Nope. They have been completely destroyed to the ground after fall of Russia, only to be fully rebuilt by jews to be used for recruitment for WW2, and later for many similar mobilization purposes throughout of WW2 and later. This is why they stay away from LGBT crap and promote patriotism.
Church is wherever two or more are gathered in His name.
You don't need church.
I disagree. The church has been a vital part of every healthy European community for millenia. What's stopping us from forming our own, based on the teachings of the earlier churches before they were compromised by the kikes?
To the people who believe in Christ but think you don't need church:
Hebrews 10:25:
And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.
There are a lot of false teachers out there, but you are allowing the false teachers to separate you from your brothers. How can you say that you love your brothers if you refuse to meet with them? Find a place without the false teachers. They are out there.
James 2:17-20
Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?
Come and worship with us, brother.
The majority of people clearly need religion.
Literally none of that is true. Also, Orthodox Christianity doesn't extend to just Russia. It's church isn't even the oldest, or the most expansive. In fact, it's only a slice of one of several Orthodox denominations. If you don't want to join the Russian church then just pick another one.
Downvote because what I said is true and it's recorded in history. Go and do your own research, don't accuse someone of lying just because you don't like what they say. All Orthodox churches have been infiltrated, including the Greek one which is the first people will jump to defend in this argument.
You just moved the goalposts. Now it's all Orthodox Churches? And the bar now is that they've merely been infiltrated? While yes that is true, every denomination of Christianity period has seen infiltration by the powers that be throughout all of history, including the present day. What makes Orthodoxy unique is that none of these attempts have succeeded in subverting it. That shouldn't be surprising though as Christ himself said that The Gates of Hell would not Triumph against his Church.
