The Holy Spirit proceedeth from the Father. Amen.
Jesus Christ said:
"But when the Comforter is come, Whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the
Spirit of truth, Who proceedeth from the Father, He shall testify of Me". John 15:26.
St. Photios said: (in: Synodicon On the Holy Spirit): "To those who confess that the Holy
Spirit proceeds from the Father alone, with no intermediary, just as the Son is begotten
from the Father alone, with no intermediary, according to the testimony of God the Word
Himself to His apostles at the season of His Passion for the salvation of the world when He
said, "But when the Comforter is come, Whom I will send unto you from the Father, even
the Spirit of truth, Who proceedeth from the Father, He shall testify of Me", [John 15:27]
and to those who accept unaltered this divine testament of our God and Saviour, Jesus
Christ, ETERNAL MEMORY."
Saint Photios (In: Synodicon of the Holy Spirit) says:
"To those who undertake to dogmatize contrary to our Master Christ and who declare
that the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father and from the Son, from the Son directly
and with no intermediary, but indirectly from the Father and with an intermediary, that
is, just as the Son proceeds directly from the Father, so the Spirit proceeds from the Son;
and to those who dare to say that the Son is the immediate cause of the Spirit while
the Father is the removed cause, as though the Spirit were operative from the Son but
only potentially from the Father and who thus introduce degrees and successions of cause
and effect in the simple and indivisible Trinity, ANATHEMA."
God save us all from the Filioque heresy. Amen. Lord have mercy: AMEN.
