Hulstro-Mikun Churches Ordered to Cut Off all Foreign Ties
January 3798, Ninth Year of the Mizuki Era
All major Hosian leaders, such as this Selucian Partiarchalist Bishop, will now be appointed by the Imperial Family and not by their foreign metropoles. Foreign missionaries are banned, and all Churches must register with the Imperial Family for approval before preaching on or promoting any specific doctrine.
In Worship of the Imperial Household, we Dedicate this Article to the Divine Empress - Witnessing troubles with religious instability aboard, the Sovereign of the Eastern Sun has decided to increase her control over the Hosian community - lest a rift appear between the Hosian Faith and the Imperial Cult. Therefore, the Sovereign of the Eastern Sun has announced legalisation intended to create "Patriotic Churches" with no attachments to foreign powers. This is intended to prevent the Hosian community acting as a nest of anti-government sentiment, undermining the official Imperial Cult.
This comes at a time when Hosians abroad are increasingly attempting to organise politically and interfere with the policies of various sovereign nations. In order to defend the Imperial Cult while avoiding the pitfalls of a Malivian-Lodamunese approach to religion, our Divine Sovergin has decided to take control of the situation and bring her guidance directly into the everyday affairs of her Hosian subjects. Perhaps in time they will forget their invisible God and worship only the Divine Empress, who shows them such benevolence.
No Hulstro-Mikun delegates will be allowed to leave for the Patriarchal Churches Council.
J4C0B65 wrote: I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and Terra, of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one "Lord Jesus Christ", the Only Begotten Son of "God", born of the Father before all ages. "God from God", Light from Light, true "God" from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from "heaven", and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under "Pontius Pilate", he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, selucian and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.
We believe in one God, Almighty Father to Us All,
Who created Terra and Caelum, all that is visible and invisible,
(Who led Ariel to Holy Yishelem, and shielded his people.)
And we believe in one Lord, Eliyahu Hosios,
Pure and Holy Spirit of God,
Created with Terra before all ages,
Announced through prophesy,
Holy Word of God,
through the virgin Sarahea in man incarnate,
Who is light to our world,
True servant of the one true God,
Who called us, the Pious, to follow His word,
And was exiled to the desert by vengeful man,
Who, persecuted even in exile,
Strengthened His resolve, and did His duty,
Even in the face of death.
For forty days did He pray in His despair,
And then ascended into heaven.
And on the third day He did descend to hell to bear our sins.
Returned triumphant, then disappeared into Hiding,
According to scripture.
Who, with divine Grace,
Sent to us the Light of God,
Which illuminated His Word to the prophets of old,
To remain with us to light the way,
And give us strength to believe,
In memory of those who came before,
We believe that he has life eternal,
And that at the end of times,
He shall return to judge living and dead,
To be Saviour of Terra,
And that His Kingdom shall continue,
In time and eternity.
Until such a time, we hold true to His teachings,
Hear and live His Annunciation,
In the Community of the Pious,
One holy, apostolic and ecumenical Church,
We acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins,
In the hope that we shall live again,
In life eternal.
Amen.
We believe and declare the faith passed on to us by the Apostles and the Church Fathers, the same faith that the Holy Fathers proclaimed at Auroria in the Year of Our Lord 533. We believe in Elyon, one God and the uncreated Creator of all, and in one Spirit of God, first born of all creation and through whom all was made, of like substance as Elyon, so that the Spirit may rightfully be called God. We believe that the Spirit took flesh and was born of Virgin Sarahaea as Eliyahu of Yishelem, was persecuted by men and was Exiled to Hell for our sins, and went in Hiding in Heaven to return at the end of times. We believe Eliyahu founded His Church as the Community of the Pious to hear and live His Annunciation. We believe Eliyahu named Saint Michael as the Prince of the Apostles and Head of His Church, and that the Bishop of Čachtice is his legitimate descendant, whom all humanity must obey. We believe that Elyon's salvation through His Spirit was foretold by His prophets, as written in the Yeudi scriptures, and that His revelation was also granted to the righteous pagans of old, especially the ancient Deltarians. These we hold necessary and sufficient for salvation, being the faith that all men must hold to gain everlasting life in Heaven.
