Something that it's against in the bible
Others want to redefine parts to sound "better" or more lovingly something again that shouldn't be
I am turning away from Protestantism. Basically, Church of Christ believe in Sola Scriptura, so they take nothing out, and add nothing to.
But Filioque isn't heresy. @Deleted User Does the Holy Spirit not proceed from Christ? Did Christ not breathe the Holy Spirit unto the Apostles?
His translation that added and the son was unscriptural
But as I said, it wasn't such a big deal back then nor it's now. Just back then it just added some oil to the fire that was brewing in west/eastern relationships
when you do have time though check this
@Deleted User Do Orthodox pray the Rosary?
So you don't believe that the holy spirit proceeds from the Son because of John 15:26?
Orthodox use a knotted prayer rope called either a komboskini or chotki, with 100 knots, although prayer ropes with 50 or 33 knots can also be used
Yes, as I said, we do follow only the book without altering anything
Revisioning the new testament only leads to heresy
How was it a rivision?
Are Catholics going to hell?
And sins were forgiven through Sacrifice in the OT. Christ rose from the dead to show that death will be overcome with Christ alone. It was a miracle to prove he was the Son.
Catholics going to hell? Thats absurd to say. For the catholics part it wasn't revision but most like an error on the translation. The problem fired up when the pope legalize it though.
Revisioning was meant for the other "churches" as protestants that cut/add whatever they want just so their bible can sound "better" thus leading to heresies
Well, I will have to side with Catholics on this one. The Holy Spirit may only proceed from the Father, but Christ is still God. And God is equal amongst himself, revered above all.
but it's unscriptural
But the redemption of sins was through sacrifice, not the resurrection.
Perhaps both?
what do you mean?
Idk.
I'm a babe in Christ.
The redemption of our sins came from his sacrifice in the cross
His resurrection show us that death is not eternal nor something to be feared and that it can be defeated by following in his steps
Right. Some Orthodox would call you a heretic for that.
idk
I think they would, was reading up on orthodoxy.
It wouldn't this is what god showed us
But if Jesus is God, doesn't the Holy Spirit proceed from Him also?
And if the Holy Spirit is God, the Son and the Father is with the Spirit?
Thus I do not know that, the scripture tells us what it's. I'm not an expert on theology to be able to answer that
@Iakovos Eastern Orthodox Christians believe in a single God who is both three and one (triune); the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, "one in essence and undivided". The Holy Trinity is three "unconfused" and distinct divine persons (hypostases), who share one divine essence (ousia); uncreated, immaterial and eternal. The Father is the eternal source of the Godhead, from whom the Son is begotten eternally and also from whom the Holy Spirit proceeds eternally. The essence of God being that which is beyond human comprehension and cannot be defined or approached by human understanding
I hope that helps a little did some research to find someone that could explain it better then me
I see.
well if Christ is God I believe that the Holy Spirit can come from Him.
The Resurrection of Christ is the central event in the liturgical year of the Orthodox Church and is understood in literal terms as a real historical event. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was crucified and died, descended into Hades, rescued all the souls held there through man's original sin; and then, because Hades could not restrain the infinite God, rose from the dead, thus saving all humanity. Through these events, he released humanity from the bonds of Hades and then came back to the living as man and God. That each individual human may partake of this immortality, which would have been impossible without the Resurrection, is the main promise held out by God in his New Covenant with humanity, according to Orthodox Christian tradition.
Every holy day of the Orthodox liturgical year relates to the Resurrection directly or indirectly. Every Sunday of the year is dedicated to celebrating the Resurrection; many Orthodox believers will refrain from kneeling or prostrating on Sundays in observance thereof. Even in the liturgical commemorations of the Passion of Christ during Holy Week, there are frequent allusions to the ultimate victory at its completion.
