Who is and who is not a Christian in USA

Lvov (Ukraine), July 7, 2011

To U.S. President and Congress

The Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate hereby announces to the U.S. President and Congress:

A) By reason of official approval of homosexuality the following Churches have excluded themselves from the Christian Churches:

– Presbyterian Church (USA)

– United Church of Christ

– Evangelical Lutheran Church in America

– Episcopal Church of the USA

– The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)

– The Alliance of Baptists

Homosexuality is a sin and abomination. These Churches no longer call a sin a sin and an abomination an abomination. Breaking God’s laws and denying the authority of God, they have excluded themselves from the Church of Christ and fallen under God’s curse acc. Gal 1:8-9. They are no Christians any more, although they deceive the public that they are. Casting aside the sixth and ninth Commandments of the Decalogue by so-called tolerance of the rights of sexual minorities, they also cast aside the sin of marital infidelity as well as all other sins like fornication, adultery or sexual perversion. Even pedophilia, which is closely connected with homosexuality, is no longer regarded by them as a sin. Consequently, one need no longer observe the fifth Commandment “You shall not kill!” either. The killing of a child in the mother’s womb is called to be a right of a woman and a mere surgical procedure. Suicide under the term ‘euthanasia’, which is a way to hell, is likewise presented as a human right. In essence, they have cast aside all sins and hence rejected all God’s Commandments and the unicity of salvation in Jesus Christ. Without this foundation whole Christianity falls.

Therefore every true Christian who wants to be saved must come out of the spiritual Babylon of the apostatical Churches.

B) The official Catholic Church is no Catholic Church any more

Historical-critical theology (HCT) denies inspiration of the Scripture, Divinity of Christ, His redemptive death for our sins as well as His Resurrection. The spirit of Assisi puts the unicity of salvation in Jesus Christ on an equal footing with the worship of pagan demons, which is ‘haeresis maxima’. All U.S. Bishops were appealed to renounce these two heresies denying the essence of Christianity and to confess the true faith. On May 23, 2010, all the bishops fell under God’s anathema by reason of their betrayal of faith.

On May 1, 2011, when Benedict XVI beatified the apostate John Paul II, he elevated the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of antichrist – to the official doctrine of the Church. Consequently, both these Popes are excommunicated from the Church in that this doctrine of theirs is contrary to the Gospel and to the 2000-year Christian Tradition. The Catholic Church is now in a sedes vacantis state as to papacy and the whole Church hierarchy is under God’s curse. The priests who mention the name of Pope Benedict in the Liturgy manifest their unity with the heretical spirit of HCT and with the spirit of Assisi, which is the spirit of antichrist. These priests and bishops now celebrate Divine Liturgy and administer the sacraments invalidly. The fruit of gradual apostasy is homosexuality and pedophilia among the clergy, which cost the Catholic Church in USA about 2 billion dollars spent on legal proceedings. Up to this day the hierarchy has concealed pedophile crimes committed by the clergy. It is only a matter of time until the fallen-away Catholic hierarchy legalizes homosexuality (e.g. ex-Card. Husar, ex-Card. Sch?nborn, ex-Bishop Lopez /Mexico/). The greatest evil is that the bishops wrote no pastoral letter in good time in which they would exhort the Catholic believers to repent and in which they would call a sin a sin and the abomination of homosexuality an abomination. An example is a Cardinal of New York who gave consent to homosexuality by his silence. Consequently, a Catholic Governor of the State of New York legalized it. This is the fruit of fallen-away Catholicism. The U.S. Bishops’ Conference, in actual fact, legalized pedophilia by publishing a so-called study which states that sexual abuse of children over the age of 10 is not regarded as pedophilia or a sin.

This Church, too, has become a harlot of antichrist and a Babylon. Every genuine Catholic who desires to be saved must separate and come out of this spiritual Babylon, otherwise he will end up in hell owing to the false faith presented by the apostatical Catholic hierarchy.

The apostatical Churches bring down a curse on USA and are the cause of tornadoes, floods and other disastrous phenomena over the past decades. They are also responsible for the prepared genocide of humanity since they are no longer the voice of conscience for political and governmental structures.

C) Society of Jehovah’s Witnesses with its center in Brooklyn as well as the Mormon Church in the State of Utah are no Christians.

Why? Even though they appeal to the Holy Scripture and speak about Jesus Christ, they deny the essence of Christianity – the unicity of salvation and forgiveness of sins which is in Jesus Christ! They both adhere to a number of sound moral principles and observe God’s laws. However, unless one is converted and follows the way of repentance and imitation of Christ, this alone will not assure salvation. One has to say it clearly and reckon with it. Those who sincerely desire to obtain eternal life in God’s glory and be saved from eternal damnation in hell must separate even from these religious societies and from the spirit that is behind them up to this day. Salvation is in Jesus Christ alone and only those can be saved who confess their sins and receive Jesus as their personal Savior and Lord. We pray that both these societies may be converted and become Christ’s witnesses – martyres – in the power of the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8). We pray for the fallen-away Catholic Church as well as for all fallen-away Churches in USA. We pray that sincere Christians may come out of the spiritual Babylon and be saved.
