The dominant spiritual stature of the Holy City teaches us how performed the transcendence, and on a personal level and at the level of Church and society. Reminder to everyone that Orthodoxy is life,” he added. In addition, he noted that “today’s celebration serves as a liaison to the Holy Synod and the Theological Schools and provides the opportunity for discussion on a new topic that is central to the Church”.

Hence did not treat the rules as independent texts from the theology, worship and, generally, ecclesiastical reality.”
Subsequently, the archbishop commented that “our age has many difficulties,” featured “age of decline” that will take a long time and recommended to not be hasty in serious issues.
