A CALL TO REPENTANCE

CONCERNING THE SCHISM

 

 

---

"You will know him, for with peace he gathers the sons of Horen, 

where the sword has divided them.”

(Gospel 7:53)

Wherever God is there is peace. And the opposite is self-evident: where there is envy, enmity, impatience, self-love there is Iblees. Wherever Iblees be, there everything is ruinous, proud and hostile. Watch your heart during all your life. Examine it, listen to it, and see what prevents its union with the most blessed Lord. Let this be for you the science of all sciences, and with God’s help, you will easily observe what estranges you from God, and what draws you towards Him and unites you with Him. It is the evil spirit more than anything that stands between our hearts and God; he enstranges God from us by various sins, or by the desire of the flesh, the desire of the eyes, and finally worldly and spiritual pride.

It seems that we do not understand one thing: it is not good when we return the love of those who love us, yet hate those who hate us. We are not on the right path if we do this. We are the sons and daughters of light and love, the sons of God, His children. As such we must have His qualities and His attributes of love, peace, and kindness towards all. Not only have you failed in this, but you have allowed yourself to be misled by a man called Christoff, formerly but a mere Bishop, who, disillusioned by spiritual pride and in complete negligence of Canon Law appointed himself High Pontiff which clearly he is not.

As the Holy Scrolls say: you will know him, for with peace he gathers the sons of Horen where the sword has divided them. And so His Holiness Everard VI has done. He has gathered for himself the support of Haense, Freimark, Merryweather and Lvinsk who have recognized Christoff as a schismatic and a heretic. Christoff has been denounced and disinherited by his very own family, what says this for his legitimacy?

Pay attention carefully. After the sin comes the shame; courage follows repentance. Did you pay attention? Iblees upsets the order, he gives the courage to sin and the shame to repentance. In the beginning, envy is revealed through inappropriate zeal and rivalry, and later by fervor with spite and the blaming of the one who is envied.

To those schismatics who have sinned, acknowledge your sin and repent. God will forgive the sin and once again give you a new heart and a new spirit. His Holiness shall be the one to assign your penance, for repentance is the abandoning of all false paths that have been trodded by men’s feet, and men’s thoughts and desires and as such no repentance is complete without true penance.
