If you’re a young White Christian with political motivations, watch out for these globalist soul-sucking “influencer” programs.

They hate you and just use you for marketing until it’s time to dispose of you.

🇨🇾 Cypriot Archbishop Chrysostomos announced over the weekend that he has suspended 12 priests from his diocese (but not the whole Cypriot Church) for not receiving the abortion-tainted COVID vaccine.

The needle-rape advocate (pictured left) is a controversial figure in Cyprus. He was implicated in a scandal back in 2019 when he assisted a Malaysian conman and money launderer named Jho Low in obtaining Cypriot citizenship. Low, in turn, donated €300,000 to Chrysostomos' bank account.

The archbishop also famously ordered the bulldozing of a row of historical homes in Nicosia's old town because they blocked the view of a cathedral project he had commissioned, angering many Cypriots. He could have built the cathedral elsewhere, but decided it would be a better idea to annoy the locals. A decade earlier, he branded them as "cry-babies".

Chrysostomos also supports the terrorist organisation in Ukraine called the OCU, which has a record of violently assaulting priests and women and vandalising Orthodox churches.

🇵🇸 "The threat of our expulsion from the Holy Land is real" – Patriarch of Jerusalem speaks out against Zionist attacks on Christians

— "The Primate of the Jerusalem Orthodox Church spoke about the threats to the Christian presence in Jerusalem and throughout the Holy Land, the website of the DECR ROC reports.

🇨🇾 Cypriot hierarch: euthanasia is a combination of murder and suicide

— "The Cypriot House Human Rights Committee began a debate last week about euthanasia becoming legal for terminally-ill patients.

MP Irene Charalambidou, who heads the committee, commented that the choice is between a serene pain-free and respectable death and a crucially painful one at the last stage of terminally-ill patients, reports in-cyprus.

However, the Orthodox Church, to which about 75% of the Cypriot population belongs, stands against euthanasia.

Speaking on Cypriot television last week, His Eminence Metropolitan Isaiah of Tamassos explained that the Church’s stance is well known and can’t simply be changed, reports SigmaLive."

🇵🇸 Jerusalem Christians: ‘We shrunk from 20% to 2% of population due to Israeli violence’

— "As tensions escalate in Jerusalem in the wake of Israel's latest wave of evicting Palestinians  from the city, it is important to note that Israel's targeting of Arab civilians has not been limited to Muslims alone. It has also reached the Palestinian Christians of Jerusalem, which prompted Christian leaders to let out a cry of distress: “Our existence is shaky and our future is in danger.”

According to figures released in 2017, Jerusalem is has a population of 901,300 people, made of around 342,000 Arab citizens in East Jerusalem, nearly 345,000 Jews in West Jerusalem, and 215,000 Jewish settlers in East Jerusalem. The Christian presence is limited to 15,800 people (12,600 Arab Christians and 3,200 non-Arab Christians)."
