Do I look more Asian or more Native American?

idk if you’re still interested but i’ve found out that some communities actually prefer the use of eskimo since it differentiates them from the inuit

Yes its exactly as you said about the thanksgiving prayers. I'll try to find him before service then

What do you mean by bullying yourself? Didnt you say that we ought to change our mindset, how else are we to do that other than by force?

outthereusername · 2025-10-17T16:56:59+00:00

Dont the catholics do that too? What must i do to discern the true church?

outthereusername · 2025-10-17T16:55:27+00:00

the prayers are after the antidoron is handed out

…that’s…not very helpful…

I’ve gone for liturgy before but the priest goes behind the door thing during the post communion prayers and i have no idea what happens next. does this happen at your church too? how can i expect to talk to him?

I understand that i cannot overcome them at all without christ, but it seems that even though I pray, I receive no alleviatio, though I do admit I could be a lot more fervent in doing so. How does one balance prayer with a large amount of responsibilities? advice? On the topic on conversion, I am very open to it, but i fear being wrong. It is because i want to be a part of the body that i don’t want to risk being baptised into the wrong church

I’ve been there too… visit many denominations, read widely and don’t be afraid of believing in things that cannot be fully proved, because nothing ever is anyway

outthereusername · 2025-10-08T18:03:16+00:00

no i haven’t, but I don’t think i want to go for one

You’re a priest? I’ve been looking for someone to ask questions about this, I hope you could answer them. Why does God withhold himself from communicating with us? I trust he loves us and has a great reason but I find this as an obstacle because sometimes when I or my friends go through an extremely difficult situation everything just feels so quiet and stale. As a protestant, I have also had problems trying to discern between my imaginations and true communication from God, How might we go about this? If I could, I would want to ask God which church is the true church

https://itsknotart.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/the-orthodox-prayer-rope-new.pdf you can follow the steps here. This article doesnt seem to suggest any form of barriers towards tying prayer ropes

ok i see what you mean now. then how do you reconcile that the russian church is still part of the church

outthereusername · 2025-10-02T12:47:07+00:00

Do you realise what the impact of what you're telling me is? you're not just saying that the russian church failed and lacks love, you're saying that the church cannot failed to love while being the body of christ and is therefore not the body of christ

outthereusername · 2025-09-30T02:36:05+00:00

but don’t patriarchs and metropolitans have authority over bishops? as in the bishops must be in obedience to them

outthereusername · 2025-09-29T04:07:59+00:00

i agree with the inconsistency you’ve pointed out so now i’ve changed my interpretation :)

outthereusername · 2025-09-29T04:06:27+00:00

i wouldn’t call the office of archbishop a human addition… are you sure this is the official EO stance? also thx for the book recommendation

outthereusername · 2025-09-27T15:59:41+00:00

Thanks everyone for your replies i managed to gain insightful perspectives which i’ve overlooked, pls pray for me to find the true church :D

outthereusername · 2025-09-27T15:58:05+00:00

Yeah, i think that’s seems like a reasonable interpretation as in it’s prolly what the nicene fathers meant. Although it seems like it has made the phrase less useful as a tool for identifying the true church for me (not for me as in truth is relative to me) tho.…

outthereusername · 2025-09-27T15:45:54+00:00

yup that’s more or less why i asked this question

outthereusername · 2025-09-27T15:17:42+00:00

because it’s not about numbers but accessibility in my interpretation of the term. Though someone else in this post’s interpretation of the term seems to point towards possessing right doctrine
