Archimandrite Gregorios (Estephan)
We currently live in an age of secular globalization and corrupt ecumenical dialogues that destroy all the divine precepts that the Lord Jesus Christ has handed down to us. Globalization and its first-born ecumenism marginalize dogma and neutralize in the mind of the Orthodox faithful this holy belief in the one faith that was handed down to them. It is in this manner that the devil confuses truth with delusion i.e. Christ with Belial.

"One of the things happening within us is the movement of the imagination, which is one of the main obstacles to prayer and roots us in our fallenness. Spirituality must be based in actual contact with the living God, not with mere images which lead us to communion with our own ability to create religious scenarios. Even Satan can appear as an angel of light and enter into the realm of our imagination and passions."

Archimdrite Kirill (Pavlov)
Dear brothers and sisters, having such a great multitude of saints shining forth in our Russian land, we should rejoice and be comforted, that we are not alone, but we have in Heaven our older brothers, our protectors and intercessors, who see all of our needs and hear all of our prayers and lamentations. Let us turn to them today with a heartfelt prayer for the Russian land and for the salvation of our souls, that they might by their prayers implore for us the mercy and grace of God: All saints of our land, pray to God for us! Amen.
Met. Hierotheos Vlachos
"As I stated in the meeting of the Holy and Great Synod, the text doesn’t have a strict ecclesiological basis. The question of what the Church is and who are its members was one of the nearly one hundred issues which had been raised by the Holy and Great Synod, but, over time, fell to the wayside in view of a wider conversation and dialogue, to be decided later. Hence what the Church is and who are its members must first of all be discussed and defined, and only after this can the position of the heterodox be defined."
