The religion of the Antichrist for former Russians,
Ukrainians and Belarusians becomes (or has, rather, long become) a mixture of
“Orthodox-likeness” (which is in total professed by all the “official churches”
in the post-Soviet space) with a communist (atheistic) Soviet essence [inherent].
It is precisely this “explosive” combination that makes modern post-Soviet men
completely ready, guided by abstract considerations, to “reasonably” [truly]
and ideologically kill their own brothers, and the nation as a whole – [to be] completely
ready to accept the Antichrist, at that, with joy, “not for fear, but for
conscience.” ".
Orthodoxy cannot be mixed with any other
“projects”, otherwise it ceases to be Orthodoxy and turns into false faith and
ideology. The Orthodox [faithful] understood this very well as
early as in the 4th century, when the Byzantine Empire became Christian, then
true believers left large cities and became hermit monks. But, nevertheless, like
the Byzantine Empire the Russian Empire also protected monks and simply the faithful,
and so it was quite possible for them to live on its territory.

The Local Russian Orthodox Church was our last fortress, which the God-fighting Bolsheviks stormed for 10 years - from 1917 to 1927. Having destroyed the church fence, thanks to the betrayal of Metr. Sergius Stragorodsky, who opened the way for the servants of Satan into the area of church administration, they entered inside and received complete control over the leaders and spiritual mentors, entered this administration, and the atheists themselves became “leaders” and “mentors” – preaching from church pulpits. This was evidenced by the best among the representatives of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia - which remained the last stronghold of true Orthodoxy in our days among the Slavic peoples. But now, unfortunately, they are no longer there, either.

It must be said that various world global centers have
tried to create a global religion since the very beginning of the twentieth
century. The communist center in the Kremlin first tried to create its own
global community without religion at all, since God “disturbed” them in any
manifestation, even the most insignificant. But since they did not succeed,
they could not, so with great difficulty, in the conditions of World War II,
they were forced to pretend that they allegedly “allowed” God into their global
Kremlin system. But in order to create the illusion of God’s presence in their
plans, they needed a “church” completely controlled by the devil, disguised “as
being the real one,” which the theomachists accomplished by creating a fake of a
church—the Moscow Patriarchate.
In other countries, among other peoples, other
projects for taking place for the creation of a church of the Antichrist, but
among the Orthodox Slavs – that was that.

Although there were constant attempts to create
different types of global religion in the world, they did not lead to the
expected result – no single religion ensued for all, even the ecumenical
movement did not achieve its goal of uniting everyone – initially the
Christians, and then everyone in general – into one "church"-organization.
Just as the Papists, the oldest global center laying claim to world domination,
failed to subordinate the entire world to the Pope, so the New Age and other
sects that declared themselves in the beginning of the twentieth century were
unable to develop to a global scale.
As a result, the world proved defeated by the general apathy
and indifference to spiritual life, as such [spiritual]. Contrary to
predictions, triumphant on earth has been dead materialism which is much lower
and more primitive than even paganism and superstition. The artificial,
man-made virtual world has defeated all other beliefs on earth. So today,
even the point of inventing new forms of global religion has been lost. Instead
of global religions, there is the triumph of materialism (football [soccer],
for example), which was, in fact, what the communist leaders originally dreamed
of (V. I. Lenin dreamed of cinema instead of God, which has, in fact, come
true). It is much simpler to control a mass of unbelievers, [who are] like a
flock of sheep, through the virtual world on their phones than to control
people who believe in God. True, a certain number of believers “in something” do
remain, and so for them it is necessary to create some kind of semi-isolated
“spiritual reservations” so they, too, be satisfied and not interfered with the
life of the bulk of “citizens”.
Such a “spiritual reservation” was created for the
Slavic nations under the guise of an ugly [crooked] “Orthodox-likeness” with a
materialistic essence - the Soviet Church gave birth to “Soviet Orthodoxy,”
which became a spiritual reservation for the post-Soviet Slavs. In the Russian
Federation and Belarus, this hybrid is present in its classical form - in the
form of the Moscow Patriarchate. In Ukraine it is somewhat different - here
there is any (no) government plus no “Orthodox-like” church. By the way, in
Ukraine the OCU is a complete analogue of the Renovationist Church in the USSR,
but only in an Ukrainian mode [way, tonal scale] (with the Ukrainian language, the
ideology of “populism” and everything else). Today it is needed primarily to
help suppress the more powerful Moscow Church. What will happen to it
next—whether the authorities will strangle it (as they strangled the
renovationists in the USSR to make way for the fallen Moscow Patriarchate), or will
leave it to “live” [on] —only God knows.
Today we see that in Ukraine, even all the Orthodox
Christians taken together turned out to be an insignificant group that the
current Ukrainian government can handle quite easily. Without a doubt, that
same thing will happen (if the need arises) in the Russian Federation. And
Muslims, too, both in the Russian Federation and in the world, would fail to
compete with the modern global system. When Europe and America are completely
cleared of any internal problems of Christianity (and they have already, one
might say, almost cleared themselves), they will very quickly resolve all the
“difficult” issues with Islam, as well.
Rather than create a new universal religion, it is
currently more profitable for globalists to “scatter” people into sects, away
from each other and from society, so that those who die in heretical lies would
die quietly and [remaining] unnoticed, without interfering with the “progress
of all the mankind” and its secret "nomenklatura" leaders (above
all). When the Antichrist comes, he will easily gather them all and unite them
in a worldwide supra-religious international, led by a great god-leader.

In general, as one literary character said: brothers, the
last times have now come. It remains for us to await the coming of Christ with
special attention and diligence; as already: “it is near, even at the
door” (Matt. 24:33).
“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His
righteousness” (Matt. 6:33) - seek salvation quickly, otherwise you will
perish! – the time for repentance has already expired...
