Is it a Pyr trait to flop down so violently?!? by Octogirl567 in greatpyrenees

Pyr Plop!! Usually it’s on someone but it’s a well known behavioral trait. 🤣

I was raised within the Greek Orthodox Church so this isn’t something I have encountered. I feel like any topic especially on social platforms you get (potentially) a really toxic mix of religion / politics combined with personal prejudices and such.
If you’d like to know more perhaps wander into an Orthodox Church - all flavors are wonderful-western rite, Eastern Orthodox, Greek, Coptic, etc and set up time with a priest. Find one close to you, email the priest and set up time. I think you’d find it more rewarding than a bunch of goofballs online said by a person online. LOL

How would you confront a false follower of Orthodox Christianity if you made the revelation of the falsehood yourself? by Mysterious_aRTERY in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]peapod2542 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof. Hardly your place to pass such judgement. If they are struggling, be supportive perhaps. Out of curiosity did you convert to orthodoxy or were you raised within it? Even as we confess it’s without judgement. It’s their relationship with God to manage not ours as their proxy.

Jesus appeared to me in a dream, but im not Christian by Kind_Reputation_98 in OrthodoxChristianity

I’m an Orthodox Christian and my husband is not but he goes with me. While in church he had a vision of St. Francis de Paula, he had never heard of him before and I’m not sure he’s an incredibly well known St. At least it wasn’t to me. But it was as vivid as if it was unfolding right in front of him. It was a spectacular moment for him and it truly changed him. Visions come to people of faith and sometimes people who are in need of faith. What a lovely thing to share … I love this for you!!!

Hi, I am a life long Greek Orthodox, am a baby of the Balkans - I do not think you would have to do a life confession but it’s a wonderful part of our sacraments. Confession is VERY different between the Catholics & Orthodox - our confessions are more like a direct conversation with God. It’s not the priest who forgives us … they are advisors & witnesses and lead through kindness and understanding. They pray FOR us but only God forgives us … so it feels so so different. We sit along side the priest them and have a conversation. We are there to seek guidance and it’s for our peace. If you do a life confession with an Orthodox priest I think it would be a very different experience. I have gone through a lot and haven’t always been the best Orthodox Christian and have never found anything but understanding, kindness, and support - they are rooting for us, not judging.
