Pastoral letter – Christmas 2011
Christmas 2011
Dear Catholic and Christian faithful,
Christmas brings us more deeply into the mystery of God being born as a defenceless child in a humble stable in Bethlehem. He came into the world as a defenceless child to show us the way of salvation and to take on Himself our sins and iniquities. He paid for our sins on the cross on Golgotha and conquered the devil who held the human race in bondage. His glorious Resurrection proved that His Gospel is the true way and that He is truly the Only Begotten Son of God and the only Saviour of mankind.
Soon after the birth of the Divine Child, King Herod decided to kill Him. St. Joseph, the foster father and guardian, took the Child and His mother by night and fled to Egypt at God’s command. Cruel Herod gave orders to kill all the children in Bethlehem and its vicinity who were two years old and under.
“Beatification” of John Paul II this year officially presented an antigospel and the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of antichrist – in the Catholic Church. The spirit of Assisi denies the unicity of salvation in Jesus Christ and promotes reverence for pagan religions and their demons. This heretical doctrine had already been programmed in the Declaration Nostra aetate at the end of Vatican Council II. John Paul II embodied this entire heretical programme in the Church by a concrete gesture in Assisi in 1986. Over 25 years the spirit of Assisi changed the orthodox teachings of the Church. By the pseudo beatification Benedict XVI canonized these heresies and thus denied the First Commandment of the Decalogue, which forbids the worship of other gods – demons (Ex 20:1-6).
All the prophets called the worship of demons spiritual fornication and an abomination. God’s Word judges the kings of Israel by one criterion only: whether they worshipped the true God or pagan demons. For the worship of pagan demons the entire nation was punished with misery, wars, epidemics, and finally Babylonian captivity.
The sin of idolatry is closely linked with homosexuality. God’s Word says: “They exchanged the truth of God for the lie and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator. For this reason God gave them up to dishonourable passions. Their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men.” (Rom 1:25-27)
The sin of idolatry and sodomy is qualified as an abomination, and they both carried the death penalty. An example of mass death serving as a warning for all humanity was destruction of Sodom by fire. This year God warned all mankind by a variety of disasters – sudden mysterious deaths of masses of animals, earthquakes, volcanoes, floods, tornadoes… These warnings, however, no longer meet with any response from the fallen-away Christians.
Benedict XVI fell under God’s anathema for the betrayal of Christ and proclamation of an antigospel according to Gal 1:8-9: “If anyone preaches any other gospel to you, let him be accursed.” He has brought down this curse on the whole Church. Every priest and every believer is obliged to separate from this anti-Pope who has caused the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of antichrist – to be laid as a new “foundation” of Christianity. The priest who commemorates the name of Benedict in the Liturgy makes it manifest that he is in unity with the spirit of Assisi – with the spirit of antichrist. He thus drives the Holy Spirit out of his soul, for which reason the sacraments administered by him are valid no longer.
Therefore, we would like to bring to the attention of all the Catholic faithful once more that they are obliged personally or in writing to appeal to their priests to separate from the apostate Pope and no longer commemorate his name in the Liturgy.
The contemporary world is a mirror of the crimes perpetrated in the Catholic Church over the last decades and reaching their culminating point this year. The Catholic Church in the U.S. has paid 2 billion to the courts and to the victims of crimes committed by paedophile priests. Instead of repentance, the U.S. hierarchy has issued a so-called scientific paper, according to which sexual child abuse is permissible in the case of children aged 10 and over. This is a shock even to the world which is fighting against morality. On 12 September 2011, the victims of paedophilia brought a legal action against Pope Benedict XVI in the International Court of Justice in The Hague for crimes against humanity. On 30 October 2011, after the euphoria of Assisi, the victims of paedophilia held a silent protest against ex-Pope Benedict at the gates of the Vatican. They demanded again that he should be tried for crimes against humanity.
The spirit of religious pharisaism and demoralisation has penetrated the entire formerly Christian territories. Priority in Christian Europe is not given to promotion of just laws and moral values but of perverse homosexuality. It is promoted in education and culture and leads to violent demoralisation of defenceless children. The gender-gay schizophrenic ideology is imposing a perverse way of thinking even on the children in kindergartens, hammering into their heads that a boy is not a boy and a girl is not a girl and that they must no longer call their parents “mummy” and “daddy”. Children in schools receive sexual “education”. It systematically promotes the perversion of homosexuality through a variety of trainings and courses. The parents who try to protect their children against it are punished for homophobia. Their children are taken away from them and sold primarily to homosexuals or paedophiles within the system of so-called international adoption.
A Spanish judge who just tried to delay the adoption of a child by two lesbians was punished by a fine of ? 104,000. A similar penalty was imposed on a Spanish television channel which broadcasted a one-minute clip for the protection of the family and children. It also received a warning – if it happens again, the TV channel will be stopped from broadcasting. This is clear evidence to a homodictatorship over the majority of peaceful population. This is the fruit of the curse which has fallen on the apostatical Church hierarchy for covering up paedophilia, proclaiming heresies which deny the essence of Christianity, and promoting reverence for pagan demons.
Concentration of a demonic attack on children – the spirit of Herod – is nowadays perceptible in every stage of their life, from the very moment of conception. Trained demagogues with medical degrees intimidate the expectant mothers into consenting to an abortion on the false grounds of their child having Down’s syndrome or absent cranial bone, and similar nonsense. The psychological pressure is so strong that hardly any mother is able to resist and thus save her child. And if she does save it, there is now compulsory vaccination immediately after birth. In fact, with the view of reduction of humanity this vaccination weakens the immune system, causes infertility or has other negative consequences – some children lost their hearing or sight, and some even died. If the children survive, there is systematic psychological manipulation associated with demoralisation and demonization in store for them in kindergartens. This is followed by sexual antieducation in schools from the very first year. Whatever attempt at sound education on the part of the parents or teachers is qualified as violence or violation of the rights of the child. The so-called right to information means that children can watch all morally degrading TV programmes which corrupt their mind and give them specific instructions for crime. So-called school psychologists integrated into the education system wring information out of children about their parents with the purpose of fabricating guilt and removing the children from their loving parents within the so-called juvenile justice system. Consequently, the children are given preferentially to homosexuals and paedophiles for international adoption for money. And then it is no longer possible to obtain justice. It is the most cunning and cruellest system in human history, and everything is hypocritically presented as the “rights of children”, “women’s rights” and the fight against family “violence”. These are crimes against humanity, which are committed by the United Nations and other world organizations that manipulate humanity for the purpose of so-called reduction in world population from 7 billion to one. But it may be the case that the process of genocide will no longer be stopped and will result in annihilation of the human race. Crimes committed against children, against their psyche, are associated with trauma and tyranny, and are worse than physical torture. Previously, when the mother died and children became orphans, the people in their surroundings considered it the greatest tragedy and felt sympathy for the motherless children. But those children still had their father, grandmother or aunt and stayed in the family home. The present machinery that produces artificial orphans by gender ideology and juvenile justice is worse than Nazi camps with gas chambers and worse than Stalinist gulags. It is cruel tyranny over children who are homesick, missing their father, mother, the family home… They are forcibly kept in children’s homes where they easily become morally depraved. Statistics show that most of these children end up as criminals.
At Christmas we fix our eyes upon the Divine Child. Every child is a reflection of innocence and purity. The Vatican betrayed Christ and the Gospel. The political forces adopted a programme of demoralisation and demonization of the young generation and of reduction – genocide of humanity. At this historic moment, on the occasion of Christmas, the Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate calls upon all Christians of the world. By authority of the apostolic and prophetic office, in the name of the Triune God:
1) We appeal to ex-Pope Benedict XVI to resign from office which he now holds unlawfully. We appeal to him to organize an extraordinary election of an orthodox Pope. The new Pope must immediately start a true reform of the Catholic Church.
2) We call upon all Catholic priests this Christmas no longer to commemorate the name of ex-Pope Benedict in the Divine Liturgy. The priest who will continue to commemorate his name will celebrate the Liturgy and administer the sacraments invalidly.
3) We call upon all Catholic Christians this Christmas to appeal to their priests in person or in writing to stop commemorating the name of the ex-Pope in the Liturgy. If the priest does not do so, these believers must no longer attend the Liturgies celebrated by him in the spirit of Assisi, for it brings down a curse upon them and their families.
4) We oblige all Christians and not just Catholics before God to make every effort to stop the deadly system of destruction of children and thus of all future generations.
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, God came to us as a defenceless child and was born in Bethlehem. At this Christmas time He is knocking on Your heart and waiting for You to open to Him and to receive Him. “As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God.” (Jn 1:12) Receive Jesus through sincere repentance, separate from the spirit of heresies and the spirit of antichrist. Stand in defence of God’s laws and protect Jesus in defenceless children even at the price of martyrdom. On the Day of Judgment You shall hear God’s words: “Inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.” (Mt 25:40)
Christ is born!
Bestowing a blessing on You,
on behalf of the Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate
