After asking Orthodox theologians in Greece and in the Holy
Mountain , Athos,
About the health of the doctrine of monument statue amid
Orthodox Monastery
As was expected, according to our modest knowledge, the respond was:
"Statues in Orthodox , are rejected , it 's just a fetish,
and is not related to the Orthodox faith
Because, if we compare between the statue and
the concept of the icon
We find that there is no correlation
Because the Orthodox icon in orthodoxy , is a page in the
Holy Bible, or evangelical Verse, Written by colors, Or
it reflect biography of one of the saints.
As for Jesus Christ
The icon of Jesus Christ, Has a deep theological reading ,
for example , :Icon of Christ Pantocrator.
And we supposed that the Orthodox Church in Syria , is aware of
the seriousness of this work at the theological level."
The other side of the issue, related to Russian ambitions in
Syria and generally in the East
Thus the dispute between the Ecumenical Patriarch and
Patriarch of Moscow, is the biggest proof
The situation in Syria easier for the Russians, Because the keys of
the country has become in their
hands, and one of the most important means to control, or occupation, is
through the use of religion, and exploitation of the name of Jesus Christ
to promote their dirty plans.
And Cherubim Monastery ' who
is an Orthodox Monastry', has a history with Russians,
since before the year 2000
Where there were many attempts to control over the monastery
To the extent that Russians gave an order to the Syrian
regime for paving and improving the road to the monastery, where
the monastery was a center for
suspicious meetings.
At that time, there
was no monks in the monastery. But they made him an orphanage for nearly 15 children.
in fact this
a large story,
maybe in other
time we can
talk about it.
With this we conclude, that the establishment of the statue
or the so-called statue of Christ, is one of the steps to complete the Russians
control over Syria, on the blood of
Syrians.
