Dear friends, God bless you all and have mercy on you with
His everlasting love, everlasting mercy which endureth
forever, in Christ Jesus the One Mediator between God and
Man. Amen.
Wisdom! Let us attend!
Let us read:
"With their benighted historiographies and jaundiced
Weltanschauungen, Evangelicals remain abysmally unfamiliar
with Orthodox Christianity and typically denigrate it either as
an ossified variation of Roman Catholicism or as a pharisaical
cult. (1) Such responses are nothing more than instances of
theological projection, the defensive ascription to another
faith of unsavory traits hidden within one's own religious
values." (page 5: Hierodeacon Gregory. (1994). THE
CHURCH, TRADITION, SCRIPTURE, TRUTH, AND CHRISTIAN
LIFE: Some Heresies of Evangelicalism and an Orthodox
Response. Etna, CA: Center for Traditionalist Orthodox
Studies.).
