Botezul in BOR

[Antoni0]

Patriarch Tikhon wrote, 'The late Patriarch Gregory VII, under pressure from the Lutheran government in Finland, agreed, even in regards to Holy Pascha [to change the calendar], disregarding the anathemas placed on such changes by the holy Councils (the First and Antiochian, canon 1 and the seventh Apostolic canon). Celebrating at the same time as the heretics, and even with the Jews, "is an exception to the rule" [they claim], though the holy Church strove in every way to avoid this coincidence when it established Holy Pascha, 'in order not to celebrate with the Jews.' Now the Finnish government persecuted both physically and morally those faithful Orthodox monastics and laypeople who desired to obey God more than men (Acts 5:29), ("Sorrowful Epistle," Church News, No. 11-12, 1925).'

A se observa ca nu numai in Romania a fost o rezistenta impotriva schimbarii calendarului!
