Dear Sir,

dear Members of the European Parliament!

Sisters of the Monastery of St Prophet Elijah in Lvov hereby publicly warn EU leaders and the European public about gross violations of human rights in Ukraine. Unless and until the issue of blatant religious discrimination is settled, it is not possible to deal with the issue of Ukraine’s integration into the EU.

Our contemplative monastery was founded in 1925. At the time of Communism, our Sisters lived in the catacombs.

In 2008 our monastery separated from the UGCC (Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church) structure headed by Cardinal Husar and on 1 May 2011 from the Vatican. The response to this was that the UGCC hierarchy did not respect our right to freedom of conscience but began to discriminate against our Sisters through the mediation of state authorities.

Delegation of the European Union to Ukraine

Dear EU representatives,

by means of psychological pressure and bribery You are promoting autogenocide of Ukraine in the moral, spiritual and physical sphere. The height of deceit is that after we dig our own grave under Your leadership, You want us to jump inside.

Let us point out that the phrase “the joining of Europe” is a fraud. There is a difference between Europe and the European Union. Europe was built on Christian foundations. The European Union destroys all Christian principles and introduces suicidal satanism. The power behind this ideology is American bankers and the Illuminati dedicated to Satan. Gender schizophrenia, demoralization of children and stealing of children from their loving parents are the cruellest crimes against humanity which destroy the human mind. And today this is called “European standards”!

Mr. President,

on October 14, 2013, the Ukrainian citizens voice their protest against the U.S. genocidal policy carried out in Ukraine. The people of Ukraine categorically protest against shale gas extraction which is, in fact, a chemical weapon. Thousands of tons of toxic chemicals will poison natural water and soil and pollute the air. The consequences are similar to those after the Chernobyl disaster. Moreover, the U.S. company “Chevron” impudently demands the right to despoil our country of all natural resources found in the process of extraction of shale gas. Shale gas extraction, imposed on us by America, means an ecological death for Ukraine.

“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.”

On 4 September 2013, a superior of a Buddhist Shaolin monastery from China visited the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour in Moscow at the invitation of Kirill, the Head of the Russian Orhtodox Church (ROC).

The Head of the ROC called on the youth “to get acquainted with the practice of ascetic self-discipline of the Shaolin monks”.

His speech about the “power of the spirit” was open promotion of pagan spirituality.

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)
