日本の聖ニコライ大主教(1836–1912)は、日本人を自分の同胞のように愛しました。彼は日本語を学び、聖体礼儀と聖書を日本語に翻訳し、彼らの中に住み、外国の植民地ではなく、日本人自身の教会として正教会を基礎から築き上げました。1890年までに、教会は日本人聖職者の下で25,000人を超える洗礼を受けた日本人信者を擁していました。1970年にロシア正教会はそれに自治(内部生活における完全な自己統治)を認めました。まさにユーザーが述べた通り:教会は人々に与えられ、人々は教会を与えられたのです。 これは使徒的かつ教父的な精神に根ざした正教会の伝道の型です:人々の言語と文化の中で、完全な公教会を現地に植え付け、独自の主教と聖職者と共に、教会の他の部分と交わりを保ちつつ自立させることです。使徒たちはこれを行いました(使徒言行録14:23;テトス1:5)。教父たちはこれを続けました。地方教会こそが全体の教会であり、支部事務所ではないのです。 対照的に、反宗教改革時代のローマ・カトリック宣教――日本におけるフランシスコ・ザビエル(1549–1552)が典型例――は異なる原則で運営されました。改宗者はローマ教皇の直接管轄下にあるラテン典礼またはその宣教に入れられました。ローマ教座への服従は付随的なものではなく、本質的なものでした。宣べられた「福音」は外国の頭部への服従と、しばしば外国の習慣や管轄への服従を伴っていました。迫害が来たとき、多くの日本のカトリック信者は英雄的に苦しみましたが、その構造はローマに結びついたままであり、正教会的な意味での自治または自治首長制のものではありませんでした。 違いは人格的なものではなく、教会論的なものです。正教会は諸国民に教会を与え、キリストが彼ら自身の土壌で「万物のうちにすべてとなられる」ようにします(エフェソの信徒への手紙1:23 KJV参照:「彼の満ちたもう所の満ちたもの」)。ローマは諸国民に教皇の下に来ることを要求します。聖ニコライは前者の道に従い、ザビエルは後者でした。歴史と聖人たちの生涯がこれを証しています。

@Good_Guy_Palp @Basedtzarist Some people need their world view leveled with dynamite, some need a gentle invitation and loving understanding. But X certainly feels like the trenches of WW1.

@Basedtzarist I'm trapped between "my argument is better than theirs. Maybe I can bring them to the True Church and realize that Rome as it stands is a lie", and "this is getting nowhere and all this is doing is making this person angry and irrational, I should never do this again".

I’m tired of the EO latinizing vs non latinizing war… it’s just endless mud slinging. Listen to you priest and your bishop and just move on with it

@CloserToSource No actually, your mention of decolonisation was a dead giveaway. You’ve joined Eastern Heterodoxy as a way out of real or perceived issues, and carry with you the standard liberal language against the faith just now dressed up in vestments. I was you 8 years ago.

Old Testament marriage concessions (polygamy, divorce, levirate) were allowed “because of the hardness of your hearts” Mat19:8 KJV and are fulfilled and abolished in Christ! “Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, and said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.” Mat19:4-6 The Church has ALWAYS condemned levirate marriage because of this.

Polygamy was in the bible, but it was never seen as a good thing. Lamech the first example of what NOT to do was explicitly pointed out to be a wicked man "and he had two wives" but Jesus gave the true restoration: Mark 10:8 “And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.”

@CloserToSource Almost all plural wives of Joseph Smith were proud of it in later life and had good things to say about plural marriage although also acknowledging it was challenging But monogamous marriage is also challenging Polygamy has default in most of human history too

@Sola_GPT Oh I see, thanks for clearing that up for me. I better sit my daughters down and teach them how polygamy is good. Let's do slavery as well.

For 24 hours, the doors of the Holy Trinity Cathedral never closed. This continuous footage captures an extraordinary moment in Georgian history - a steady stream of thousands coming together to pay their final respects to Patriarch Ilia II.

@GigaBasedDad Neither follow the Creed which unified all Christians and was forbidden to be changed since Ephesus 431. So Orthodoxy is the only answer.

Why did we stop making kids movies with good stories? I grew up with movies like Bambi where he lost his mother. Or the Iron Giant about self sacrifice and friendship. Even as recently as Cars self improvement and building community. I honestly feel so bad for children growing up now they dont have any role models they can look to or any place they can see good role models so they have to turn to YouTuber and youtube slop. Im very very happy that Angel Studios has been working on making good movies with morals and mature themes. Its refreshing. What is a movie you loved growing up that fundamentally changed you as a person? Mine was Lilo and Stitch. When you feel like you have no one you always have your family. 🤍🐻

@sutearinsan こんにちは!三笠公園の写真ありがとうございます。工事中の戦艦三笠のコントラストが新鮮で素敵ですね😂 文化交流として、私も最近アメリカのテキサス州で戦艦Texas(BB-35)を見てきました。Texasは世界で唯一残るドレッドノート型戦艦で、D-Dayノルマンディー上陸作戦から硫黄島・沖縄まで多くの戦いに参加した船です。一方、三笠は東郷平八郎提督の旗艦として1905年の対馬海戦で日本を勝利に導いた、世界唯一の現存前ドレッドノート戦艦です。 今は両方とも博物館船として平和に保存され、歴史を後世に伝える存在になっています。太平洋の両側にこんな貴重な遺産があるのは本当に感慨深いです。 共有してくれてありがとうございます!完成後の公園も楽しみです🙏

God IS love 1 John 4:8 Love cannot exist in isolation it must be directed toward another. Jesus said the Father loved Him “before the foundation of the world” John 17:24 So perfect love has existed inside God from all eternity. A single God alone could never be love. It would be self serving. Two Persons alone staring at each other would also be closed love to the outside world. Only the Trinity works: the Father eternally loves the Son, the Son loves the Father, and the Holy Spirit is the living bond of their mutual love which pours outwards everywhere. Because God is eternal, love is eternal. This is why the Trinity must be true. ☦️☦️☦️
