Thomas Deretich and Name-Worshipping

[Lazarún Zalónir]

What an embarrassment, then. I wish this former Priest would tone down his rhetoric, equivocally reject Name-Worshipping as a Heresy and regularize his conduct toward Bishops. Then he could do some good for True Orthodoxy. I think he knows a lot about the Slavic world. From the sound of those proceedings, Matthew Raphael Johnson hasn't developed yet the proper humility and obedience to his superiors. Maybe he could go to a GOC Monastery for awhile to learn these virtues, such as the new St John Monastery in New York ?

yeah the name worshipping heresy isnt what you think it is:

I did not leave ecumenist churches for the purpose of being ecumenist towards every heretic who calls himself anti-ecumenist. Frankly, I am tired of Thomas's nonsense.

Well, Thomas mentioned Lazar Puhalo who is WO and a heretic.

Mentioning Plato doesnt mean i am a Platonist, what a bunch of nonsense, just say you don't like him or me.

Just a minute.
What is the connection between Name=Worshipping, Hocna and Thomas Deretich ? Sorry I am slow here.

I'm glad this old thread got resurrected. It's great to refresh the memory.

I did not say HOCNA is ecumenist. I said they're heretics.

HOCNA is heretical, and Thomas is a heretic. Name worship is heresy, and so is taking saints off the calendar so you can change the teaching of the Church by changing which writings are accepted. And Thomas does not merely mention Puhalo and Romanides--he uses these flaming heretics as authorities in matters of theology.

It is rather telling that after repeatedly not listening to the bishops, whether good or bad ones, you feel the need to but into discussions about the deposition of heretics for synodally condemned heresy, with youtube garbage about the heresy not being heresy, but the Orthodox being supposedly heretics instead.

You have fallen into heresy precisely because you never listen to clergy, yet you believe anything at all from the rest. Those who believe anything they read, are better off illiterate.
