* as of August 19, AD 2009, a liberal protestant SECT, not part of the holy, catholic and apostolic CHURCH.
Save thy people, O Lord,
and bless thy inheritance;
Give thy Church victory over her enemies
and protect thy people by thy Holy Cross.
O Lord, save Your people,
And bless You inheritance.
Grant victories to the Orthodox Christians
Over their adversaries.
And by virtue of Your Cross,
Preserve Your habitation.
There is a growing number, now estimated as over 100,000, of Russian Orthodox Christians in Israel. They are Israeli citizens, and serve in the army. The younger ones, at least, speak Hebrew, and the Israeli army prints New Testaments in Hebrew for their use. Needless to say, they are NOT dhimmis.
If the ELCA and other liberal-protestant American “churches” won’t stand up for Israeli Jews as they should, can they stand up for Israeli Orthodox Christians? I think not. They only support the dhimmi leaders of Arab Christian churches, whether Lutheran, Anglican, or even Orthodox.
But even these dhimmi Arab heirarchs are really mis-leaders, because their own people have been ethnically cleansed by the “Palestinian” islamists for a long time. In 10-20 years, at this rate, the ONLY Christians in the Holy Land will be Israeli Christians, with the majority of them Russian Orthodox. But, sadly, our holy places will probably be abandoned, and at best they will be museums. Lord have mercy!!!!
