In Words Relate the Prayer...

 

Разкажи молитвата със думи…
Надеждите с поклон подзащити…
Сърцето бие сякаш гони
страха и черното от теб…

Troparion to Saint Spyridon, bishop of Trimythus

Thou wast the Champion of the First Synod and [thou appeared] a wonderworker, / O God-bearing Spyridon, our father. / Thou didst speak to one dead in the grave, / and transformed a serpent into gold, / and while thou wast chanting the holy prayers / the Angels were serving with thee. / Glory to Him Who hast glorified thee gave, / glory to Him Who hast crowned thee, / glory to Him Who through thee works healings for all.

Ukraine Condemned - Metropolitan Agafangel

 

Transl. from Russian

 

Author: Metropolitan Agafangel. Publication date:. Category: Author's column.




It is obvious that today the Russian Federation is returning to the Soviet political system, where the place of communist ideology is occupied by the pseudo-Orthodoxy of the Moscow Patriarchate. But a new society is obviously being built in Ukraine, as well, but what result this construction activities lead to, we can only guess. Let's look at this question from several points of view.

Ukraine in the Field of Political Structure

The first Slavic state-empire of the Rurikhs, which united many nationalities, with the center in Kyiv – the Kievan Rus, - began its existence as an Orthodox state from the moment of the adoption of Christ in 988, and has, one way or another, existed as a single entity for 250 years, up until the Mongol invasion (1237-1240). Kievan Rus partially covered the territories of the modern states of Ukraine, the Russian Federation, Belarus and Poland.
