It has been published that President of the Consumers Protection Organization as an Orthodox Christian demands that Patriarch Kirill should be suspended and excommunicated by reason of dogmatic and canonical errors. His charge against Kirill includes six points, each supported by citations from the Eastern Canon Law.

The fact is that Kirill has brought down God’s curse – anathema – on himself and excluded himself from the Mystical Body of Christ – the Church. He now holds his office in the visible Church structure unlawfully. The grace of the Holy Spirit has been removed from him above all by reason of his apostatical gesture in Astana on 30 May 2012. He trespassed not only against the canon law but also against the essential truths of the Gospel and committed a heresy and an act of syncretism with paganism. By his gesture in Astana, he practically placed the worship of the one God on the same level as the worship of demons. This is the supreme heresy. Owing to his gesture in Astana and silence on the invasion of homosexuality and child stealing, he was placed under anathema acc. Gal 1:8-9. “If anyone, even an angel from heaven, should preach any other gospel to you, let him be accursed.” From the moment of declaration of anathema, he holds his office unlawfully not only before God but also before the Orthodox Church.

“Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies.”

Rom 8:33: “Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies.”

(29 Sept-13 Oct 2013)

Rom 8:34: “Who will condemn? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.”

(13 Oct-27 Oct 2013)

The question is who will accuse God’s elect. We can be accused by demons, by people, by our conscience or by God. Everyone who commits an offence is liable to a just punishment. “The wages of sin is death.” (Rom 6:23) “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Rom 3:23) But it is God who justifies.

Who is Tomáš Halík and what is his fruit? He himself says that he is a Christian and a Buddhist at the same time. He organized the first visit of the Dalai Lama to the Czech Republic immediately after the fall of Communism. Havel and the Dalai Lama meditated together for eight hours in Hluboka Castle. Halík deceived Cardinal Tomášek into receiving a shawl from the Dalai Lama and thus opened the Czech Church to spiritual syncretism. A series of the Dalai Lama’s visits to the Czech Republic followed, initiated by Halík. Directly in the Church of the Most Holy Saviour Halík alternated with the Dalai Lama at the pulpit and set a practical example of apostasy to the Czech Catholics.

Halík organizes Buddhist meditation in the crypt of his Church right after the evening Mass. Nonetheless, Halík was appointed president for Catholic university youth in the country. He triggered an explosion of Buddhist “circles” among the university youth. Thanks to Tomáš Halík, a gigantic Buddhist centre, a former factory, is under construction in Prague.

Rom 8:31: “If God is for us…” – the consequence is: “…who can be against us?”

I can personally realize this truth if I use “me” instead of “us”.

What to do if I want God to be “for me” and not against me? I need to repent. It means to come out of darkness into the light. Christ is the Light. “If we walk in the light as He is in the light, the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from all sin.” (1Jn 1:7)

Through Christ the way is open for us to the Heavenly Father. However, this way is not open for liberal Christians who question Jesus’ redemptive death on the cross and speak misleadingly about the Christ of history and the Christ of faith.

The word of prophecy spoken to Ezekiel in the Babylonian captivity is relevant to the current situation in Ukraine: “And I will sanctify My great name, which has been profaned.” (36:23) “Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you. … I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them. …you shall be My people, and I will be your God. … Then you will remember your evil ways and your deeds that were not good; and you will loathe yourselves in your own sight, for your iniquities and your abominations. … Then the nations which are left all around you shall know that I, the Lord, have rebuilt the ruined places and planted what was desolate. I, the Lord, have spoken it, and I will do it.” (v. 25-36)

New York Times

Washington Post

Obama’s maneuver to bomb Syria, which posed a threat of global war, was stopped at the last minute. Russian research showed that chemical weapons had been used by rebel forces supported by the U.S.

Under the circumstances, instead of taking a truly self-critical attitude, Obama in high dudgeon attacked Russian President at the G20 summit. Contrary to the truth and etiquette, he offensively called him a jackass.

But who’s really a jackass? He who bans homosexuality as a threat to the individual, family and nation or he who promotes it as a foreign policy priority? And the next question to be asked: Who is a mass murderer and who is a peacemaker? The peacemaker averted the disaster and the mass murderer invited it.

“He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all,

how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?”

To Bishops of the Orthodox Church of Moldova

Your Excellencies,

the Prime Minister of Moldova and his supporters betrayed God and the people of Moldova. He pushed through amoral homosexual laws. As true shepherds, You, Bishops of Moldova, made a brave stand against that crime. Moldova was visited by the apostate Kirill who now holds the office of Patriarch invalidly. He met with the traitorous Prime Minister. Instead of condemning the crime and supporting the Orthodox faith, You, the Bishops, and the people, he hypocritically declared that he did not interfere in politics. In fact, his gesture revealed his unity of spirit with the treacherous Prime Minister and hence approval of his programme of destruction of both Christianity and the nation.

Kirill made a similar gesture in Astana where he manifested his unity with the spirit of Antichrist and thus betrayed Christ and the Church. By reason of that he fell under God’s curse – anathema – acc. Gal 1:8-9.

In a situation when You as Bishops fight for the nation, the apostate Kirill stabs You in the back!
