God’s anathema upon the Church of Sweden (9.7.2011)

Lviv, Ukraine, 9 July 2011

Representatives and believers

of the Church of Sweden

On 8^th November 2009, for the first time in history, a woman – an open lesbian living in a sinful union with another lesbian – was “consecrated a bishop”. In October 2009, representatives of the Church of Sweden decided on allowing gay marriages in the church. By this decision of theirs they rejected the laws of God and the authority of God the Creator and Supreme Lawgiver. They no longer call evil evil, a sin a sin and an abomination an abomination. They exchanged the truth for a lie and turned the Church of God into an assembly of Satan (Rev 2:9). An official report says: “As from November 2009, believing homosexuals in Sweden can promise faithfulness to each other in the church. Thus decided representatives of the Church of Sweden.”

What faithfulness can be promised by two perverted people in the church who deny God’s commandments and God’s laws? What does the term “faithfulness” mean here? It means commitment to stubborn persistence in sin. Preaching of antirepentance is a sign of the Church of Satan which conforms to its antibible and has its false prophets (theo-logians, or rather satan-logians). This anti-Church, which records 75% of the population of Sweden, is responsible even for the introduction of state homo-laws.

It also promotes the so-called right of two morally degenerate people to adopt children. Statistics show that many homosexuals are paedophiles too. The Swedish anti-Church commits a crime against humanity on defenceless children whom it demoralizes and demonizes. This is another sign of Satanism and of the spirit of antichrist.

On 17^th November 2009, the Synod of Bishops of the Ukrainian orthodox Greek-Catholic Church appealed to the Lutheran Church of Sweden for repentance by making seven concrete requirements (http://uogcc.org/en/letters/article/?article=903). Unfortunately, the Church leaders refused to repent, to return to the Biblical and saving faith and to respect God’s commandments which man is not allowed to change.

The Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate, by authority of the apostolic and prophetic office before God and before the Mystical Body of Christ, which is the true Church of Christ, hereby declares before all Christians of the world (Mt 18:18): The anti-Church of Sweden is no longer the Church of Christ but spiritual Babylon and the harlot of antichrist (Rev 17:1-6). We hereby call upon every member of this Church to be converted, to repent and to go out from that spiritual Babylon (Isa 52:11). The spirit of antichrist cast the Spirit of God out of this Church. All who want to be saved must separate from this anti-Church because it leads the deceived souls to eternal damnation in hell. This anti-Church has become a synagogue of Satan (see Rev 3:9; Rev 2:20-24) and preaches a different gospel. “Even if an angel from heaven should preach any other gospel to you, let him be accursed.” (Gal 1:8-9) By reason of apostasy from the Gospel of God, God has cast this curse upon the anti-Church of Sweden.
