In spite of our position which is mostly critical of Moscow’s current political authority, we would be wrong if we did not give credit where credit is due. The stance Russia has taken in Syria by choosing to stand against the lawless West is no little thing. What Russia has done goes against the wave of lawless political overturns and “democratic revolutions” to which Russia itself fell victim at the beginning of the 20th century. It is hard to tell whether this is part of some plan or something is really happening in Russia. It may very well be that the prayers of the millions of holy martyrs confessors against communism are starting to bear fruit, but it is too early to say. The sacrifice of all those Saints would surely not be made right if Russia went along with the new worldwide communist agenda that is being prepared from the very top – the UN. In December in Paris, the UN is again going to try to attempt to push through the falsehood and deception of climate change once again. Where is Russia going to stand? For those martyrs to be vindicated Russia also needs to get out of any unholy alliance like BRICS, which in essence has adopted the same Agenda 21 goals as the UN, and is of the same communist nature.

In short, Russia still has a long way to go to separate itself away from any form of deception if she wants to truly return to her Orthodox roots. If she does so, then the wrath of the world, including her “allies” shall turn against her, but she should fear not, for Christ Himself shall defend her. Russia also needs to relinquish the idea of becoming “the center of global Christianity” and reject the status of the “new world leaders” with which they have been tempted by the West. And finally, but not lastly, Russia needs to withdraw from all ecumenical movements and organizations, and rethink the whole idea of taking part in the next Orthodox synod – there is nothing more that Orthodoxy could decide that has not already been addressed at the previous seven ecumenical synods. Let them go ahead without Russia!

It is now time to pray, for the fate of Holly Russia seems to now be getting to a critical point.
