Sigillion of 1756
The Sigillion of 1756 was issued against the New Calendar in 1756 by Ecumenical Patriarch Cyril V of Constantinople.
Text:
Cyrill, by the Grace of God Archbishop of Constantinople - New Rome and OEcumenical Patriarch
Due to new abominations, created by papists in regard to the question of changing our Pascha and Calendar.
Removal from the Church:
The most honorable clerics of our Great Church of Christ, other most God-fearing Hierarchs and most saintly hieromonks, singers in churches of our city, followers of Paul, who says: "If someone would annunciate contrary to what we annunciated to you, even that be an angel from heavens, anathema on him"; if he is a hierarch or a faithful one, to be removed from God, dammed, and after death not to rot but to dwell in eternal torment. Let stone and iron scatter and decay - they never and by no means. Let them inherit Giza's leprosy and Judas's hanging; let them dwell on earth like Cain, moaning and shivering; and let the wrath of God be on their heads and their share be with the traitor Judas and god-fighting Judeans; let the earth open and swallow them, like once Dathan and Abiron; let the Angel of God chase them with a sword in all the days of their lives, and let them succumb to all the damnations of the Patriarch and the Synod under the eternal removal and in torment of eternal fire.
Amen.

Text:
To all the genuine Christian children of the Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church of Christ of the East residing in Trigovysti and throughout the world, be grace and peace and mercy from God Almighty.
No small turbulence overtook that ancient Ark, when, violently beset by billows, it floated upon the surface of the waters, and had not the Lord God remembered Noah and seen fit to still the water, there would have been no hope for it at all. Thus also in regard to the New Ark of our Church, against which misbelievers have launched an implacable war upon us, by means of these presents we have decided to leave a note that you may have in what is herein written the means of upholding and defending your Orthodoxy against such enemies more safely and surely.
But, lest the composition as a whole be weary to the simpler folks, we have decided to embody the matter in common language, wording it as follows: In Common Language From old Rome have come certain persons who learned there to wear Latin habits. The worst of it is how, from being Romans of Rumelia bred and born, they not only have changed their faith, but they even wage war upon the Orthodox dogmas and truths of the Eastern Church which have been delivered to us by Christ and the divine Apostles and the Holy Councils of the Holy Fathers.
Therefore, cutting off these persons as rotten members, we command:
1) That whoever does not confess with heart and mouth that he is a child of the Eastern Church baptized in Orthodox style, and that the Holy Spirit proceeds out of only the Father, essentially and hypostatically, as Christ says in the Gospel, shall be outside of our Church and shall be anathematized.
2) That whoever does not confess that at the Mystery of the Holy Communion the laity must also partake of both kinds, of the Precious Body and Blood, but instead says that he will partake only of the body, and that that is sufficient because therein is both flesh and blood, when as a matter of fact Christ died and administered each separately, and they who fail to keep such customs, let all such persons be anathematized.
3) That whoever says that our Lord Jesus Christ at the Mystic Supper had unleavened bread (made without yeast), like that of the Jews, and not leavened bread, that is to say, bread raised with yeast, let him depart far away from us and let him be anathema as one having Jewish views and those of Apollinarios and bringing dogmas of the Armenians into the Church, on which account let him be doubly anathema.
4) Whoever says that our Christ and God, when he comes to judge us, does not come to judge souls together with bodies, or embodied souls, but instead comes to sentence only bodies, let him be anathema.
5) Whoever says that the souls of Christians who repented while in the world but failed to perform their penance go to a purgatory of fire when they die, where there is flame and punishment, and are purified, which is simply an ancient Greek myth, and those who, like Origen, think that hell is not everlasting, and thereby afford or offer the liberty or incentive to sin, let him and all such persons be anathema.
6) That whoever says that the Pope is the head of the Church, and not Christ, and that he has authority to admit persons to Paradise with his letters of indulgence or other passports, and can forgive sins as many as a person may commit if such person pay money to receive from him indulgences, i.e. licences to sin, let every such person be anathema.
7) That whoever does not follow the customs of the Church as the Seven Holy Ecumenical Councils decreed, and Holy Pascha, and the Menologion with which they did well in making it a law that we should follow it, and wishes to follow the newly-invented Paschalion and the New Menologion of the atheist astronomers of the Pope, and opposes all those things and wishes to overthrow and destroy the dogmas and customs of the Church which have been handed down by our fathers, let him suffer anathema and be put out of the Church of Christ and out of the Congregation of the Faithful.
8) That ye pious and Orthodox Christians remain faithful in what ye have been taught and have been born and brought up in, and when the time calls for it and there be need, that your very blood be shed in order to safeguard the Faith handed down by our Fathers and your confession: and that ye beware of such persons as have been described or referred to in the foregoing paragraphs, in order that our Lord Jesus Christ may help you and at the same time may the prayer of our mediocrity be with all of you: amen.

ESPAÑOL:
Sigillion de 1756 El Sigillion de 1756 fue publicado contra el Nuevo Calendario en 1756 por el Patriarca Ecuménico Cirilo V de Constantinopla.
Texto:
Cirilo, por la gracia de Dios Arzobispo de Constantinopla - Nueva Roma y Patriarca Ecuménico.
Debido a nuevas abominaciones, creadas por los papistas con respecto a la cuestión de cambiar nuestra Pascua y Calendario.
Remoción de la Iglesia:
Los clérigos más honorables de nuestra Gran Iglesia de Cristo, los demás Jerarcas más temerosos de Dios y los hieromonjes más santos, cantantes en las iglesias de nuestra ciudad, seguidores de Pablo, que dice: "Si alguien anunciara lo contrario de lo que os anunciamos, hasta que sea un ángel de los cielos, anatema sobre él "; si es un jerarca o un fiel, ser alejado de Dios, condenado, y después de la muerte no pudrirse, sino vivir en el tormento eterno. Dejemos que la piedra y el hierro se dispersen y se descompongan; nunca ni de ninguna manera. Que hereden la lepra de Giza y el ahorcamiento de Judas; que moren en la tierra como Caín, gimiendo y temblando; y que la ira de Dios esté sobre sus cabezas y su parte sea con el traidor Judas y los judíos que luchan contra los dioses; que la tierra se abra y se los trague, como una vez Datán y Abirón; que el Ángel de Dios los persiga con una espada en todos los días de sus vidas, y que sucumban a todas las condenaciones del Patriarca y del Sínodo bajo la eterna remoción y en el tormento del fuego eterno. Amén.
El Sigillion de 1583 fue emitido contra el Calendario del Papa Gregorio XIII de Roma (Iglesia Católica Romana) por un concilio convocado en Constantinopla.
Texto:
A todos los hijos cristianos genuinos de la Santa Iglesia Católica y Apostólica de Cristo del Este que residen en Trigovysti y en todo el mundo, sea la gracia, la paz y la misericordia de Dios Todopoderoso.
Una turbulencia no pequeña se apoderó de esa antigua arca, cuando, violentamente asediada por las olas, flotó sobre la superficie de las aguas, y si el Señor Dios no se hubiera acordado de Noé y hubiera considerado conveniente aquietar el agua, no habría habido ninguna esperanza para ella. . Así también en lo que respecta al Arca Nueva de nuestra Iglesia, contra la cual los infieles han lanzado una guerra implacable contra nosotros, por medio de estos presentes hemos decidido dejar una nota para que tengáis en lo aquí escrito los medios para sostener y defender. su ortodoxia contra tales enemigos de manera más segura y segura.
Pero, para que la composición en su conjunto no les canse a los más sencillos, hemos decidido plasmar el asunto en un lenguaje común, redactándolo de la siguiente manera: En Lengua Común De la antigua Roma han venido ciertas personas que allí aprendieron a llevar hábitos latinos. Lo peor es cómo, de ser romanos de Rumelia criados y nacidos, no solo han cambiado su fe, sino que incluso hacen la guerra contra los dogmas ortodoxos y las verdades de la Iglesia Oriental que nos han sido entregados por Cristo y la divinidad. Apóstoles y los Santos Concilios de los Santos Padres.
1) Que quien no confiese de corazón y boca que es hijo de la Iglesia de Oriente bautizado al estilo ortodoxo, y que el Espíritu Santo procede sólo del Padre, esencial e hipostáticamente, como dice Cristo en el Evangelio, será fuera de nuestra Iglesia y será anatematizado.
2) Que quien no confiese que en el Misterio de la Sagrada Comunión los laicos también deben participar de ambas clases, del Precioso Cuerpo y de la Sangre, sino que dice que participará únicamente del cuerpo, y que eso es suficiente porque en él es tanto de carne como de sangre, cuando de hecho Cristo murió y se administró cada uno por separado, y los que no guarden tales costumbres, sean anatematizados.
3) Que quien diga que nuestro Señor Jesucristo en la Cena Mística comió pan sin levadura (hecho sin levadura), como el de los judíos, y no pan leudado, es decir, pan con levadura, que se vaya lejos de nosotros y que sea anatema como alguien que tiene puntos de vista judíos y apolinarios y que trae dogmas de los armenios a la Iglesia, por lo que sea doblemente anatema.
4) Quien diga que nuestro Cristo y Dios, cuando viene a juzgarnos, no viene a juzgar las almas junto con los cuerpos, o almas encarnadas, sino que viene a sentenciar sólo a los cuerpos, sea anatema.
6) Que quien diga que el Papa es la cabeza de la Iglesia, y no Cristo, y que tiene autoridad para admitir personas en el Paraíso con sus cartas de indulgencia u otros pasaportes, y puede perdonar pecados tantos como una persona pueda cometer si tal persona paga dinero para recibir de él indulgencias, es decir, licencias para pecar, que toda persona así sea anatema.
7) Que quien no siga las costumbres de la Iglesia como decretaron los Siete Santos Concilios Ecuménicos, y la Santa Pascua, y el Menologio con el que hizo bien en hacer una ley que debemos seguirla, y desee seguir la nueva- inventó el Pascualión y el Nuevo Menologio de los astrónomos ateos del Papa, y se opone a todas esas cosas y desea derrocar y destruir los dogmas y costumbres de la Iglesia que han sido transmitidos por nuestros padres, que sufra el anatema y sea expulsado de la Iglesia de Cristo y fuera de la Congregación de los Fieles.
8) Que vosotros, cristianos piadosos y ortodoxos, permanezcáis fieles en lo que os han enseñado y en lo que habéis nacido y criado, y cuando el tiempo lo requiera y sea necesario, que vuestra misma sangre sea derramada para salvaguardar la Fe entregada. por nuestros Padres y vuestra confesión: y que os cuidéis de las personas descritas o citadas en los párrafos anteriores, para que nuestro Señor Jesucristo os ayude y al mismo tiempo sea con la oración de nuestra mediocridad. todos ustedes: amén.
Hecho en el año del Dios-hombre 1583 (MDLXXXIII), año de acusación 12, 20 de noviembre [OS] Jeremías de Constantinopla Silvestre de Alejandría Sofronio de Jerusalén En presencia del resto de prelados del Concilio.
