DEAD BURY THEIR DEAD

 IF YOU DO NOT KNOW THE TRUE PURPOSE OF YOUR LIVING YOU ARE ALMOST GOOD AS DEAD

WHY LORD JESUS CHRIST SAID ‘ LET DEAD BURY THEIR DEAD’ ?


Greetings in the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ to our brothers and sisters. Today is the 28th day of the month of October in the calendar year of 2026 according to the Gregorian calendar.

Brothers and sisters, we are still discussing about death.

When God pronounced death upon Adam and the woman and before that He said He gave them the breath of life. 

Many people are a bit confused understanding who God is.

Several people ask me who has created God and that's absolute silly questions.

Why? These people doesn't know or understand the meaning of eternal.

The Bible says in 1 Timothy 1:17, He is the King eternal,   immortal, invisible and the wise God. 

He is not a deity. He is not a image. He's not a statue. He's not a religious leader. 

Even the Lord Jesus Christ is not a religious leader. He became our savior to redeem me and you and on your behalf, on my behalf, pay the price of death.

So brothers and sisters, our eternal King, omnipotent, omnipresence, omniscient, the Everlasting Father is not tangible.

Though He created this whole universe 26 billion years ago or eons ago, material He created it but He is not part of the   universe. He created the universe. 

The realm of God is consisting of 10 dimensions.

And we human beings live in this planet earth with three-dimensional kind of status upon us. But there are seven other dimensions.

But my topic today is discussion about the death. So when God pronounced to Adam and say, the day you eat it, you shall surely die.

 That means what He told very clearly, dying you die.

 Dying you die. So Adam did not die instantaneously from that pronouncement. He lasted near thousand years. 

When God pronounced this punishment, there's significant reasons for it. 

Now, before Adam's era, there was Lucifer. And the Lucifer did not live in our time, Lucifer was one of the archangels like Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel.

There are 12 principal archangels who are responsible for the governing of the universe. under the instruction of the  Almighty and there are trillions and trillions of angels. 

All the time are assignments, Bible says they are the  ministering spirits. So, brothers and sisters, there are trillions of them, the whole universe run according to God's divine design, desire, and demands.

And now scientists are very clearly saying the universe  consisting of trillions of laws and mathematical formulas, the governing, the universe highly synchronized, greatly  harmonized, wonderfully organized, the whole process of the universe.

So, brothers and sisters, God entrusted the planet earth and it was Pangaea, one super continent, one super ocean called Panthalassa. Now these are scientific evidence 250 million years ago. Scientists are still grappling with this period of time with the 60 million, 100 million, or 300 million because the kind of tools they use, they don't have the perfect tools.

So however 250 million years ago is very clear because if the day they get the perfect tools to measure the dinosaurs of flesh which is the fossil oil, then I think they will understand perfectly how they would match to this numbers that disclosed in the Word of God.

So, dinosaurs lived 250 million years ago, not in our time. And they also live for 250 million years. A peaceful, harmless vegetarian animals. Suddenly they became ferocious. And suddenly the extinct came and the planet earth was frozen and their flesh got buried in the ice, and buried, buried, and went to the right to the bottom.

And it is their flesh that we are digging and bringing it to as crude fossils oil.

Today markets, all the groceries, all the cost of living has gone up in the last particularly four years because the Middle East is mainly predominantly relating to this fossils oil. 

Now, brothers and sisters, having said that Lucifer ran the past of the planet earth, perfectly for 250 million years.

God said, you were perfect in your all ways. And God gave him the privilege to have the full control of the solar system. 

Adam was restricted on your planet earth. But the Lucifer was given the full control of the solar system. From Ezekiel chapter 28:3-15, read, you will see some of the things  disclosed there. 

So, brothers and sisters, the dying you die. What happened in the beginning was not a eating an apple from an apple tree.

 Serpent was not a reptile. The sin in the garden of Eden, it's absolutely fornication and adultery. That's why serpent's seed entered into the human being. 

The woman had two kind of seeds. Seed of the Adam and the seed of the serpent. And it was Cain who is the seed of serpent. Bible very clearly mentioned that.

1 John 3:12. It's very clearly say, Cain is of that wicked one.

In 1 John 3:12, the phrase "of that wicked one" (KJV) or "of the evil one" (modern translations) describes Cain as belonging to Satan in spirit and allegiance, rather than implying a literal biological lineage. 


The text explains this spiritual affiliation through Cain's actions: he "murdered his brother" Abel because "his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous." 


Key interpretations include:


Moral Alignment: Cain is considered "of the wicked one" because he chose to hate his brother and committed murder, mirroring the devil who "was a murderer from the beginning" (John 8:44).

Action Defines Nature: The phrase indicates that Cain belonged to the evil one by virtue of his evil deeds and lack of love, demonstrating that he followed the will of Satan rather than God. 

Contrast with God: This status stands in direct opposition to being "of God," which is characterized by righteousness and loving one's brother as detailed in the surrounding verses (1 John 3:10-11). 

The verse serves as a warning against envy, jealousy, and hatred, illustrating that such destructive behaviors align a person with the influence of the evil one.

So it's very important to understand the scriptures and the Bible which disclosed everything, line upon line, precept upon precept.

 So when God told Adam, the day you indulge in this, it means you are eating from your mouth, you know and indulge in it, you shall die. That means what did he says, dying you shall die.

 That's what happened to us from the day we are born, we are dying. Now this is I want to really showcase this to you. 

The Lord Jesus Christ himself disclose about this in Luke chapter 9 verse 59-60.

So there was a man that know not everybody get the privilege of being called out, called by the Lord Jesus Christ. Only few 12 disciples and few others. 

And the church of the Lord Jesus Christ are large numbers, the religion of Christianity, Pentecostal, Evangelical, Anglican , Catholicism, it's large numbers.

 But genuine and true church of the Lord Jesus Christ headed by the Lord Jesus Christ himself, it's very small number. You have to have the calling for that's exactly what the Lord Jesus Christ mentioned in John chapter 17 verse 3 to 5. And He said to the people whom came to Him.

In John 17:3–5, Jesus defines eternal life as knowing God as the only true God and Jesus Christ as the one sent by Him.  He asserts that He has glorified God on earth by completing the work assigned to Him, and He then prays to be restored to the glory He shared with the Father before the world existed. 


The specific verses read as follows in the New King James Version (NKJV):


Verse 3: "And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent."

Verse 4: "I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do."

Verse 5: "And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was." 

Theologically, this passage emphasizes that eternal life is not merely endless existence but an intimate, present knowledge of God mediated through Jesus.  It also highlights Jesus' spirit pre-existence and divine nature, noting His shared glory with the Father prior to creation. The Word manifested in the flesh. John 1:1.

 He was the second Adam. the first Adam lost them. The second Adam had to redeem and gain them, transfer ownership to God, the people whom You have given to me, Thine they were. He said, past tense, Thine they were, and I presented them Thy revelation of Thy name. I've also presented them Thy Word.

The Word , the Word means divine consciousness.

Divine consciousness is disclosing the mind of God all the time.

So then the Lord Jesus Christ told very clearly, whom You have given to me, I present to them thy truth and thy word and thy name.

 And then, brothers and sisters, right throughout, you see, He doesn't call everybody. His calling come to very specific people. Even Judas Iscariot was chosen. But Jesus knew that he would one day betray Him. Jesus knew exactly.

But here is a situation where Jesus called a man, "Come and follow me."

That man says okay, I will follow you master. But let me bury my father and come and follow you."

And at that moment, the Lord Jesus Christ said the most alarming statement in his ministry. He said,  " Let the dead bury their dead. You come and follow me."

Let the dead bury their dead.

Who is saying? The Lord Jesus said let the dead. Who are the dead? He assume certain living people they are dead.

Let the dead bury their dead. So basically what he identified every human being is dying. That is ear mark on upon them and that's why he says the burying is a futile exercise. Absolutely. Of course, dead bodies had been buried respectfully but in a war many thousands. 

Now when Hiroshima was bombed, millions got really killed, nobody can find who their burials or their bodies.

The first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima the August 6, 1945 at 8:15 a.m.  This attack, carried out by the American plane Enola Gay with the bomb Little Boy, was followed three days later, on August 9, 1945, by the bombing of Nagasaki with the bomb Fat Man. These events precipitated Japan's surrender and the end of World War II.

So brothers and sisters when a war bombing takes place during World War I and II , you can't find pieces of the bodies of people.

So brothers and sisters that's why the Lord Jesus Christ   very significantly enlightened and says, " that I have come that you might have life and have it more abundantly."

Now you remember, brothers and sisters, Jesus experienced the full impact of the death on the cross for you on behalf of me and you, who have been called by God. And that is why in the final moments of his death, he said, "my God, my God why has thou forsaken me." 

That separation , that ending, that termination he completely experienced,

Brothers and sisters, do you know unlike the animals, God created mankind, we as his sons and daughters for a lasting relationship one another with the living God. Also the angels. Since beginning of the first creation, they all have a lasting relationship with one another, as well as relationship with the living God Almighty.

The relationships are only relevant to the Almighty and His creation.

Of course, God Almighty has a relationship with all His creation, particularly the universe which consisting of 10 trillion galaxies, solar system, planets, the rivers, mountains, trees, animals, birds, fish, all God has a relationship and that relationship is based on His law.

They have only one thing to do. To abide by the law and be responsible and accountable to God's law and His   mathematical formula. 

Whereas as I told you, brothers and sisters, our relationship with God is based on one simple thing, the love. That is why the Bible says God is love.

Apostle John very clearly profoundly saying, God is love. Read 1 John4:8.

Yes. God is love.

So what happens is our living God, His divine love is sacrificial love, agape.

Human beings' love is different. Eros kind of love. What you get is based on what you get, what you give and what you get.

Phileo also like that, brotherly or fatherly, motherly love, what you get, who you are.

 But God demonstrated agape to the angels. But He gave His divine consciousness.

 God's divine consciousness, the most supreme thing. There's nothing greater than that. The most valuable thing in the whole universe is divine consciousness. That's God's consciousness. 

God's consciousness manifests three important features. Divine wisdom, divine knowledge, divine understanding.

And by virtue of that, He has a divine perception, divine discernment and  divine conception.

And then He has being a Creator, He has the ability of divine imagination, divine visualization, divine actualization.

And in order to really take care of and run the affairs of the universe, maintain and sustain, he has his law connected to the his thinking, thought, the Logos (in Greek), the law.

When God gave the Torah, it contains 613 laws. Out of 613 laws, 248 are relating to relationship between God and the nation of Israel. 365 relating to the Israel's relationship with the society and the environment. We'll go into that subject little later. (Click here for the 613 laws)

But I want to tell you, brothers and sisters.

When God shared His consciousness, what is is a sacrifice he made gave to all the angels when given it, so that they would think with Him . To think with the living God. But you know, the archangel Lucifer was doing that for 250 million years. Suddenly he began to think about God.   Almighty God has so many things he controls and runs. He think about himself. But see me 250 million years I ran perfectly but He's only restricting me to this. Why can't He give me more galaxies to run? So Lucifer think about his inadequacies. Think about God. Not thinking with God. 

And that's why , brothers and sisters, iniquity came.   Iniquity is a formal noun that means gross injustice, extreme wickedness, or a sinful and morally wrong act.

 When you have iniquities, human love also, when you become by virtue of what you get from me, based on that love ,whether it's eros or phileo, what you get from me, what can I give, what can I get. Need-based kind of love. 

But the divine sacrificial love, agape  is different. And that is exactly what the Lord Jesus Christ presented to us. He took upon the death of every one of us. We were inside Adam. We were lost. We were inside Adam. We were lost by virtue of the act of fornication and adultery, where He wants to bring forth pure unadulterated the seed of God.

And that's exactly the Lord Jesus Christ fulfilled. He said, "whom You have given to me, none is lost, except the son of perdition. But to all of them I have given Thy name, reveal Thy name, I presented Thy Word." Given thy consciousness. And also Jesus further affirmed very clearly, John 17:22, the glory which You have given to me. 

John 17:22 records Jesus saying, "I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one." This verse is part of Jesus' High Priestly Prayer, where He communicates the divine glory bestowed by the Father to His followers. 

 That is his divine consciousness. That's why Jesus said, I'm in the Father in me, divine consciousness, glory which you have given to me, I have given to them who to the one whom you have called and given to me, for the redemption, the redeemed of the Lord, by the efficacy of the blood Jesus Christ.

 So that's why he said, let the dead, they are already dying let them do whatever they want with their dead bodies. 

But you have been called. A called for life abundant.

That's why Jesus said it's so, abundant life.

 Brothers and sisters, if you do not know the reason of your   living, the purpose of your living, if you do not know the purpose of your living, the Lord Jesus Christ is very well understood.

That's why divine consciousness, divine consciousness.

 Human consciousness is temporary. We all have human consciousness. We have human wisdom. Steven Jobs by virtue of his human consciousness, human wisdom, human knowledge and understanding, human discernment, human imagination, visualization, he created this computer. So human creation. [ Steven Paul Jobs (February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011) was an American businessman, inventor, and investor. A pioneer of the personal computer revolution of the 1970s]

 But divine consciousness of God created the whole universe, so perfectly.

So brothers and sisters, the Lord Jesus Christ having the consciousness of the Father, he fulfilled the expectation of the Father, in order to give life to you and me.

He paid the price for those who believe and trust Him.  Sinless Lord Jesus Christ gave up His life on the cross for that.

He experience total separation. Total separation on the death from the relationship with the Father. We are all created to have a relationship. Our human relationship are temporary. The animals do not have relationship. They only have relationship for population increase for their kind   after their kind birds, fish and everything. Trees also like that. But there is no purpose for trees. Trees doesn't say, let's plan for tomorrow, let's have this garden, that garden let's blossom our increase, our produce from thousand mangoes to 10,000 mangoes. No. The galaxies also doesn't. They are guided by the law of God. They are guided by the law of God.

But only the angels are aware of their purpose and they are carrying out perfectly absolutely thinking with the living God Almighty.

You and I have a purpose and that purpose is to experience the life of the Almighty.

By virtue of that we have a relationship and that relationship is a sacrificial relationship. It is not a temporary satisfaction of my flesh. It is not connected to lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes and the pride of life. It is beyond experiencing this temporary death. Because unlike any other creations, the angels are ministering to it.

They have a soul. They have eternal life. Living angels.

The rest are all fallen angels. And their determination will be made very soon once judgment comes. 

But brothers and sisters, our life is unique because we have body, soul and the spirit. Death is not only physical.

There is spiritual death. Death not the inner man. That's what apostle Paul says. I'm crucified with Christ.    Nevertheless, I live the life I now live, I live by the faith of the Son of the living God. He said, "My old man is crucified.   I'm a new creation. All things are passed away." 

So, brothers and sisters, the Lord Jesus Christ, pay the price for us on the cross, gave up His sinless life, so that you might have eternal life. I might have life. And by virtue of that life that I have, I and you is having an everlasting relationship with our Father our creator almighty living God and that relationships is not about 'thinking about God' and 'thinking about me.' It is thinking with God, with His written words. 

The relationship with God is an agape , divine love relationship. Because, brothers and sisters, that relationship, culmination of the relationship , I have the privilege of thinking with the living God. 

When you have the thinking with the living God, you have eliminated thinking about yourself.

Otherwise, whole world is thinking about themselves, ego, selfishness. That's why all kinds of calamities, curses and all these answers are there, all man-made.

So, brothers and sisters, remember a relationship with the everlasting Father, King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God and that relationship is based on your ability and my ability that God has given to us, to think with Him. 

Because the Bible say, Enoch walked with God. You can't walk with God unless you agreed with Him. How can two walk together unless they agree.

In oneness and that's how Jesus demonstrated the uniqueness of that oneness. I mean the Son in and with the Father . So that divine consciousness enable him to continuously thinking,  not think about God , but think with the Father. His Father , your Father, His God, your God. Thinking with the living God is the foundation for an everlasting relationship and that relationship is based on love. God is love. Not need-based. The Bible say the love of God is shed abroad in my heart. Apostle Paul says, love of God is shed abroad in my heart. The phrase "the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts" originates from Romans 5:5, describing the transformative experience where God’s love is poured out into a believer's heart by the Holy Spirit.  This event provides assurance of salvation, replaces shame with hope, and reorients the believer’s affections toward loving God and others. 

So brothers and sisters, it's a sacrificial love. Agape enable me to experience a love and that love is a divine relationship. Love is essential for lasting relationship.

 Today what you have is temporary love between man and woman, romantic love,  family love between parents and children,  love between brother and sister, phileo, friend and friend love .

But you know, brothers and sisters, because that  kind of love based on thinking about myself, thinking about them, thinking about God and like.

 But this agape love is thinking with the living God and that demands you sacrifice your aspirations, not to think about your personal ambitions, is to understand the design of God, the desire of God, demands of God.

 That's what faith is. Faith is not belief faith, but is understanding the design of God, the desire of God, what He disclosed to you demands. Demand of God.

And brothers and sisters, that's why faith cometh by hearing, hearing the Word of God. The design, desire and demand of God is in the Word. 

Without faith, it is impossible to please God.

So, brothers and sisters, the Lord Jesus Christ paid the price. He faced the death, took the death upon himself, so that you and I have eternallife. 

Now the question is, if you have been chosen by God, if you have the efficacy of the blood of Jesus Christ, if you have the efficacy of the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ, if you have the efficacy of the spirit of God in you, if you have the efficacy of the word of God, as apostle John wrote,

1 John 3:9, he that is born of God does not commit sin because the seed of God is in him. Yeah. 

So when you have that ,brothers and sisters, your relationship is sealed by the very spirit of God. You are a son of God. You are a daughter of God. Continuous ability of thinking with the living God Almighty. 

When you are thinking, it is a sacrificial relationship. You give up everything what you decided in the mode, decided on your flesh from the lust of the flesh, lust on the eyes and the pride of life and you really in oneness and that is exactly the Lord Jesus Christ experienced on the cross. "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken? And he experienced that separation, so that you and I, be one with the everlasting Father by virtue of the love. God's love demonstrated to us by virtue of his sacrificial love. What he gave to us, he shared with us, his own divine consciousness. So that we have the ability continuously thinking with the almighty living God. When you are thinking with the living God, you overcome every physical challenge that you face in this world. God bless you brothers and sisters.

Icelandic: Í Kristi Jesú er ég...

 (Í Kristi Jesú er ég...) 

Ég mæli fram 🗣️ það sem Guð hefur sagt um mig í Biblíunni:

„Ég er réttlæti Guðs í Kristi Jesú. Ég er ekki syndari sem berst við að þóknast Guði. Ég er ný skepna. Ég er skapaður að nýju í mynd föðurins. Sami andi og reisti Krist Jesú upp frá dauðum býr í mér og veitir dauðlegum líkama mínum líf. Ég betli ekki; ég framfylgi. Ég hef hlotið lækningu frá Drottni. Ekkert vopn, sem smíðað er gegn mér, skal verða sigursælt. Ég er meira en sigurvegari fyrir tilstilli hans sem elskaði mig.“


Segðu þetta með mér núna og leggðu allan hug í hvert orð:

„Ég er réttlæti Guðs í Kristi Jesú. Fyrir sár hans hef ég hlotið lækningu. Sá sem er í mér er meiri en sá sem er í heiminum. Ég betli ekki; ég framfylgi hinu fullnaða verki á krossinum. Ég er ný skepna. Hið gamla er liðið hjá, allt er orðið nýtt. Guð minn sér fyrir öllum þörfum mínum samkvæmt auðæfum sínum í dýrðinni, fyrir Krist Jesú. Ekkert vopn, sem smíðað er gegn mér, skal verða sigursælt. Ég er meira en sigurvegari fyrir tilstilli hans sem elskaði mig.“


Þetta er yfirlýsing um sáttmála – andlega og lagalega bindandi – borin fram af syni eða dóttur Guðs sem þekkir réttindi sín. (Hebreabréfið 3:1: „Þess vegna, heilagir bræður, sem eigið hlutdeild í himneskri köllun, beinið sjónum ykkar að postulanum og æðsta prestinum, sem við játumst við, Kristi Jesú.“)


Segðu þetta nú 🗣️ upphátt:


ÉG ER ÞAÐ SEM GUÐ SEGIR AÐ ÉG SÉ


ÉG Á ÞAÐ SEM GUÐ SEGIR AÐ ÉG EIGI


ÉG GET GERT ÞAÐ SEM GUÐ SEGIR AÐ ÉG GETI GERT


Þetta eru þrjár hliðar á einum óhagganlegum veruleika: sjálfsmynd mín, arfleifð mín og vald mitt í Kristi Jesú.


English: ( In Christ Jesus I am )  

I speak 🗣️ what God said concerning me in the Bible: 

        "I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. I am not a sinner struggling to please God. I am a new creation. I am recreated in the image of the Father. The same Spirit that raised Christ Jesus from the dead dwells in me and gives life to my mortal body. I do not beg. I enforce. I am healed of the Lord. No weapon formed against me shall prosper. I am more than a conqueror through Him that loved me."


           Say this with me right now and mean every word.

        "I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. By his stripes I am healed. Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. I do not beg. I enforce the finished work of the cross. I am a new creation. The old has passed . All things are new. My God supplies every need of mine according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. No weapon formed against me shall prosper. I am more than a conqueror through Him that loved me. "


        Thus is the spiritual legally binding covenant declaration, spoken words , from a son / daughter of God who knows his / her rights. ( Hebrews 3:1 { Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;})


        Now say 🗣️ it out loud : 


        I AM WHO GOD SAYS I AM


        I HAVE WHAT GOD SAYS I HAVE 


        I CAN DO WHAT GOD SAYS I CAN DO 


        These are three dimensions of one unshakeable reality. My Identity, Inheritance, Authority in Christ Jesus.

Two hundred 'cruise for life' passengers stranded in Cambodia

 More than 200 passengers leave Villa Vie Residences’ Odyssey in Sihanoukville after the company suspends Cambodia operations and cites surging fuel costs.

Two hundred 'cruise for life' passengers stranded in Cambodia

Villa Vie Residences' cruise ship Odyssey is seen docked at Sihanoukville port in Preah Sihanouk province on Oct 28, 2026.

More than 200 passengers leave Villa Vie Residences’ Odyssey in Sihanoukville after the company suspends Cambodia operations and cites surging fuel costs.

SIHANOUKVILLE: Around 200 passengers who paid to live on a cruise ship while travelling the world were abruptly left in a Cambodian port after the company ran out of money, an official said on Wednesday (October 28th, 2026).

US-based operator Villa Vie Residences announced on Tuesday it had "suspended operations in Cambodia" as it worked to address "extraordinary increases" in fuel costs following the Iran war.

The 200m Odyssey left Northern Ireland in October 2024 for a continuous voyage for which residents could buy or rent rooms for a holiday or for life - some passengers selling everything they had to pay for it.


However, passengers were given just seven hours to pack their bags and leave during a scheduled stop in the Cambodian port of Sihanoukville, according to Long Dimanche, deputy governor of Preah Sihanouk province.

He said in a statement 203 guests and 156 crew had arrived aboard the Bahamas-flagged ship from Thailand on Oct 23, and had been due to go on to Vietnam.


"The sudden order to disembark has left many retirees and remote workers homeless thousands of miles from their home countries," he said.


Some passengers took flights out while others remained in the city, he said, adding that the ship itself was due to refuel and leave on October 31st, 2026.

Randy Cassingham, a passenger on board who runs a cruise blog, wrote that the disembarkation order followed a "cascade of problems".

Under a post entitled "Abandon Ship!", he said its Belfast launch was delayed by four months, while the ship never reached its capacity of 650 residents, peaking at around 350.


He said it was not a "luxury" ship but affordable - until the company started "begging for money".


Villa Vie said in its statement per-cabin monthly fuel expenses had gone from an average of US$1,800 to an estimated US$6,000 to US$8,000 in parts of Asia.


"The company cannot simply pass increases of that scale on to residents, and the resulting shortfall has placed its current operating model under unsustainable financial pressure," it said.

Cassingham accused the company of doing "absolutely nothing to help" stranded passengers.

Villa Vie said it was "working with residents to coordinate disembarkation and identify temporary living arrangements".

"Villa Vie Residences recognises that this is a difficult and disruptive period for residents, crew members, and employees, and is working to support those affected as plans develop," it said.

Passengers walk down from Villa Vie Residences' cruise ship Odyssey, as it is docked at Sihanoukville port in Preah Sihanouk province on Oct 28, 2026.

itinerary

7 countries

14 ports

This captivating 17-night cruise from Civitavecchia to Lisbon visits some true gems of the Mediterranean. First, we sail down one of the world’s most scenic coastlines to pastel-hued, lemon-scented Sorrento. Continuing south, we come to Messina, a pretty Sicilian port known for its salt flats and delicious local beer. We arrive now in Malta for an overnight in Valletta, the cinematic capital built by the Knights of St. John in the 1500s. From here, we dip down to Tunisia, calling at La Goulette for trips to the ruins of the ancient city of Carthage. A relaxing day at sea brings us to the glamor of Monte Carlo, followed by the glamor of Livorno, the gateway to Tuscany, where nearby treasures include the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Now to Ajaccio in Corsica, Napoleon’s birthplace, hopping to Mahón on the island of Menorca with its historic cobbled center, before we reach mainland Spain for two days in Barcelona, plenty of time to absorb the majestic architecture, designer shopping, and world-leading food scene. After a relaxing day at sea, view some of the masterpieces created by local boy, the artist Picasso, in Málaga, before exploring Cádiz, Spain’s 3,000-year-old city founded by the Phoenicians. There's time for a trip to the beach in Portimão before our voyage ends in Portugal's historic capital, Lisbon.

Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy picture

Many passengers use Civitavecchia as a stepping stone to the ancient wonders of Rome, which are a mere hour or so away by train or road. But with its pretty piazzas, strollable seafront promenade, and bustling open-air markets, the historic fishing port is a destination unto itself. Highlights include the impressive 16th-century Forte Michelangelo, built to defend the harbor from pirate raids; the mineral-rich Ficoncella Thermal Baths, beloved by locals and visitors alike; and the beautiful Baroque architecture of Cattedrale di San Francesco and Santa Maria dell'Orazione. Don't leave without sampling the fresh, local seafood, preferably washed down with a glass of crisp Frascati.
