  • @adamantis4657 Thank you brother!! God bless you!!

  • @adamantis4657 Yes he is. I actually get to see him this Sunday!! He is celebrating Divine Liturgy at a Church that is being consecrated. This will be the first time where I will get to meet a bishop. It's a rare experience.

  • @magnus56j: Ok - try it out! U will see the difference. God bless u and keep u!

    U know Blessed Seraphim Rose spoke also about those things, and many others - even greeks. Such tendencies are not good.

    They completely destroy the proper behaviour during the Holy and Divine Services. And they are so precious to us orthodox. We should keep them blameless as they are.

  • @adamantis4657 Yes, I'll give it a try. I am Greek Orthodox, but that was what I was exposed to first when I found Orthodoxy.

  • @adamantis4657 Okay, yes definitely. I'll go to a traditional parish. I just wanted to make sure you didn't think I was in schism. I agree, there should be no pews, organs, or other innovations, and I hope that Orthodoxy resolves this issue soon in America so that there is no future schism.

  • @magnus56j: Why do not visit a parish of the ROCA?

    There are many parishes of the ROCA in USA. They are very traditional.

  • @magnus56j: On the LORD's day we should not bend our knees!

    Yes, this was ordered by an Ecumenical Synod. Because the LORD's Day is the day of Resurrection and we pray only while standing because to stand is a symbol of the resurrection of CHRIST. But we make small prostrations.

    Archbishop Demetrios? Hm - is he from the Greek Orthodox Church of America? Well I dot know all details but that church is very modernised.

    Go and search here on youtube!

  • @magnus56j: There is NO Schism yet!

    But as I told u, there are many modernist parishes there. IT IS NOT RIGHT when the Priests allow Pews, Organs, and other innovations.

    But that's the way it is.

    Such things are forbidden and no ORTHODOX should accept them. We should co-celebrate with Priests and not passivly sit on chairs.

    Go to a traditional parish and u will see the difference! Try it for once.

  • @adamantis4657 On Sundays we don't kneel, but we do bow and make prostrations. I usually stand the whole time except for the homily. What is your thought about Archbishop Demetrios of America? Do you see him in schism?

  • @magnus56j: PEWS:

    In whole Russia u will not find a church with PEWS, also in Serbia u will not find any church with Pews. In USA there are many orthodox churches without Pews: many ROCA parishes, many OCA parishes have no Pews.

    It depends if u want to worshipp God and adore HIM how it is due to HIM - that means ORTHO - DOX - right GLORY - to give GOD the right Glory.

    Do u make prostrations? Do u kneel? Do u bow down? this all is a part of true worship.
