The persecution of Christianity has came about and is going on everywhere, all over the world and including, sadly, within so called Christian countries…
As a Christian, and a genuine believer in God and Christ, I’m appalled in the way my trust continues to be dismantled and hollowed out by multiple means by governments and even the churches themselves within the world and the west is far more destructive to Christianity than the east…
Yet so many say that the actual persecution has formed in the Eastern and Western Asia areas of the world. I would argue that the actual persecution of Christianity started out with earnest in Rome, centuries ago, when it set aside the original bases of authentic faith, and this has persevered on to this day and age….it has in fact grown in its degradation of true Christianity…
In the West there is no Greater Orthodoxy there are small attempts at Greek/Russian Orthodoxy Religion, but….solely these are from Eastern European international locations whom have fortunately stored their liturgies moderately intact out of western destruction and whom opened their church buildings to the people and teach…
With the persecution of Russia we will see even more hatred toward Russian Orthodoxy, as we are seeing even the Greek Orthodox bending to its master and turning its head aside, for it is scared and only wants to survive. That is not the way God would have it…
As for ruling authorities no longer need to use church as a repression medium for its goals and now just bodily persecute a masses of people. Changing the language and the legal guidelines is adequate over time to take away a tradition from existence. As shown fully by Ukraine and the ministration of the western manipulations…
Which leads me to assume that the lengthy dwelling within the west that evil has enjoyed, means it has had ample time to see its evil deeds come to fruition due to its ability for ignoring time as we see it. We grasp at a material and not spiritual existence…

A good read about this subject:
Says Archbishop Vigano in his declaration on Ukraine: “Perhaps Providence has ordained that Moscow, the Third Rome, will today in the sight of the world take on the role of κατέχον (2 Thess. 2:6-7), of eschatological obstacle to the Antichrist.” The author of this interesting article below criticizes Archbishop Vigano for having political motives, without first explaining that both Pope Francis and Pat. Bartholomew have already displayed, not only their political motives in this current war but also their complete alliance with the New World Order and the powers who have as a goal to eliminate Christian faith as we know it and traditional Christian values, such as the concept of the family.
