@mdhorton9 3 месяца назад

@@Taydutt13, The Nicene creed has long prevented me from enthusiastically embracing Orthodoxy, specifically the expression of the Trinity. I recently learned that my views on the Holy Spirit closely match the writings of Augustine. I would guess his view on this might cause some of the negativity you are investigating. Perhaps if Augustine is accepted, I possibly could be as well…

@Taydutt13 3 месяца назад

@mdhorton9 what's wrong with how he describes the trinity? Is it like a subordination view or they are three separate gods or what is it about writings upset people?

@@Taydutt13That all started in the 20th century with anti-western academic orthodox thinkers like Fr. John Romanides and the rest of the “neo-patristic” movement. In my opinion, and that of others, they have caused a lot of damage in the Church and has perpetuated the creation of a form of sectarianism within the Church. Fr. Seraphim Rose criticized this form of thinking in his book defending St. Augustine, seems like the damage, however, has been done.

Geography matters my dear Father Josiah . Please correct me if I am wrong dear father Josiah . When morality descends in a place that the laws governing a place are supportive of immorality and is devoid of all spiritual considerations then that place has surrendered its self to Satan . The lord asked Lot and his family to leave Sodom and Gomorrah before the lord destroyed the whole place with his holy wrath. All I am saying is leaving a Geographical spot when the rule of God has become foreign to it is a biblical concept. Do you agree ? God Bless you and your amazing work Father . I learn so much from your lectures.

I'm at a crossroad. I'm considering attending a Catholic Mass for the first time instead of an Orthodox Christian Divine Liturgy. (I've been to three Divine Liturgies). I know Protestantism/Pentecostal is not the true Church. Every day I do the Orthodox Morning Prayers, every night I do the Orthodox Evening Prayers. ☦️🕊️Burn incense, light candles in front of the Icons of the Most Holy Theotokos Mary and Jesus Christ Son of God.🕯️ Read the Psalter and the Gospels.☦️ Pray the Jesus prayer with my knotted bracelet🙏. I feel close to the Faith but without baptism I feel incomplete, dirty, and worry about my family suddenly dying without us being baptized. 💔 After finding out that i can not be baptized or receive Communion (I can stand in Communion line and instead ask for a "blessing" and the Church Father makes the sign of the Cross over my bowed head, and Blesses me. Same with my 7 year old son...Then we get a piece of blessed bread "Antidoron" (instead of/in place of the gifts) like everyone else). One day, while leaving before the lunch, early, the Father was chrismating a baby, and I asked if he would Bless my son. He drew crosses on both of our foreheads.... That's it though. To be baptized, I must attend every Sunday consistently and wait 1 to 3 years....plus must stay after service to join the other catechumens/inquirers during the Lunch in the basement.... But I'm shy and there is no way I can attend every Sunday. I'm an adult student, with a semi disabled Husband and we have a 7 year old son who's school is problematic, and every Sunday isn't possible. Not for 1 to 3 years straight. 😔 Would it be cheating to attend a Catholic Church just to be baptized? I still don't know if the Orthodox Christian Church would recognize a Catholic baptism or still not give Communion? 🤔

@lindaphillips4646 2 месяца назад

I decided to watch Fr. Josiah again and just saw your comments from only a few hours ago. I can tell you that you would not be allowed to receive Holy Communion if you were a catholic.. unless a priest does something inappropriate. I don't know anything about those strict rules about time and classes. I did not have to do that but i was a church for several years before my reception. Can you talk to your priest about your situation? Maybe you could ask advice from another priest. I don't know what Fr. JOSIAH would advise you. ☦💝📿💝☦

PRODIGAL: characterized by profuse or wasteful expenditure. (Merriam-Webster) Now this I say and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds. They are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to their hardness of heart. They have become callous and have given themselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity. (Ephesians 4:17-19 ESV)
