Nation of Christ: God’s Government on Earth
Nation of Christ: God’s Government on Earth, by Pope Radislav I of Rome-Ruthenia, is a major presentation of the doctrine and social vision of the United Roman-Ruthenian Church.
The book begins with a foundational conviction: no earthly state, political movement, or national identity may claim the allegiance that belongs first to God. The true Nation of Christ is the Holy Church, a nation without political borders, united through the Apostolic faith and called to embody the Kingdom of God within an increasingly secular world.
Across more than twenty substantial chapters, Pope Radislav examines Church and state, Christian government, nationalism, justice and mercy, social and economic life, charity, the right to life, missionary work, public health, military ethics, Christian unity, Orthodox-Catholic tradition, and the duties of the faithful amid political and cultural conflict.
This is not merely a commentary on contemporary society. It is a comprehensive statement of Christian public doctrine and a call to live the faith openly, courageously, and consistently in every sphere of life.
Journey of Faith: The Holy Apostolic See
One Church. One legacy. A thousand years reborn.
Journey of Faith: The Holy Apostolic See unveils the compelling story of the United Roman-Ruthenian Church — an Apostolic communion rooted in ancient Orthodoxy and Old Catholicism. Spanning continents, centuries, and sacred traditions from Rome to Rus’, it weaves the spiritual and dynastic legacy of a living Church that bridges East and West. With newly restored photographs and updated reflections, this expanded edition affirms the sacred continuity of tradition in an age that desperately needs it. This is more than a chronicle — it’s an invitation to be part of the next chapter in a legacy that’s 2,000 years strong.
More about the book
Journey of Faith: The Holy Apostolic See presents the history, heritage, and continuing mission of the United Roman-Ruthenian Church and the Pontifical Imperial State of Rome-Ruthenia. This revised and expanded fourth edition begins with the Church’s foundation in AD 33 and follows its continuous Apostolic and jurisdictional succession through its ancient Roman, Syrian, Byzantine, Ruthenian, Anglican, and Old Catholic inheritances. It explains the establishment of the Church’s present united institutional form in 2023 and places that unification within a much longer historical narrative.
The volume explores the Church’s Apostolic succession, ecclesiastical institutions, liturgical rites, historic jurisdictions, and relationships with the wider Christian world. Drawing upon institutional records and archival materials, it introduces the people, events, traditions, and offices that have shaped the Church and its historic temporal patrimony.
Richly illustrated in full color with portraits, documents, heraldry, vestments, and ceremonial symbols, Journey of Faith also describes the contemporary religious, humanitarian, cultural, educational, and international work of the Roman-Ruthenian Church and State.
Written for clergy, scholars, members of the Church, and readers interested in Christian tradition and European ecclesiastical history, this volume serves both as an institutional history and as a record of a living spiritual tradition.
