1. The apostle Paul said: "If God is for us, who is against us?"

On this day, exactly 4 years ago, a great historical event took place, in which God was with us, and we were with God! The Orthodox #Church of Ukraine received Tomos from the Ecumenical Patriarch.⬇️

2.The creation of the autocephalous Orthodox Church of Ukraine is a guarantee of our independence.This is the foundation of our spiritual freedom. We broke the ties that tied us to Moscow with its fantasies about Ukraine as the canonical territory of the russian Orthodox Church⬇️
3. And today we have to finish what we started once and for all.
I will not stop thanking the Ecumenical #Patriarch as the spiritual leader of the #Orthodox people, as a global figure who heard our voice and our requests. I am grateful to all Ukrainians who sincerely believed⬇️

The Patriarch of the Serbian Orthodox Church met today with the Serbian President after the so-called Kosovo authorities banned Patriarch from entering #Kosovo:

"Imagine if someone forbade the Pope to come to the Vatican or the Lateran, the whole world would rise to its feet."
The Serbian Patriarch called on the West to make an impact on the Kosovo Albanians to change a senseless, absurd and irrational decision ban on the entering Kosovo.
The Serbian Patriarch: Yesterday was a sad day for our brothers and sisters in #Kosovo and Metohija. They were waiting their #Patriarch to pray together for all our people who are suffering in Kosovo and Metohija, for peace in the world and peace between Albanians and Serbs.

THREAD #Serbian #Orthodox #Church bishops start Conclave (#Sabor-Holy Assembly in #SPC parlance) to elect new #Patriarch, 3 months after previous died of #Covid. Election much more about politics than religion, mainly #Serbia #Kosovo relations but also #Russia Orthodox Church /2
2/ vs. #Ecumenical Patriarch of #Constantinople. Most of numerous traditional cleavages within SPC (Young Lions vs. Old Guards); Serbians vs. TransDrinians; ecumenicals vs. hardline Orthodox etc. will be irrelevant with only the split between Russian vs. Greek students, roughly/3
3/corresponding with main division: support for whatever "solution" President Vucic might propose to satisfy int'l demand to at least de facto recognize Kosovo vs. stubborn refusal to accept anything not in line with current Serbian constitution that says #KosovoJeSrbija. /4

THREAD #PopeFrancis gives rare interview to #Serbia semi-official daily @PolitikaOnline. But as "Francisko", a name that in Serbian evokes sombreroed Mexican bandits rather than @Pontifex. Who is responsible for this #Vatican PR disaster? None other than Papal Nuntius to Serbia/2
Appreciate if someone knows of a way to connect this thread together, in right order 1-9. Thanks

SAINT MOSES - 4th SEPTEMBER

~thread~
1. St Moses, Patriarch, lived during the 12th cent. B.C. His feast day is September 4.

What we know of this Hebrew leader and law-giver we learn from the inspired text of Holy Scripture, especially from the Book of Exodus.

2. He died at the age of 120 years on the borders of the Promised Land. Where he was buried no man knows.

The Epistle of St Jude speaks of the altercation of the devil with St Michael concerning the body of Moses.
3. He is one of the few Saints of the Old Law whom the Catholic Church includes by name in her Calendars and Martyrologies. (from the Book of Saints by the Monks of Ramsgate) #Bible #patriarch #prophet #OldTestament #Christian #Christianity #CatholicSaints
