December 16 is commemorated the day of memory of the holy prophet Zephaniah. Experts of the Holy Scripture believe that he predicted the Last Judgment and the end of the world six hundred years before the birth of Jesus Christ.

From childhood, the boy had clear thoughts, saw God and understood his revelations. One day, a vision of the destruction of Jerusalem and the scattering of the Jews was revealed to Zephaniah, who had already grown up. After receiving this information, he began to call people to turn their faces to God in order to be saved at the Last Judgment. The prophet devoted the rest of his life to this mission.

The study of the “Book of the Prophet Zephaniah” by specialists proves that in it the saint meant not only the inhabitants of Jerusalem, but also warned all mankind about the need for righteousness in life. He reminded that the world is passing away, and the Kingdom of God will be opened to everyone who sincerely opens his heart to him.
