To Bishops and priests of Moldova

                                               For God and for Moldova!

Dear Bishops and priests of Moldova,

our Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate, which is separated from the Vatican, is watching with pain the betrayal of the nation and of all moral and Christian values by some leading politicians. How is it possible that the post of the Prime Minister of Moldova has been given to a man who does not represent moral and human values? It is a shock that this representative of the people is doing quite the opposite. For thirty pieces of silver he has risen in opposition to the people of Moldova and to moral and spiritual values of his nation. If in a state of war a high officer betrays the nation, he is sentenced to death by the military court and shot as a warning. Now there is an ongoing psychological struggle when not only independence of the Moldovan nation but mainly its moral and spiritual values are at stake. But the first of all things that is at stake is the eternal life of those who will fall victim to homosexual perversion and to the criminal juvenile justice system that are being promoted.

Your Prime Minister Vlad Filat has not only committed treason but he also advocates the legalization of crimes against humanity, especially against innocent and defenceless children. Therefore, the Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate calls on all bishops, all priests and all the faithful of the Moldovan nation to hold a nationwide demonstration with the demand for immediate removal of the Prime Minister from office. The people must demonstrate until he is deposed and brought to justice. By promoting homosexual ideology associated with juvenile justice, he promotes the legalization of crimes against humanity. It is a Judas betrayal of the nation and innocent children.

May Your bold step for the sake of God’s laws and protection of children set a precedent for all Europe which, through the fault of the Catholic hierarchy, has betrayed the divine and moral law and brought a curse on itself!

Be brave. For God and for Moldova!

Praying for You,

                                                                                                    + Elijah
