There is a lot of good information in this video. I’m going to do the research because I don’t agree with more the half of what he is saying. Thanks

Happy New Year

God bless everyone

Does this lecturer have permission from the One True Church to give this lecture? Where is the Imprimatur from Rome?????

No orthodoxy is still a "secret" It feels wild i didnt find it till my 20s and for years i thought it was a form of roman catholism

Hey does anyone know the link where I can get the manual to go along with the lessons

Veneration of images is a huge problem that gpes against scriptures as do rituals saving you...

Unfortunately you left out vital foundational information! In order to understand Who Jesus Christ is it is vital to understand that the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ is the Messiah that the Prophets throughout the Old Testament referred to! The Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ is the Creator of mankind, the One and only True God, the Truine God, GOD THE FATHER, GOD THE SON, GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT. The New Testament is the fulfilment of the Old Testament, hence by leaving out the Old Testament what you are teaching has no foundational history...

is the course manual still available somewhere?

I cannot find the course manual. Is it me or it isn't available. I tried in the "St. Elijah Antiochian Orthodox Christian Church" website and didn't find there either. Any advice? Thanks in advance! I really think this is valuable! Christ is Risen!

I left Protestantism for Orthodoxy after 24 years as an Evangelical

is there a manual fot this teaching

Amazing

I really appreciate this video being online. From what I gather I think it was filmed in 2004 and uploaded in 2015. I just finished this video and I am looking forward to seeing the other videos in the series. I have been looking into orthodox theology for over a year now, and have learned many things, I really appreciate this presentation giving a historical overview of the church. The more I learn about orthodox Christianity, The more I like it. I have a close friend who is a deacon and is studying and training to become an orthodox Christian priest. I'm going to send him this link, I think he will appreciate this presentation. Thank you, God Bless.

I am also converted from protestantism to orthodoxy online, I was praying since long for the one true apostolic church once I thought it is roman catholic but I didn't stay there even for few weeks however I found orthodox church where the teaching of the church pierced my heart with profound love and wisdom. Never skip a single day to listen to early church elders or monks wisdom. So blessed to be an orthodoxy☦️❤️

Does anyone know what the song at the start was?

What about we Oriental Orthodox?

Kyiv was a thriving city 800 years before Mockba. (MOSCOW) Look up Kyivan Rus, St Vladimir and St. OLGA.

I'm still trying to find the money the Orthodox priests absconded with

This is really awesome how you made history come alive, but I wonder how the Catholic retelling of the history differs

I LOVE this!! 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 Thank you!

I really appreciate your help and insights. I will also start my journey with the real Church of the Christians.

This is amazing!! My brain is melting.

Where can i get the manual book that is shown in the begining of the video?

O ONE TRUE RELIGION It is only logical that there would be one true religion. This is in harmony with the fact that the true God is a God, "not of disorder but of peace." (1 Corinthians 14:33) The Bible says that actually there is only "one faith." (Ephesians 4:5) Who, then, are the ones who form the body of true worshippers today? We do not hesitate to say that they are Jehovah's Witnesses.

It's 2023, does anyone know if the guidebook he mentioned is available anywhere?

The church Jesus built and is continuing to build till today , are the ones who are led by Christ. The pastors are chosen by Christ alone not man. Ephesians chapter 4:11 is clear. Get out of organized religion. Know who you are in Christ. Each of us needs to have a personal relationship with our Father God through the Holy Spirit to guide you daily. God Bless you and your family

Just sent this series to my Protestant friend (I am a convert, too) who is horrified that I pray to Saints. Lord have mercy on us.

Glory to God ❤

What is the name of the song at the beginning of the video?

This video converted me to Catholicism.

Any chance of fixing the audio

Is the paper-copy of the guide still available..?

Between what the Roman Catholic pope did at Assisis and recently at Sianai with the preposterous ten new commandments I an gravely concerned I'm in the wrong boat . If it wasn't for the Maronite Lebanese I'd become Orthodox . Also there are no Orthodox church's where I live . Still can't work out how the Maronites remained with Rome after the schism .

Is it still possible to get the manual?

The Word Fulfils When The Messiah was speaking in Matthew 24, he was not addressing the church, but Israel. When he came the first time, it was for the Lost Sheep of The House of Israel (Ezekiel 34, especially verse 16)"He came to seek that which was lost..." and in Matthew 10:5,6)"These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." This is when he sent the twelve. Later in chapter 15:24 concerning the Gentile woman, he said "...I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel." ---- When he came, he came as The Good Shepherd for the LOST SHEEP of Israel (Ezk 34; John 10); as The Prophet to speak God's Word (Deu 18:15-18); as The Messiah - to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, opening up of the prison to those that were bound (Is 61:1; Luke 4:17-19); as the Sacrificial Servant and Lamb of God (Is52:13-15; 53:1-12; John1:29,36) to take away the sin of the world. This was the first part of his earthly ministry: Israel had to be given their opportunity to receive him as their King, but they did not; therefore, he was their Rejected King - but will be received later. The church is a separate group from Israel. When The Messiah came, he taught his disciples to preach The Gospel of The Kingdom (aka: Millennial Kingdom; Messianic Kingdom) - Israel could have received their King and could have entered into the Messianic Kingdom or Kingdom Age. They did not. During the ministry, Jesus Christ taught his disciples (when he sent them to preach) the Gospel of the Kingdom (Matthew 10:7,8) And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. (Nothing to do with him dying). In Matthew 24, I know that many use this chapter to address the Church, but Christ was addressing Israel. In Daniel 9:24-27, God was addressing Daniel's people (not the Church). The angel, Gabriel came when Daniel was praying for Israel while they were still in captivity: there was no Church. And when Gabriel came, he said to Daniel in verse 24 "SEVENTY WEEKS are determined upon THY PEOPLE..." When Jesus Christ died, that was the end of the SIXTY NINTH WEEK - we are currently in the period of GRACE: they 70th Week of Daniel consists of the 7-Year Period in which Israel would make a covenant with THE BEAST. No Church. When Jesus Christ died, here are some of the sacrifices he fulfilled: 1) Leviticus 1 - The Burnt Offering; 2) Levitucus 2 - The Meat Offering (or grain); 3) Leviticus 3 -The Peace Offering; 4) Leviticus 4 - The Sin Offering; 5) Leviticus 5 - The Trespass Offering; 6) Leviticus 16 - The Atonement Sacrifice... and there are many more. When he died on the cross as the Suffering Servant and Lamb of God, these are some of the prophecies that became fulfilled. There is much more, but I need to stop. Salvation is of GRACE (God's Redemption At Christ's Expense) - and not of works. Paul mentions that in Ephesians (2:5,8) - and we have access to this grace through faith as Paul mentions in Romans several times, and in Galatians 2:16 "Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified." Paul mentions it other times as well. The Apostle Paul taught "The Gospel of Grace" - Acts 20:24)"...which I have received of The Lord Jesus, to testify the GOSPEL OF THE GRACE OF GOD." Paul's Gospel, he called in Romans Chapter 1: 1)Verse 1 "...Gospel of God," 2)Verse 9 "...Gospel of His Son..." 3)Verse 15 "...the Gospel..." 4)Verse 16 "...Gospel of Christ..." - And Paul preached it in Acts 13(:38, 39) "Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses." This is the Gospel of Grace. During this period of grace in which we are living in: we are in 2000 years of GRACE. Once the Church is taken up (as the Bride of Christ) there is a place in New Jerusalem which is above; and while The Church is taken up, God will work with Israel again. The Church has the indwelling of The Holy Ghost (1Cor3,6; 2Cor6; Eph1) - Israel did not have that. Once we have been saved, The Holy Ghost indwells us. This is a special gift: the Gift of The Holy Ghost. In the Old Testament times, The Holy Ghost would come down upon men, but would stay for a limited time. Once the rapture occurs, those that heard the message and rejected it - those are the ones that God will reject. In 2Thessalonians 2:7-12, Paul explains it, especially in verses 10-12 "And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness." These are those that heard the Gospel of The Grace of God, but rejected it. Many of these instead listened to the Prince of the Power of The Air in Ephesians 2:2 "Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:" Right now that wicked prince uses: "Mainstream Media; Politics; Education; Humanism; and other things" - this is going on right now. Those that have never heard 'The Gospel of The Grace' may have an opportunity to hear 'The Gospel of The Kingdom' - where they could be saved. They won't be part of the Church, but they will be saved. Many of them will die for standing for the truth, but they will be saved. Get ready now. The Rapture of The Church will happen soon: it could be in 3 years, 30 years, or even 300 years from now - but it could be even sooner. Believe what the Apostle Paul said when he preached: Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses. [Acts 13:38,39]

Now someone I talked to said that Ephesus was one of the big five patriarchates before Jerusalem. Is this true?

Oh

the church which Jesus mean we are .because as he says on his word in bible we are his church if we destroyed it he will destroyed us!

A rather biased view of Catholics and Protestants. But maybe no one expected a simple presentation of objective facts. He plays a little fast and loose with his interpretations, especially of changes wrought by Constantine and Charlemagne. If this is your first intro to Church history, you really need to expand your horizons. Go to your state university and check out the library and the bookstore. Don't accept just a single viewpoint. Hopefully, his theology is going to be better.

Dear Deacon Ezra how many I get the notes pdf you mentioned? The serminar is amazing, very informative. Thanks!

I need to find that chant at the beginning of the video

I like old churchianity but in our place here in the Philippines has no orthodox Christian church, could you pray. 🙏 Amen ☦️

Christianity didn't remain unified all the way to 1054. You totally missed the Chalcedonian schism in 431 and 451. That's when the Egyptian, Ethiopian, Eritrean, Armenian, Cilicia, Syriac, and Indian churches broke away over Christological differences. Kind of a huge chunk of Christianity.

After a long road of church's and belief systems, I am finally coming home to Orthodoxy. This is a complete overview of the early church. Thank you for sharing it. שלום
