Comment on Jewish concept of Messiah (Christ) is identical to our Christian concept of Anti-Messiah (Anti-Christ), brief comparison of Orthodox Judaism and Orthodox Christianity by admin.

Hi Jacob,
You’re not correct that all Orthodox Churches celebrate on 4th of January and (It’s actually 6th against 7th of January).
For example check for the Russian Orthodox Church they celebrate on 7th of January. Also many of the Orthodox Monasteries celebrate on 7th. The Russian Orthodox Church abroad also has it’s Nativity feast on 7th of January. Also Serbian Church celebrates it on 6th to 7th of January.
Note that here the Russian Church is one of the biggest national Church in the realm of the Orthodox Church.
It’s more correct that the feast of nativity is being celebrated on 7th of January as the Orthodox tradition puts.
You’re right Orthodox Christianity teaches that God created everything with his Word, it also teaches that Jesus Christ is the Lord of God (begotten before all ages) as we state in the creed of faith on every Holy Liturgy.

You’re absolutely right about the Jewish theology, I’m aware that according to Jewish faith the Torah itself (some of the old testamential books) are God himself, this kind of belief is widely spread also among protestant Christians as protestanism does adopt many of the beliefs of Jews. In Orthodox Christianity I’m not aware that we belief that the Holy Scriptures are uncreated. The uncreated Torah also corresponds well with Muslims belief that the Qu’ran is uncreated, most probably this idea came again from Judaism.

Concerning Christ’s preach to venerate God instead of any sun or any other kind of idols, it’s quite clear not only from the troparion but also in a numerous of places in the Gospels, so that’s absolutely correct.

I would say it’s Wes’s misinformation that makes him make this so-popular nowdays fantastic (superstitios) stories about origins of Christianity.

Wish you best and hope to see you around.

Best,

Georgi

Hi we believe different in Orthodox Church, we believe Jesus Christ is God’s son and not Jahovah himself but one in hipostasis with God the Father The Son and The Holy Spirit. We don’t believe what you say, because we believe Jesus was not only God in the Flesh but man too so Godman in the flesh who came to save us through his sacrifice on the Golgotha Cross.

Hello Wes,

The Church crimes were done by Roman Catholics (during ages of Inquisition) after the Great Chuch Schism (the time when Roman Cathoics decided to change some parts of the ancient faith).

I see you continue to stuck to your dilusions about connection between some imaginary Sun God and the true king of earthly and heavenly king of Israel and our saviour Jesus Christ.

You’re correct that many Christians try to only talk about the positiveness of Christianity. I’m not one of these Christians. Christianity is not a bed of roses it’s a hard fight until the physical death. Christ did not promised us a good life and good monetary status here on earth but on the contrary he promised that we will be under persecution for our faith.

If you really want to have a debate you will have to first understand the Orthodox Church history. Talking about Christianity you mix up the Orthodox Christian faith with other Christian faiths, many of which hold up to a heretical ideas. You should clear this up if you want us to have a decent debate.

Best!

Heya Wes.

St. Paul explains here he did not used tricks to convince them of the truth but he used his life example and prayer to God to have mercy on them. He also shows humility by mocking himself. Be careful with the interpretation just quoting some bible text without the context does not reveal it’s true meaning.

Best!

Big Church Scandal in the Bulgarian Orthodox Church the developments on how the Church basic law Establishment document is illegally broken and hope and action for truth to be restored

What is rather fun is during the anti-protest organized by Metropolitan Nikolay (with people only from the Plovdiv eparchy just like in the good old times of communism was financed by the unwilling people to go to the event). It was lied that the reason for Nikolay people to protest is because this is a protest in front of the Synod against the accepting of gay marriages (what a lie !!!). Besides that there is a many people from village called Krepost (if not mistaken the village) who were (protestants!) and came to protest in favour of the new anti people legislation (even though not orthodox christians), because they were mislead the protests are against the gays!

Metropolitan Nikolay has publicly asked priests in his eparchy to sign a document they're going to be present on the protests that should support the New Synodal "order". Those who were unwilling to cooperate of course can always be sent by their Metropolitan to a very distant village or even taken away their profession as priests so there was a lot of pressure put on those people.

Hi Stan,

I guess you cannot read the writtings on the icon as it is in cyrillic.
This is not Saint Mary and Saint Peter but Adam and Eve written in cyrillic on top of the icon.
Actually in orthodoxy it is a requirement for the depicted personalities, especially saints to have
written on the names of the saint and have the Halo. If you look closely at the picture you will notice
the two Adam and Eve are missing a Halo. The only person with a Halo in the icon is Saint John the Baptist.
