    Modern heresy concerning the Trinity?

    Understand this: when you light a fire, there is also three parts to it even though the flame is very much one. The is the flame itself, this is like the Holy Father who is the Source and Creator of all things. Then from the flame is born the Light and at exactly the same time together with the...

    Scripture and Tradition

    As for Holy Confession are we forgetting what the Scripture says of it? On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” After he said this, he showed them...

    Is Messianic Judaism the real unabridged form of Christianity?

    I wrote this article roughly a month ago or so, I hope it applies here :) The Holy Scriptures teach that Jesus Christ is the Living Icon of the Invisible God (Colossians 1:15), and we are all called to be icons of Christ (Genesis 1:27). For it is so that if we love others (who are images of...

    Dear fellow Orthodox: Experiences of God

    I would agree, for us its an 'add on' we don't have it naturally; we put on the Divine Essence through Christ Jesus as a Garment to be exact. yours in Christ Jesus, George

    Is Messianic Judaism the real unabridged form of Christianity?

    Interesting post vanshan, anyhow something to note: In very early Apostolic times the three major political parties (or sects) in Judaism: Pharisees, Sadducees and Christians (called Nazarenes by the Pharisees who took over Judaism).

    Two Questions:

    Actually Adam and Eve were never deified, rather they 'messed up' and didn't get a chance to eat of the Tree of Life (become deified). I hope this helps :) In Christ's love, George

    Is Messianic Judaism the real unabridged form of Christianity?

    Does the Dove of God perch in the Cross above their Iconistasis? Does the Eternal Holy Light burn in their souls? Is walking in to one of their Churches like walking into a furnace of Peaceful Loving Fire; is the Eternal Dazzling Presence of the Lord God most High there? I ask only...

    Dear fellow Orthodox: Experiences of God

    You speak the Truth, at that point is when one's soul has been entirely rebuilt of Christ; at that point one shares in the Essence of God the Father in the same God the Son and the God the Holy Spirit does; at that point we are completely One with the Father through the Son. This is Salvation!

    Dear fellow Orthodox: Experiences of God

    God is Love (1 John 4:8). Has anybody here thought of their love for Christ God and tasted Holy Communion in their hearts? (Matthew 22:37, 1 John 4:11 "...God so loved us...") Has anybody here thought of those that they love and tasted Holy Communion in their heart? (1 John 4:11 "... we...

    Holy Water

    “I have seen green rock hard antidoron” Anything goes vile, with out Love, Faith in and Fear of the Lord God. This applies to us as well as Holy Water and Antidoro… As I wrote, this applies to us: if we go to receive Holy Communion without a broken, humbled heart and spirit we condemn...

    Holy Water

    Something to add, it never goes bad either (in the same way our bodies have our souls in them, Holy Water has the Holy Spirit :) )... I have Holy Water at home that I have had for over like over 20 years or so... in regular water, distilled water after longer periods, bacteria starts to grow but...

    Question about Experiences... have you shared this one?

    The Evangelical Christian youth speaks to his Pastor: “Father, I really need to go for Holy Confession, it in the Bible you know John chapter 20, verses 19 to 23, and I’ve noticed we haven’t been taken the Holy Eucharist as often as we should… You know it’s the Divine, Deified, Blood and Body...

    Holy Communion

    hey! Thank you all for responding, may God shine His love, who is Christ Jesus, and His Grace, who is the Holy Spirit on all of you! :) Also you do know what this verse "Thine own of thine own, we offer unto thee, in behalf of all and for all!" from the Divine Liturgy means right? We are...

    Holy Communion

    "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise." (Psalm 51:17) "Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God--this is your spiritual act of worship." (Romans...
