then as you purify your heart then you will be able to understand the because theology is a very high gift why you mean ecclesiology in a sense ecclesiology is a very very high gift understanding the church who's who understands the church the church is a mystery that's a gift of the Holy Spirit like the sacs and all those things not not like the Western former ecclesiology I'm trying to say well not that for you're talking about living as a Christian there you go yeah the life of the church there you go the the prec be I think my be my topic tomorrow maybe the the presuppositions of the Christian life there are some

28:07 presuppositions and they're very basic and the first one is obedience renunciation if you look at uh St John of the latter renunciation of the world getting away from the world you know getting away from some buddies that yeah pull us the wrong direction you know all these basic things and then just coming and praying learning how to pray 5 10 15 20 minutes a day and adding five minutes trying the Jesus prayer five minutes two minutes whatever those simple things reading the scriptures every day and so we we have

28:54 their practical theology first and then we go into the theory you know we Pur as we purify our heart then we'll become illumin to understand the deeper things of the church understand some of the things of the lgy but you know it doesn't children don't understand you know it we're not dependent on our understanding someone can feel the grace of God in their heart just by being in the church I mean do we pay attention through every word of the Liturgy no but just by being in the church by being around our brothers and sisters by practicing the faith you know we get that Praise by

29:40 osmosis we're here because you know this this this place is praise pack sir yes um you mentioned earlier uh that as an Orthodox Christian if you read about kind of miracle and it's it's a very unique type of miracle and intense and you that it's okay you don't have to accept it or or reject it just put it aside yeah if you don't understand it you say okay well perhaps it happened right but then you then you mentioned um that as an Orthodox Christian we we do have to accept certain doctrines but I was wondering when you use the term Doctrine were you using it

30:25 interchangeably with Dogma yeah okay pretty much I don't I don't know the difference really you know I you can enlighten me but I think it's pretty close okay so um uh like if you read the book of TOA the Protestants through the book of toet out because there's something that the angel does at the end of the book he tells him to go find a fish and do something with a fish and then uh the demon will smell the smell of the fish and go away I don't understand that but I'm not going to give up on the whole book because of that right and there's you know some King I think sacrificed his daughter in

31:11 the Old Testament God doesn't allow humans but it happened I'm not going to give up on the Old Testament because I don't understand why that happened just don't understand it but someday I will meet someone the answer is in a church I will meet someone I'll be patient and they explain it to me but I don't lose faith in the church because I believe that this is if the church to this day has over 100 Saints in the last century alone I think the Catholic Church they just found a young men and they're trying to what did he do I think he made some websites and they want to canonize it this man you know was baly was a good kid he made a few websites to spread the

31:57 FI so now we're going to make him a Saints and they search all over the world and they found two healing somewhere okay again that's fine that's I'm not saying again this young man was a good young man and Mother Teresa was a wonderful woman in India she save some orphans but they don't have the uncreated light St pus was the AR created light almost every night you saw Mar con FR will see the uncreated light of every ly but fos would go in space and and explain things to the astronauts that they couldn't understand it was like it

32:43 was the Holy Spirit was rushing in him he would look 500 500 uh meters into the Earth and tell you exactly where the water stream under the Earth is where you going to dig the well people who go there just for that say what am I a driller you know like a weth why are you coming here I mean these are Miracles that are Apostolic we don't see these in another Christian jurisdiction or non-Christian you know so that in itself again convinces us that this is it the fruit is the same if the faith is practiced properly it becomes a work a workshop of

33:30 saints that's very encouraging for us and that's why God has Saints at every Century we never had a century in Orthodoxy without Saints and many of them follow question yes um what is the orthodo stand on on exorcism there was a a video I saw recently that was shared by me I shared to me I'm sorry um it was it was interesting because it was an orthodox priest here in America that was concerned about uh uh priest not being trained in exorcism so he actually got trained by Catholics he says but but remained Orthodox so what do what does what does the church stand on on just a topic in general of exorcism due to the Train the

34:17 church the church of the ages the Church of Christ okay the Church of Christ and we have to we have to make we have to we have to differentiate between the administration of the church some Bishops who don't want to be written up in newspapers as uh practicing things of of the Middle Ages and what the truth of the church is in Greece we had an exorcist by the name of say is a saying now s Savas AOS he was outside of Athens and he exercised dozens of people

35:03 at a time I visited him many times there were dozens of demon possessed people there and he I mean he exercised hundreds of people but that gets in the news and that gives us a bad name that makes us look like we are the Church of the Middle Ages because people don't believe in demons they they don't believe in a devil so we have to be able to differentiate between the secularized church the church that will be outside of the temple around the courtyard in the 11th chapter of Revelation the courtyard the members of that church will not be written in the

35:48 Book of Life they worship they will they will worship the Antichrist and then we have the those who believe in the consensus of the fathers and yes there are demons today regardless if they drug these people so bad that you know we don't know they don't know how to think or what to think they just make zombies out of them but yes we have to in Greece and other places who have exorcism but you have to be ready a priest has to fast for three days the priest himself has to be very strong it's not about being trained it's a gift of the holy spirit it's a gift that the Holy Spirit gave to the apostles Jesus gave to the

36:35 apostles in your power in your name we exercise demons isn't the same name today just because our priests lost a little bit of the flavor of Orthodoxy doesn't mean that gift doesn't exist just like the gift of tongues it's not necessary but sometimes it is a Frenchman will go to St pus and St P will speak all night and the other men heard him in perfect French haven't repeated and another late Theologian which I admire very much Demetrius pavos who also came to Christ at the age of

37:22 30 and he had about 600 hours of of of talks Mir lay Theologian in San Francisco you know this grandfather was telling his his grandson I told you to learn Greek all these years you you didn't learn any Greek so you didn't understand anything this preacher said so father what you talking about you spoke English all this time the Holy Spirit was translating the language and the child was listening in English all these things are in the church but you know with hundreds of translators we don't really need that gift today the greater gift is love joy peace those are the higher

38:08 gifts and the gift of theology it's very high that's why we have very few theologians in the church we only have like three maybe four theologians three or four St John St Gregory who's the third one um St John St Gregory Simeon in new Theologian and then sayas like the four yes um I don't know that much about um the popular Bishop online the Assyrian

38:55 Bishop he's a self-made Bishop right he selfmade he's uh he belongs to his own church he's his own church his own person um some of the things he says a lot of what he says are wonderful I admire him very strong he very I mean very vocal you can say 99 truths and all you have to say is one lie which is theoris historian ISM and you're done I don't think he ever does chant Christ is risen from the dead have you ever heard him chant that why not so because if Christ had won nature if God has won nature then who died on

39:42 the cross God right so my question is does he still do good or does he sometimes hurt Christianity of course of course and I I pray that God Saves him somehow look nothing is final this man who's like this today five years from now he can leave and go be a monk somewhere and become a saint that's why you don't judge anybody we love everyone you know I think he's doing great things I don't agree with the things that he's doing and saying I mean you know um but if he's helping a few people God will be the judge of that but so I guess my second question is if you you have a friend who's uh

40:29 going through catechism that sends you content from him should you remind that friend about that 1% well you can tell him listen I before I become very solid in my faith I only want to hear from people of my faith and at this point he doesn't belong to my church so until I read the lives of all the of my church until I read St John and christom and St athanasas and until I read all that then after I do all that then I will listen to him but it's curiosity see and that's why I'm really getting a little fed up with YouTube because the average person

41:14 spends they are czy they spend four minutes on my lectures I go and see how that's right prer to have 300 viewers we're going to listen to what I'm saying and learn something than those who are grazing and purposely I I don't put very strong titles if you put something like the end of the world is near oh you'll get 5,000 views people do that purposely the Antichrist is here 10,000 View and that's what lar does the end is near and you're just basically lasting after views I don't agree with that that's vain Glory don't want to

42:03 judge yes um earlier when you mentioned um that the person who goes in priz before the icon priz will be the one that gets saved I started thinking about that when you said you have a problem and you give it to the Lord you say Lord help me I wrote this so I'm just going to read it um I said all sin is equally offensive to God so how do I get to the place where I look to the intentionality of the sin part of me desires to sin and part of me desires to do good but sometimes the desire to sin is stronger some sins I fall into quickly and naturally and others take more planning and those sins concern me the most intentional sin is dangerous and scares me because I fear I will stop seeking God's forgiveness how do I stop consciously killing my faith that's a very that's a beautiful

42:49 prayer that person has a lot of self- knowledge he has aosa he has self knowledge and that cry really touches God that person will never be lost because he has he knows his dilemma like you know in front of you I have seen in front of you only to you that's like David same things so you know we continue to go in front of God regardless if our passions are stronger than us we we never never despair this is the key see what's dangerous about Sin is Sin and the devil can convince

43:34 you to despair they can convince you that there's no use you can't beat that passion so why continue to vote confession you're going to say the same to the priest every month every month every month forget it I'm just not going to go that's a deception deception of the devil you continue to go to confession every month every month every month and let him hear the same thing and by that perseverance and your Zeal for help God will come his grace will come and deliver you at some point when he going God decides so we will go in front of the icon and then whenever we're next to the priest we'll confess to the priest but

44:21 before we go to confession we go in front of the icon do that kind of Prayer and Saint epim the Syrian if you read some of the prayers of these Saints this is Lord you know I am DEC composed I am a man of I'm decomposed my bones my I'm done I can't get up unless you save me unless you pull me up I can't pull myself up this is how the the Saints pray unless you make an exception you know and people will beg God please pray make an exception for me

45:07 and that kind of prayer really is very fruitful course it has Contrition it has self- knowledge humility and God is with that person regardless if right now he's still at an infant State and he can't get up but he will the most dangerous sin is despondency all the other sins you know as long as we convince ourselves that God will take us back regardless of course we have to make an effort but right now I can you know saying epim says a person

45:54 who's in decomposition they cannot they're totally paralyzed like this paralytic you couldn't run into the water you wanted to though and after 38 years because of that desire Christ R and found it believe that that man was born 5 years before Christ was 38 years it was paralyzed to show us that we can be paralyzed by sin for 20 30 years but we have that hope we don't lose hope God will find us one more question yes sir maybe it's

46:42 going to throw the flow off the conversation maybe more theological question um do you think or how do you understand if the son in flesh the man did he experience the full essence of God are you talking about Christ mhm that you experience the full essence of God since he was God is God is fully God and obviously he has 100% God and 100% men so he's fully God and of course he has say that experience the essence of God I think that's a long term

47:28 is God you know he he he he says I am who I am even the flesh experiences the flesh the Divinity is United is united with the humanity with the humanity okay and you have the interchange of the attributes you have the exchange of the attributes so as men of course he hurt he experienced pain he experienced everything a human

48:15 experiences except sin except despair he never Sinn never had any other passions he had the innocent passion and he didn't need to eat he didn't need to drink he didn't need to sleep but he did those things voluntarily he ate voluntarily he slept voluntar he didn't have to sleep because it was a constant state of fosis from the very conception and when someone someone is at the state of es then the physical laws will not

49:02 apply right fire fire doesn't burn you at the state of phares the three young the three young men into fire Christ went there God Christ he went in there and he created Divinity theosis the energy of God all around these Street and and the physical fire did not touch the uncreated fire the uncreated light so to say that he experienced the fullness of God yeah of course he fully God and he's God In the

49:50 Flesh but he experienced death in his body his soul never died with the soul he was in Hades with a body in the Tomb and United with a holy trinity in his divinity it's the mystery the mystery of godliness great is the mystery of godliness mystery of Christianity God appeared in the flesh it's a mystery so we cannot really dissect these things as much as we would like I hope I have

50:35 this question brings to mind to me that we know Saints have gone without eating for 30 days of course yes they Moses Moses 40 days he ate nothing on on Mount sin he drunk nothing because when when the Divinity is involved bra then physical nature doesn't apply so in my mind with this example plus all the other saints that we know can go without eating without sleeping uh standing for Endless amount of time it goes to show that the Holy Spirit Divinity is in them just as you

51:22 could imagine well the grace the grace the created Grace of the Holy Spirit abides in them for the ad duration so that helps us to understand that Christ had both Divinity and Humanity but the two Natures are UNC confusedly United Okay UNC confusedly the two don't in other words men he didn't have all the knowledge of God as men but because of the exchange of the attributes then he's all knowing that's why you can say look uh when the father only the father knows

52:09 the end don't ask me he wanted to tell the apostles listen it's not for you to know the time and the seasons humanly he doesn't know okay but because of the Union of the two natures you have the exchange of the Divine attributes with the human so we can say that God died on the cross can we say that okay because in Christ we have one person one person two Natures one person so the exchange of the attributes take place directly on the want personal price and not between the two natures

52:57 okay so was one person of God yeah he's one person and he does the human things was a human and the Divine things was God with his Humanity he cried when he was approaching Lazarus with this humanity and then with his Divine says Lazarus get up so we have both attributes and we have Divinity and Humanity working together but the one does what's human and the other does What's divine but one person this is again this is a this is the mystery that one person is doing all this and not two persons
