A member of the State Ethnopolitics Commission, Liudmyla Filipovich, believed that people would voluntarily and massively transfer to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, but this did not happen. This she stated in the air of “Gromadske”.
“I really hope for the wisdom of our people. We expected that people will change their consciousness and will voluntarily transfer. But this is not a mass process,” she said.
Because of the low, in her opinion, number of conversions from the UOC to the OCU, Filipovich had a question for the UOC believers, in whom they believe – “in Jesus Christ or in their abbot.”
She also added that the Church is an “instrument” and salvation “is not given by the Church or the priest.”

А вы у людей для начала спросили нужна ли им ещё одна церковь?
Люди сердцем чувствуют куда им идти – к изгнанному законному священнику с прихода, который служит в приспособленном помещении литургию или в захваченный с кровью защитников-прихожан храм из которого благодать Божия ушла вслед за изгнанным с боем священником! Да уже протрите свои глаза и перечитайте историю церкви особенно раздел о расколах.
Бог в помощь.
