The spirit of pharisaism is a spirit which vegetates in the Church in a special way. One must take a whip and drive it out of the temple of God like the money-changers. Religious Pharisees hate the truth. They are full of rebellion and pride. They neither enter the kingdom of God themselves, nor do they allow others to enter it, as Jesus said in the Gospel. One must defy this spirit: “If you want to go to hell, please, go! But we want to be saved! And to be saved we need a living faith in Jesus. He who does not believe will be condemned. This is His Word, not ours!”

Pharisees use psychological pressure. They intimidate you, threaten you with punishments and force you into so-called repentance – but why? Because you believe in Christ!

1) Perfect contrition (5 minutes)

(position – kneeling)

a) One person says: “I am self-willed.” “A self-willed person does not seek the will of God in crucial situations, does not rely on God and breaks the laws of God.” Think of a particular case of your self-will and repeat quietly: “I am self-willed, I am self-willed…” (1 minute)

b) One says: “Hedonism may be physical – indulgence in eating, drinking, impure feelings, alcohol, drug abuse. Mental hedonism – addiction to television, rock music, internet, human praise…” Think of at least one concrete manifestation of your hedonism and repeat quietly: “I am a hedonist, I am a hedonist…” (1 minute)

c) One says: Criticism: “Think of a particular situation when you rebelled against God or criticized your neighbours in thoughts or by words, when you regarded yourself higher than all.” Repeat quietly: “I am a critic…” (1 minute)

“You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you

that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain,

that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.”

“You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit,

and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.”

Think to yourself for a moment that God chose you: “I did not choose You, my God and Saviour, but You chose me before the foundation of the world…” (cf. Eph 1:4)

Jesus wants me to bear fruit – the fruit of works done according to the will of God and in faith. This fruit should remain forever!

Jesus assures us again that the Father will give us whatever we ask in His name. This holy name of God is “Yehoshua” (Lord is my salvation).

“This is My commandment, that you love one another, as I have loved you.

Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life /soul/ for his friends.”

Jesus emphasizes this commandment twice on the evening before His death (see Jn 13:34-35). He says: “A new commandment I give to you”, and He adds: “By this shall all men know that you are My disciples, if you have love one to another.” The Greek original of the Gospel uses the term “agape” for “love”. It is the love of God which is “shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who is given to us” (Rom 5:5). This is the love by which Jesus has loved us. Jesus puts it more precisely what kind of love He means: “that you love one another, as I have loved you”. How has Jesus loved us? Being God, He became man; He humbled Himself, assumed human weakness, yet without sin. He was innocent and yet sentenced to death, even death on a cross. He suffered the pains of scourging, crowning with thorns, the way of the cross; He suffered dying amid mockery and in abandonment, and finally painful death. He paid the price for your sin.

Death on behalf of men can be well illustrated by an example from the Auschwitz concentration camp. It happened that one prisoner ran away. Therefore all prisoners were told to stand in a row and every tenth of them was sentenced to death. One of the prisoners was a priest Maximilian.

“This is My commandment, that you love one another

as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this,

than to lay down one’s life for his friends.”

The First Commandment reads: “I am the Lord your God … you shall have no other gods before Me.” (Deut 5:6-10). The transgression of the commandment carries punishment up to the third and fourth generation, while its observance brings a great blessing.

The First Commandment is the foundation for the other Commandments: respect for parents; prohibition of killing, fornication, theft… The First Commandment requires worship of the One God. A heresy which undermines the faith in the mystery of the Triune God is a sin. Today it concerns heresies of historical-critical theology – Neomodernism – which deny the Divinity of Christ, His redemptive sacrifice on the cross and His resurrection. These heresies also deny all that is supernatural as well as the very inspiration of Holy Scripture. The spirit of lies began to dominate in all seminaries and almost among all theologians through pride, which resulted in mass apostasy from the biblical faith, which had been preached for nearly 2,000 years. It was a historic turning point after the Second Vatican Council.

These days we commemorate the Nativity of Christ – God became a defenceless Child to save us from eternal death. He accomplished His sacrifice on the cross for you as well.

Dear women and mothers, God turns to you and wants you to mobilize in this spiritual battle for the salvation of your nation from moral, spiritual and physical autogenocide. This autogenocide is pursued by the amoral West which promotes gender homosexuality, anti-Decalogue, mass stealing of children, their moral and psychological devastation in so-called professional business families, which children are shunted between. In the West, these families are made up especially of homosexuals and paedophiles. It concerns the crimes of neofascism connected with the mass use of destructive narcotics and the killing of old people by euthanasia (the Netherlands, Belgium). It is a plan of a holocaust of mankind, programmed by the Masons of the Club of Rome, reduction to a so-called golden billion (which means extermination of 5-6 billion people). Satanic globalization, which destroys all moral values and Christianity at the root, fights even for Ukraine.

Reverend hierarchs,

to begin with, I would like to greet You, especially those whom I have known since the time in the Litomerice seminary in 1966-1971. The upcoming year 2015 is a jubilee year in respect of the tragic event of burning at a stake of the priest John Huss.

At the beginning, let me point out the apostolic succession and anathema in brief: In 1995, U.S. citizen Husar unlawfully usurped power in the Greek Catholic Church in Ukraine (see Memorandum of three Metropolitans) and soon began to proclaim heresies publicly. For this reason, I and three other brothers of the Order of St Basil the Great received Episcopal consecration. The consecration was made public after a certain period, on 3 March 2008, and it was announced to Pope Benedict XVI. By his silence he, in fact, took account of our Episcopal consecrations!

Open letter to President of the Czech Republic M. Zeman and ex-President V. Klaus

Dear representatives of the Czech nation!

First of all, let me thank You on my behalf and on behalf of all honest Czechs at home and abroad for Your courage to resist the pressure of lies and to stand in defence of the truth. I have to tell You that You are held in high regard among honest Russians as well as Ukrainians who are not under the “narcotic” influence of mediocracy.

Mass media in the hands of liars are a means of brainwashing. That suits the purposes of neofascist globalizers who pursue destruction of the nation, family and individuals whom they want to turn into biorobots, alcoholics, drug addicts and sexual perverts dying an early death – euthanasia.
