the Main temple of the Russian Armed forces is being built in honor of the 75th anniversary of Victory in the great Patriotic war. With him revived the tradition to build temples in honor of the glorious victories. A special relationship to the temple the believers who came to God in adulthood, consciously. One of them – the General-the major in resignation Alexander Cherkasov.
At the time, he was in a long military mission in Africa. When he returned home, fell ill, two years lay. Recovered, now working at the Military University. And another 9 years by the initiative group of the regional public organization of veterans of the power structures “Omophorion – Suvorov call.” This group deals with the restoration of the temple of St. Basil the Great, built by Alexander Suvorov in memory of his father Vasily Ivanovich in the village Citys Suzdal district of Vladimir region.
Over the years, activists have achieved many things. The Architectural and historical complex of Generalissimo Suvorov in Kitise. Soon will be a monument to the great commander. Reborn Church. Alexander, probably like no one else can appreciate the significance and scale of an event such as the Main temple of the Armed forces in the Park “Patriot”. Here’s how he says it:
– I think it’s important for Russia and its Armed forces business. We all know about the temple of Christ the Savior, which was built in memory of the heroes of the Patriotic war of 1812. In our time to build the Main temple of the Russian Armed forces in honor of the Victory in the great Patriotic war is great, just the right solution.
Thanks to Sergey Shoigu, for his attitude to this initiative. Special respect to him, we, the people who came to faith, I believe, who understands that without spiritual strength we cannot hold.
If throughout our millennial history, at the terrible losses, large losses, we still went up and won, it was all thanks to the spiritual power of the Russian army. First and foremost, thanks to the Orthodox faith. Due to the fact that we appealed for help to the Lord, and he strengthened our forces. We appealed for help to the blessed virgin, and she covered for their protection.
Why Russian soldiers are not afraid and are not afraid of death? It comes from the gospel: fear not, if you take a body, if you die, the main thing – the soul does not kill. As well as from the New Testament is: there is no greater love than “to give his stomach for his friends.”
Look, only in our army in history, from ancient times to the present day, one after the other sacrifice. The fire went to a wounded comrade to bear. Killed themselves at the same time. The power in spiritual strength, fortress, and they are in the Orthodox faith. You know how GOVtell: in the trenches of unbelievers no.
what is today a Church is being erected, the heart rejoices. I know that many of my comrades, with whom in former years he served, sacrificed, are sacrificing and will sacrifice as possible to the temple. I participated in some activities held under the supervision of the head of the Charity Fund “Resurrection” Alexander Nikolayevich Kanshina and Vladimir N. Bogatyrev, to raise funds for the construction of the temple. Consider this my duty.
welcome to rejoice and do everything possible to help this important business, it is very necessary to strengthen our country, Russia, for the future. Especially now that the situation is difficult on all fronts. Not only the coronavirus, there are also other problems.
material Strengthening combat power of our army (which, incidentally, is very actively done in recent years), it is good that we not forget the famous words of the Apostle Paul that still the spirit wins. Later classics is an Evangelical expression of altered it and used it, saying that victory on the battlefield, in the end, is determined by the state of mind of those who are fighting sheds blood.
And it’s very good that in the Russian Armed forces the Minister of defence, General staff, Main military-political control, command structure pay attention to it. Yes, and Supreme commander too, these issues are not forgotten.
