Archpriest Oleg Batov - about the incompatibility of love and violence

To rule the nations with a rod of iron - this is what the spiritual authorities expected from God 2000 years ago. But He instead gave his son to death - to atone for the sins of man. Church hierarchs still preach goodness with their fists - and the more, the further they are from Christ. He gives love to the world. Psychologists talk about the incompatibility of love and violence. But the Gospel speaks about the same thing - if you just read it carefully. This is the Sunday sermon of Archpriest Oleg Batov. Father Oleg is one of the priests who were deprived of the opportunity to serve in Russia due to their pacifist position. The priest is helped by the “Peace to All” project - a team of like-minded people that supports clergy rejected by the Russian Orthodox Church because of calls for peace <a href="https://www.mir-vsem.info/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://www.mir-vsem.info/</a> Support our work <a href="https://supportnovaya.club" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://supportnovaya.club</a> Buy merch <a href="https://ozon.ru/t/bepddwW" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://ozon.ru/t/bepddwW</a> Read our texts here <a href="https://novayagazeta.ru" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://novayagazeta.ru</a> For advertising on the channel, write to reklama2023yt@gmail.com YouTube channel “NO.Media from Russia” is a project of independent journalists who remained in Moscow
