    Ethiopia 🇪🇹 and Russia 🇷🇺 were the furthest orthodox countries & they were the last orthodox Christians defense against Islam and barbarian. Middle East and North Africa completely destroyed by Islam. Today 95% North African populations either killed, slaved, sold into slavery and the rest forced to Islam. Now, Russia 🇷🇺 is our only hope to keep the early church teaching and traditions alive until Christ returns.

    many,many miles from me. Even then it is a small home converted into a church. In the South of the USA Orthodoxy is as rare as a Polar Bear.
    I watched an interview last evening, an older one , 60 minutes, and they interviewed Him. His grace, was such an exemplary person. If you were to contrast the Pope of Rome with him .... the differences are astounding .

Orthodox Christianity has a rich culture and spiritual value unlike the west who thinks woman should wear less dresses. I have a deep love for Orthodox Christianity. If I was not a Muslim, I would have been Orthodox Christian. If any people reading this, return to your faith. Or you will be like west who have money but deppression. Btw, I don't hate the West.

    As a Messianic Semite Jew, this is good to see that the Apostle Paul is being recited to the church there.
    He is correct in saying that the Roman empire had difficulties in destroying what is the original "Nazrani" following of Ha'mashia Yeshua. What is left out was the relentless effort of the pharisees of the time as well. Rejoice that with the Holy Spirit both failed.

    As a Christian I wish our church would have this guy as our pope, he is a living saint in my eyes and I think he would save our church

    Long life to Russia and the Russian people. I was raised Catholic but as I learn more about Orthodoxy, the more I respect it. You truly are the sword and pen of God. May you carry His torch, as the west is turning its back on Him

    Why don't we have a pope like this man, who is not afraid to speak the truth and defend the Holy Tradition in the midst of so much chaos and degeneration?
