The Difference Between Orthodoxy, Protestantism & Catholicism - Mar Mari Emmanuel 

Bishop Mari is wrong about his comments on Protestants. You cannot lump them all together. Confessional Lutherans do believe that marriage, baptism, communion are sacraments because they were instituted by God. Please see my other comments above. We do believe that the bread and wine are the true body and blood of Christ, and that Christ is “present” with and under the bread and wine. Catholics believe differently from Orthodox and Lutherans. Mari got this one wrong, sorry. It is very frustrating for someone like him, who is well-respected, to spread false-information about the Lutheran faith. (Confessional Lutherans are the true Lutheran Church. The Evangelical Lutheran Church of America (ELCA) split off and are very unbiblical regarding certain doctrines. They should not be considered Lutheran. Many Protestant branches are the same - allowing gay marriage, even in the pulpit, is an abomination to God. We are NOT in that category.

YOOOOOOOOOOO this is amazing !!!! I love this and i was almost being like this because i don't want believers to reject all the truth. Like i would not argue the big subject but the little ones and more and more the time continue God will allow them to accept the truth

Also the entirety of 1st Corinthians 12.

AMENNN

Provided that acceptance is not rationalizing denial of truth or current sin yes. Where the Bible makes clear something is right or wrong we are commanded to confront it. Someone brought up chapter 12 of 2nd Corinthians, but we must remember Paul then went on in chapter 13 that those still unrepentant needed to repent before he arrived again because not one would be spared otherwise.

who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him... so if you really love Jesus and if you really follow Jesus, You must eat the body of Christ and drink his blood, as he told you, my brother

@@Kyrillos_hishmatyes we do, we read his word and console daily. A piece of bread and wine doesn’t make a Christian my friend♥️

@@Issacandjacob Jesus tells you very clearly: Eat my flesh and drink my blood, and you say that a piece of bread and wine will not make you a Christian, so how can you follow Christ? The meaning of following Jesus Christ is that you must do what He said in order for Him to love you. As he said in John 14:23 Jesus answered and said to him, “Whoever loves me will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our dwelling with him.” , Do what Christ said, my brother, if you really follow him ❤️❤️❤️

@@Kyrillos_hishmat “in order for him to love you” I don’t believe that’s true. Sure, he may want you to do what he says, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t love you, that would be cruel.

@@AntiAzovIndividual John 14:23 Jesus said Whoever loves me will keep my word, "and my Father will love him" .. sure, Jesus loves everyone, but if you really love him, keep his word.

@@thefaultinourstars8729But they said He lost an eye, not he lost the sight in one eye… No update on the matter…

Jesus is to cool for "just symbolic".

wait so im not like going to any church yet. how does it work? i am confused, because if it is the physical body oif jeuss christ, is he being sacraficed over and over again for our sins? is it not just a reminder that he is the bread which is broken, so that we may be fixed as he said it was for rememberance? and when jesus says that if you do not eat the flesh and drink his blood, then u have no life in you, is this not figurative? because then our life or our salvation is based on doing this work every month or every week, then is salvation not based on works? if that verse that says "he who doesnt eat the flesh and drink the blood has no life" is literal than salvation is works based. if it is figurative, saying we must spiritually eat the flesh and drink the blood of christ, just as we must be baptised by the spirit, not necessarily water, to be saved, then communion is also figurative representation and reminder of jesus being broken so we may be fixed.

prove it.

I'm a Pentecostal Protestant. I'm not making fun of the Orthodox. But, what are you mourning? Christ is alive, off the cross, out of the tomb and sitting next to His Father, as we speak. What is there to mourn about? REJOICE, my brother. I'm truly curious about why one would mourn. I'm not looking for a fight, like most on RU-vid. I'm just trying to understand.

I'm Eastern Orthodox too, and I have absolutely no idea what he means by mourning.

​@@freedomisntfree131Yes, Christ is alive, He's resurrected, but before this, He's passed through His Passion, and He didn't laugh during the Passion. If we want to take part with Christ, we have to pass through the Passion too.

It's not about who has it completely correct; it's about which religion leads to salvation after death. And the Catholic Church has ALWAYS said that there is no salvation outside the Catholic Church.

@@sebastianbaran9645”I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” “Whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” Where does it say catholic church within those 2 verses? Get out of here, pharisee.

I'm saying based on quran and hadith. In the Quran, Jesus is taken to heaven by God, but no record says mohammd is in heaven, not even the Quran. So if mohmad is in hell then all his followers also maybe end up in hell. There are 26 different arabic versions of quran( u can google it), which one is real?, means it's not word of God. Mohammd has disobeyed all commandments of God, which means he disobeyed God himself. Mohammd has killed, raped, did child marriage, married his sons wife, owned sex slaves and so on. Mohammd drastically died from poison by Jewish woman, a very normal human. Even God didn't warn him and mohammd can't predict his future. Mohammd can't predict his own future, how will he predict his followers future? Jesus predicted his death and resurrection, that happened. Jesus himself said he is the Son of God. Jesus said he will be next to his father in heaven. Jesus has done godly miracles like giving life to dead bodies and many similar ones.

Exactly my thought. Im not Christian, but I know this much. Lutherans are hardcore on the view regarding Communion "...the bread and the wine in the Supper are the true body and blood of Christ". Raises some alarmclocks around this Bishop to me...

Regardless of our denomination, be it Catholic , Orthodox or protestant, we need to be born again to enter Gods kingdom. The parable of the wheat and tares is very sobering. We are saved by grace alone. But a true faith is not alone. We are taught in the Word of God, that we are known by our fruit,{works}. Bless you.

Best answer that could be given!

Exactly.. They have a "tradition" of ignoring the words of Jesus and the Bible in general.

The tradition is older than the bible lol

@@SobiechSZN That does not make it true.

​@@RationalJJ So you are saying that the teachings of the apostles, Jesus' direct disciples, are wrong, contrary to your interpretation 2000 years later?

The teachings of the apostles regarding the holy communion are summarised in 1 Corinthians 11: 23-30. Anything extra is unbiblical.

The true followers of Christ are called Muslims. What's called "Christianity" is also from the Middle East, like Islam. but, it is originally a distorted version of Islam like other religions. There is only one true religion from the beginning, which is submission/Surrender to God and worshiping Him alone. In Arabic, its name is "Islam", and it is the religion of all the prophets and it is the religion to which they called. Islam is the truth. I invite you all to Islam, to worship the one true God, being devoted to Him, the religion alone with no partners. The first and last religion is the religion of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and The last and final profit Muhammad ﷺ, and all the prophets, may blessings and peace be upon them. all the prophets are Muslims. They did not worship a man named Jesus, or associate others with God, or worship three gods in one god. But only one God. This is the logic, history and reality. Just try reading the Qur'an, even if it is out of curiosity, Also read the Bible and all the other holy books if you want, and compare them with the Qur’an to distinguish truth from falsehood and light from darkness. or watch the debates between Muslims and Christians, atheists, and others. ..., For example, I advise you to consider the preacher Muhammad Ali, owner of TheMuslimLantern channel, Othman Farouk, or Ahmed Deedat, may God have mercy on him.

That's not true. Many branches say it's symbolic. Not just Baptist. Try reading more.

Religion is for idiots. Believe in yourself and people you love. 😊

Then how come those religions do not teach any truths? They are all guilty of blasphemy and will be destroyed as prophesied.

Great answer brother.

Amen 🕊️

Christ is one of the prophets of God. He is the servant of God and His Messenger. He calls for the worship of The one God alone. He is a Muslim and so are his followers. Do not ever think of yourselves as slaves of Christ. You have distorted the Gospels and introduced polytheism, superstitions and heresies into the religion. Now the churches have become homosexual, and as for the rape of children in churches by priests And monks, this is another topic entirely. The statistics for that are very frightening, although the statistics include only the incidents that were reported, which is much less than the real number. Praise be to God for the blessing of Islam, the true religion, the religion of Abraham and all the prophets. Save yourselves and your children from the shame and misguidance in which you are.

@@annitmul1614 I can't make out what you are asking could you write your questions without abbreviations and in full sentences please.

@@123iceboy i think you are saying we lutheran have the original bible by removing the added book(authority of the pope)? we know for how long popes was practicing absolute power given this i feel it will be hard to identify the original and add so by what measurement did u identify them. according to history Luther was seeking the true and original christian but how is getting the original possible do you think simply by saying Jesus please show us the true and original way can be achieved. today's world protestantism is by far different from Luther' wish.

@@annitmul1614 I understand thanks for the classification. First off the original Lutheran bible and some like me use that one today, still keeps the Septuagint only books (what Catholics call the deuterocanonicals). He didn't intend on removing them only to clarify they are not found in the Jewish canon found in the masoretic text. Which for him made them less auhoritatuve or even non-authoritative compared to OT and NT books. Which if you read the books in question you realize most of them add context to practices of first century Jews but they don't add any major insights that are helpful or necessary for christian doctrine. So I understand his view on those. Even though we know now that the Jewish canon we now know is newer than the christian canon. I believe that we are all brothers in christ and I do believe that the catholic church has come a long way since the time of Luther I just have an issue with the papal authority the celibacy of priests and papal infallibility. The first and last because of their historic implications, Paul IV, John XII, Urban II cough. The second because even the orthodox let married people become priests not bishops which is debatable, but that's at least something. Would I become catholic if these were resolved probably, granted they also need to go after pedophile priests more strictly, but that should be a case either way. I do agree with a lot of the stuff the old catholic denomination does and they are very similar to us Lutherans, there just isn't one any where near me.

@@123iceboy ya we all are brother in Christ who is absolute God and absolute human .I'm not catholic. im from Ethiopian Orthodox and I believe the world christian have to dig deep to get the true way(Christ)

Yes, but to follow Christ means to be United in One Holy Church... And I would Trust The apostólic ones rather than The protestant ones... I hope some day protestants stop protesting and The apostolic soster Churches are all togheter again. Happy feast of Corpus Christi!❤

You are totally failing to understand that the reason why Christ pointed out the flaws in a church era is because there were ppl calling God a liar, compromising with His doctrines, or wholesale rejecting His doctrines. All but 2 of them(the Smyrna and Philadelphia) didn't love the truth enough to fight for it, so they ended up falling away from God and surrendering to Satan, including the era Christ personally started!

I was just reading it can you tell me though we're it became it was jesus body and not just the partaken in remnberamce I can't find out were that was bought in by who are date, and I'm not being smart I would like to know, as eucharist just describes the communion not becoming christ, for I don't see that in any gospels are writings,

And if it be from sixty years old and above; if it be a male, then thy estimation shall be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels.

But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days. If a woman gives birth to a male child, she is unclean for seven days. If she has a female child, she is unclean for 14-66 days. Genesis 32:22: And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two womenservants... Genesis 26:34, Genesis 29:29: And Esau was forty years old when he took to wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite. Then went Esau unto Ishmael, and took unto the wives which he had Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael Abraham's son, the sister of Nebajoth, to be his wife. Genesis 25:1: Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah. Worth noting is that Abraham already had a wife at this point (Sarah), as well as his very own abandoned sex slave concubine (Hagar). Genesis 19:8: Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes. Genesis 3:16: Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. "husband rule over you" Genesis 3:16: Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. "husband rule over you" Exodus 21:7-8: And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do. If she please not her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her unto a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her. "sell"whats that bible says that a father can sell his daughter" what a irony Ephesians 5:22-24: Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. the word "savior" means he(the husband keeps women safe) Deuteronomy 22:5: The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God. Deuteronomy 21:11-14: And seest among the captives a beautiful woman, and hast a desire unto her, that thou wouldest have her to thy wife.

And she shall put the raiment of her captivity from off her, and shall remain in thine house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month: and after that thou shalt go in unto her, and be her husband, and she shall be thy wife. And it shall be, if thou have no delight in her, then thou shalt let her go whither she will... Colossians 3:18: Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord. If you search google about the meaning of submit or submission you will get that it is the synnonym of this respect and some get it as to permit someone to rule over you. So we cannot say that what is the real meaning of this word 1 Corinthians 14:34-35: Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law. And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church. 1.1 Corinthians 11: 3-10: But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head. But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head - it is the same as having her head shaved. If a woman does not cover her head, she might as well have her hair cut off; but if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, then she should cover her head. A man ought not cover his head, since he is in the image and the glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. For man did not come from woman, but woman from man. Neither was man created for women, but women for man. For this reason, a woman ought to have a sign of authority on her head, because of the angels.

In reply to Joe Ferris who I thumbed up his comment. Never did I think God had sex with Mother Mary & Jesus was born! Or that Jesus wasn’t on the cross crucified so brutally. I BELIEVE IT!

Well said. It's sad to see so many so-called Christians put down any church they don't belong to. It's not the church that matters, it's what the individual believes. I am also certain that many people are saved outside of any of the three main branches of Christendom as well as within them. I am also certain many in all three branches are NOT saved too.

If you believe that Jesus Christ of Nazareth is the Son of God, and that He died on the cross for your sins and rose from the dead, you will be saved. He promised that when you receive this truth, He will give you the gift of the Holy Spirit. With the Spirits guidance He will help you choose. Until then, keep reading your bible. I will pray for you also brother. May the Lord richly bless you.

Don't ask RU-vid but God 😁 really ask Him and He will guide you. And follow what the Christ says, i mean if you end up being a catholic or an othodox or a protestant or whatever, thank God to guide you and consider that may be a right place for you but please never use "your" church to divide and fight other Christians like some people do... juste love God and all your neighbours as yourself 😉 God bless you 🙏🏻
