A sermon on the Eve of the last Sunday of the Holy Fifty Days by the late priest Bishoy Kamel

Next Sunday will be Pentecost, and by the grace of the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, we remember that on the last Pentecost, or on the evening of Wednesday, the Lord Christ completed His mission regarding His coming to the world, His incarnation, His crucifixion, and His resurrection. The response we say in the church or in the Gospels or in all our prayers is that Christ ascended to the heavens and sat at the right hand of His Father, as we have spoken before. It’s like someone who has a journey of a thousand kilometers and has reached kilometer 999; he still hasn’t reached his destination. He walked 999 kilometers, and there’s still one kilometer left. Of course, he hasn’t arrived yet. But when Christ, as the church says, ascended our firstfruits to heaven and took our body in its blessed body, He sat at the right hand of the Father. Everything is completed.

Christ came into the world and incarnated not just to save us from sin. What if He forgave us our sins, what would happen next? Or is it to manage our affairs, provide for us, and arrange them every time we ask Him? Christ came specifically to take the Church and place it at the right hand of the Father, and He told His disciples, “Stay here, there is something very important that I have not done for you yet.” They said to Him, “You have done everything… You died on the cross, took our body, died with it, and rose with it… What is left after that?” He said to them, “There is still something, I have not done it for you yet. I am going to send you the promise of the Father, ‘the Holy Spirit’… as my ultimate goal is to reveal to you a secret truth that you, as Christians, should keep… because you are not slaves… You are children of the King, and I am going to send you the Spirit… the Spirit of the Father… specifically, I will send you the promise of the Father that proceeds from the Father.

When the Promise of the Father comes upon you and dwells in you… the Spirit that is in you is the Spirit of the Father, and the Spirit itself will testify that you are children of God. On that day, you will not ask Me anything, for the Father Himself loves you, and His Spirit is present with you. As we say… He instructs the disciples and tells them not to think that everything has been completed. They asked Him, “What is left?” He told them, “I will send you the Spirit of the Father, which will proceed from the Father. I will send Him to you, and He will dwell in you; then you will never have to fear anything because you are children of the Lord.” And as we talked last time, or I don’t know when… Since Thursday, we said that the original goal of the Lord Christ is to bring us into the Fatherhood of the Father, and the main purpose of the descent of the Holy Spirit on Pentecost is that the Spirit of the Father dwells in us so that we can say, “Our Father.” All these matters are done so that we ultimately become children of God. And if Adam was expelled from Paradise and lost his rank of hearing the voice of God… that he should be God’s obedient and good creation… and that he has a longing for life with God… in this age of new grace, Christ will not bring us back to Paradise to our original rank, but we will be His children. I want you to be aware and able to deeply understand that the Fatherhood of God is not just in words… not just that He called us like this… or adopted us, but He poured His Spirit into us… poured His Spirit into us, which is the Spirit of the Father.

The duty we want to set before us this week is chapters 14, 15, 16, and 17 of the Gospel of our teacher John because from 14 to 17… Christ began to speak to His disciples about the Father openly. Amazing words… Between you and me, we still have the Holy Spirit with us, and we cannot comprehend His depths and knowledge because we do not give the Holy Spirit the ability to work in our lives to reveal to us the nature of the Father… But tomorrow at the beginning of chapter 14 underline the word “Father,” and you will find that the four chapters talk about the Father… He had not spoken about the Father before, and there was confusion in the minds of the disciples. Thomas asked Him, saying, “We know the way.” He said, “How can I know the way?” The way in Christianity is like this: the Father loves the Son, the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of love. The Father and the Son are one, and I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me… So what is the way to reach the Father?… The Lord Jesus says that you should not tire yourself; the way to reach the Father is not about cleverness or intellectual ability, but the Father Himself sent His Son. The Word of the Father took our flesh, took this body, and was raised to the right hand of the Father, then sent us the Spirit of the Father to dwell in us. This is the way… Now you understand when Thomas says to Him, “Show us the way,” Jesus replies, “I am the way.” This means, Thomas, there was no other path for humanity to return to the bosom of the Father again and realize the Fatherhood of the Father, except when I took on flesh, united with it, ascended with the body of humanity to the right hand of the Father, and sent the Holy Spirit from the Father to dwell in it. This is the way… So this way is not in human ability or effort.

That’s why we became the children of God, meaning that despite the difference, the son does not have the merit over his father and mother and says to them, “You are the ones who brought me here… I brought myself.” They would tell him, “Oh my son, we are the ones who brought you.”

 

They say to him, “Show us the way… What way?… For what purpose?… Do you think the way is to be a righteous and pious man who fears God and is among God’s people!… No… the way means to enter into the count of God’s children… and to be born from above… So this process of Christ was calculated very precisely… The initial motive for it was love because the relationship between the Father and His children should be a relationship of love… this is the bond that connects them. And so God loved the world so much that He gave His only Son… And God spoke about this verse specifically at the time He was discussing how we are born from above with Nicodemus, who asked Him: How can I enter the Kingdom of God?… He told him, don’t think that this will be a kingdom with a gate… and we will select the good people and hold them accountable.

The kingdom of our Lord is the kingdom of the Son of His love. So how, Nicodemus, will you enter to become a son? He said, “Oh, so I have to enter my mother’s womb again.” And He began to speak to him: The kingdom in Christianity is understood as meaning birth. This means that in order for me to be in the kingdom of God, I must be born of God. He asked, “Okay, how can I be born of God?” He replied, “I will tell you about being born of water and the Spirit through baptism. But you must know that the power of birth from baptism and its effectiveness is through Christ because I gave my only Son so that He may unite with you, die for you, and rise with you, and lead you to heaven. There is no other way to know God.

Now we have understood what it means to know God: that He has given you His fatherhood, and that we are to be His children. There is no way to grasp the knowledge of God except through Christ. What other way could there be?! The path that God could have drawn would be an artificial sonship. It would mean taking someone from the street and saying, “Oh my son, I will call you my son from today, and you will call me ‘Dad’.” Does God want to do that with people? He says all this creation is the children of God. No. This sonship is a true sonship that you truly entered into the understanding of the Father’s love for us.

That’s why one of the words that is repeated very often as you read the chapters from 14 to 17 as a sign of God’s sonship is love. It says, “By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” And then they ask Him, “How can we be your children? How can we be saved?” He said, “Abide in My love.” And then at the conclusion of these four chapters, He says, “Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.” So give me that love… give them the love with which You love Me.

But I want to clarify a small point by the grace of Christ, and it can be made clear with His help in our minds. How can I take the things of Christ? He speaks of the Holy Spirit, that He will take from what is Mine and declare it to you. The Father loves the Son because of the love of unity, for the Father and the Son are one… the Father and the Son are one.

He says, “I also want them to be one in Me, just as I am one in You. I want the love that is in Me, with which You love Me, to be in them and I in them.” How will we take this? How will we share with the Lord in these things? This is a divine matter.
He said, what is this sonship?… Sonship doesn’t mean you teach the father and tell him to give some of the love you took from your father for instance..No.. It’s just that he became a son of flesh and blood. And you find in him a kind of love… Sometimes one wonders… why do you love him? He did something bad… He says, never mind… I love him because he is my son… The things we took from the Father we took through Christ… because the union of Christ with our nature in our bodies made us receive from His things, and that’s what made our teacher Paul the Apostle say in his epistle to the Colossians, “For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God,” meaning our needs are hidden with Christ God… And then he goes back to talk about glory. So how will I receive glory?… Heaven in other religions or in the ancient Egyptians or in anything… Whoever does a good deed, even if it is the weight of a grain, will receive a reward… And whoever does evil will receive a reward… There will be a judgment… That’s true… There is a judgment for the whole world… But I am talking about glory… This glory is our right as children because as long as we are in Christ, the glory that belongs to Christ we will live in… Not because it is originally our right, but because we are in Christ, we have begun to enjoy it. The things we received from our Lord, all of them through the Holy Spirit, we received them for our union with Christ, so we became one in Him.

Right now, I want to focus today’s talk on the thing we accept: the Spirit of the Father. He said, without the Spirit of the Father dwelling in you, you will not be sons. The first verse He mentioned in these four chapters, 14, 15, 16, and 17, is “Let not your hearts be troubled,” and it was repeated many times in the text. When I told you that I am going to the Father, it filled their hearts with sorrow. What does “Let not your hearts be troubled” what does it mean ? He said this is a sign of a person who has the Spirit within him. So if I am truly a temple for the Spirit of our Lord and He dwells in me, that is the Spirit of the Father. So why should I be afraid? If the Spirit of our Lord is in me, I shouldn’t be afraid because He is responsible for me. Who will guard me then? Is it the Spirit of our Lord in me or the Spirit of the Father who will guard me? Am I the one who will defend myself, or will He defend me?

This verse comforts a person greatly, especially in days when there are problems or persecutions in the church, or sometimes the devil shows us images of dark things ahead. And then we say, the Spirit of the Father dwells in us. The first word He said was, “Let not your hearts be troubled.” So, Lord Jesus, why shouldn’t we be troubled? He said: Because in my Father’s house, there are many mansions, and I am going to prepare a place for you. And when I have prepared a place for you, I will come and take you to where I am, you will be there also. But is that why we shouldn’t be troubled? He said yes, and didn’t I command you before and say, do not fear those who kill the body? For My sonship, I am taking you to be my sons forever in heaven.

Do not be troubled or afraid at all because it is impossible for anyone to harm you. This is what made Paul say while in prison, “Who can separate me from the love of Christ Jesus, even if I am in prison?” Let me tell you more than that. Is it possible for example, when I commit a bad sin… can the spirit of sonship, the spirit of the Father who dwells in me, leave me? He said, “Never… it does not leave me.” Even if someone denies Christ, acts un-Christian, leaves Christianity, and then returns and says, “Baptize me again because I want to be a child of God,” I would say to him, “It is impossible; the Spirit of God never left you.”

Where was the Spirit of God? He said, “He was sad,” that is why the Bible says, “Do not grieve the Spirit of God who dwells in you.” So, the Holy Spirit does not leave even the sinful person. You know, if the Spirit were to leave the sinful person during our moments of weakness, we wouldn’t be able to repent again. Because when He comes, He convicts us of sin, and He is the one who leads us to repentance, and He is the one who stirs our conscience. He is the one who brings us back to our Father’s bosom. He is the one who made the prodigal son say, “I will arise and go to my father.”

I want to showthat this sonship is not just a simple sonship; the Father is not willing to let go of His children, and that’s why He says, “Do not let your hearts be troubled.” Just have confidence that you are in My care materially, and even if they kill your bodies, I have gone and prepared a place for you… Maybe I want to bring you into a greater glory, and what I will do for you is where I am, you will be also… and the spirit of fatherhood… If you ask a father, “Why are you happy?” he will tell you, “When my son is in my arms…” And if you ask the son what makes him happiest, he will say, “When I am with Dad…” True, the father is responsible for his son’s material needs… and the son rejoices in his father’s material gifts… but the great joy is that both are in each other’s bosom and together… This is the essence of what the Holy Spirit aims for in our lives… but it is never realized because we, as children, sometimes do not behave well…

However, we notice in Christ’s farewell discourse, chapters 14, 15, 16, and 17, He says first, “Where I am, you will be also…” And in the last verse, He says, “Father, I want those You have given Me to be with Me where I am, and to see My glory.” So all of us, from now on, the Spirit of our Lord that is within us, we sit with Him for a while, then we drift away a bit, and we get caught up in the worries of the world again, and we talk about the cost of living a bit and politics, and we gossip about people a bit, and about the world’s problems and circumstances and events… etc. But we return again and tell ourselves to sit with our Lord. There are times in our lives when we sit with our Lord a little… The Holy Spirit will not rest until the Son is in His Father’s embrace all the time. The saints practiced this experience, but even if we do not practice it in our lives on earth, we will experience it with our Lord in our lives when we are in His embrace forever.

The first point He emphasizes is to be careful that none of God’s children become troubled or afraid: “Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” Do not ever be afraid. Oh Lord, we are just ordinary people, but I am responsible for you. I cannot forget a pious priest, our father Michael Ibrahim, when one would sit with him and say, “My son, who cleans the house… the one who lives inside? Or the house that cleans its walls?” I would say, “The one who lives inside the house.” He would say, “Well, it’s the Holy Spirit who lives inside this house; it’s the Spirit of the Father.” Who makes you a child of God? Is it you who makes yourself a child of God, or is it the Spirit of the Father within you? Who cleanses you from sin? Who keeps you safe? Who prepares you? It is the Spirit of the Father who dwells within you. So this is a point you can quickly grasp: whenever He speaks about the Father… I want to tell you things about these four chapters, but of course, our time will not allow. However, I open a door for you to catch beautiful things in these four chapters. Every time He talks about the Father, you will find double talk… talk about the Holy Spirit and about the Father… about the Holy Spirit and about the Father… because the Holy Spirit is the Father. So the first point we said is that we do not fear, and I also told him once that we say it will proceed from the Father because it is the Spirit of the Father.

It is true that the Christ who will send Him, and there is a difference between sending and emanation. I mean, when I send something, I take something and send it… but emanation is a natural process… like this light that emanates from the bulb… it emanates like that… the bulb does not run out and the light comes out of it… meaning if the bulb does not run out, but God, the Spirit of God the Father… His Spirit emanates from Him… And because His Spirit is unlimited, it emanates from the Father in the Son. And because the Son took our body, we have received a share of the Holy Spirit emanating from the Father… So the Father is unlimited and the Holy Spirit is unlimited, so it emanates in an unlimited way to dwell in the unlimited Son… meaning it cannot emanate from the Father in a human being like me and you… But because Christ took our body and we became members of His body, the emanation of the Holy Spirit is from the Father in the Son, this is our share in Christ Jesus.

That’s why our church is always aware when we say the Holy Spirit who emanates from the Father… all the Western churches, with their various denominations, did not pay attention and said, “Well, the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of the Father and the Spirit of the Son.” They say that when we mention the creed, we should add the part “who emanates from the Father and the Son”… But we say “No”: the one who emanates from the Father in the Son, or we do not say “in the Son” because it is a natural concept, because if the Spirit of God is unlimited, how can it emanate from the Father and the Son to settle in what? In a limited human being?! He is an unlimited Spirit emanating from an unlimited Father to dwell in the unlimited Son.

And our share of the Holy Spirit is our union in Christ that we received through His incarnation. He says, “Let not your hearts be troubled, do not be afraid, for I have prepared a place for you.” Let’s explain this piece by piece so I can show you how you can walk through these chapters. I am going to prepare a place for you; I knew, for example, in my Father’s house there are many mansions. What is the place that you, Jesus, are going to prepare up in heaven? Are you going to build buildings? Are you going to build us apartments? He said no. The place is at the right hand of the Father. And my preparation for the place… How will you prepare the place? He said I will prepare the place by taking the body of Christ, taking my body, which is the Church, and placing it at the right hand of the Father. So I have prepared a place for the whole Church. So where is my place? And now I know where the room I am sitting in is. He said, “Yes, I know where it is.” I am a member of the body of Christ, and Christ ascended to heaven and sat at the right hand of the Father. I know my place; my room is the one I am sitting in at the right hand of the Father. Do you see how? Let not your hearts be troubled; I am going to prepare a place for you. What is the place you are preparing for us up there? A place in the physical sense? He said, “No, a place where you will be at the right hand of the Father.”
So I want to know if I took my place and received it, did I write the contract for the apartment that I will be living in, or not yet? I tell you, I found out where my place is… I found out the number of the apartment… and I learned everything… You ask me how I knew all this? I tell you because I am His son… I am His son and I know what it means to prepare a place for us… to prepare it for the children of God. That is the meaning of the phrase “I am going to prepare a place for you”… Because we didn’t have a place in the Father’s house… So when we united with His body and He united with our body and ascended with this body to the right hand of the Father, He prepared a place for us at the right hand of the Father. And the Spirit of the Father dwells in us (the promise of the Father), and in this way, we now have a place. Do you understand now the place and are you sure of it? Yes, my place now is that I am a child of God.

And see, if we live in this concept deeply, then your existence on earth or in heaven will never differ… whether you are here or in South Africa… or here… or in another house or another church… because in reality, in this case, you have become a member of the body of Christ. And your place has been determined and recognized, and it is at the right hand of the Father, and the Spirit of the Father is the one who dwells in you.

I am going to prepare a place for you. He says, “O Lord, how do we know the way?” I explained to you, I take it to you verse by verse. He asks, “How do we know the way?” Jesus replied, “I am the way,” of course, so that we have a place. The place is the fatherhood of the Father for us and the indwelling of His Spirit in us. So how is the way? The way is that Christ took our body and united with it and ascended with this body to the right hand of the Father and took the Promise of the Father. So indeed, He is Christ… He is the way, “I am the way.”

Then He began to talk to them about the Father: “I am the way; no one comes to the Father except through Me.” What does that mean, O Lord? Does that mean you are choosing people? He said: No… it’s not about choosing people because no one can ascend to the right hand of the Father except the Son. So whoever is united with the Son is the one who has a place there… and whoever is not united with the Son has no place. This is not a harshness from Christ, but no one can come to the Father except through Me.

If you had known Me, you would have known my Father also. This is another verse. You will grasp them like this, verse by verse… How do they know God ?… They say God is known by reason… What kind of reason can understand God? It understands nothing… That reason doesn’t even understand its own benefit… So what does that mean?! It means if you had known Me, you would have known my Father… I am the Son of the Father… If you unite with Me, then knowledge here is the knowledge of unity with Christ… If you know Christ, then you will know the Father because He is His Father… If you are in the body of Christ, then you are at the right hand of the Father, and you have known Him.

Do you understand what if you had known me, you would have known the Father means ? That’s why when He speaks about knowledge, He emphasizes very much the Holy Spirit as the one responsible for knowledge… He teaches, guides, reminds, and introduces us to the Father and takes from what belongs to Christ and gives it to us.

Here, knowledge has taken a reverse direction… Instead of knowledge being the knowledge of a human about God according to human ability and reason… Knowledge has become the outpouring of the Holy Spirit in a person according to the breadth… According to the richness of God and the richness of His Spirit and according to how much your heart opens, He gives you the Spirit of knowledge.

So how do we know our Lord? A very simple person with little knowledge, and may not know how to read or write, but his knowledge of the Father is very great because he is steadfast in Christ and walks in Him. The topic is quite intertwined; He said, “Whoever loves Me will be loved by my Father, and We will come to him and make our home with him,” in the same chapter. If love is a sign of knowing God, then God’s love will be poured into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, and now we will enter into knowledge: how do we know God?

We know God through prayer, through pouring out, through humility, through love, and other things that are not in the minds of those who know God. God tells you to know Him by reading the Book, reading the scriptures, engaging your mind, and contemplating nature. The heavens declare the glory of God, and you can know… and the mind… and the mind… and the mind… etc.

Then we go back and say that when we humble ourselves, love, and unite with Christ, the knowledge of God is poured into our hearts. You might say to me, “Father, as I read the Gospel now, I understand things I never understood before; where did this come from?” I would tell you, to the extent that you are humble before God, love Him, and love His word, He does not withhold. He pours out His Spirit and fills your heart with love for Him. So you begin to love God and know Him more and more, and you become happy and joyful… this is knowledge.

From now on, you know Him and you have seen Him. Philip said to Him, “Show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” He said, “You have seen Him because you are in Me. And now I am ascending with you to heaven, so you have seen the Father because you are in Me.” Philip replied and said to Him, “Show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” He said to him, “Oh Philip, I have been with you all this time… But I am God, Philip, yet I made Myself of no reputation and took on flesh to make Myself known to you… And when you abide in Me, you will find the phrase ‘Abide in Me’ repeated many, many times… especially in chapter 15.

He says, ‘I am the vine, and you are the branches; abide in Me…’ And in this chapter 16, He says, ‘Abide in My love…’ Philip says to Him, ‘Show us the Father, and it is enough for us…’ He said to him, ‘Be quiet now, Philip, for I and the Father are one; he who has seen Me has seen the Father.’ You are talking about how to see God… How can you see God when I am the way… I am the way… this completes the matter. I do not speak from Myself, but the Father who dwells in Me. Believe Me that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me… All these verses confirm the oneness.

Assuredly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do. Do not stop at this word “do,” this is a point I want to tell you. There are many verses in these four chapters that explain it directly. For example, it says: “Do not touch me, for I am ascending to my Father.” This is already explained… because I have not yet taken you and gone up to the Father… because you are not yet a child of the Father… because I want to tell her, you are a stranger; right now, He says My Father and your Father, as we are both in duality until I ascend and take you up.

So here He says, the works that I do, he who knows the Father will do them and do greater works. Whoever believes in Me, the works that I do, he will also do greater works… and how is that?!… because I am going to my Father. Look, when you put the word “because I am going to my Father,” it becomes explained in the verse… so I do the works and greater than these because Christ is going to the Father, and I am now at the right hand of the Father, so I am doing very great works. But when I ascend to the right hand of the Father, our eyes are opened, and you will see that the works have become divine works specific to the heavens… the present, the future, and the past… all the barriers between them have been cut. So the works above… are greater works than the works of the earth. Therefore, we will do the greater works.

Oh, now we understand because the verse continues and says, “For I am going to my Father.” But don’t take just part of the verse and say, “The works that I do you will do greater works than these.” How can I do works greater than the works that Christ does? But when He says, “For I am going to the Father, and you will be there,” it means your works will be greater than earthly works—not that you are on earth, but where is your citizenship? In the heavens, and your love for the divine and the mysteries of theology have been given to you, simple human beings. And you started to do very great works, and the motives became divine and powerful. You see, the works that I do you will do, and greater than these—why? Because I am going to my Father. See how to interpret that? It’s clear right away: “For I am going to my Father.”

Whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. Everything you ask will be done to glorify the Father in the Son… The Father is glorified in the Son, he said, “Yes.” Didn’t He say that once? “Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven.” So how is the Father glorified in the Son? He will say, “Here I am, and the children whom you have given Me, none of them is lost.”

He ascended to the heavens and raised His saints with Him and gave them as an offering to His Father. Thus, the Father was glorified. Let me tell you how: a student enters high school and studies… studies… studies all year long. At the end of the year, he passes with a very high score; thus, he is glorified… his work is glorified… and the teachers who taught him are also glorified because the teachers who taught him are the ones who gave him this knowledge. Christ came down to the world and took humanity. We have ascended and established ourselves in Him and reached above, so the Father was glorified in the Son… because He raised us up to the heavens… which means that the message of Christ succeeded 100%, and only the son of perdition perished.

And so, my dear, you can go through verse by verse in these four chapters to understand what happened in the ascension of Christ and His sitting at the right hand of the Father.
If you love me, keep my commandments. I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Comforter to be with you forever… and forever means… not just forever in this world… but forever…
And with the Spirit of truth… What are its characteristics? The Spirit of truth that the world cannot accept because it does not know it… because indeed, Christ said that “the Spirit of the Father whom the world cannot accept… it does not accept it nor knows it, and when it speaks of it, it will speak of it in ignorance because it does not know it.” They will tell you what the Father is, what the Son is, what marriage is, what they have given birth to, and what they have done… this is a cause… look how much we are sitting here talking and wandering in theology and beautiful divine matters, sitting happily, and the subject will not end, and then you will find someone come and tell you that the Father has a Son and took a companion .How can you explain it for him? it’s really difficult…

A pretty nice task is possible… Look at what He says next, “I will not leave you orphans,” of course, because if there are children without a father, what will they be? They will be orphans… If Christ had not taken the church and placed it at the right hand of the Father and said to Him, “O Father, this is Your church,” and the Father gave her His Spirit… the Spirit of the Father… and this church lives by the Spirit of the Father… and the Spirit within her bears witness that we are children of God… then the church would be orphaned, and whoever does not receive the Holy Spirit in this world is an orphan because he has no father. “I will not leave you orphans” has a very significant meaning… it means that the fatherhood of God will cover every orphanhood for a person so that he will live his whole life in the bosom of the Father for eternity. Isn’t this the prayer of Christ for us? When you pray, say, “Our Father who art in heaven…”

So you go through each verse like this… and you discover the fatherhood of the Father for you… by the time you finish these four chapters, you will understand and fully experience the meaning of the ascension that we celebrated on Thursday.

To our God be glory forever, Amen.
