Fr Seraphim Rose on the end times

*

I could go on with details like this, but my purpose is not to frighten you, but to make you aware of what is happening around us.

It is truly later than we think; the Apocalypse is now.

And how tragic it is to see Christians... with this incalculable tragedy hanging over their heads, who think they can continue what is called a "normal life" in these terrible times, participating fully in the whims of this silly, self-worshipping generation, totally unaware that the fool's paradise we are living in is about to crash, completely unprepared for the desperate times that lie just ahead of us.

There is no longer even a question of being a "good" or a "poor" Orthodox Christian; the question now is: will our Faith survive at all?

With many, it will not survive; the coming Antichrist will be too attractive, too much in the spirit of the worldly things we now crave, for most men even to know that they have lost their Christianity by bowing down to him.
