Letter to Patriarchs and Bishops of the Orthodox Churches

To Patriarchs and Bishops of the Orthodox Churches
Dear Patriarchs,
Dear Bishops,
in these hard times You have assumed the office of shepherds and You bear full responsibility for the flock entrusted to You. We live in times when a new antichristian thought is being formed, which undermines God’s laws in the consciousness of people and presents evil as good (homosexuality, paedophilia, euthanasia…).
The blame for the moral decay of Western Europe falls largely on Catholic theologians and hierarchs who have a spirit of apostasy.
On 1 May 2011 by the beatification of John Paul II, this spirit of apostasy was adopted as the official position of the Catholic Church. Therefore on the same day Benedict XVI fell under God’s anathema. The Catholic Church has found herself in a sedes vacantis state. This apostatical gesture brought down a curse upon the whole Catholic Church. God has taken away the perpetual sacrifice – liturgy – from those Catholic priests and bishops who are in unity with ex-Pope Benedict and commemorate his name in the Liturgy.
On 27 October 2011 in Assisi and the day before and after in the Vatican the apostatical performance of 1986 is to be repeated, which is a sign of apostasy of the Catholic Church before the whole world. If any of the Orthodox patriarchs, bishops or priests attends this event, he will automatically fall under God’s anathema, that means excommunication from the Mystical Body of Christ, and if he will not repent and will die in this state, he will be eternally condemned.
We beseech You and appeal to You not to attend this apostatical event, not to support it in any way, but on the contrary, to dissociate Yourselves definitely from it.
The rhetoric about peace prayers is a mere guise to deceive the Christian masses.
If You participate in the Assisi meeting with Buddhists, Hindus and animists (sorcerers), You will bring down God’s anathema both on Yourselves and on the Orthodox Church according to Gal 1:8-9. Our Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate will be forced to announce with pain Your excommunication from the Mystical Body of Christ – the Church – before the whole Christian world.
Be brave. Be true apostles of Jesus Christ.
Praying for You,
+ Elijah
Patriarch of the Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate
+ Methodius OSBMr + Timothy OSBMr
Secretary bishops
