Brother Nathanael Kapner is a recognized monastic with the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Of Russia (ROCOR) where he is officially recognized as a "poslushnik"/"novice" monk.
From the website you posted.


Interestingly, the Orthodox Church Outside of Russia is also outside of Christianity.

You don't have to tell much truth to tell more than what most Americans who claim to be Christian would tell you.

As far as those who actually are Christian, I think you aim your guns a little prematurely.

In America there are many people who claim to be Christian, but they are not. If they continue as they are now, Jesus will say to them, "I never knew you."

Now, here's the issue with Catholics and the Orthodox:

What does it mean to have the Gospel?

What is the Gospel?

For the first question it seems most people cite works. "Having the Gospel means you do good things, love Jesus, and sing songs." Not so.

The second question many say something along the lines of, "Jesus is a pretty swell guy, here pray a prayer and accept Jesus into your life."

Neither of this is true.

So, as it pertains to Catholicism and Orthodoxy, I ask those questions of you, and then of them.

What is the Gospel?

What does it mean to have the Gospel?


Is it because different kind of bible he believes in ?
If by kind you mean they favor a translation, no.

If by kind you mean, they use the apocrypha as being inspired and inerrant, then that is an extension of another issue, not the cause.

But Roman Catholics also believe in a different bible and was also altered many years ago,[/quote]
Yes.

many Christians have pagan Roots and celebrate these practises..
I don't know what you mean by "these practices", are you speaking specifically or just generally?

Well, Eating pork, celebrating Christmas and easter ,Halloween, The pope...he is and idol, The All seeying eyes in many churches around the world, who is telling the truth ?
Does nathaneal Read from a different bible then i do ? The more i seem to know about Christians the more i am confused about it and start thinking there is no real Christianity....thats how i feel....the more i talk to christians the more i feel alienated from it, so my connection is to God and not humans, they are lost imo.
And the Zionist Christians make no sence to me at all ?! If you knew the Father you would never listen to Zionist ore praise the Destruction of European heritage and Culture.
They can say i am racist all i want but letting Europe become more Islamic is not part of beeing a Christian..Letting all these things happen is not Christianity for me.
