Sorry, I meant the Eastern Church, not just Eastern Europe.

You cannot say Eastern Europe because Serbia,Russia etc were granted a patriach by the Greek Orthodox Church whom St.Andrew founded,you can however say the church of constonople (greek),alexandria (coptic/egypt),church of jeruselum and Antioch (syria)referring to it by the early church terms were the churches who kept the original church apostolic teachings and doctrines.

and so He could not have taken on our whole human flesh in the truest way in order to save the human race

3. The Catholic church also began to believe in another new doctrine, which states that the Virgin Mary was conceived and born without sin. The early Church, including Eastern Orthodoxy, believes that the Virgin Mary was capable of sinning, but she successfully resisted sin her whole life. If she had been created without sin, then this would mean that she was not exactly human, and therefore Christ's Flesh was not exactly human,

over the centuries until the 9th-10th centuries when more and more popes began to declare it divinely inspired. This phrase was recognized as creating a false perception of the Trinity, as though there is a hierarchical structure to the Trinity, rather than a perfect Triad. This is why Eastern Orthodoxy cannot accept this new doctrine.

2. In the 5th century a new doctrine surfaced which was called the Filioque. The Filioque is the name of an additional phrase of the Nicene Creed that says, "and the Son". The Nicene Creed originally said, "I believe.....in the Holy Spirit....who proceeds from the Father." The Filioque makes the Creed say, "I believe....in the Holy Spirit....who proceeds from the Father and the Son." This additional phrase became more and more accepted in the west

because these ideals were never part of the early Church. Early Christian bishops, including Eastern Orthodox ones, have always utilized a consensus of opinions and spiritual authority, usually by council or synod. It is this wider perspective of decision-making that is considered infallible r egarding matters of doctrine and absolute authority

1. One of the most important differences between the Catholics and Orthodox is the doctrine that the popes of Rome have absolute authority over all other bishops throughout Christianity and that they are infallible in matters of doctrine. Both dogmas had never existed until the 9th century, when more and more Roman popes were seeking to assert their spiritual authority as the supreme expression of the Faith. Eastern Orthodoxy cannot accept such beliefs

I want to clarify for you...I recommend doing a Wiki search for this one. What I personally know from my study of church and music history, is that there were two leaders, each claiming legitimacy as pope (a positon Christ gave to Simon Peter). The "Eastern" pope became the Patriarch of that division, a position still handed down today. Fundamental differences: very few... slightly older traditions do persist in the East, though. Several moves by both divisions regualarly seek to reconcile... |
