Hi, Justme... Yes the Eastern Orthodox vary somewhat as to which confessions are those with which they would agree. I don't think there is any problem with their agreement with Christendom as a whole in the ecumenical councils. They tend to put a lot of stock in the words of those they call the Apostolic Fathers. In that sense, they are a lot like the Roman Catholics and the Pentecostals. Where they would all differ is on WHO are the Apostolic Fathers after the death of John. They have a term Patriarch that is not easily achieved, but is right up there in authority. In the US the American Orthodox Church they have a pretty comprehensive compilation of their faith and practice. In Russian they have something called the Orthodox Confession of Moglias in 1643). There was some disagreement so there was a council in Jerusalem which produced the The Confession of Dositheus for Eastern Orthodoxy (1672). They are pretty strict in following the various Archdiocese to which they submit. I have had the opportunity to hear various Eastern Orthodox fathers give instruction. However, I am certainly no expert. In Him, Doc |
