In this powerful Orthodox sermon, Fr Johnson Punchakonam delves into the crucial topic of recognizing the truth and avoiding the sin against the Holy Spirit. The Slander of Christ, as mentioned in Mark 3:22, is a grave offense that can have eternal consequences. Fr Johnson emphasizes the importance of speaking truth in love and guarding our tongues to avoid blasphemy against the Spirit. He also highlights the triumph of truth and the need for spiritual discernment in our daily lives. This Gospel reflection is a must-watch for all Orthodox Christians seeking to deepen their faith and understanding of the Orthodox Church's teachings. Join us in this thought-provoking discussion on the Malankara Orthodox TV, a platform dedicated to spreading the Orthodox faith and promoting Catholicate values.

In this powerful Orthodox Christian reflection, we explore one of the most startling accusations ever made against our Lord Jesus Christ: “He has Beelzebub” (Mark 3:22). Why did the religious leaders attribute His divine works to the devil? What does this reveal about the danger of slander, spiritual blindness, and the sin against the Holy Spirit?

Through the lens of Orthodox theology, Scripture, and the teachings of the Church Fathers, we examine:

• The context and meaning of the accusation

• The spiritual nature of slander and its roots in pride

• Christ’s wisdom-filled response and the triumph of truth

• How we, as believers today, are called to guard our words and hearts

This message calls us to deep repentance, spiritual discernment, and bold witness to the truth of Christ. Let us reflect, pray, and open our eyes to the grace of God at work in and around us.
