Re: How are bishops in the ROCOR and in the GOC-K espousing ecumenism?

St. Photius lived long before the Great Schism of 1054. His position cannot be compared with that of St. Matthew as the Roman Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church during the time of St. Photius had a strained relationship, but there was no schism at that time. The Catacomb Bishops also cannot be...

Re: Seraphim Rose on the Matthewites

Yes, the point being there were no New Calendarist bishops during his lifetime. Do you have a reference to bishop Matthew being asked to ride a donkey to meet a New Calendar bishop? I would like to read that.

Re: How are bishops in the ROCOR and in the GOC-K espousing ecumenism?

Sorry, but I'm re-starting this thread: can someone give me a citation for GOC-K currently espousing Cyprianism? I can't find one. Read the sermons of GOC-K Bishop Auxentios of Etna and Portland. He was rebuked by Vladimir Moss for continuing to espouse Cyprianism. By the way, Bishop Auxentios is a...

Re: Seraphim Rose on the Matthewites

Remember that the New Calendarists were the ones to create the schism in the first place. They pontificated this New Calendar from the throne of Athens and from the Throne of the EP, who still persists in pontificating ecumenism and the New Calendar to placate the Roman Pope. Read the life of St. N...

Re: Seraphim Rose on the Matthewites

Dear Issakos, It is good to see that you are still among the living. Which synod are you now embracing? It sounds like you might be accepting the position of Archbishop Kallinikos and his union with the former SiR, but you address neither the Metropolitan of Florina, Chrysostomos, nor St. Matthew a...

Re: Seraphim Rose on the Matthewites

HEY guys! It seems that there is one major issue being overlooked here- the temptation from the right. Now, holding to a strict position is not the same as being a pharisee. I myself would agree that after 1924 the Archbishop of Athens proved HIMSELF to be schismatic, but if you will remember, he hi...
