Asréracht Críst! Asréracht Hé-som co dearb!
Christ is Risen! He Is Truly Risen!
Tá Críost ar éirígh! Go deimhin, tá Sé ar éirígh!
Tha Crìosd air èiridh! Gu dearbh, tha e air èiridh!
Atgyfododd Crist! Atgyfododd in wir!
Christus Surrexit! Vere Surrexit!
Christos anesti! alithos anesti!
Christos voskresye! Voistinu voskresye!

On Easter Morning it was traditional for Clergy to make a public confession.
So here is Maelruain's 2005 Confession:
I am not particularly saintly.  Iask forgiveness for the times when I followed my own desires and failed to follow Jesus Christ so that I might learn humility and sanctity.  I ask forgiveness for the times I pridefully have thought that my personal actions would accomplish much.  I ask forgiveness for the times I have failed to do the most valuable thing I can ever do, which is to point to Jesus by Word, Thought and Act.

 "Jesus" means "Leader." Anyone who claims the title of leader, must follow Jesus' lead or be guilty of blasphemy.  Jesus is merciful and forgiving.  Jesus argued with the majority.  His way is not the way of the powers of this world, but the way of Charity.  Christ died that we might live eternally with Him in His Kingdom.  No worldly government's actions of any kind can ransom us from Hell and buy our Salvation.

Christians are in the world, but not of it.  We acknowledge only one leader: God, the Holy Trinity.  

In Chapter Eight of the First Book of Kings we read that the Jews desired to have a king like other nations.  Prior to that time God had been sufficient for them but they wanted a king "over us, And we also will be like all nations: and our king shall judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles for us."  God said that they had rejected Him as their king and that the mundane king would "take your sons, and put them in his chariots, and will make them his horsemen, and his running footmen, to run before his chariots, And he will appoint of them to be his tribunes, and his centurions, and to plough his fields, and to reap his corn, and to make him arms and chariots.  Your daughters also he will take to make him ointments, and to be his cooks, and bakers. And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your best oliveyards, and give them to his servants.  Moreover he will take the tenth of your corn, and of the revenues of your vineyards, to give to his eunuchs and servants. Your servants also, and handmaids, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, he will take away, and put them to his work. Your flocks also he will tithe, and you shall be his servants."  Moreover, because they chose a man over God,  when they cried out against their human idol, "the Lord will not hear you in that day, because you desired unto yourselves a king."

No king, No worldly leader will ever say these words of Jesus or ask as little as He does:
"This is my commandment, that you love one another, as I have loved you.  Greater love than this no man hath, than a man lay down his life for his friends.  You are my friends if you do the things that I command you. " John 15:13-14

No Government will say of those that offend it:
"Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do."  Christ  said this  concerning all of us: for He Who is blameless died for our errors.

No Government can earn us a Godly Life much less an eternal life with God and His Saints.  Yet Christ did this and offers it to all who come to Him.

The Celtic Orthodox Christian Church is not a church of empires or kings except the Kingdom of God. 

May Almighty God: God the Father, Unbegotten; God the Son, Onlybegotten;  and God the Holy Spirit, from the Father Proceeding;  the  True King Whose Kingdom and Dominion abides for eternity abide with you and sustain you throughout all ages of ages.
