By one's deeds you may know him


vladimir putin birthday

October 7th, 2017, was Vladimir Putin's 65th birthday and many wishes of health and happiness to him. May God gift him with all that he deserves.

May God gift him, indeed, since Putin is a man with a variety of interesting qualities and activities.

Patriarch Krill of the Russian Orthodox church endorsed Putin's election.  He stated that Putin's terms were a "miracle of God" during the election of 2012.  Since collapse of USSR and lifted oppression of faithful believers, Patriarch Krill has joined an alliance with state.

The Church even supported Putin's decision to move into Crimea and Ukraine.

Putin is apparently a believer with his religious awakening occurring after serious life-threatening event in his personal life in 1990s. In his early years, his mother had baptized him secretly when a baby and took him to services (held in secret). 

His mother gave him his baptismal cross before a trip to Israel, and asked him to have it blessed.  "I did as she said and then put the cross around my neck.  I have never taken it off since."

  Putin's confessor (according to rumors) is Russian Orthodox Bishop Tikhoshevkunov.

Putin is also actively involved in protection of rare species as Chairman of Russian Geographical Society Board of Trustees.
 

Forget about Syria!  

Forget about Crimea and Ukraine!

Forget about Iran and his support of their nuclear program!

Greeting Iran's leader

Forget about his past as head of the KGB!

Forget about all his choices! He wears a crucifix and has Russian Orthodox Church support after all.

Yes, may God show him the Christian way, whether or not he follows.  May God grant him deserved fruits of his labor. May God provide Putin with an appropriate reward for his many many works.

If Vladimir Putin lived in USA, he would qualify for Medicare. Putin could move into our retirement community. Does he like golf? We do not provide horse back rides.

Putin is now 70 yrs. old. This is a repost from Oct. 10, 2017. To know his choices, one must know his character.

  1. He is not 70 until October, I will be 70 before he is.
    I don't think God will be looking too kindly at the man who is bombing and killing innocent people just because he wants (not needs) their country.

    1. I turned 70 in December. When I turned 60, one day I was okay. The day after 59 and I turned 60, I was way old.

  2. AHHH, so well stated, even in the past. Thanks for bringing it forward. A logical man cannot find ANY logic in this man's thinking, especially considering lie itself. Who shells and bombs apartment buildings, what threat are they? SICK.
    You stated it well.
    Sherry & jack, sad thinking of life in the Ukraine.

    1. I pulled this out of my archive to be up and reading. This was back when Syria was bombing everyone.

    1. That is so true. Wearing a crucifix does not ensure salvation.

  4. In the picture of him greeting Iran's leader he has a little of that forward tilt like tRUMP has. He probably wears lifts like the orange buffoon.

    1. Oh, yes. When I wrote this, Syria was under attack by its despot. That mess moved on to Ukraine.

  6. Too many hide behind a church and expect the followers to follow them. Too many use religion as a way to bamboozle people into believing they are good people. Deeds are more important than some purported following of one religion or another.

    1. All true. Their loss, and their responsibility.

  7. Ah well, if you got religion you are forgiven anything. I know God is a big thing with many Americans but I will never understand how so much evil in the world, wherever that may be, can be hidden under the mantle of 'righteousness'.

    1. If you truly have forgiveness for your sins, you are responsible for what you done.

  9. Evil and deception. His nation will suffer and go hungry, because Putin's ambition outdoes their needs.

  10. "Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruits; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit." He is not hiding the fruit, that's for sure.
