Metropolitan Amfilohije's Final Words: Resurrection Victory Over Death
The post shares the verses with which the late Metropolitan Amfilohije, Archbishop of Cetinje, Metropolitan of Montenegro and the Littoral, and Exarch of the Holy Throne of Peć, concluded his final address. The lines come from Saint Peter II Petrović Njegoš's work "The Ray of the Microcosm" and speak of Christ's Resurrection conquering death.
The accompanying video summary proclaims that death bows and is defeated in the land that glorifies its Savior, identifying this testimony with the Church of Saint Peter on the cliff. It states that the Montenegrin people have returned to God and the Church of God after eighty years of wandering through hunger, godlessness, fratricide, and deicide.
The message declares that the time has come to return to God and, through God, to one another, thereby restoring the holy things that the ancestors built into the people and their historical being.
