What is it going to take to make people see the deception behind unity in face of iniquity? Some might say this is not about ecclesiastical unification but some strategic alliance in the face of evil … is it really about that? This is the question every Orthodox Christian will have to address and have

Lot is being called out of America, Lot must leave now! America has sealed her faith, and together with hers, of all those that have fornicated with her iniquities. God’s judgement must be near, for her iniquities have reached up to Heaven. http://www.theguardian.com/society/2015/jun/26/gay-marriage-legal-supreme-court Woe to all those other nations that are trying to follow in

Why is it that Orthodoxy has to join other confessions or organizations in standing up for what it is right, like supporting the traditional marriage? Why do our Orthodox leaders have to make Orthodoxy just another one of those groups that voice their concerns amongst many others? Does Orthodoxy not have a unique identity any

Nowadays we hear so much talk about the “canonical” bishop or synod, but little do they explain to you what canonical really means. In the understanding of World Orthodoxy (wordly Orthodoxy), what is generally referred to as canonical is the ability to trace a bishop back to the Apostles through the bishop that anointed him.

“He started his visit at the green grass-roofed Russian Pavilion, where Putin groupies held signs saying “Putin—Save the world!”“ “By the grace of God, I have nothing to regret in my life” he replied in an interview with Corriere Della Sera newspaper when asked if he had any regrets. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/06/10/did-pope-francis-just-dis-putin.html

Much controversy has been surrounding Fr Arsenie recently, was he a saint or was he not? Many have been asking why Fr Arsenie depicted Francis of Assisi amongst the saints in the prophetic paintings at Draganescu Church in Romania. There are records of even some of the latter spiritual elders of the Romanian Orthodox Church

We can only wonder if anyone can possibly say it in a better way then they have said it themselves: Quote: The Jews of Russia must realize the dangers inherent in the possible collapse of the Putin government. We do not have the privilege of losing what we have achieved. All Russian Jews, especially those

Having accumulated a vast amount of wealth for a humble Orthodox president, here we get another clear indication on how this has been achieved, and we can clearly see that, behind the scenes, he is just part of the same elite. “And shortly after the Russians announced their intention to acquire a majority stake in

With every passing day the economic situation in Greece worsens, and instead of being on the side of the people, the Greek government seems to want to drain everything out of the Greek economy before they finally let things fall appart. This approach is indeed hard to understand. Who’s interests are the current administration serving?

Our note: in light of what St John of Shanghai and San Francisco wrote, it is becoming evident that the “Holy Synod” of 2016 will come to seal the falling away of the Ecumenical Patriarchate from the truth and will undoubtedly mark the beginning of universal apostasy in the Orthodox World. This moment will be

All those that fornicated with this world are now being summoned for payback. Mammon is demanding support from all those that have been seduced by the temptations of this world and thus rejected God, be it politicians, actors, celebrities, bankers, business people, everyone. http://christiannews.net/2015/03/07/over-300-prominent-republicans-come-out-of-closet-in-support-of-homosexual-marriage/ If this world gave you much, much it is going to

Dear Orthodox reader, we encourage you to read the following article and see, once again, the ecumenist stance of the Moscow Patriarchate. As expected, the lecture focuses on the subject of uniting all Christian denominations around the same goal of forming a united front in fighting against iniquity and impending calamity, leaving dogmatic and theological

Orthodoxy is under attack, from both sides. And the kind of war they are waging against Her is one to force everyone to take sides! They don’t want you to keep your discernment and maintain your inner peace, they want you to make a choice, they want you to get involved. They are stirring up

It is not without meaning that the Church is always likened to a shepherd and a flock: Christ and the believers, the priest and the parishioners. Why is there a need for a shepherd? Because there are wolves out there, and the sheep are always in danger! Without wolves there would be no need for

In an article earlier this year (April 2014) we pointed out that the “Holy” Pan-Orthodox synod was set for 2016, allowing Moscow a little more time (two years) to become “better prepared”. http://orthodoxaustralia.org/2014/04/06/more-on-the-pan-orthodox-synod-of-2016/ As we start 2015, the sort of preparations referred to are much more clear to see: the World Orthodoxy is preparing for

http://www.aparatorul.md/poza-zilei-estetica-patriarhului-chiril/ What is missing from this picture? (hint: everything that could remind us of the Heavenly Church) The Cathedral of Jesus Christ the Saviour in Kaliningrad, Patriarch Kirill’s favorite creation, a project he started before becoming a Patriarch, contains not one icon or image of anything sacred in Orthodoxy. It looks like anything but an

Update: Thanks God it has been canceled, some people have come to their senses. But the five pointed red star still stands … Let us thus ask one question: if the Eye of Sauron has just been deemed to be a satanic symbol by the Russian Orthodox Church, how is the five pointed star different?

Just like it was the case in Romania one year ago with the incorrupt body of Blessed George Calciu, another saint found having his body incorrupt was quickly re-buried, this time in America. The local first hierarch of the current Moscow Patriarchate / ROCOR, Metropolitan Hilarion of Eastern America & New York, led the re-burial

Prophecies of Blessed Bishop Theophan of Poltava (+1940) Oh, Russia, Russia! How terribly has she sinned before the loving-kindness of the Lord. The Lord God favoured Russia, and He gave her that which He had not given to a single other nation on earth. And this nation turned out to be so ungrateful. She left

Russia, oh Russia, you must hear, you must hear now! There is very little time left, and you must understand at once! They are tempting you with earthly glory and power. They are telling you “come and receive your well deserved place in the world, come and become the leaders of the new world (order),
