PROTEST AGAINST THE CLOSURE OF CHURCHES
BY ARCHIM. FR. SAVVAS HAGIOREITES
8/11/20
The Holy Archangels and Generals Michael and Gabriel that we celebrate today, and all the Angelic Forces of whom we celebrate the Synaxis, may they protect us, and they do protect us, and may they help us, and they do help us, and they councel and sanctify us; and may they protect us from any conceivable and perceptible enemy, personally each one of us, and also our families and our homeland and the whole world, for the Christian is a philanthropist and loves everyone as Christ loves even His enemies. So, in view of the great holiday of Christmas, we wish everyone good repentance and a blessed Lent. We also wish repentance to the rulers, to the politicians and to the ecclesiastics who cooperate with them; fortunately not all ecclesiastics , only some of them, who seek to weaken the church and to remove the orthodox flock from the source of life which is Christ.
But of course it shall not be done as they wish, even though they say several things, in order to gild this poisonous pill which they are trying to give us. They say we shall render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s, and that we owe obedience to Caesar. We must not obey Caesar when what he says is contrary to what God says. We are never allowed to close the Church, to stop the Worship and the Holy Liturgy for it is contrary to the command of God, as He told us to “do this in My memory”.
Nor is going to Church lack of love, as they tell us. On the contrary, this is love, to go and pray for all, and for those who do not go, and to receive the Holy Sacraments, which is the greatest shield to every conceivable and perceptible enemy, and to every disease, for the doctor of our souls and bodies , is Christ.
Medical Science has been torn apart. People have stopped trusting doctors and hospitals because unfortunately some, not all, are paid; they are paid to declare fake patients, that they have covid, thus increasing the indicators, the scales and the scores of the government, in order to impose more and more burdensome measures, at the urging of the Zionists, for the coming of the world government and the world dictatorship. They will try to promote through the vaccine and through the scarring that will accompany the vaccine, as Saint Paisios said, that a disease will come, and that they will try to impose the vaccine and with it will be the scarring.
They’ve already been talking to us about the digital element that will accompany the vaccine, which will prove that you have been vaccinated, and which will be with a laser because the scarring will not be inside; it will not be the chip as some say, it will be with a laser as Saint Paisios has said, and other saints have said this, too, for scarring denotes drawing deep straight lines. Let’s keep this in mind so that we shall not be misled by such, so to speak, punchlines, which say that we must obey the Church and its Synod. But which Synod? No Synod meeting has taken place; there has not been a meeting of the Synod of the Hierarchy for far too long.
What is being done was decided by two or three people, by Hierarchs who cooperated with the government, and it was imposed in an authoritarian way. This is the truth. We ought to speak the truth in order to dispel the darkness of the devil which has been trying to be spread over our homeland. We ought to tell the truth, and to be with the truth, and never serve the lie.
This is, so to speak, the whole situation, a dictatorship that is trying to impose itself exploiting health. As correctly stated, it is a health dictatorship; this is what we are living now, which has literally torn doctors apart, and if they continue like this, they will be totally humiliated in front of the eyes of the people, precisely because they do not serve the truth, all those who, as we said, for the sake of profit, write false diagnoses. They do not allow people who have patients in hospitals to see them, and they do not allow post-mortem autopsies. Why all this? Isn’t it suspicious? Definitely, for the lie has other lies next to it, and it uses every means to justify itself. But as people say, it’s short lived. Lie will not go too far. It is slowly being revealed, and the people have begun to wake up and see the forthcoming destruction which is certainly financial; shortly we will not be able to have the bare necessities but above all, if we do not react spiritually and take care of the Worship and the Holy Communion, the greatest destruction will be spiritual. For according to the Sacred Tradition, when the Christian misses church for three consecutive Sundays, meaning he misses Holy Communion, he becomes excommunicated. Man only lives spiritually through Holy Worship and Holy Communion. As we have said, we must try to achieve this at all costs, even if it means that we have to travel long distances.
Glory to our God, always, now and forever, world without end. Amen.
