the word essence is synonyms with the word being
Synonymous
Ok
So one in being and essence right?
Yes or no
Yeah
But when disscussing Theology it's better to say essence.

Liteger told me so

They don't accept the Catholic understanding of the Trinity is what I was trying to say.
They believe that essence and energies are distinct
And they don't believe in filioque
Ok
@TheSilverish What I should have said was; aside from the Trinity being one in being, they make a distinction between essence and energy, which is completely separate from God being one in being. And by Filioque, Nic is referring to the belief that the Holy Ghost proceeds from the Father and the Son.
Ok
Got it
Catholics make no distinction between God's essence and energy, while the Orthodox do.
That's the main difference
And prots are prots
Ok
That's why they've adopted Eastern religion practices and meditations
Which are satanic
Satanic?
Yes
You calling Islam satanic!
?*
Bingo
