Religious-extremist - With Love In Christ

To love is to suffer!

Love without suffering is a trifle.

If you’re Catholic or Orthodox, don’t buy from monasteryicons.com!

I’ve been getting a few notes from their tumblr account and as nice as it is, MonasteryIcons is owned by an anti-Christian apostate group that poses as Orthodox/Catholic/traditionalist but actually is a group that practices Hindu-adjacent paganism, magical evocation, and demonolatry. They perform pagan rituals for all of their products before they ship them out. You can quickly google it and several articles will show up.

Orthodox Christian information center has an article about Monastery Icons controversy.

If you would like to purchase handmade icons for good prices, there are numerous legitimate Orthodox monasteries all over the world. St. John Chrysostom’s Monastery in Kenosha, Wisconsin is my favorite because they are very affordable and I order from them all the time. There is also St. Anthony’s Greek Orthodox Monastery in Florence, AZ, and St. John the Forerunner in Goldendale, WA, amongst many others.

Don’t buy from MonasteryIcons, and don’t interact with their Tumblr! Their url is @/monasteryicons

God bless y’all, please be careful which companies you support.

"But nothing causes such exceeding grief as when anyone, lying under the captivity of sin, calls to mind from where he has fallen, because he turned aside to carnal and earthly things, instead of directing his mind in the beautiful ways of the knowledge of God. So you find Adam concealing himself, when he knew that God was present and wishing to be hidden when called by God with that voice which wounded the soul of him yourself? Why are you concealed? Why do you avoid Him Whom you once longed to see? A guilty conscience is so burdensome that it punishes itself without a judge, and wishes for covering, and yet is bare before God."
