"Archbishop" of the OCU Ivan (Eustratiy) Zoria on his Facebook page said that Filaret Denisenko is going through the hardest temptation in his life – with revenge, lies and power, and called for help to pass these tests so that he will stop fighting the OCU.
Eustratiy Zoria compared the current position of Filaret Denisenko to that of “abbess” Varvara (secular name – Vera Boronina), a long-term devoted housekeeper of the Kyiv Patriarchate, who, due to old age and illness, could no longer fulfill her duties.
As previously reported, Filaret said that Dumenko is the illegal head of the OCU, and God's judgment awaits him.
