Part of the efforts of the theomachist antichristian regimes to destroy the Church of Christ and supplant it with their official false “Church” is the infiltration of secret agents from the intelligence in high key positions in the True Orthodox Church, in order to take over, and on one hand to “transfer” entire communities to the official “church” with all their money, properties, businesses, and other wordly possessions, and on the other hand to remove the “undesirable elements” in individuals that prevent their cooperation with the authorities and their enlisting in the official “churches” spreading false doctrine to “de-fanatize and re-educate the faithful” “encapsulating and containing stubborn fanatics” and appointing the worst kind of persons in key positions.
Judging from his actions, Archbishop Laurus of sorrowfull memory, belongs to these secret agents. He took part in the plot to “encapsule” and isolate Archbishop Lazar Zhurbenko and to usurp Metropolitan Vitaly’s position to take over the ROCOR, and in the appointment of “Vladiko Anaxios” in spite of serious testimonies witnessing his sins, as those contained in the official letter of the Abbess of the Convent of the Ascension in Jerusalem, and the proclamation of ANAXIOS! by a respected deacon during the ceremony of entrhonement.
