Why I Am an Eastern Orthodox Christian
Author: Ph. D. D. H. Stamatis
Publisher: Bookstand Publishing
ISBN: 9781634987974
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
When the word "orthodox" is used many people from all walks of life, associate it with the "Orthodox Jew." To be sure, there are Orthodox Jews but in this book the word is associated with the Eastern Orthodox Church which is the original Christian faith. Etymologically the word is of Greek origin, meaning: Orthos - correct + doxa- glory. It came about as a useful word in the religion context when in 1054 A.D. the then "Christian Church" split in two factions. The one who rebelled against the traditional church took the name of Roman Catholic Church - indicating a global entity, and the one which remained true to the original teachings of Christ, Apostles and the early Fathers of the Church, which took the name Orthodox. So, this book is about that original Christianity - the Orthodox faith - that has kept both beliefs and traditions of the original preaching of Christ, Apostles, St. Paul and all those who have followed in their steps. Specifically, it accounts why I have chosen Christianity and Orthodoxy to be my guiding light. In my pursuit for the selection of the true way, the truth and the life, I have taken the time to record my research and give the reader a summary of my journey and my decision. I hope that my arguments and presentation can convince the reader to find their own path to this faith that is biblical, spiritual and therapeutic.

On the Unity of Christ
Author: Saint Cyril (Patriarch of Alexandria)
Publisher: St Vladimir's Seminary Press
ISBN: 9780881411331
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
This text is one of the most important and yet approachable works produced by Cyril. It was written after the Council of Ephesus (431) to explain his doctrine to an international audience. Cyril argues for the single divine subjectivity of Christ, and describes how it encompasses a full and authentic humanity in Jesus - a human experience that is not overwhelmed by the divine presence, but fostered and enhanced by it. Christology becomes then, for St Cyril, a paradigm for the transfigured and redeemed life of the Christian. There is an introduction to the historical and theological background of the time, of the text and to St Cyril himself.

Why We're Catholic
Author: Trent Horn
Publisher: Catholic Answers Press
ISBN: 9781683570240
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
"How can you believe all this stuff? This is the number-one question Catholics get asked and, sometimes, we ask ourselves. Why do we believe that God exists, that he became a man and came to save us, that what looks like a wafer of bread is actually his body? Why do we believe that he inspired a holy book and founded an infallible Church to teach us the one true way to live? Ever since he became Catholic, Trent Horn has spent a lot of time answering these questions, trying to explain to friends, family, and total strangers the reasons for his Catholic faith. Some didn't believe in God, or even in the existence of truth. Others said they were spiritual but didn't think you needed religion to be happy. Some were Christians who thought Catholic doctrines over-complicated the pure gospel. And some were fellow Catholics who had a hard time understanding everything they professed to believe on Sunday. Why We're Catholic assembles the clearest, friendliest, most helpful answers that Trent learned to give to all these people and more. Beginning with how we can know reality and ending with our hope of eternal life, it s the perfect way to help skeptics and seekers (or Catholics who want to firm up their faith) understand the evidence that bolsters our belief and brings us joy" --

Becoming Orthodox
Author: Peter E. Gillquist
Publisher: Wolgemuth & Hyatt, Publishers, Incorporated
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
This is the story of a handful of courageous men and their congregations who risked stable occupations, security and the approval of life-long friends to be obedient to God's call. It is also the story of every believer who is searching for the Church. Where Christ is Lord. Where holiness, human responsibility, and the sovereignty of God are preached. Where fellowship is more than a covered-dish supper in the church basement. And where fads and fashions take a backseat to apostolic worship and doctrine.
