| | ORTHODOXY AND ROMAN CATHOLICISM |
 | | Orthodoxy teaches that every bishop, "the living icon of Christ," and his flock constitute the Church in a certain place; or, as St. Ignatius the God-bearer says, the Church of Christ is in the bishop, his priests and deacons, with the people, surrounding the Eucharist in the true faith. | | | In Orthodoxy, Holy Matrimony is not a contract; it is the mysterious or mystical union of a man and woman - in imitation of Christ and the Church - in the presence of "the whole People of God" through her bishop or his presbyter. | | | However, the Orthodox reject the Roman Catholic "dogma of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary," which was defined as "of the faith" by Pope Pius IX, on the 8th of December 1854. |

| | From this fact derives Orthodoxy's self - conscious identity as the church of the seven councils and its sense of mission in preserving the faith of the ancient fathers of the church. | | | Orthodoxy's use of leavened bread in the Eucharist, instead of the unleavened wafers of the West, was mostly a liturgical matter, although it was given theological meaning by the explanation that the leaven signified evangelical joy in contrast to the "Mosaic" regime of Catholic practice. | | | The Orthodox Tradition is the theological tradition, generally associated with the national churches of the eastern Mediterranean and eastern Europe and principally with the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople, whose distinguishing characteristic consists in preservation of the integrity of the doctrines taught by the fathers of the seven ecumenical councils of the fourth through eighth centuries. |

| | Eastern Orthodoxy |
| | Eastern Orthodox churches have played a part in the ecumenical movement from early in the 20th century. | | | Thus, the Eastern Orthodox churches are united in the faith,* and each one has internal autonomy under the primacy* of the patriarchate of Constantinople, the “first among equals”. | | | Eastern Orthodox churches do not believe in “intercommunion”;* in their view, only full communion* has a meaning. |

| | Thus, "to an extent matched by no other Christian communion, Orthodoxy claims that it alone has maintained an unbroken continuity with the apostolic faith of the New Testament, that it alone is the true visible church, and that salvation outside of the Orthodox church is a questionable assumption" (Clendenin, 30). | | | But Orthodoxy does not admit in the all-pure Virgin any individual sin, for that would be unworthy of the dignity of the Mother of God” (67). | | | Clearly, Orthodoxy places great weight on what they believe is the unbroken inward continuity with the church of ancient times. |

| | The church in imperial Russia (from Eastern Orthodoxy) -- Encyclopædia Britannica |
| | The churches in Western Europe, under the authority of the pope at Rome, separated from the churches in the Eastern Roman (or Byzantine) Empire, under the authority of the patriarch (bishop) of Constantinople. | | | Eastern Orthodox Churches are usually identified by nationality and are the result of the Catholicism. | | | The most serious threat of schism in centuries occurred in Eastern Orthodoxy in February 1996 when Bartholomew I, ecumenical patriarch of Constantinople, decreed that the Estonian Orthodox Apostolic Church was autonomous under his authority rather than under the authority of the Russian Orthodox Church. |

| | Living at the Borders: Eastern Orthodoxy and World Disorder |
| | Orthodoxy takes very seriously that quality we call "holiness," both as it applies to God and to all that partakes in God's creation. | | | To be sure, Orthodoxy has used the term "phyletism" to describe the virtual equation of church with ethnicity and has condemned phyletism as heresy. | | | Barely disguising their contempt, they wonder at Ukrainians who can spend hours droning psalms in church while their economy is in a state of collapse, or, even more persistently, profess a horrified puzzlement at peoples, as in former Yugoslavia, who can rape and murder in the name of faith. |

| | Orthodox mission in tropical Africa |
| | Some of the Western missionaries claimed that the Orthodoxy being preached by Fr Reuben Spartas was simply his own invention for the purpose of creating a new heresy, and they said that no white man has such a religion (Zoe 1964:385). | | | He became a church reader and catechist, and in that area the Orthodox Church is the predominant Christian group.22 This is also reminiscent in some ways of the conversion of Prince Vladimir of Kiev in the tenth century, whose people followed him in becoming Christian. | | | After hearing about Orthodoxy, this young man, Paul Budala, wrote to the Orthodox Church in Uganda, and a priest from there, Fr Theodore Nankyamas (now Metropolitan of Kampala) visited the places and baptised twenty people he had instructed (Zoe 1964:369). |

| | open book: A Catholic view of Eastern Orthodoxy |
| | First, the Orthodox insistence on the principle of "one bishop in one city" as the theological basis of their objection to the Eastern Catholics is hardly consistent with their utter disregard for the same principle in organizing their Churches in the Orthodox diaspora. | | | The one is an act of ecclesiastical economy out of pastoral concern; the other is an offence against the unity of the Church. | | | As a Catholic we have to be honest and say that the Orthodox are in an objective state of schism (which is a mortal sin against charity), and that they are heretics on certain issues. |

| | One other aspect pertaining to the early Church must be noted -- for it indicates a significant difference between Eastern and Western understandings of the Church -- and this is the establishment and role of the episcopacy. | | | Whilst individual theologians have speculated about other aspects concerning the Virgin herself, and her glorification, items not directly pertaining to the Gospel of Christ's work of salvation, such as the Assumption and the Immaculate conception, have never been held to have the status of dogma in the Orthodox Church. | | | However the Dictionary only devotes a few lines to this topic: noting that the word is used especially of the Eastern Churches which since ancient times have been collectively described as 'the holy, orthodox, catholic, apostolic Church' -- to distinguish them from other separated Eastern Churches. |

| | Economy (Eastern Orthodoxy) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In the Eastern Orthodox Church, economy is a bishop's discretionary power to dispense with church standards (or "canons", as they are called) that a parish priest would otherwise be required to follow. | | | Such dispensations are made with a view towards putting the spirit before the letter and helping the cause of the salvation of souls. | | | Often it amounts to retroactive recognition granted to sacraments performed in heterodox churches when a person converts to Orthodoxy, or in Orthodox jurisdictions with which the bishop's jurisdiction is not in full communion. |
