"Mr. Pashinyan, Distinguished Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia,
The Armenian Apostolic Church is a living structure, and the Armenian clergymen are the servants of that sacred institution. We serve God and our faithful people. On the way to our service, we have certain slips, mistakes, and omissions, we function sins (hopefully not unforgivable). "Whoever is a man who longs and not be to sin," says the Bible.
Unlike humans, God sees us not only from the outside, but also from the inside, knowing us and what being. By the way, he knows whoever is all you and what being. If we, too, to prove to God, let us have nothing to convince God. God knows our not only the past and present, but also the future of the coming.
I am also a man, you are a man. Come, I do not judge you or anyone from you, nor will you, me or any of my brothers. Let us leave God, and we use the right to criticize ourselves.
You say that you are a believer and a follower of the Armenian Apostolic Church. I don't want to say anything about being your Christian, because I want to believe in your word.
I want to believe in your assurance that you are a believer who is a believer in the Armenian Church. I have any questions in this direction.
It is not a follower of the Armenian Church, but there are several major preconditions.
1. Baptism. No one knows you are baptized or no. Do you have a Holy Baptism certificate? What about this?
2. Adoption of the Diocese transferred to the doctrine of the Armenian Church, as well as the apostolic seed.
3. Because you have long been adults and live with a woman, then a sacred marriage dedicated to the Order of Holy and Church, which is one of the sacred counsel of the Church. What about this?
4. Obligation to raise children Christianally, according to the teaching and doctrine of the Armenian Apostolic Church. As it is already clear, the first of the Christian life and the first to be the Armenian Church is the only birth of the Christmas from the holy basin, that is, holy baptism. Your children are baptized. What about this?
5. Regular participation of the Holy Liturgy and acceptance of the sacred sacrament. Would you say when you last attended the Holy Liturgy, make a confession and received a sacred sacrament?
There are other criteria, but I will not have this noteworthy.
In the light of these main criteria, you decide whether you are a follower of the Armenian Church or not. If yes, then, to criticize the following churches as follows the same Church, we have the right to see us to be faithful to us, just as many other followers of our apostolic Church. However, there is a smell of your notes, so it seems that your goal is obviously different.
The majority of the citizens of the Republic of Armenia, which run in the previous parliamentary elections, gave your political force to form a parliamentary majority and form a government. I'm sure you know your powers and responsibilities better than me. Let me remind only that you do not have the right to intervene in the interior of the Church.
But you have the authority or responsibility to give an adequate or at least an answer to the Azerbaijani sultan Ilham Aliyev. The majority of the citizens of the Republic of Armenia are not waiting for you to organize a "spiritual meeting" in the squares, but it is waiting to listen to your answer to Ali's recent barbarism-slanders.
"Azerbaijanis should not see the face of the Armenian border guard," he said, "As for us (ima, Azerbaijan), neither an external operator will be in our territory nor rent."
And the daily morning and evening service in the churches, especially the Sunday Liturgy, is "a spiritual meeting" for the believer, first with God, and then with his fellow believer. You can also participate in them if you wish. "
