The Harmony of Monarchy and Russian Orthodox Christianity

The world is intrigued this year with the crowning of Charles III of the United Kingdom. Yet let us never forget the glorious reign of another monarchy, the Romanov Dynasty. A little more than 100 years ago, just three days before the start of the Great Fast, Tsar-martyr Nicholas II abdicated the throne, on March 15, 1917, bringing to an end to more than 300 years of Romanov rule. After the light of Pascha shone on the world that year, within a few months the enemies of Christ led Russia into a dark phase of its history, with the regicide of the anointed ruler.

 

Archpriest Constantine Desrosiers, Ph.D., brilliantly asserts that we must not fix our eyes exclusively on earthly political events, but rather on the Mystery of the Holy Spirit working within human history.

Troparion and Kontakion for the Emperor Paul I

Troparion

Give rest, O Lord, to the soul of Thy murdered Slave, the Emperor Paul I, and by his prayers grant us in our present days of deception and fear wisdom in our deeds, patience in our sufferings and salvation of our souls with Thee.

 

Kontakion

Look down, O Lord, at Thy faithful intercessor for all small, poor and deprived ones, the Emperor Paul I,

and by his holy prayers grant, O Lord, speedy and true help to all who through him are begging it of Thee,

O Our God.
