The Church of Ephesus: Praise and Rebuke

“To the angel of the Church in Ephesus write: 'These things says the One Who holds the seven stars in His right hand, the One Who walks about in the midst of the seven golden lampstands” (Rev. 2:1).

The Globalist Power War Against Orthodoxy

Once again Mr. Jim Jatras, who I've recommended in the past, has written a very perceptive article which deals with the "Western Campaign against Orthodoxy."  I highly recommend taking the time to read it. The "enlightened" Western Powers will not tolerate anything that does not bow before their totalitarian doctrines. One is not free to …

The Powers Who Pull the Strings

A blessed New Year to all! Once again, more evidence emerges which clearly indicated that the U.S. State Department is one of the real powers behind the Ecumenical Patriarch's anti-Church actions in Ukraine. Mike Pompeo, current Secretary of State, is set to be in Ukraine and will be meeting with leaders of the false church …

Go to Sleep, Everything is Just Fine

"Until the last decade or so the development of what it is perhaps still too early to call 'American Orthodoxy' had been largely unconscious, as it indeed remains in the majority of those who call themselves "Orthodox" today.  But, as the history of Orthodoxy in America has made abundantly clear, "unconscious" Orthodoxy is but a …

Refusing Fellowship with Schismatics Guards true Unity

The brief synopsis in English of the statement of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) under His Beatitude, Met. Onuphy, is well worth a read. In it, the reader will note vital themes that have been echoed in my blog and by others. The divisive, one may even say diabolical, actions of the EP in Ukraine …

The New Epoch and the Loss of Personhood and Self-knowledge

“We must speak with children about the dangers of temptation. Toward the end of the 1950s a new epoch dawned in Europe, and two misfortunes came quickly upon us: the post-Christian era and globalism, along with the erosion of faith and the crumbling of morality. Now that I have reached old age I have begun …

The Integration of State and Religion: A Globalist Agenda

In America, we have a convenient delusion that is maintained through various means. This delusion is the "separation of church and state." On the contrary, the U.S. Government is most willing to utilize "religion" for the propagation of its agenda. In fact, it is, I believe, not a stretch to posit that the current global …
