Either the Holy Orthodox Church is the fullness of the Faith as once given and handed down by the Apostles or it is not.
I strongly urge you to read the Scriptures and trust in Jesus Christ alone for your salvation. If you trust in anything else—the EOC, your own works, theosis, or anything else—then you will hear the dreaded “I never knew you” from Christ. I don’t want that for you. Repent and believe in Jesus for the forgiveness of your sins.

I appreciate your posts and commend you for disregarding the trolls (see Pr. 26:4-5). They don't know how to read texts, don't think critically, and refuse to interact charitably.
"But when the kindness and affection of God our Savior appeared, He saved us, not by works which we did in righteousness, but according to His mercy, through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that having been justified by His grace, we would become heirs according to the hope of eternal life." Titus 3:5
Jesus is wonderful!

So all the chruches before Calvin said Calvinism is wrong and the churches that were born at the same time as Calvin said Calvinism is wrong, but we're supposed to believe Calvinism is right because he was the first to read the Bible correctly 1500 years after Christ established His Church?

In terms of the RCC, justification by faith alone was still a valid option until the Council of Trent.
I should mention that Calvin and the other Reformers quoted heavily from the patristics, as they didn’t think their understanding of Scripture was novel, but merely a clarification of what many who came before them believed.
You have to remember that the Reformers didn’t think of themselves as creating a new and unique church, but reforming the Church back to what it was originally when the NT Scriptures were written, before a millennia of error became codified through fallible tradition.

You are a CHARLATAN who is outside of the ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC, APOSTOLIC CHURCH.
You attack Eastern Orthodox (and don’t even understand our Doctrines and Dogma - we’re not all Greek Orthodox for starters) and Roman Catholics, yet have no clue of the Sacramental life practiced by the Early Church and continued unbroken since Christ shared bread and wine at the Last Supper.
I see you have been on this site for years peddling your anti-Christ nonsense to a few Reformist lackeys with your Calvinist heresies.
You have placed yourself in a position of judgement of others’ salvation and eternal damnation while always running back to “it’s Scriptural” which was never taught as DOGMA nor DOCTRINE until the INNOVATIONS of heretical Protestant sects.
You’re no different than LDS, JWs, SAs, Moonies or Eastern Lightning cultists…making up your own doctrines and claiming YOUR OWN interpretations of Holy Scriptures.
And you’re going to warn me of eternal damnation??? Okay dude. Lord have mercy on you.

concerns me we have a president thinking about how he gets into heaven instead of making our country and world a better place... That's some cult shite...
You voted for the Democrat ticket—yet it’s the same platform that:
• Supports biological men competing in women’s sports under the banner of “inclusion.”
• Pushes gender ideology and pronoun mandates, equating wokeness with compassion—when in fact, it often leads to confusion and division.
• Encourages illegal immigration, with people arriving from over 180 nations, seemingly believing there will be no societal or economic consequences.
• Champions forced vaccinations and sweeping government mandates, shutting down businesses and schools without accountability.
• Claims more legislation will “fix the climate,” despite little evidence that these policies make meaningful impact.
?
And now they’re trying to silence RFK Jr.— because he’s raising valid concerns about what’s being put into our food, contributing to an unhealthy, over-medicated population.
They opposed tariffs that would have leveled the playing field for American manufacturing, proving time and again that fair trade isn’t a priority.
?
Let’s talk about what they do support:
• They made a martyr out of George Floyd—a known drug user and convicted felon—because the situation involved a white cop. He resisted arrest and tragically died from fentanyl intoxication—yet entire cities were set on fire in the name of justice.
• But when a Black man murders a white woman on a subway, there’s silence. No protests. No outrage. Why?
?
And for all their talk about “compassion,” where is it?
• Compassion means wanting people to have proper ID to vote.
• It means encouraging fatherhood, strengthening marriage, and promoting godly values—not mocking them.
• Instead, Democrats often demean faith and family while claiming moral superiority.
?
Let’s look globally.
Look at nations governed under Islamic law—where religion and governance are one and the same. Are these nations thriving in ways that attract mass migration? Or do they grow primarily through coercion and fear, not freedom and opportunity?
?
In the end, Democrats are often dangerously naïve.
They cloak policy failures in the language of empathy but leave destruction in their wake.
And if believing in one true Christ makes me part of a “cult” in your eyes… so be it.

Nothing you mentioned has anything to do with Christ and everything to do with secular politics whether it be transgender, immigration or Covid policy .....which incidentally Trump supported.
I'm not seeing much at all about Christ....or God. I see a regurgitation of standard complaints that most who do not support Trump actually agree with. Just because one does not embrace Trump does not mean that one supports the opposite.
Maybe you should show evidence that Trump has any grasp of Faith or Christian action. My own opinion of Trump is the same as my opinion of W on the topic. He uses.....used Christians and the cultural issues that concerned them. Much like W did. Say all the right things, throw a bone every now and then. Maybe Evangelical preachers should begin to withdraw from the political world and focus on the spiritual well being of their own flock who are ravaged by sin.

quote:This is the message I hope all people interested in the EOC see. That millions upon millions of faithful Christians who worship the one God and His son Jesus Christ, who trust in no one and nothing else but Him by faith, and who seek to obey Him faithfully with good fruits according to the Scriptures, are damned because of the lack of affiliation with the EOC. This is Eastern Orthodoxy in a nutshell: salvation is only in the Eastern Orthodox Church; not in Christ alone, not by faith alone, not in any other faithful church, but only in the EOC.
You are a CHARLATAN who is outside of the ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC, APOSTOLIC CHURCH.
While in believe the RCC and EOC are false churches at this point, I don’t claim that affiliation with them alone damns anyone, but recognize that the Lord has saved many from those traditions.
quote:Anti-Christ nonsense? I seek nothing else but to draw people to Christ. Yes, I’ Reformed, and yet welcome all Christians as my brother or sister who claim Christ as their own, trusting in Him alone by faith. I believe that Christianity is an exclusive faith, where salvation is offered to all people but requires being a disciple of Jesus Christ rather than following Mohammad, or Buddha. However I believe that anyone who clings to Christ alone by faith for their salvation can and will be saved by Him, even if they are not nominally part of the same church organization that belong to.
I see you have been on this site for years peddling your anti-Christ nonsense to a few Reformist lackeys with your Calvinist heresies.
quote:I have been clear with my words that I’m not judging anyone’s heart or soul, and I certainly don’t know of anyone’s eternal state. The language of the Bible is judging fruits, not souls, as only Jesus can do that.
You have placed yourself in a position of judgement of others’ salvation and eternal damnation while always running back to “it’s Scriptural” which was never taught as DOGMA nor DOCTRINE until the INNOVATIONS of heretical Protestant sects.
But speaking of judgment, let me ask you this: if I continue to reject the EOC until the day of my death, will I be saved, according to the teaching of your tradition?
quote:No different, huh? Perhaps you should look at what all those groups believe and teach before saying that. I can affirm the ancient creeds as being in alignment with the Scriptures. None of those groups can do that.

Again, you make up feces, throw it against the wall and hope it sticks and that lost in your word salads of double talk, someone would believe your crap.
It’s mealy mouthed heretics like yourself that have helped wake up men in the West to flee from feminist, LGBQT embracing Reformed heresies to the Holy Orthodox Church.
“Pastor” after “pastor” fall weekly from self-governing Reformed and Evangelical “churches” full of self-loathing and emotional hurting people looking to have their ears tickled while being financially fleeced.
Take your heretical musings to the Fantasy board.

I am not here to defend Trump's faith, but he is the only President I can recall in the last 40 years who has televised prayer before his cabinet meetings. That's happened at least 2 times. I found that to be very powerful.
He defends Christians...
He mentioned God way more than prior Presidents... He just does, that's a fact. But many do not want to believe it's real because they have already made up their mind about Trump. "He's just in it for himself".. as you suggest, it's just all for show???
In my view, Trump seems to be coming to terms that this life is coming to a close...and is searching...hoping for something beyond this great life he has lived.
The fact he escaped death of a bullet flying by and clipping his ear, was nothing short of miracle he does acknowledge...He brings it up awkwardly and repeats a lot of dumb things, "the ear bleeds a lot"...these kinds of things
Trump is a flawed man, I choose not to tear him down because he does seem to be fighting for the greater good of America...
He hugs the flag, solutes the Military, mentions God, invites prayer, doesn't like lawlessness and foolish wars...handles most things with basic common sense- pushes back on an evil media that has corrupted the minds of many, thus dividing us.
So what exactly is the problem with Trump?
I know Christians, white liberal females in their early 70's who bash Trump 24/7 like they are saving humanity or our democracy...
it's a sickness, -averaging 10 post per day on their FB walls...."I need to post this maybe someone will come around and see what I see that is so obviously evil about this man"...
that's the most unspiritual, unwise thing to do- and they will get ugly with you if you challenge their thinking.
So, look, everyone has their opinion of Trump...
I don't care -
If you want talk to scripture, bring it on... Nothing would make me happier.

I’m Reformed (not PCUSA) and my denomination (as well as most other Reformed and Presbyterian denominations) condemns the PCUSA as being out of accord with the Scriptures.
It is true that many people have left the PCUSA because of its theological liberalism, and those people have gone all over the place, including to my denomination, which supports biblical complementarianism and rejects sexual sin as included by the LGBTQ+ acronym.
