AN EXACT EXPOSITION OF THE ORTHODOX FAITH, BOOK I

>>509697962
Our Holy Father Euphrosynos (Euphrósynos)1 the Cook was born into a peasant family, and had no schooling, but he was truly devout and faithful.

As an adult, he became a cook, and was able to save money out of his expenses by depriving himself, but only for the sake of almsgiving. His position as a cook permitted him to eat the best food first, but he never took advantage of this privilege. He ate his greens and olives gratefully, while the most appetizing meats and most tantalizing fish were cooking before him.

Later Euphrosynos went to a monastery, where his obedience was to work in the kitchen as a cook. In contrast to the meals that he used to prepare in secular hotels, he made very plain food in the monastery. To those who complained and mocked him, Euphrosynos meekly replied: "Good cooking is not useful for attaining the Kingdom of Heaven. The more the body craves pleasure, the more the soul will lose that which it truly needs. It is not my intention to punish you."

Some of the monks scorned him because of his coarse rustic background, but he endured their contempt in silence and was not disturbed by it. Saint Euphrosynos strove to please the Lord by his virtuous life, which he concealed from others, but the Lord Himself revealed to the monastic brethren just what spiritual heights their cook had attained.

(Part 1 of 3)

>>509698003
In the same monastery there was a devout priest who prayed that he might know what good things are prepared for those who love God. One night, as he was sleeping, he found himself in a beautiful garden, where, to his astonishment, he beheld the most wondrous things. Then he saw Father Euphrosynos, the monastery cook standing in the garden and partaking of the good things of that place. As he approached the cook, he asked to whom the garden belonged, and how he came to be there.

Saint Euphrosynos replied, "This garden is reserved for God's elect, and by His great goodness, I also dwell here."

Then the priest asked him what he did in the garden. The Saint told him, "I have authority over all the things you see here. I rejoice and am filled with gladness and the spiritual enjoyment of them."

The priest questioned him again, "Can you give me something of these good things?"

"Certainly," he replied, "by God's grace, take whatever you wish."

Pointing to some apples, he inquired if he might have some of them. Taking a few of the apples, Saint Euphrosynos placed them in the priest's outer garment saying, "Receive that which you requested, and may you delight in them."

At that moment the semantron was heard, summoning the Fathers to the Midnight Service. When the priest awakened, he thought that his vision was just a dream. But when he reached for his outer garment, he found the apples which the cook had given him, and he could still smell their wonderful fragrance.

He got out of bed and then hurried to church. There he saw Euphrosynos and asked him where he had been that night. The Saint said, "Forgive me, Father, I have not been anywhere tonight. I have just come to church or the Service."

(Part 2 of 3)

>>509698039
The priest urged him to tell the truth, so that God's glory might be made manifest. The humble Euphrosynos told him, "I was in the place where the good things are, which those who love God shall inherit, and which for many years you wished to behold. There you saw me enjoying the blessings of that garden; for God had deigned to reveal to you the blessings of the Just. He has performed this miracle through me, the lowly one."

"Father Euphrosynos, what did you give me from that garden?"

He replied, "The delightful and most fragrant apples which you just put on your bed. Forgive me, Father, for I am a worm and not a man."

When the service of Matins was over, the priest told the brethren about his vision and showed them the apples. They noticed the ineffable fragrance with spiritual joy, marveling at what the priest had told them. Rushing into the kitchen, they found that Saint Euphrosynos had already left the monastery, fleeing from the glory of men, and he could not be found.

The brethren shared the apples among themselves and, as a blessing, gave pieces to those who visited the monastery, especially for those in need of healing, for those who ate the apples were cured of their ailments. Many received benefit from the gift of Saint Euphrosynos. An account of this vision was written, not only on paper, but also in their hearts.

Finally, Saint Euphrosynos reposed in a remote Hēsykhastḗrion. The Church, knowing that a king or a philosopher is not more worthy to enter the Kingdom of Heaven than a cook, has numbered Euphrosynos the Cook among her Saints, for he knew God's will and lived according to it..

A fragment of the Saint's relics is located in the Monastery of Loukous in the Holy Metropolis of Mantineia and Kynouria in Greece.

To you, Champion Leader and Lord, the Vanquisher of Hades, I, your creature and servant, offer a song of praise, for you have delivered me from eternal death. But as you have inextinguishable loving-kindness, deliver me from all dangers that can be, that I may cry to you: Jesus, Son of God, have mercy on me.

Creator of angels and Lord of hosts, as of old you opened the ear and tongue of the deaf and dumb, likewise open now my perplexed mind and tongue to the praise of your most holy name that I may cry to you:

Jesus, most wonderful, angels' astonishment!
Jesus, most powerful, forefathers' deliverance!
Jesus, most sweet, Patriarch's exultation!
Jesus, most glorious, Kings' stronghold!
Jesus, most beloved, Prophets' fulfillment!
Jesus, most marvelous, martyr's strength!
Jesus, most peaceful, monk's joy!
Jesus, most gracious, priests' sweetness!
Jesus, most merciful, fasters' abstinence!
Jesus, most tender, saints' rejoicing!
Jesus, most honorable, virgins' chastity!
Jesus, everlasting, sinners' salvation!
Jesus, Son of God, have mercy on me!

As when seeing the widow weeping bitterly, O Lord, you were moved with pity, and raised her son from the dead as he was being carried to burial, likewise have pity on me, O Lover of mankind, and raise my soul, deadened by sins, as I cry:
Alleluia!

Seeking to understand the incomprehensible, Philip asked, "Lord, show us the Father," and you answered him: "Have I been so long with you and you have not yet known that I am in the Father and the Father in Me?" Likewise, O Inconceivable One, with fear I cry to you:

Jesus, Eternal God!
Jesus, All-powerful King!
Jesus, Long-suffering Master!
Jesus, All-merciful Savior!
Jesus, Gracious Guardian!
Jesus, cleanse me from my sins!
Jesus, wash me from my iniquity!
Jesus, pardon my unrighteousness!
Jesus, my Hope, do not forsake me!
Jesus, my Helper, do not reject me!
Jesus, my Creator, do not forget me!
Jesus, my Shepherd, do not destroy me!
Jesus, Son of God, have mercy on me!

Why is it so important to retain the King of the Jews title if all his other titles supersede it?

>>509702344
Because the Jews killed Him. It's important to understand the history of the situation in order to comprehend the significance of how blind they were to reject Him. Their own Psalms hymn Him, their own Law prefigured Him. Even Jesus' own disciples didn't recognize the full significance of His identity as the Messiah and variously denied Him, until He opened their mind and the Holy Spirit descended upon them at Pentecost.

I wish I could stop sinning. I fail almost daily. Even after confession and repenting I can only stay on the path for a few months before lapsing back into what I am. How did saints go their whole life with never succumbing to any of the passions? Sometimes I think the only way to stop sinning is to kill myself. It seems preferable rather than continuously offending God.

>>509702591
>the jews killed a jew
Nobody gives a fuck, they killed (((Trotsky))) too and you're silent on that issue.

>>509701850
>>509702313
I believe in the power of reason, the dignity of the individual, and the cultivation of virtue—wisdom, courage, justice, and temperance—as the highest human good. I do not worship a god, but I revere the order of nature and the potential for moral greatness in the human mind. My values are not borrowed from tradition, but arise from reflection on human nature, history, and the universal needs of a rational, social species.

My morality does not depend on divine reward or punishment. It emerges from the recognition that we live among others, that actions have consequences, and that a just and meaningful life requires discipline, honesty, and compassion. These are not vague ideals; they are the daily practice of being human well.

Critique of Christianity is not the absence of belief, nor is it hatred. It is a moral duty to question ideas—especially those that demand loyalty, suppress inquiry, or claim monopoly over truth. Pointing out the flaws or historical harms of Christianity is not an attempt to "demoralize," but to liberate—to open a path where virtue does not require superstition.

>>509703068
When asked what secularists believe, the answer is simple: We believe that human beings are capable of good without gods. We believe that life can be meaningful without myths. And we believe that the West—if it is to be saved—will not be saved by a return to dogma, but by a renewal of courage, clarity, and moral self-respect.

>>509702768
>Sometimes I think the only way to stop sinning is to kill myself.
This is the passions Acedia, and comes from Logismoi; intrusive thoughts from Satan himself. You must reject them as "evil, unclean, abominable, loathsome and alien" as we call the demons in the Baptismal exorcisms.

>How did saints go their whole life with never succumbing to any of the passions?
They didn't obviously. The Saints are not perfect nor infallible. "One is Holy, One is Lord Jesus Christ"
Life is never ending spiritual warfare, and temptations never stop, even when you become Sanctified. You just have the gift of grace to overcome them. Think of St Anthony in the desert after his struggles with the demons. His life says that the demons constantly made awful noises trying to distract him from prayer, and he simply ignored them. This disturbed people who came to him for advice because they could hear what he heard, and St Anthony was completely unbothered. But look at the struggle he endured to get to that point.
Our struggle never ends. But neither does Christ's strength have an end.

On the contrary, He solves all of our real problems. Death, namely, and the sinful passions that enslave us. The fallen nature of this world and the existence of suffering. The real purposes behind all of human nature's most important characteristics, such as marriage. And He reveals the truth of virtue, which even Aristotle and other pagan/secular thinkers understood had some sort of objective definitions. Christ elevates these to perfection, and gives them purpose; to serve as our path to sanctification, and towards union with God Who is the "Heavenly King, the Comforter, the Spirit of Truth, Who art everywhere present and fillest all things; Treasury of every good thing, and the Giver of Life"

Refuting a single piece of text out of context is a protestant thing and has never been the way the Church operated for 2000 years. We know God is not the origin of evil. To suggest otherwise is therefore by definition your own misinterpretation of the Church's book, the Holy Scriptures. If you want to know what the Church believes about evil and sin and the whole origin of creation, that is a long topic but you are welcome to do research, or go to an Orthodox Church and just ask a priest directly.

http://www.sourozh.org/orthodox-faith-texts/the-origin-of-evil.html

I found picrelated answer from a priest regarding this question, and really it is just restating what I said earlier. You can't pick and choose individual verses out of context, otherwise you get crazy conclusions like the 40,000 protestant groups. Here is the article it comes from:

You are still operating out of a protestant, "Sola Scriptura" lens. This way of thinking was only invented about 500 years ago. That means over 3/4 of Christianity did not believe in Sola Scriptura, but instead regarded Christ's Church as the highest authority, which is obvious because this is even in the Holy Scriptures themselves.
"So then, brothers, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught, whether by word of mouth or by letter from us."
Saint Paul's Epistle to the Church in Thessalonica 2:15

>"Sola Scriptura" lens. This way of thinking was only invented about 500 years ago.
Not really.
But since holy Scripture is of all things most sufficient for us, therefore recommending to those who desire to know more of these matters, to read the Divine word, I now hasten to set before you that which most claims attention, and for the sake of which principally I have written these things. (Athanasius, To the Bishops of Egypt, Ch 1, 4)
>which is obvious because this is even in the Holy Scriptures themselves.
"So then, brothers, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught, whether by word of mouth or by letter from us."
Saint Paul's Epistle to the Church in Thessalonica 2:15

Let’s look at the full section
>13But we ought always to give thanks to God for you, brothers beloved by the Lord, because God chose you as the firstfruits to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.
I find this part interesting because this is 1 of many verses that implying salvation is by “sanctification by the Spirit” which is to say regeneration and “belief in the truth” which is to say by Faith.
>14To this he called you through our gospel, so that you may obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
>15So then, brothers, stand firm and hold to the traditions that you were taught by us, either by our spoken word or by our letter.
“by our spoken word or by our letter”
Could these not merely be one in the same, whether the Thessalonians obtained the traditions of Paul through writing or word of mouth, as there were the same, they should be held fast to. There is no indication that the writings were different to what was taught orally, and there is zero proof of any oral tradition that can be verifiably linked to Paul’s teaching to the Thessalonians.

>See the problem of interpreting verses out of context, alone, in a vacuum?

Right, there's far too much that doesn't align or is lost in translation for it to have come from god's lips to man's ears. The insistence that the layman can't simply read the book and connect with christ is completely antithetical to christ's teachings. That's one of the things he rebuked the pharisees over.
>>509706468
See above.

>>509706914
>and then in the same exact reply post your cheeky Roman Catholic chibi meme mascot?
Key difference is it wasn’t puffing myself up and comparing myself to a chibi. I wasn’t attacking another group in my meme. Touch grass.
>everyone outside my club is in severe forms of delusion. That’s why you disagree with my priest. Watch this hour long video, if you disagree with me after it you’re delusional.
You’re absurd and driven by pride. You should be more charitable. Luckily you aren’t reflective of all EOs.

>>509707285
>The insistence that the layman can't simply read the book and connect with christ is completely antithetical to christ's teachings
according to you. But this again is taking things out of context, because Christ taught of His real, physical Church. All Christians believed this back to the beginning. Read the Epistles of St Clement and St Ignatius the God-Bearer of Antioch.

>>509707476
>according to you
Jesus fucking christ lmao everything you believe is just
>yes the bible and say one thing, but we don't actually follow that
You're not a christian dude. Good for you, I don't blame you. Just don't LARP as one while behaving like a pharisee, jealousy guarding salvation based on your oral laws and traditions that didn't come from your god.

>the bible and christ say one thing

>>509706426
the bible is an universe in herself. every versicles have do many symbols and meanings, that a laynman can easily get lost and get the feeling that he knows more than the prophets and apostles who wrote her inspired by God himself.

To understand the bible you need to get down from your high horse and empty your tea cup who is full. Humbliness is the way. It's the only way to really understand the meanings and not make a superficial reddit take about it.

you sound interested. you just need to stop denying and open your heart to truly being capable of true understanding.

>>509707321
You can accuse me of all these things you have written a book about in these posts (after criticizing me of doing the same thing) (also after leading your posts with saying this discussion is off topic and unnecessary...) but just because you say something doesn't mean it is true.
If you think holding to the fact that there is an objective, unalloyed truth that is beyond reproach from God Himself is somehow a prideful stance, you really are in delusion. The delusion being that you don't believe absolute truth exists. "Charity" doesn't involve diluting the truth to make you feel good about being wrong. The loving thing to do is not to lie to you saying your differences can be reconciled. They can't.

You should watch the video and not put words in my mouth.

In fact, even though you found it absurd that I would give you an hour of content to educate yourself, I recommend you watch ANOTHER further series of videos about the protestant reformation, since you seem to be struggling along those lines too given your responses.

You have already told me you aren't Christian. So what makes you think you have authority to determine what a Christian is?
I have already explained to you why Sola Scriptura is wrong. If you need more you should watch this video on the history of the events leading up to it and explanations why it is erroneous.

https://youtu.be/piVdrtgo7Xw

>>509707640
Just some advice. You are wasting your time. His Church teaches that it’s impossible for it to in anywise error, to deceive or be recieved. Anything that you say contrary to his believe MUST be wrong because he logically cannot afford for it not to be. If his church errored (which it has) then it’s claims to infallibility are false.

you forgot the most important one:
KING OF THE JEWS

>>509708062
>His Church teaches that it’s impossible for it to in anywise error
As a whole, yes. Because the Church IS Christ. You really don't understand the significance of this. To you Christ seems to be an idea, some abstraction, not a real God-Man sitting at the Right Hand of the Father right now, governing the Church which is His Body. You hold to weak theology that doesn't actually follow logical conclusions.

>>509708058
Sorry duder but nothing you've said is actually supported by scripture which explicitly contradicts the teachings of christ. At this point I just think you're batshit fucking insane.
>>509708062
Yeah it took me some time, but after that last post I've realized he'll spit in the face of jesus himself to defend his man made doctrine.
>>509708253
Complete nutjob.

>>509707925
>you can accuse me of all these things you have written a book about in these posts (after criticizing me of doing the same thing)
Lmao, pure deflection.

>If you think holding to the fact that there is an objective, unalloyed truth that is beyond reproach from God Himself is somehow a prideful stance, you really…
Not my argument, not what I said, you know that and I know you know that.
Since you’re going to behave so dishonestly I won’t bother.

>The delusion being that you don't believe absolute truth exists.
At no point did I say that. Quote where I said that, I know you I can’t. You are putting words in my mouth. VERY IRONIC considering you say
>You should watch the video and not put words in my mouth.
Sadly, many such cases.

>"Charity" doesn't involve diluting the truth
The truth is that you aren’t a wizard, and comparing yourself to a wizard doesn’t make you better than baptists.
>The loving thing to do is not to lie to you saying your differences can be reconciled. They can't.
You right. You aren’t a wizard, you aren’t Better than baptists, you will never be a woman. Sorry but that’s just the truth.

Here is a video for you to watch anon.

>Sorry duder but nothing you've said is actually supported by scripture
The Church is the authority from which Holy Scripture derives its authority. The Church gave you Holy Scripture. There's only so many ways I can say that the Church is literally Jesus Christ.

>>509708253
>As a whole, yes.
Is anyone going to tell him about the old believers?
Or their Buddha saint?
Either way I’m done with the guy. He isn’t a serious person.

>>509708537
>the Church is literally Jesus Christ
Jesus is literally jesus and your church that you claim rebukes jesus in everything it does is probably being completely misrepresented by you since you're a complete fucking nutjob.

>>509708502
I have no interest in interdenominational dialogue, because I believe the truth is objective. It's not my opinion, my opinion is irrelevant; it's just the truth according to history and the fruit of the Church, the Saints. Presbyterians don't have Saints. You were the one who came into this thread, deliberately made yourself upset, and started calling me names.

>>509708655
I tried giving you resources that aren't my words so you don't have to believe me, but you ignored them.

"The connection with Buddha is little more than a modern scholarly assumption based on the similarities in their stories. It's possible that these were just Christian people who happened to have a vaguely similar story to Buddha. There are literally tens of thousands of saints, coincidences can and do happen.

But also, these are very obscure saints. The thing is, there is no official full list of saints in Orthodoxy. What we have are many different incomplete lists compiled in different places and times. "Obscure" saints are those saints found on only one or a couple such lists, and not on others. Their status is debatable. The saints found on all the ancient lists, and those canonized in more recent times when the news of the canonization was recorded and known across the Orthodox world, are the indisputable saints.

The Orthodox saints are a category with some gray areas around the edges. For example, where precisely is the cutoff between Orthodox and non-Orthodox saints from Western Europe? Somewhere around the 11th century, but it's unclear which 11th century saints count as Orthodox and which don't."

I already knew this, I'm just posting this for you since you got scandalized by it.
Old Believers are schismatics, same with all groups that separate from the Body of Christ for any reason. As Fr Josiah says about marriage, as soon as one of you use the word "divorce" then whatever led to the fight in the first place no longer matters: now the sole issue is the fact that one of you thought it was okay to suggest separation. It overshadows any other reason.

Looks like everyone both christian and anti-christian alike ITT agrees that orthocucks are fucking insufferable cunts who have no idea what having a relationship with Christ even means. Notice how you don't see him quoting Christ or the Bible once, just telling anons who do why what Christ said is wrong and how a rando on jewtube is who you should listen to instead.

>>509709098
this guy is a swine. he doesn't have good faith.

>>509708182
He's just a Pretender!

>>509709438
I did multiple times, just so you know you are lying.
When protestants want to argue theology and throw verses back and forth, it devolves into a battle of "who's interpretation is right" and the protestant answer to that is one of 40,000 differences. So I tend to avoid that and point out the fallacious approach to this, and the ahistoricity of it in Christian history.

>>509709525
I mostly reply to make the points known for readers/lurkers. It's useful for everyone to see things talked out. Don't let him or anyone else disturb your peace.

Not once actually. Which is weird considering the topic of the thread. You sure love to talk about what men who arent Christ said though.

>>509709960
I'm not going to link you to the several posts I did. It wouldn't change your mind.
Not to mention a lot of those men I posted made reference themselves.

I think you just have this idea that the Church that canonized the Bible somehow doesn't use the Bible. You can walk into a Divine Liturgy at your local Orthodox Church anytime and see that our liturgical text is like 80% just direct quotes from the Holy Scriptures.

You missed one:

PolyergusFormica the civilization building brain parasite. The one that that makes nukes when it leans in.

>>509710259
>I'm not going to link you to the several posts I did.
Because you're lying, but I'm sure your church says that fine lol. Have a shit night, bozo.

>I have no interest in interdenominational dialogue,
Okay… don’t care.

So do I. And you don’t hold to objective truth.
>It's not my opinion, my opinion is irrelevant;
Correct
>it's just the truth according to history and the fruit of the Church, the Saints.
Yes.
>Presbyterians don't have Saints.
That’s a lie, another example of how you don’t have the truth.
You seem to be suffering from spiritual delusion anon.

>>509710430
Very Christian of you.

>>509710461
Go to bed and stop torturing yourself anon. You aren't benefitting from being here

>>509709401
Notice you dodged the topic of the Old Believers, checks out.
So IF he is the Buddha, would that make your church false
Simple yes or no will suffice.

>>509710582
Oh now anon, I’m a support of objective truth. Why would I miss out on a fun chance to try point you to towards the light?

>>509711105
I address the old believers here:
>Old Believers are schismatics, same with all groups that separate from the Body of Christ for any reason.

It overshadows any other reason.

He isn't the buddha because an Orthodox Saint necessitates right-belief. That's why the comment said that we don't know who in the 11th century is actually an Orthodox Saint after the Schism, because due to time and place and availability of information locally, many people who were normal Christians might not have changed whatsoever despite what the Pope said in Rome, which could have been thousands of miles away from them. If the story of the Saint came from myths or a game of telephone from the buddha, then that's just one for the history books. Thus the comment said we don't have a complete list of Saints, only those known for certain by the whole Church are a safe bet. This operates inversely, of course. Not everyone who is a Saint becomes publicly known, in fact most aren't, they're just quiet. God chooses specific ones to hold up for us for the benefit of us all though.

>>509711517
>that separate from the Body of Christ
They were actually booted out by the mainliners.
Now the core question is.
Were the mainline correct to do so? Were their anathemas valid?
Yes or no?

>He isn't the buddha because an Orthodox Saint necessitates right-belief.
You dodged the question. IF he is the Buddha, would that make your church false
Simple yes or no will suffice.
