Yes, absolutely. For example, St. Cyril of Alexandria used it when he addressed Capreolus as "the most reverend and pious Capreolus, Bishop of Carthage" and as the "most reverend metropolitan".

Re: Ordination of St. Photius I

What you are reading on New Advent i...

Re: Glorification of José Munoz by the ROCOR-MP?
Yes, that latter is why I felt quite shocked that the MP would be promoting Brother Jose. It seems hypocritical, assuming that this suspicion is true. One can not imagine any other culprit or any other motivation except to dim the light of Rocor. That Icon brought a lot of happiness, consolation an...

Re: Old Believers and Old Calendarists
Back to Bp Daniel for a minute. So he was allowed to continue as an Old Believer through his 5 years of Jordanville ? How did he manage to attend services, then ? Assuredly, it's better that this Old Believer, formerly known as Dmitri Borisovich Alexandrov, joined Rocor than elsewhere. But I though...

Re: Old Believers and Old Calendarists
So I found a reference to the sign of the cross being made with three fingers in St. (? I think he's a saint) Ælfric of Eynsham 's homilies. He reposed in 1010 A.D., a really compelling piece of evidence that shows how the Orthodox-Catholic Church was fine with either method of making the sign of t...

Old Believers and the Holy Fire
Found this interesting bit of information: ON MIRACULOUS FIRE Question: Why don't old-orthodox christians recognize the coming down of the miracolous fire? Priest Gleb Bobkov: For the reason that miracles are not proof of the truth. Lord sends miracles among different Christian shrines, including th...
