Catholic vs. Orthodox: Explaining the Difference - Explaining the Faith 

Hear ye.

Thanks God Bless

Your Teaching of the Schism is a little off and you need to mention that there are 5 Patriarchates and the Pope of Rome split from the other 4. This has nothing to do with Russia and oligarchy as you mention. Please tell the people the truth. And also the Eastern Orthodox church is also Catholic just not Romam Catholic. They are Catholic and apostolic. Thanks for your time please feel free to discuss this further with me if you choose

The vast majority of people who agree with or like your talks do not necessarily comment. People mainly comment when they are unhappy.

❤Thank you Father Alar for your lessons!

It would help if he gave accurate information. Common sense tells us that if there is one group with many bishops, and then that group divides into one group lead by many bishops, and one group lead by one bishop ... that one group following the one (Roman) bishop (i.e., the Catholics) is the one that split off from the large group lead by many bishops. Catholics broke off from the Orthodox!

Wow, that's awesome nicole, God bless you! Know that you're in our prayers

Yay! Welcome to the faith!

It is clear now to me... Very clear....😊

@@RuthenianCatholic no he wasn’t. You can only be baptized once. The orthodox faith confirms you at baptism so I was received into the catholic faith by saying a profession of faith. Hope this helps!

@@RuthenianCatholic yes that’s correct. I’m technically Ukrainian catholic now but I attended a Roman Catholic Church and it’s OK.

@Ofelia Caballero, amen.

Amen

Amen🙏🙏

@ Ofelia Caballero Well said👏👏👏 Fr. Chris has helped me as many of you to understand why I'm so proud to be Catholic. I just recently told someone I was born Catholic & I will die Catholic. Thanks to my Mother who lived just like Jesus always giving the other chick when struck on one and praying for those who harm her. God has bless me with so much and so many people who has guide me in the right direction that I can thank Him enough. Blessings to all who have come to the table to enjoy God's grace here!🙏

That's harsh, satanic ? What makes you say that ?

Compression????Satanic??? Bro you tripping!!

@@_Faithfulfitlife they deny the Father, Son & Holy Spirit. Also deny the Death & Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Denying the Gospel. Need I go on?

Israel is the apple of God’s eye, the land of the Jews. Muslims want to wipe Israel off the face of the earth and exterminate the Jews. Therefore the god of Islam (the enemy of the true God of the Bible) is Satan. God bless you my friend! Much love, hugs and blessings to you! See you in heaven!

Thank you, welcome, and God bless you!

Thank you for taking to the time to listen and God bless you!

Hi on

Father Chris I from Singapore pray for you may our God , bless you in everything you stand for. ❤

@@julzee111 ... which is probably why you shouldn't be watching Catholic content, dear Sister in Christ. We believe here, but if you do not, why watch it?... Perhaps I know... Peace...

You left out the Jews and Muslims in your comment.

I'm Melkite Greek Catholic.

Who are Melkite’s?

​@@vartvartan7492i think they're catholic but they have orthodox style church liturgies

God bless you and your vocation!

... I think it is like both Patriarch and Bishop are of the same rank...

🎉wonderful explanation...very affirming...thank you Fr. Chris 🙌

Thank you Pat for sharing this important message. God bless you

Yet in Ukraine you'll be assaulted or arrested for wearing a St. George ribbons. Ukraine is not a god fearing country, more of a fascist, western terrorist country. This sounds like pure bs. Glory to Russia, and Papa Putin.

Mother Merriam said Catholics are the only ones that cross themselves

Except for the Eastern Catholic up to ordination

Thank you my family is from Czechoslovakia as well. God bless you!

Orthodox doesn't permit same sex

Thank you Father Chris for this inspiring history of our Catholic church. I am a Catholic living in a beautiful island of Palau.

Wow! 2 better than one.. hahaha

I really love you for your sincerity in presenting God's truths. These historical views merge well with modern day Christianity. However, I have a problem with worshipping of the angels, praying for the dead and venerating of human beings instead of Jehovah

@@fredrickmulenga4245 Catholics don't worship angels only God, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Fr. Chris Alar did an entire talk about the angels. The reason why Catholics pray for the dead is so hopefully that soul enters into Heaven. It's like saying that if you died tomorrow you can no longer pray for yourself but friends and family who are still living can help pray that your soul gets to Heaven. The reason why we also pray to saints (but not worship them) is because they can help those still living on Earth. Praying to a saint to have them intercede for us is like you asking someone to pray for you.

Awesome idea ! hopefully he does one 👍🏻😁

@@dayanaraguevarra7163 o

Thank you and you're always welcome here!

If every Catholic Church ⛪️ priest took time & gave lectures as Father Alar does, our Church ⛪️ would be in a better place now in the world ….. 💔

@@mistyviolet3825 be

In India we call Asyrian as Asur. Sue and Asur are two different tribes of the Aryans. Those who drink soma are called Sur and those who refused to drink are Asurs. Asur Bani Pal the king of Babylon had his name In Sanskrit. Hittaites were Aryans too and they used to follow the Hindu religion.

Thank you for an exhaustive Explanation by of church tree that grew so vast.. A huge unbrella of salvation in Christ. Let's agree to disagree, to Glorify God, together. Praise and glory to God... Amen

Thank you Jackie so much for sharing this message. God bless you

Thanks for explaining this madness by Moscow orthodox church they are behind Putin to destroy innocent people for their own idea of power

@@xoxo4778 Thank you, but we don't believe it is the church that is the problem, it's how Putin is trying to use it to his advantage. God bless

@@DivineMercy_Official yes!! 💯

God bless you always

Thank you for being open to God's grace Tim and God bless you.

Look into Greek Orthodoxy/Catholic , Eastern Orthodoxy under Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew, albeit I'm R.C, but finished catecheses to be received into Eastern Orthodoxy were Theophilos III, receives the Holy Fire each holy Saturday from the Sepulchre.

Amen 🙏🏻 Amen 🙏🏻 we must pray for him

I would like the scriptures that prove the spirit proceeds from both the Father and the Son. My son is orthodox. I'm Roman Catholic

@@maryvonarx8807 You can send Father Alar an email

Thank you and God bless you for being with us!

Great! The true church hystory .

so you are a religious person but not a follower of christ

@@Xpistophoros orthodox is man made religion just like catholicism. there is no need to boast ourselves based on our denominations.

@@Ajaykumarr89 The Catholic Church was founded by The Son of God Jesus Christ. It is God-Made not man-made. Jesus Christ performed 36 miracles and 27 exorcisms in the bible He was also born of a virgin, a supernatural birth and died and rose again on the third day, then ascended into Heaven. All other religions their leader never rose again but died naturally and was born naturally, none performed miracles or exorcisms by their own power. He was also the only "prophet" that was mentioned before He would be born as a man on earth. Buddha said something like "their will one day be a King of Kings born onto the earth and He will be the Saviour of The human race". And I believe Moses prophesized Him too if I am not mistaken. Repent for the day of the Lord is near, I would hate for you to be unprepared.

Tldw can summerise for me please😅? Like the main theoretical differences?

@@dankmatter3068Roman Catholics have different theology than eastern Catholics. Only difference between eastern Catholics and Eastern Orthodox is that they submitted to the pope.

This false Church withholds the cup of the blood of Christ from it's lowly and subjugated non-priest members. If the Eucharist is the blood of Christ than why do the Priests and Bishops still drink the wine? This is not trivial. You are commanded to drink from the cup. Either obey this ancient cult or Jesus Christ. See His instructions in Matthew, Mark, and Luke. Matthew 26:27 ESV - And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you, Mark 14:23 ESV - And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, and they all drank of it. Luke 22:17 ESV - And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he said, “Take this, and divide it among yourselves. *

Thank you for being open to God's grace in the church created by Christ in the Catholic Church

Hi 👋🏻 Lachelle I love ❤️ reciting and contemplating on the Nicene Creed!) that’s the longer one right???😀 with the words “In fulfillment of the scriptures)” & the apostles creed is shorter?

@@mistyviolet3825 hi yes ma’am. It’s a beautiful prayer.

Thank you Nancy for being with us. God bless!

God bless you and thank you for having an open heart to God's message. We are glad you are with us!

Wow, that is wonderful Joan, God bless you!

Yes, Jason, true :) God bless.

I learned a lot from him :)

Praise be to God. May we all unite as Christians in the 1 Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church founded by Jesus Himself 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

@@suzettepadilla9538 Saint Gregory Palamas says as much as you believe the filioque you are working and acting from Saran.it would never be any union

From the first century we have writings of Christians celebrating the Mass, the veneration of Mary and the saints, confession, prayers for the dead and belief in Purgatory. Those devotions were totally practiced by all early Christians. What does that sound like? Yes, only the Catholic Church. God bless and prayers for you.

@@user-pj7sq7ce1f our orthodox Church is heading to a peaceful death, there's no seat of power no unity no hope not worth crying over no problem I won't lose sleep over it.

Congratulations ! keep your fervor as Catholic it is the real church of our Savior Jesus Christ! God bless you

Pride is a sin.

@@KrystalGonzales-sq4yf Being proud to be a Child of God is not sinful. It's only when you think you are better than others that it can be sinful.

Actually We are not Roman catholic, this name comes under Romans rules,we should say as One, Holy, catholic and apostolic Church.

Thank you for being open to the truth of God's church!

Educate yourself on the loveless brutality and human slaughter brought on by your beloved fake church, to the extent that people are kept from Salvation in the Middle East, even in 2023. My own ancestors in Netherlands and France were victims of the heartless persecution by the heretic Roman Catholic church. Be careful who you praise in public, if not the Everlasting Father Yeshua.

Thanks, you too!

YES RUSSIA WILL RESTORE GOD' S GLORY. WE ALL KNOW THE STORY. THE NAZIS HAD TO GO. GOD BLESS.

Thank you and welcome and God bless you!

Thanks for your talk.. I'm really interested to know the origin of Orthodox church.God bless.

@@DivineMercy_Official How you are in full union with the Byzantine Catholic in there Eucharist when they have in it Greogory Palamas as a saint.saint Gregory Palamas says about you catholics πειθήνια oργανα του σατανά meaning that you are obeying blindly satan and following him. So explain yourselves here how you participate in a EUCHARIST that has in it Gregory Palamas as a saint!

@@DivineMercy_Official f he says we are seeing the seeds of consecration then that would imply Russia was consecrated in 1984 as in what he has witnessed through the yrs and not from the present rite that has only just been carried out?

@@gtibruce Thank you but that is not what we said. We said we're seeing the seeds of conversion. That is different from the consecration. God bless

@@DivineMercy_Official Sorry, i meant conversion as seeds growing and watching which is from the past till now not from a new consecration that has only just begun?
