St
Seraphim of Vyritsa also says some prophetic words about China, another important rising power in the world, some of them mirthful,
. . .
The Orient will be
baptized in Russia. The whole heavenly world is praying for the enlightenment
of the Orient.
And
some of them woeful,
. . .
A time will come when
Russia will be torn apart. First they will split her up, then they will start
to plunder her wealth. The West will in every way try to further Russia’s
destruction and hand over her eastern part to China. The Far East will fall
into the hands of the Japanese. Siberia will fall to the Chinese, who will
start to settle in Russia, marry Russians and eventually, through cunning and
craft, occupy all Siberia as far as the Urals. When China tries to go further,
the West will oppose it.

As
was the case with his words about Russia, we are beginning to see some of them
fulfilled today.
China
is indeed being ‘baptized in Russia’ into the Holy Orthodox Church:
Orthodox students from the
People’s Republic of China can now begin to prepare for their future ministries
in China in the theological schools of the Russian Orthodox Church. Agreement
on the issue came as a result of the sixth session of the Russian-Chinese
working group on contacts and cooperation in the religious sphere held in
Beijing on Thursday, the Vice Chairman of the Department of External Church
Affairs (DECR) of the Russian Orthodox Church Archpriest Nikolai Balashov told RIA-Novosti.

Ne’ertheless,
the mayliness (potential) to turn on Russia and the Orthodox and join fully
with the Globalist Elite is still very real:
. . .
It
is possible that China contains, for development, an alternative of
multipolarity to the Washington Consensus of open-market policies promoted by
the IMF, World Bank, and the US Treasury, but the way is dangerous. The Chinese
bourgeoisie is growing in power and therefore in its capacity for immorality,
and to follow their lead would be a worthless endeavour.
Bourgeois
culture, spiritually threatening to assimilate the powers that be in China to
the global (Western) élite, is a challenge for the Church itself. Wenzhou,
sometimes described as ‘China’s Jerusalem’,2 is a nouveau riche city with
Christian bosses who rose from rags to riches; it features
a capitalist Boss Christianity whose prosperous lay leaders believe
they serve God by making money, running churches as entrepreneurs and running
factories as Christian enterprises drawing poor labourers to the promise of a
better life in Christianity. It looks like the religion of Americanism, a
nihilism that grew into the global capitalism of the post-Cold War world.
Will China go with a Wenzhou Boss Christianity, oriented toward the business of
manufacturing outsourced from the West, and the seeking of power and glory
through commerce? or will it go with a Christianity oriented toward the
Eurasian continent, and the voluntary laying down of power to build neighbours
up? Chinese Christianity must align not with high-finance imperialism, which
breathes the spirit of Antichrist, but with those who like Burkinabé
president Thomas Sankara in the 1980s are resisting that neoliberal
disorder’s supremacy by struggling for independence from it. Only thus will the
Church be the spiritual life of a China that takes the shape prædestined for it
by God, a China that leads other nations by the strength of Christ in a common
resistance against the geopolitical powers of Satan. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood,
but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness
of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
