THE PAPISM OF FANAR AND THE AUTOCEPHALITY OF THE MACEDONIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH – ARCHDIOCESE OF OHRID

Аннотация

Ever since the (self)proclamation of the MOC’s autocephaly in July 1967 at the Fourth
Church-People’s Assembly in Ohrid, the circumstances in the orthodox ecumene have never
been more unfavorable for overcoming its real undefined ecclesiological and canonical
status. The fact is that the MOC-AO is not in a canonical and eucharistic assembly with the
orthodox ecumene and in that sense it is in a way not a complete church. Recognition of its
autocephaly will essentially mean canonical and eucharistic entry into space orthodoxy and
representation in that assembly with and through the head of its first hierarch in honor and
dignity. Today, the real and factual orthodox ecumenical is divided into two parts primarily
and essentially as a result of the efforts of Fanar, who has a strong (geo) political support for
it, to impose its status within the space orthodoxy as eastern, as orthodox pope. In this way,
the ecumenical orthodox order of catholicity would be thoroughly destroyed. This means that
all autocephalous оrthodox local synods / churches have completely equal status and make
decisions in the assembly. In doing so, the bishop of Fanar is admitted in a certain way that he
has a church primacy in honor and dignity, and not in at all. Fanar seeks for himself a primacy
precisely in power and which will practically contain all the prerogatives and powers equal to
/ equivalent to the prerogatives and powers of the Roman bishop, ie the pope.
