Insult the Bishop: c55 of 85c
Fabricate charges: c6 of 7c
Only a synod
or council of bishops has the authority to charge a bishop: c9 of 30C & 141c
Attempting vengeance twice: c32 of 92c
By these ongoing attacks Abp.
Ofiesh suffered greatly during his lifetime: cXVII of 20c
The theft of his
good name since he reposed: c3 of 12c, cLXI of 92c
The theft of Our (Church)
good name: cLXXI of 85c and the concord of LXXII
They claim that Bp.
Sophronius suspended Abp. Ofiesh and later excommunicated Bp. Ignatius, months
after Ignatius walked away from this Church: c XI of 30c
We view all this
writing as a conspiracy (plot) against Abp. Ofiesh and this Church: c XVIII of
30c
If they can make Abp. Ofiesh appear to be the one who violated the
canons to such an extreme they can then attempt to show we do not exist as the
Church did not deserve to continue by his action. This presents a problem today
since no tribunal was called while he lived and he claimed publicly that "God
told him to marry" which no Orthodox tribunal questioned in his lifetime.
