The Times and Works of a Partridge that Steals Young Birds from Another’s Nest
“The partridge cries out gathering a brood that is not its own”
Jeremiah 17:11
The Prophet Jeremiah writing about the destruction of Jerusalem and the sin and punishment of Judah uses a common belief of the Jews of his times- that a partridge gathers up as his own another’s baby birds- to warn about the ransacking of foreign nests.
Today’s ecumenists, using the name of Orthodoxy, gather to themselves a flock and “travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when they have succeeded, they make them twice as much a child of hell as they are” Matthew 23:15.
They offer to others the pseudo-Orthodoxy which they have adopted in place of the true Orthodoxy we received from the Holy Apostles and Church Fathers.
The brood- human souls- belong to Christ and only in the full truth of Holy Orthodoxy can anyone become a member of the Church that Christ established with His Holy Blood.
