The choice is simple: “Putin” or Christ?

I don’t mean a specific person with a specific surname Putin. One person doesn't really decide anything. And a certain collective “Putin”, a group of people and an established political system. A system based on lies, theft and violence.

A judge decides a person’s fate (the question of his life and death) not according to the Law, but by a call “from above.” What am I doing? He (she) apparently asks himself a question. You lie, you act like an unrighteous judge who betrayed Christ, you get stuck in sin.

Journalists from a television company make a political film based on lies for good money. What are we doing, they ask themselves. You are lying. You become "sowers of tares." You serve the one whom the Holy Scriptures call the Father of Lies. This is Satan, you serve Satan.

Copy police officers give false testimony in court that a certain citizen pinched them, pushed them, bit them, etc. An innocent man is thrown into a dungeon. We need to feed our families. Apparently this is how they explain their actions to themselves. What have we done? You have broken one of God's ten main commandments. Don't bear false witness!

What are all these people doing? They are sinning! There is only one terrible thing that can separate an Orthodox person (a Christian in general) from the Lord Jesus Christ. It's a sin. Sin is the mediastinum that forever closes salvation from sinners. And today, dear journalists, judges, police officers, you have a choice before you. The choice is on the threshold of eternity, for human life is very short. The choice is simple. Who are you with? With “Putin” or with Christ? What's your solution?
