The KGB originated as the Oprichni Secret Police of the Russian Orthodox State-establishment.
Meet the New Bear, Same as the Old Bear
Aren’t these the same old Soviet restrictions?
Wow. Don’t give Barry any ideas ...
Coming attractions.
What about a Bible verse reference printed on the bottom of a fast food drink cup?
This likely will be the destiny of the Christian Church here in America if Hillary wins.
Is this aimed at moslems and western gay loving faiths? Where did the perceived needs for this law come from?

Well, good! Door knockers like the JWs need to take a clue. That includes the standing JWs at street corners holding the AWAKE pamphlet.
Funny! Satan will overplay his cards again.
Whenever there is persecution and the Word of God is suppressed, the brighter the light of God shines.
ISIS and their activities have driven hundreds of thousands, if not millions of former muslims into the Safety Net of Christ. The same will happen soon in Russia I see.
I suspect this will be strongly enforced against muslims.
Same old LIES!!!!
Orthodox Saints and Metropolitans OPPOSED the Oprichniki!!!!

The Oprichnina was disbanded in 1572.

The REAL issue is that missionaries of protestant sects—which call Russia “unreached territory” and do not consider Orthodox to be “real Christians”—have NO PLACE in Russia—or in the rest of the Orthodox world!!!! Soros of course supports them!
From the information below it seems this law is aimed at Islamic groups as well as non-registered Christian groups, such as the Jehovah Witnesses and (probably) certain Baptist groups. And my guess is that it won’t apply in the same way to Orthodox Church services or public displays.
NOT IN ANY WAY APPROVING - such clarifying that the aim of the law is broader than Christians.

I see that Russia is making a last desperate gamble to go back to their ‘glory days’, and it will fail pitifully. While this is hardly good news for Christians they are far from the bogeymen who terrified everyone who professed faith - many of the KGB are either too broke or drunk to be worth a hoot and their government is running on financial fumes.

From what I’ve read, the new laws are aimed at islam, not Christianity.
aren’t these laws to be enacted primarily aimed as the Muslim religion? After all, Russia has had more problems with radical Islam than the US.
How long until this happens here?
Her’s a better discussion of the law, which is controversial in Russia, and may well be modified:
I still stand by my original assertion that some “Western”-backed sects operating in the Orthodox world are subversive, and are backed by obama, Soros, and the EU, etc. The goal is to make Russia—and Serbia, Ukraine, etc. subservient to the New World Order,and to destroy the Orthodox Church!
And I am NO “Comrade”!!!! How many thousands of Orthodox delivers became martyrs and confessors under the Bolshevik yoke? How many hundreds of Holy Orthodox Temples were demolished by the Bolsheviks?
Perhaps the worst part of this Russian law is that it will give Imam obama and Crooked Hillary ideas for how to destroy Christianity in the U.S.—including the Holy Orthodox Church!!! But they may well have these ideas in their corrupt heads already, as well as alternative ways (i.e., the “gays”) to accomplish their evil goals!!!!
Sounds like they are reviving the religious laws under Tsarist times. These will be used against anyone that the Russian Orthodox Church (which is a branch of the government) deems to be heretics or schismatics. That includes Catholics, Protestants, Old Believers, Dukhabors, etc. These laws won’t be used against moslems because Russia has had a long history of being warmly accommodating to moslems.
