Part one: Diagnosis and the first step

The Vatican started the process of autogenocide of the Church as early as the beginning of the 20^th century. Modernism based on atheistic philosophy has penetrated into many seminaries under the guise of a scholarly exegesis of the Bible, and its adherents occupied the highest posts in the Church.

With the publication of a powerful encyclical Pascendi Dominici Gregis (1907), Pope St Pius X gave the Church a rescue remedy for the deadly infection. A large percentage of professors and students of theology were dismissed. World Wars I and II followed. In 1943, Pope Pius XII, including a vague statement in his encyclical, opened the door to a so-called scholarly research of the Bible. Liberal spirits of neo-Modernism abused his authority and began to take secret measures towards self-destruction of the Church.

“Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves; and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light. And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him. …behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and suddenly a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to Him!’” (Mt 17:1-5)

Three disciples, Peter, James and John, were witnesses of Jesus’ transfiguration on Mount Tabor in Galilee. The light of Jesus’ Divinity shone on them. It was a great experience for them. At the close of chapter 16, Jesus says: “Amen, I say to you, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.” (Mt 16:28) On Mount Tabor, they saw a flash of Jesus’ glory.

You think to yourself: If I had a vision, my faith would deepen. But we can see what an impact that vision had on the apostles. After a few days these three disciples were on the Mount of Olives in the Garden of Gethsemane where Jesus prayed: “O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will.” (Mt 26:39)

To the people of Greece

The head of the Greek Orthodox Church, Archbishop Hieronymus II, in a critical moment in the period before the referendum, when he was obliged to say a clear word against the dictatorship of homosexuality associated with child stealing by the juvenile justice system, betrayed the laws of God, Christ and the nation. Instead of pointing to the root of the curse brought down by homosexual laws and appealing to the nation to repent in earnest and to separate from the EU system of homodictatorship, he deceived the nation. He called the people to remain in this system of homodictatorship and thus enabled this system to continue its destruction of human souls. His phrases about solving the economic crisis are deceitful. He was obliged to defend God’s laws, which ultimately also bring economic well-being, and to condemn homosexuality, the consequence of which is among other things the economic crisis too. By his hypocritical statement and gesture he brought down upon himself God’s curse – anathema.

To priests of the Czech Republic

Dear brothers in the priesthood,

on 6 July 2015, the whole Czech nation will commemorate the 600^th anniversary of the martyrdom of Master John Huss.

The Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate (BCP) hereby declares before the whole Catholic Church and Czech nation: The Czech priest John Huss was no heretic but he died a martyr for truth and the law of God. It is evident from his own writings, especially from his letters written several days before his death. Huss’ writings contain no heresies. If someone means to ascribe heretical intentions to his writings, let him know that John Huss himself warns against it. In his letter to Pope John XXIII dated 1 September 1411, he writes: “If they have given or are giving information that I taught the people that in the Sacrament of the Altar the material substance of the bread remains, it is a falsehood. It is a falsehood that I have said that when the Host is elevated it is then the Body of Christ, but when it is laid down it is not. It is a falsehood that a priest in mortal sin cannot consecrate.”

31 May 2015

With the approach of the 600^th anniversary of the martyrdom of John Huss, the Byzantine Catholic (Universal) Patriarchate hereby declares the Bohemian priest John Huss a martyr of Christ.

600 years ago, on 6 July 1415, he was unjustly and dishonestly burnt at the stake in Constance. John Huss was and is a martyr for truth and moral values.

JUSTIFICATION AND AN EXAMPLE TO FOLLOW:

18 May 2015

Dear Bishops of Hungary!

You live in a historic time when we are witnesses to gradual autogenocide of the nations under the influence of the ideology of consumerism which is associated with immorality and perversion. This ideology prioritizes homosexualism, paedophilia, zoophilia, narcotics, euthanasia even for children and healthy people, stealing of human organs. This age is ruthlessly anti-Christian and anti-Catholic. The individual’s identity is eroded and a kind of biorobots are formed by means of gender ideology. This false ideology removes the God-given difference between man and woman and produces de facto mentally disturbed individuals who become a plaything of a variety of not only unclean but even sadistic demons. These dubious characters are then purposefully promoted to key positions in order to terrorize normal people by establishing antilaws and consequently by sanctions and imprisonments. The priority in the EU currently is not just legalization but directly privileging of homosexualism and sexual perversions associated with the stealing of children from their loving parents, and that not from dysfunctional families but from good families. An artificial pretext for stealing of children is so-called “domestic violence” or “stifling love”, which are terms used by this system to refer to sound Christian and moral upbringing.

30 March 2015

As Christians, we are to enter into the mystery of Christ’s death all the year round, but especially we should realize this truth on Good Friday (see 2Cor 4:10-11). Every Sunday, but especially on Easter Sunday, we should deeply realize the mystery of baptism which unites us with the risen Christ. “As many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.” (Gal 3:27) Through baptism we have been grafted into these mysteries of our salvation. We create inner unity with Christ like the branch with the vine (cf. Jn 15:1-6). These truths must be revived through repentance, otherwise they are ineffective. True repentance is to call the truth the truth and a lie a lie, a heresy a heresy and a sin a sin, both in relation to oneself and to others, even if they hold office in the Church. We have to separate from the heresy of syncretism and from the spirit of antichrist.

At Christmas, we commemorate the coming of our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ into this world as a defenceless child. “God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.” (Jn 3:16) God gave us the most precious Gift – His Only Begotten Son. Jesus died for our sake. He, the Son of God, rose from the dead, that we should not perish but have eternal life. But there is one condition: saving faith. Only he who believes in Him and receives Him by this personal faith has eternal life and is a child of God.

We celebrate the feast of the Presentation of the Virgin Mary. The Word of God says: “Blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it.” Jesus said the same words at the end of the Sermon on the Mount which begins with the Beatitudes and ends with the parable of two men who built a house. One man built a house on the sand and the other on the rock. Those who hear the word of God but do not keep it build on the sand. Those who hear the word and put it into practice build on the rock. This reveals the essence of the way of our salvation.

Unfortunately, modern theological studies lead just to theorizing and rationalism. This all is a house on the sand – philosophizing instead of repentance, self-denial and the following of Christ.

(celebrated in Ukraine on Oct. 14)

In relation to this feast, Jesus says in the Gospel: “Blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it.” (Lk 11:28) The first thing is to hear the word of God and the second thing is to keep it. How many obstacles there are in us and around us which prevent us from hearing the word of God, thinking about it and keeping it so that it may become incarnate in us. This word should become incarnate in us just like in the Blessed Virgin – in her the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. And how did it happen? She was prepared. She lived by faith, wholly devoted to God. When the angel came to her, she said: “Behold, the bondslave of the Lord. Let it be to me according to your word.” These were not mere words, this was her life. And what did it involve? In that situation she risked her life. Any woman in Israel who was pregnant without being married was stoned to death. However, Mary knew Isaiah’s prophecy: “The virgin shall conceive and bear a Son.” She asked: “How can this be?” The angel said to her: “The Holy Spirit will do it.”

We heard in the Gospel that Jesus cried out: “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” Jesus was speaking about the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive. Notice the words: “…whom those believing in Him would receive.” So the condition for the receiving of the Holy Spirit is to believe in Jesus.

“He who believes in Me, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.”

God’s Word uses the word believe twice: he who believes and those believing. So it confirms doubly that the condition for us to receive the Holy Spirit is to believe in Jesus: “He who believes in Me…”. The condition is to believe in Him and in His Word given to us.

Dear faithful!

We are coming to the close of the Lenten period which culminates on Good Friday when we commemorate the death of Christ on the cross. Jesus died on Calvary for us all, that means, for each of us individually. We form a community, we form the Ukrainian nation. The crucifixion of Christ was preceded by the betrayal of Judas. The betrayal was followed by unjust trial both before the Church and state. The plotter was the then religious hierarchy who opposed God and God’s word and delivered the Son of God to be crucified and disgraced. After being sentenced to death, Jesus suffered cruel scourging and painful and humiliating crowning with thorns. This was followed by the way of the cross during which Jesus fell to the ground several times until He reached the place of execution. When He had come to Golgotha, His hands and feet were nailed to the cross and the cross was erected. Three hours of extreme suffering, physical, mental and spiritual. Jesus suffers and dies. His suffering is associated with the last seven words from the cross.

Every year at the end of the Great Lent we commemorate the death and resurrection of Christ. The Lenten period is the time of preparation when we need to stop and devote more time to God and our soul. Jesus said about the liberation of man from the evil spirit: “This kind of demon does not go out except by prayer and fasting.” (Mt 17)

Fasting can be physical or spiritual.

Spiritual fasting: We should abstain from useless and harmful information. It requires discipline of vision and thought. Our thoughts are influenced by the mass media, billboards, people we talk to who think only of earthly and vain things and do not think or speak about the most important things, such as death, God’s judgment and eternity.

There is not only a “negative” aspect of fasting – that you abstain from something, but also a “positive” one – that you receive information leading to the recovery of intellectual and spiritual life.

Ukraine, 2 March 2014

To Bishops, priests, religious and the faithful

Dear Roman Catholics!

The Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate from Ukraine, which defends the orthodox Catholic teaching and Tradition of the Church, turns to You at the beginning of Lent.

Here in Ukraine there is a danger of civil war, and even a danger of global conflict. We have to point out that great responsibility for this situation lies with the hierarchy of the Catholic Church, namely Cardinal Husar and his successor, Msgr. Shevchuk. They are responsible for the so-called Euromaidan in Kiev. They deceived Greek Catholic believers. Parish priests permanently organized at least one bus from each parish to the Maidan in Kiev. The deceived Catholics were used as a human shield for the hired extremists from abroad who, according to the U.S. scenario of revolutionary technologies, pursued the overthrow of the legitimate government. In consequence they would promote homosexual ideology and the stealing of children, both being a priority of the U.S. foreign policy and also a priority of the EU.

Lvov (Ukraine), 6 February 2014

On 4 February 2014, the Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate and the Bishops’ Synod of the UO GCC called for prayer mobilization. Today they call for forgiveness.

In the past, the Ukrainian people suffered from Poles, Austrians, Russians and Germans. In the 20^th century, they were struck by famine and went through two world wars.

In the 1990s, Ukraine achieved independence. Patriotism founded on hatred and unforgivingness was false. Galicians use a derisive nickname “Moskali” or “Muscovites” for eastern Ukrainians and eastern Ukrainians use “Banderivtsi” or “fascist bandits” for Galicians.
