| | Praxis (Orthodox) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The term is used in Eastern Orthodox theology to refer to the practice of the faith, especially to worship. |  | | This is found in the Scriptures (1 Cor 11:2, 2 Thes 2:15) and the Church Fathers, and is linked with the term praxis in Orthodox theology. |  | | Orthodox sources maintain that in the West, Christianity has been reduced "to intellectual, ethical or social categories", whereas (correct) worship is fundamentally important in our relationship to God, forming the faithful into the Body of Christ and providing the path to "true religious education". |

| | ORTHODOX SPIRITUALITY 6-7-Conclusion |
 | | Within the whole of patristic tradition it is clear that praxis is the purification of the heart's passions and theoria is both the illumination of the nous and the vision of the uncreated glory of God. |  | | Praxis, therefore, is the purification of the heart; this constitutes genuine repentance, as proclaimed by St. John the Baptist, Christ Himself and, of course, by all of His Apostles, because repentance is the indispensable prerequisite for one to experience the Kingdom of God. |  | | Orthodox spirituality differs markedly from the "spiritualities" of the East and the West. |

| | Phronema |
 | | Orthodox theology teaches that a faith is true if it heals spiritual sickness, and brings the faithful to "behold the uncreated Light". |  | | Phronema is a Greek term that is used in Eastern Orthodox theology to refer to mindset or outlook; it is the Orthodox mind. |  | | undiminished and vibrant throughout life, a continually verified daily experience," [1] "a growing feeling for and understanding of God's and the practice of Orthodox piety — Orthodox Worship and behavior." [1] The phronema is vested in tradition "against all heresies and schisms of all times". |

| | Theology of Icons: A Protestant perspective |
 | | The icon is found in the interior of the Orthodox churches and is used throughout the liturgy in the official church worship as well as in private devotion. |  | | It was characterised by critical rationalism and was directed against the hierarchy of the Orthodox church, her dogmas, sacraments and the veneration of icons - their misuse among the laity and the immorality of the clergy and monks. |  | | The existence of icons within the Eastern Orthodox Church testifies to the evolution of artistic, religious, and psychological aspects of human beings, who although separated from God after the Fall, have sought God through various means. |

| | Acquiring an Orthodox Mindset: Introduction |
 | | The orthodox mind is expressed by the dogmas of the Church, because, on the one hand, the dogmas express the life which the Church has and the revelation which the saints have received, and on the other hand, they lead the passionate people and the babes in Christ to unity and communion with God. |  | | We must say at this point that the theology of the Church is ascetic, that is to say, it defines the methods of cure in order for man to attain deification....So the dogmas express the revelation and the life which the Church has and they also cure man and lead him towards deification. |  | | This is the way of the life of the Orthodox Tradition and the way of life of Christ's life. |

 | | You can't become an Orthodox Christian by saying a prayer, by making a "decision for Christ", or by kneeling at the altar at a revival meeting or crusade event after being told about the Four Spiritual Laws. |  | | Orthodox Christians recognize that not everyone - not even all leaders - are called to be evangelists. |  | | My first impression of Orthodoxy was that if they spent all their time on repentance and worship, then they must not care if the world ever hears about Christ. |

This very small book provides an excellent snap-shot of the spiritual practices of the Orthodox Church and explains how the Life in Christ is affirmed, maintained, and nurtured in the daily activities of the Orthodox Christian. |  | | One cannot understand the worship and spirituality of the Orthodox Church without understanding the place that Lent plays in the life of the faithful. |  | | These books are geared more for those readers who are encountering the Orthodox Church and Faith for the first time but they are also very good resources for any Orthodox Christian who simply wants to "brush up" on the essential tenets of the Faith. |

 | | I would say, in a descriptive way, that the orthodox believers carry faith, tradition, their ecclesiastical life and civilization with them, because these aspects are also a way of life but at the same time they are the constituents of their identity. |  | | In addition, the bonds of faith, worship and tradition that exist with the Orthodox Churches of the Middle East, as well as the intimate relations of cooperation with the other Christian Churches and denominations, ascribe an important position to the Church of Cyprus. |  | | This purpose is already being served institutionally, firstly by the participation of the Church of Cyprus in the Middle East Council of Churches as a full member, and secondly by its participation either in the Conference of European Churches, or in the World Council of Churches. |

| | Sabbatai Zevi and the Bektashi Sufi |
 | | One thing which has not been made much mention of is the non-orthodox Bektashi praxis. |  | | In many regards, Bektashis and Alevis (I make an artificial distinction) are regarded as beyond the limits of acceptible Muslim behavior. |  | | In my reading not much has been made of this affiliation and it would be interesting to get some anecdotal information from our contemorary Turkish Sabbatean brothers on the list. |
