УКРАЇНСЬКЕ ЦЕРКОВНЕ ПИТАННЯ В КОНТЕКСТІ ПРОТИСТОЯННЯ "ПАРАЛЕЛЬНИХ ПРАВОСЛАВНИХ СВІТІВ"

Abstract

The article describes the main provisions of the idea of an independent Ukrainian church in the 21st century. The age-old confrontation of Constantinople and Moscow in the context of world diptychial primacy is explored. Historically, the proclamation of a new autocephaly has been accompanied, to a greater or lesser extent, by church turmoil. This was manifested in the dissolution of the Eucharistic communion, the interruption of mutual prayerful commemoration of the Primate of the churches, the postponement of the great All-Orthodox Council or pre-council meetings in the twentieth century, and all kinds of political pressure on the part of individual states-bearers of Orthodox culture.After recognizing the autocephaly of the Ukrainian Church, the longstanding historical confrontation between Fanar and Moscow is gaining momentum. There is a great schism in the Ecumenical Church, which is caused by the formation of two camps, the watershed of which, officially, is today the church issue of Ukraine. Therefore, the article analyzes the current state of separation of the Ecumenical Orthodox Church in the context of the Ukrainian church issue. The content of the position of each of the Local Churches concerned is revealed.At the Council of Crete 2016, the Local Churches unambiguously reaffirmed the postulate of the supremacy of the Council in resolving any controversial or complex church issues. Definitely, the process of proclaiming a new autocephalous church is an event of worldwide proportions.Thomas' proclamation to the Orthodox Church of Ukraine is a well-established fact. It is important that it should only help to build a new Ukrainian nation, but that is not its main task. The main thing is that in pursuit of the national, the Church does not cease to be a Church, so that it does not lose itself. The Church is not only a structure, it is a house of God in which people seek peace of mind, and can be accessed by all who live in Ukraine, regardless of nationality.There is clearly no brotherly Christian love in the maturing great schism. Therefore, world Orthodoxy places great hopes on the possible gathering of the Heads of Churches to discuss the Pan-Orthodox situation. Further, either consensus and recognition of Ukrainian autocephaly, or a major global split.
