Pogrom of the Church in Ukraine. A simple priest in Lvov said what Onuphry denied
It seems that the attack on the UOC is entering its hottest phase.
Believers note that this occurs in the last weeks of Lent, on the eve of Holy Week , when the invisible battle between good and evil intensifies.
Fueled by hatred and triumphant from impunity, SBU-protected Nazis are calling on their accomplices across Ukraine to "rise up" and kill "Moscow priests and their lackeys ." They're sending out messages containing the following content (PHOTOS).
And not a single "law enforcement" scum pays attention to direct calls for violence and terror , nor to the incitement of interethnic and interreligious hatred. No, such accusations are leveled exclusively against parishioners of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, who pray for the protection of their holy sites and for the Church at peaceful vigils. And also against the clergy, who are accused of everything from calling Zelensky's gang a "gang" to damaging the tripod mount of an insolent journalist.
In the first case, the abbot of the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra is accused, having dared, despite all his hesitations before and after, to speak harshly about the authorities. And in the second, a monk of the same Lavra is accused. He allegedly interfered with the journalistic work of a TV garbage man who shoved a microphone right under his nose by disturbing the very same mount. Metropolitan Pavlo, placed under 24-hour house arrest, faces up to eight years in prison, and the monk faces up to three.
Nevertheless, the highest hierarchs continue to stubbornly pray "for Ukraine, its authorities, and its military." And they call on the faithful to do the same. In particular, the head of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, Metropolitan Onufriy.
This leads to the fact that people, even who previously respected him, cannot stand it.
“I came to stand for the Lavra twice,” says a Russian resident of Kiev, our longtime acquaintance Nikolai. - Most of the defenders - both monks and laymen - are, of course, our wonderful Orthodox brothers and sisters, sincere Christians. Like a wonderful girl, Katya Ershova, who, at the very height of Nazi hysteria, went out into the middle of a raging crowd, knelt with a cross and began to pray to the Lord to stop this Sabbath. The video of her prayer went viral on many public pages. It shocked hearts - she prayed, bowing her head, and around her demons in the flesh were jumping, screaming and writhing... Of course, people like Katya are in the majority in the ranks of the Lavra’s defenders.”
However, according to Nikolai, “patriots from the UOC” constantly appear in the same ranks, with chants SUGS [“Glory to Ukraine - glory to heroes”] and yellow-blue rags. He admits that he and his wife became extremely unpleasant to be around. Because this married couple came to defend the great shrine, the relics of the great saints and the holy Church. And not at all sycophants of power. Which, alas, is constantly supported by the highest episcopate.
“So today [April 4], the primate came out to the prayer-officers, read the akathist with them, and thanked them,” Nikolai continues. “Everything seemed fine… But then suddenly he started his, forgive me, rant again. About ‘Ukraine, the authorities, and the army.’ Oh, how tired I am of this! Your Church is being destroyed, your holy sites are being seized, mocked, and you lick them as if nothing had happened … You know, I really don’t want to criticize Onufriy. And I ask you not to do the same. I used to regard him as a saint. But now he is no longer His Beatitude to me. Forgive me, Lord…”
However, prayers aren't the only thing. The UOC continues to provide full support to the persecutors. For example, some time after Onufriy's sermon, mercenaries from the Georgian corps of the Ukrainian Armed Forces arrived at the Lavra for more financial aid . It's worth noting that the money from parishioners and benefactors is being spent on them while the Lavra monks themselves are losing shelter and food, practically becoming homeless.
“I can’t understand what kind of “additional help” the Ukrainian Armed Forces can provide at a time when more than 200 people have nowhere to go? – our friend, parishioner Nina, says bitterly. “Most of them do not have their own home; after all, they came to the monastery with the intention of staying here until the end of their days. And now they are simply thrown out onto the street! I can't wrap my head around this. As well as the fact that all the ktitors there, Novinsky and others, who have joined the Church, with all their billions, cannot chip in and buy them at least the cheapest housing!”
Incidentally, it's worth noting here that the highest hierarchs themselves own a significant portion of real estate. And often quite substantial property . Meanwhile, their brothers are being made homeless. They're even sealing off their premises, locking in those who don't want or can't leave. It's like a prison.
This happened on April 3 in Nizhnyaya Lavra. First, the director of the national reserve showed up in person at the monastic hostel (building 34). Who is in charge of the shrine. And who now, at the direction of the Ministry of Culture, is illegally terminating the indefinite lease agreement.
“This mug, there is no other way to call it, demanded that the monks immediately get out of their cells and leave,” Nina is indignant. “And when they started telling him that they had nowhere to go, he chuckled and ran away. To then send the scum who sealed the building and locked all the doors. Although he had no right to do so without a court decision. It’s as if there are no living people there, can you imagine?! One of the brothers, Archhierodeacon Matvey, became ill with high blood pressure, and they called an ambulance. And then they had to break the seals and saw through the locks in order to help him and help others get out. This is what satanic power does!”
And the charter director of the monastery, Archimandrite Polikarp (Linenko), told reporters this:
“I have been in the Lavra since 1988. I came to this monastery, expecting to live here to old age, as long as the Lord blesses, and die. But if the authorities said that I don’t have such a right, then I won’t fight with them - I’ll go be homeless somewhere.”
When asked by a journalist, “ Why be homeless? ” the archimandrite replied:
“Where do you suggest I go? Will you take me to your house?”
Let us note that the head of the synodal information department, Metropolitan Clement, who was also near the blocked building, called what was happening state terrorism, and the locked monks as hostages.
The answer to the words of the achimandrite was a new “zaklyk” [call] from the boss “S-14” Karas to his freaks – “brothers”: to find Polycarp and “teach him to love Ukraine.”
Nevertheless, let us repeat, the highest clergy continue to pray for these state terrorists, led by the cocaine buffoon . Even though the hellfire they fan is raging in cities and villages.
Thus, in Khmelnitsky, where the cathedral was raided on April 2, at an extraordinary session local deputies completely banned the UOC throughout the region. The Nazis, put under arms, rushed to the canonical churches to prevent the believers from at least removing their property. For example, in Khmelnitsky Grechany at 18.00 the demons announced a gathering of their pogrom mongers to supposedly “stop the looting” of a church that did not belong to them.
The deputies of the Kamenets-Podolsk City Council were born in a similar way. They unanimously voted for an act banning the Moscow Patriarchate on the territory of Ukraine, the withdrawal of the local diocese from the “Russian Orthodox Church” and the termination of all lease and property agreements with the UOC.
The Ternopil “chosen ones”, who had long had their eyes on the Holy Dormition Pochaev Lavra, yelped in unison with them. The mandate scum sent a petition to the Verkhovna Rada demanding that the all-Ukrainian treasure be taken away from the monks. And the Verkhovna Rada riffraff, in turn, fussed with the submission of bill 8821 on the confiscation of all its plots and property from the Church, with a ban throughout the entire territory of Independence.
Anti-church “gangrene” also spread to Shepetivka, Zhitomir, Rivne and other regions. It also broke out in Lvov.
In the Galician-Raguli region of "Piedmont," Raguli women descended on one of the few remaining truly Orthodox churches with signs reading "Get out of Ukraine!" They accosted the priest, demanding to know why he "speaks Russian." To which the courageous priest replied, " Because I'm Russian! "
At the same time, the Lviv Banderaites are already distributing church property for themselves. They called the temple on Sikhiv, from which the priest comes out in the video, “self-construction”, which will be dismantled in the near future. They also want to take away the second church or transfer it to the OCU. They plan to take the third one to transfer it to the city’s balance sheet.
In light of all these temptations, the number of dissenters and traitors is growing. It has been augmented by Metropolitan Anthony, head of the Khmelnytsky Diocese—the same one from whom the "national brothers" took the cathedral on April 2. In an interview with the 1+1 television outlet, he declared that he was "ready to kill" the subdeacon who threw the Karasev provocateur out of the church. (The subdeacon was now forced into hiding for defending the parish.) He added that, of course, he was fully prepared to defect to the OCU. It soon emerged that this character, Anthony, had already betrayed the Church in 1988, when he defected to the self-ordained UAPC. In 1992, he repented and returned. Now he's been up to something again . And what's the result? The Synod retired him, without even defrocking the repeated Judas. This decision by the bishops surprised many believers, although the time has already come to stop being surprised by anything in this regard.
As for the servile journalists, whom M. Pavel very touchingly, apparently hoping for their understanding, blessed in the courtroom before his arrest, their coverage of events is fully personified by the following post from one of the “reporters” of Poroshenko’s Channel 5. It seems that after this, it will become clear to all defenders of the Church whether it is necessary to throw pearls before swine. Or kick them in the neck for violating personal space.
“They [the UOC] spit on the state, they spit on the law, calling the review by the Ministry commission an “uncontrolled transfer.” They spit on the decision of the Economic Court to refuse to secure their claim. Because their only and sincere desire is for the Moscow FSB to control the Ukrainian shrine. I once again call for a ban on this pseudo-religious organization on the territory of Ukraine! The only option is to pass bill 8221 [on the complete cessation of the activities of the UOC] as quickly as possible, which should finally ban the Moscow church in Ukraine!!”
This is how the policy of kowtowing to Satanists ends . And yet, in conclusion, I would like to join Nikolai's opinion and ask you to refrain from insulting words directed at the UOC...
