The only way to Orthodox Christian unity is to ignore jurisdictional disputes by focusing on the ONLY Head of the Church--Lord Jesus Christ, our God and Savuiour.
I am personally sick to death of the egomaniacal jockeying for power of both Patriarch Bartholomew of Constantinople and Patriarch Alexis of Moscow. This is doing great harm to the Orthodox Church. Neither is a man I admire or look to for spiritual guidance.
I accept any jurisdiction that professes the Orthodox Christian faith in the Three-in-One (Trinity): Father-Lord Jesus Christ-Holy Spirit, that acknowledges Lord Jesus as the ONLY Head of His Church, God the Son become Man, crucified for and by our evil (our hatred of LOVE/God and of each other), atoning for our sins, cleansing us; reuniting His soul and body in His glorious Resurrection, restoring His human nature to the original pre-fallen state, restoring our human nature in His; ascending into Father, deifying His human nature, deifying our human nature in His, sending Holy Spirit into us to make us partakers of His Divine-Human nature, partakers of His cleansing, restoration and deification of our human natures. The faith of the Nicene Creed. I accept any jurisdiction that emphasizes love above all, that rejects hatred in any form: abortion, abuse, prejudice, pride, greed, lust, nationalism, racism; that acknowledges the Divine Image in each human person from the beginning,-conception.
I accept the following , if they abide by the above:
Albanian, Patriarchate of Alexandria (Greek),Antiochian, Armenian, Belorussian, Bulgarian, Cyprus,Egyptian (Coptic),Eritrean, Ethiopian, Finnish, Georgian, Hungarian, Indian, Patriarchate of Jerusalem(Greek), Latvian, Macedonian, Orthodox Church in America,Romanian, Russian (Moscow Patriarchate/ Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia/ Old Believers), Serbian, Slovak, Syrian, Ukrainian ( Patriarchate of Constantinople/ Patriarchate of Moscow/ Patriarchate of Kiev).
Plus any I've forgotten.
I make no distinction between Greek/Byzantine Orthodox and Oriental Orthodox.
The Oriental Orthodox churches were not , as Churches, ever monophysitic.
As far as the Patriarchate of Kiev is concerned: no it isn't kosher for a Church to make itself a a patriarchate; but it's also not kosher for a Church to make itself autocephalous as the Russian Church did in 1463 and the Church of Greece did in 1833. Both initially rejected by the Patriarchs of Constantinople (Istanbul) but later accepted by them. There is no real difference between a patriarch and an archbishop of an autocephalous church.
The human race is in a very serious state. All Christians are dealing with militant atheism, militant Islam and occultism ( which has become incredibly widespread in the past 40 years). We are all dealing with satanic child-hatred: abortion, abuse, abandonment, neglect, people who put themselves before their children, people who spoil their children (a form of abuse usually not recognized as such), people who actually worship their children (turning them into raving egomaniacs).
Focus on what is important, ignore the picky stuff. Don't discount devout Roman Catholics and Evangelicals; cooperate where you can with them and with other sincere seekers of truth.
We are clearly at the end of the end of the End Times. When people have reached the point of hating their own children we're there; when people have reached the point where they openly mock and blaspheme Lord Jesus, even to the point of mocking His suffering and death for us, we're clearly there. When those who call themselves Christians are denying Him in their own churches (the Great Apostacy which is running through every Christian body on earth and has completely dominated many ), we're clearly there . I seriously doubt we have 20 years to Lord Jesus' manifestation in glory, when He will re-unite the dead with their bodies, show forth the general judgement, leave the haters of Love -the evil- to the outer darkness they have chosen, and create a new universe where Love is all in all.
Amen ! Come Lord Jesus.
