S I X – A SPIRITUAL WARFARE

The Little and the Big Devils

According to current official Marxist doctrine, which, as has been illustrated, is only a disguise, neither God nor the Devil exists. Both are fancies. Because of this teaching, Christians are persecuted by the Communists.

However, the Soviet newspaper Kommunisma Uzvara (April 1974) reported that many atheist circles were created in Red Latvia’s schools. The name given the children in the fourth through sixth grades was “little devils,” while seventh graders were called “servants of the Devil.” In another school eighth graders had the name “faithful children of the Devil.” At the meeting the children came clothed as devils, complete with horns and tails.

Thus, it was forbidden to worship God, though devilworship was openly permitted and even encouraged among children of school age. This was the hidden objective of the Communists when they seized power in Russia.

In Vitebsk (U.S.S.R.), Zoia Titova, a member of the Communist youth organization, was caught practicing black magic.

Don’t you recognize your brother?” She answered, “You ask why? Father and Mother would turn over in their graves. You are serving Satan.” Though an official Orthodox bishop in the Soviet Union, he replied, “Perhaps I am Satan myself.”

Pravoslavnaia Rus writes,

The Orthodox cathedral in Odessa, so much loved by the Odessites, became the meeting place of Satanists soon after the Communists came to power…………………………………………………………………… Theygathered also in Slobodka-Romano and in Count Tolstoi’s former home.

Then follows a detailed account of Satanist masses said by deacon Serghei Mihailov, of the treacherous Living Church, an Orthodox branch established in connivance with the Communists. An attendant describes the Satanist mass as a “parody of the
