Father Artsrun MikaelyanIt writes:.
"The historical path of our people has been rocky, often bloody. Pressure of the empires, horrors and wars of genocide, with catastrophic consequences.
Church, which has been injected to the avis of faith, hope and love for more than 1,700 years. Today, our country has many unresolved issues and only in the conditions of internal solidarity it is possible to face all this. When internal solidarity is fatal, great "luxury" we allow us to be a target of hatred of the Church of Christ, the advocate and the defender of unity and love.
The fact that the church targets reasonable people's bewilderment, why do they do it for a long time?
The Armenian man, where he is living, is sealed in the Muron, who is cooked in Holy Etchmiadzin, and he says the same "Father Our Father," he kneels the same hymn, and listens the same to the same floral cross. This is a spiritual evidence of a spiritual identity that cannot belong to any regime, party or current. It belongs to us all of us.
The church is beyond the time, from individuals and human accounting. The Church keeps its doors open before everyone and is ready to go as a brave shepherd to seek and find a merciful father from a distance of the returning son from afar.
The mission and power of this 1700-year-old sacred structure has probably made a fear of various forces that have targeted the church at different times.
And today, when the danger of uncertainty and split in our national life, we have no right to look at each other with a kitty eye, because "every kingdom of himself is destroyed, and he cannot stand." - Matthew 12:25.
We need to understand what it means to be one body, members of the Church, and Armenians born from the same basin. We must realize that when "one member is in pain, all members are in pain with him." - 1 Cor. 12:26. And today, as living members of that body, we are called to tighten our spiritual root, holy church, to remove hate speech, gossip, and mourning, and instead of increasing our "God God, but for peace." - 1 Cor. 14:33.
