Orthodox have domonology too and priests are performing exorcism. Some of them are also to see here. Orthodox will never condamn or send someone to die. "Everything is allowed, but not everything is for your soul's benefit", said Paul the apostle. Forgiving must be priority in our faith, not punishing to death as Roman church did. In our view, Roman church is in schism and shows since centuries the totally opposite Christianity from our Lord, which led to the erosion of faith in the west!

@zapatac1 When the Bible was composed, the letters and the writings, the New Testament was in the Greek of the time. Around 400AD when it was said to have all come together, there was no split in the church so how can publishing be attributed to the Roman Catholics?

Good to see that the true Christian faith is getting popular in the West. The heretic cults of Catholicism and Protestantism are degenerate, that's why their followers are so vulnerable to NWO propaganda and they start following atheism or magical cults.

If someone does not hold fast to this unity of Peter, can he imagine that he still holds the faith? If he (should) desert the chair of Peter upon whom the Church was built, can he still be confident that he is in the Church?" St. Cyprian Of Carthage ("On the Unity of the Catholic Church," 251 A.D.)

I think there is an editing error on this video, it seems to not be right, you maybe might want to re-record it, or at least re-watch it to see what be wrong (just letting you know!)

@Philflash but, I know as well as you know.. as you said nothing with humanity is perfect..

[TyrellTLyles]

@Philflash I don't have anything against the catholic church or any part of the body of christ unless of course they do something that jesus tells us not to do but, the only reason.. I critize the catholic church at all is because I like it.. but.. it's just certain things that I don't understand.. yet, the lord has led me to A Roman Catholic Church to Attend this weekened and I'll go if it's his will...but, it's just when you hear things like." we are the true church" it makes it seem perfect

[Philflash]

@TyrellTLyles I grew up in the church and have looked at other spiritual paths. I remain to this day with the Orthodox Christian faith. The Church is rich in history and many other things. People who have not experienced the full spectrum are quick to criticize certain things (Icons, services, vestments, etc.) Nothing with humanity is perfect because we were given free will. My objective is to present information. If I were to evangelize people, I would not know where to start.

[TyrellTLyles]

@Philflash we want to make sure, that we are making the right decision and that it is going to please the lord, not upset him..but, if my own brother or sister in the lord..isn't going to help me.. maybe the catholic church isn't the place for me..I hope you make it to heaven..just like I hope all the belivers do..may peace be with you..

[TyrellTLyles]

@Philflash help me to understand..and belive if i'm wrong..why leave me hanging? would jesus do that? i'm sorry i'm not interested in your volumes that you could write..those won't get me to New Jeruslem(Revelation 21).. i'm trying to get closer to the lord jesus christ..and if your not trying to help..why even bother call him the master? even your not doing what he says? Don't you see, alot of us are scared to join the catholic church because, we don't want to be deceived

[TyrellTLyles]

@Philflash or your faith it's just.. i'm curious of why instead of you trying to help me to understand Catholism..you just let me be lost.. is that really a christian thing to do? or would someone who truly belives in the lord do that? If the catholic church is the true chruch, why aren't you explaining to me why? so, that I may join and be saved..if it is true..I mean don't you understand your not the only one trying to get ot heaven? Why don't you help your brothers and sisters?
