Saint Porphyrios the Prophet - Witnesses - Volume 1

The

holy, God-bearing and miracle-working Prphyrios Kafsokalivitis, founder

of the H.M. of the Transfiguration of the Savior in Milesi, it was that

great morning star and prophet of our generation. Through him, the

presence of the Holy Spirit in our times was confirmed once again.

The

plenitube of his virtues, his saintly way of life, his great and ample

charismata -divine clairvoyance, foresight, prophetic gift, healing

-distinguished him as a potent beacon of spiritual light that will guide

future generations. His charismata will stay with him, in all their

magnitude, until the end of his earthly life and will attest to his

being a Temple of the Holy Spirit.

The number of

testimonies regarding his profound prophetic charisma reveals the

Saint's communion with God. Christ was a friend to him. Because he had

immediate knowledge of Him, he was able to disclose His will about

future events, weights are for all of us are unknown, dark and

impenetrable. There is no doubt that the Saint progressed rapidly

through the stage of catharsis and reached enlightenment, attained

theosis (godliness), theoptia (vision of God) and Perfecting.

He

experienced divine Grace to a great degree and inspired by the Holy

Spirit, "ran" to the future and foretold what was to come with a sense

of responsibility, in order to build up the souls of men in Christ. From

the first years of his spiritual service people called him

prophet-priest.

We come across prophets in the New

Testament as well, as in the Old. The concept of prophet is attributed

also to the Disciples and the Fathers of the New Testament.

Saint

Prophyrios reposed on December 2, 1991, according to the new calender,

the feast of Prophet Avvakum, and on November 19 according to the

athonite calendar, the feast day of Prophet Avdiou. He is celebrated, as

a Prophet himself, shortly before Christmas. (From the prologue of the book)Pages: 308Dimensions: 15 x 21 cm.
