Why did the Orthodox in Russia appropriate the name of the Orthodox Church. To the question of how Christian orthodox believers became Orthodox Christians

A question that seems obvious is not even mastered at all. How wrong people are can be concluded from the fact that some "Orthodox" Christians actually already believe that " the division into Orthodox and Catholic churches occurred in 1054".

Notice the 1956 plaque from the church in Canada: ORTHODOX CURCH- This ORTHODIC CHURCH. However, the translation is " ORTHODOX". This is a substitution of concepts!

The question is, who and when on Russian soil decided to change the terms orthodoxy on the orthodoxy?

It happened in the 17th century, when the Moscow Patriarch Nikon initiated a church reform. The main goal of this Nikon reform was not to change the rites of the Christian church, as it is now interpreted, where it all comes down to supposedly replacing the sign of the cross with a two-fingered one with a three-fingered one and walking the procession in the other direction. The main goal of the reform was the destruction of dual faith on Russian soil.

In our time, few people know that before the reign of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich in Muscovy, there was dual faith in the Russian lands. In other words, the common people professed not only orthodoxy, i.e. Christianity of the Greek rite, which came from Byzantium, but also the old pre-Christian faith of their ancestors ORTHODOXY. This is what worried Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich Romanov and his spiritual mentor, the Christian Patriarch Nikon, most of all, for the Orthodox Old Believers lived by their own principles and did not recognize any power over themselves.

Patriarch Nikon decided to put an end to dual faith in a very original way. To do this, under the guise of a reform in the church, allegedly due to the discrepancy between the Greek and Slavic texts, he ordered all liturgical books to be rewritten, replacing the phrases "orthodox Christian faith" with "Orthodox Christian faith." In the Readings of the Menaia, which have survived to our times, we can see the old version of the entry "Orthodox Christian Faith." This was Nikon's very interesting approach to reform.

Supporters of the old traditions accused Nikon of trilingual heresy and pandering to paganism, as Christians called Orthodoxy, that is, the old pre-Christian faith. The split engulfed the entire country. This led to the fact that in 1667 the great Moscow cathedral condemned and deposed Nikon, and anathematized all opponents of the reforms.

From that time on, adherents of the new liturgical traditions began to be called Nikonians, and adherents of the old rites and traditions began to be called schismatics and persecuted. The confrontation between the Nikonians and the schismatics at times reached the point of armed clashes until the royal troops came out on the side of the Nikonians. In order to avoid a large-scale religious war, part of the higher clergy of the Moscow Patriarchate condemned some of the provisions of Nikon's reforms.

In liturgical practices and state documents, the term Orthodoxy began to be used again. For example, let us turn to the spiritual regulations of Peter the Great: “ ... And like a Christian Sovereign, orthodoxy and everyone in the church, the Holy Guardian of piety ...»

As we can see, even in the 18th century, Peter the Great is called the Christian sovereign, guardian of orthodoxy and piety. But there is not a word about Orthodoxy in this document. Nor is it in the editions of the Spiritual Regulations of 1776-1856.

What was then called Orthodoxy over several millennia?

The answer to this question was given by the Byzantine monk Belisarius in 532 AD. Long before the baptism of Russia, this is what he wrote in his Chronicles about the Slavs and their rite of visiting the bath: “ Orthodox Slovenes and Rusyns are wild people, and their life is wild and godless, men and girls lock themselves together in a hot, overheated hut and exhaust their bodies ....»

We will not pay attention to the fact that for the monk Belisarius the usual visit by the Slavs to the bath seemed something wild and incomprehensible, this is quite natural. For us, something else is important. Pay attention to how he called the Slavs: Orthodox Slovenes and Rusyns.

For this one phrase alone, we must express our gratitude to him. Since with this phrase the Byzantine monk Belisarius confirms that the Slavs were Orthodox many thousands of years before their conversion to the Judeo-Christian faith.

The Slavs were called Orthodox, because they praised the RIGHT.

What is "RIGHT"?

Our ancestors believed that reality, the cosmos, is divided into three levels. And it is also very similar to the Indian system of division: Upper World, Middle World and Lower World.

In Russia, these three levels were called like this:

The highest level is the level of Rule or Rule.

The second, middle level is Yav.

And the lowest level is Nav. Nav or Non-reveal, unmanifested.

The World of Rule is a world where everything is correct or an ideal upper world. This is a world where ideal beings with higher consciousness live.

Reality is our manifest, obvious world, the world of people.

And the world of Navi or Unrevealed, unmanifested, is a negative, unmanifested or lower, or posthumous world.

The Indian Vedas also speak of the existence of three worlds:

The upper world is the world where the energy of goodness dominates.

The middle world is seized with passion.

The lower world is immersed in ignorance.

There is no such division among Christians. The Bible is silent on this.

Such a similar understanding of the world also gives a similar motivation in life, i.e. it is necessary to aspire to the world of Rule or Goodness. And in order to get into the world of Rule, you need to do everything right, i.e. by the law of God.

Words such as "truth" come from the root "right". Truth is what makes right. “Yes” is “to give”, and “rule” is “higher”. So, the "truth" is what gives the right.

If we are not talking about faith, but about the word "orthodoxy", then of course it was borrowed by the church (according to various estimates in the 13-16 centuries) from "those who glorify the rule", i.e. from ancient Russian Vedic cults.

At least for the reason that:

a) rarely what ancient Russian name did not contain a particle of "glory",

b) that until now the Sanskrit, Vedic word "prav" (spiritual world) is contained in such modern Russian words as: truth, correct, righteous, correctness, board, management, correction, government, rights, wrong. The root of all these words is "right."

“Right” or “right”, i.e. the highest beginning. The point is that the concept of the Rule or the higher reality should underlie the real management. And real management should spiritually elevate those who follow the ruler, leading his wards on the paths of rule.

Modern interpretation of the term ORTHODOX = Orthodox, appeared on Wikipedia only after this resource was funded by the UK government. In fact, Orthodoxy is translated as Right Belief, Orthodox is translated as Right Faithful.

Either Wikipedia, continuing the idea of ​​“identity” Orthodoxy=Orthodoxy, should call Muslims and Jews Orthodox (because the terms Orthodox Muslim or Orthodox Jew are found in all world literature), recognize Marxists as ORTHODOX, or still recognize that Orthodoxy=RightBelief and has nothing to do with Orthodoxy, as well as the Christian Church of the Eastern Rite, called since 1943 - the Russian Orthodox Church.

The Greek Catholic Orthodox (Right Faithful) Church (now the Russian Orthodox Church) began to be called Orthodox only on September 8, 1943 (approved by Stalin's decree in 1945).

Thus the concepts Orthodoxy and Christianity are not identical and carry completely different concepts and meanings.

Why are we called Orthodox Christians?

(Assumption Kiev-Pechersk Lavra)

Almost two thousand years ago, our Lord Jesus Christ came to earth and saved mankind from the sin, curse, and death that had hung over them since the first people sinned. Having sent to earth after the Holy Ascension of the Holy Spirit, “who proceeds from the Father” (John 15, 26), the Lord founded the Church as His mystical Body, and the sacraments of the Church became a way of grace-filled communion with God. Therefore, a person needs to be in the Church in order to communicate with God through the sacraments.

In its history, the Church, in order to preserve the unity of faith, has limited and established the rules and laws of its existence. Therefore, those who violated these laws are called schismatics, and their teachings, which they preached, are called heresy. In general, schismatics are those who, for whatever reason, separate from the Church and organize their own gatherings.

Regarding schisms, Nicodemus, Bishop of Dalmatia, the generally accepted interpreter of church canons (rules), says the following:

“... In general, the Church has always looked at schisms as one of the greatest sins against the Church. Thus, for example, Optat Milevitsky (4th century) considered schism the greatest evil, greater than killing a person and idolatry.” Elsewhere, Ep. Nicodemus, in his interpretation of the sixth canon of the Second Ecumenical Council, says: “In the works of the holy fathers and teachers of the Church, schismatics are quite often called heretics. In fact, we find many schisms that, when they arise, still adhere to Orthodoxy, but then gradually depart from it and form one or another heresy for themselves, "since if a schismatic violates any church rule, then he automatically violates the second, and the third, etc., and in the end the Orthodox faith is generally distorted, and this leads to destruction.

Throughout history, the Church knows an infinite number of schisms. Therefore, many rules relate to this topic. Many of the holy fathers and church teachers wrote about schisms. In the Church, schism has always been a negative phenomenon and was perceived as a sin against the Church, and therefore against God. This sin is a terrible and mortal sin. Here is what St. John Chrysostom says in his interpretation of the Epistle of the Apostle Paul to the Ephesians: “... nothing offends God so much as division in the Church ...”, and a little lower: “One holy man said that such a sin (schism) cannot be atoned for even the blood of a martyr” (T. 11, p. 102), i.e. if a schismatic suffers for Christ and accepts a martyr's death, then all the same, after death, fiery hell awaits him. Why? Because schismatics, along with heretics, are outside the boundaries of the Universal Church.

In all ages, the Church has never been silent when the shrines of her faith were trampled on her behalf. Those people who created a schism or introduced something new and heretical into the church doctrine were always excommunicated from the Church. At the Church Council of such schismatics and heretics, according to the apostle: corrupted and sinning, being self-condemned” (Titus 3:10-11) were anathematized – excommunicated from the Church. If such a person did not repent of his sin and did not agree in opinion throughout the Ecumenical Orthodox Church, then after death eternal death awaited him.

Now in Ukraine there are several splits. One of them calls itself the Ukrainian Orthodox Church - the Kyiv Patriarchate. This schism is led by Mikhail Denisenko, a former Metropolitan Filaret who calls himself a patriarch. Because he made a split and after much persuasion did not repent, in February 1997 at the Bishops' Council he was anathematized, excommunicated from the Church and from communion with the entire Orthodox world.

In October 1997, three Orthodox Patriarchs visited Ukraine: Ecumenical, Russian and Georgian. Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew has officially declared that in Ukraine he recognizes only one Ukrainian Orthodox Church, which is headed by His Beatitude Metropolitan Volodymyr (Sabodan) of Kyiv and All Ukraine.

All patriarchs of the Orthodox world recognize the anathematization of the schismatic "Filaret". And this means that the hierarchy of the "Kyiv Patriarchate" (bishops, priests, deacons) are not recognized as blessed and are not who they claim to be. Calling themselves priests, they deceive the people. The services they hold are not valid in any Local Orthodox Church.

Therefore, when baptizing his child in a schismatic church, which belongs to the "Kyiv Patriarchate", a person must understand that his child will remain unbaptized at all. An Orthodox person who wants to save his soul needs to be in the Body of Christ - in His Church.

On the territory of Ukraine, the only canonical Church (that is, which has not violated church rules (canons) and is in canonical unity with all Local Orthodox Churches) is the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, headed by Blessed Metropolitan Volodymyr (Sabodan). All other churches are not canonical, therefore they are graceless.

The tenth Apostolic canon states the following: “Whoever prays with someone who has been excommunicated from church communion, even at home, let him be excommunicated.” As we can see, the church rule forbids prayerful communion with heretics, as well as with schismatics—i.e. you can’t even pray together with them (this applies to Protestants).

Defining the Unity of the Church, our Lord Jesus Christ gave the image of the vine. In the Gospel of John we read the following: “I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. Every branch I have that does not bear fruit, He cuts off; and every one that bears fruit he cleanses, that it may bear more fruit... Abide in me, and I in you. I am the vine and you are the branches; whoever abides in Me and I in him bears much fruit; for without me you can do nothing. Whoever does not abide in me is thrown out like a branch and withers; but such branches are gathered and thrown into the fire, and they are burned up” (John 15:16). These words really say that if a person is outside the true Orthodox Church (vine), then he is not in the Lord, and such people (dry branches), i.e. schismatics will be thrown into the fire.

The most terrible thing is that Grace recedes from the schismatics. The result of this is the diabolical hatred with which they take churches away from true Orthodox. It does not allow them to understand the Truth. Producing violence, spreading obvious lies about the Church, they think that they are doing the work of God, but in fact they are fighting not only against the “Russian Church as a fifth column”, but against God Himself. It is obvious that in this violence there is absolutely no Christian meekness, about which the Lord spoke: “Be meek as doves” (Matt. 10, 16).

A thinking person, reading these lines, must draw the right conclusions, since his future fate in eternity depends on this. Coming to church, turning to God, the first thing you need to bring to your Creator is tears of repentance. Without purifying one's soul with repentance and a pious life, without understanding the correct teaching about the Church, one cannot introduce one's own concept of Christianity into the Church.

God, His Church, His saints cannot be divided along national lines. Here the apostle Paul warns: “There is neither Jew nor Gentile; there is no slave nor free; there is no male or female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus” (Gal. 3:28).

Everyone who really wants to save his soul should wonder if he is inside the true Orthodox Church? Is he not a member of a schismatic church that does not have full Grace and is not in unity with the entire Orthodox world?

If it turns out that a person is in schism, then it is necessary to find a church where a priest of the canonical Church serves, and to repent that the person, knowing or not knowing, was in schism and thereby harmed the teachings of the Church.

For no one can lay a foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ (1 Cor. 3:11)

I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. Every branch I have that does not bear fruit, He cuts off; and every one that bears fruit he cleanses, that she may bear more fruit (John 15:1).

But even if we, or an angel from heaven, began to preach to you not what we preached to you, let it be anathema. As we said before, as I still say now: whoever preaches to you other than what you received, let him be anathema. (Gal. 1, 8 - 9).

Jesus Christ, the Son of God, created the one universal Church. In this one Church, seven Ecumenical Councils were held, where the hierarchs (and among them there were many ascetics, righteous people and great theologians) by the will of the Holy Spirit formed a single, indestructible Creed (briefly expressed the essence of Christianity).

Thus, the right faith, given to us by the Lord Himself, was established.

The Church of Christ, created by His immediate disciples, the holy Apostles, has been united on earth for a thousand years. But in the eleventh century, its western part, which changed the Creed and declared itself Catholic, fell away from the One Church of Christ.

Then the concept of Orthodoxy appears - the correct glorification of God, as it was in the original Church, created by Christ and the Apostles.

Thus, we are called Orthodox Christians because we believe in our Lord Jesus Christ as set forth in the Creed, and we belong to the One Holy and Apostolic Church founded by the Savior Himself on earth.

All other Christians who profess faith in Christ differently from the Orthodox Church do not belong to it. From this it is clear that we are obliged, firstly, to know the Law of God, our faith and “to be always ready for anyone that requires us to give an account of our faith, to give an answer with meekness and reverence” (1 Pet. 3, 15), and secondly, to fulfill the holy commandments and thus "to walk worthy of the calling to which you are called" (Eph. 4:1).

And our Christian title is truly great and heavenly, because we are “bought with a price” – by the Blood of Jesus Christ and should be a temple of the Holy Spirit, children of the Heavenly Father. That's why St. the apostles call Christians “a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation” (1 Pet. 2:9).

Unfortunately, many do not know and do not realize the height and greatness of their Christian calling, do not know their duties, do not fulfill them and live like pagans in wickedness. Some do this out of their spiritual darkness, others out of laziness, and still others out of arrogance.

But the Holy Church prays for all of us through the mouth of St. Ap. Paul: “Walk worthy of the calling to which you are called,” otherwise you will not be children of God, but children of the devil, fulfilling his lusts (see John 8:44).

Why is Christianity called Orthodox?

Alexey Kungurov

T. The patriarchs answer you: - Our church is orthodox, and the orthodox is Orthodox. All over the world our church is called the Russian Orthodox Church of the Greek Rite. The only thing we are told is that she is a Russian Orthodox Church. What do we learn from the lips of the patriarch and clergymen that in Israel live Orthodox - Orthodox Jews, and in Muslim countries Orthodox Muslims, Orthodox. (Orthodoxy—the steadfast adherence to tradition—is a way of believing!)

Orthodoxy, Orthodoxy and Judaism are independent religions!

Those. then devout Muslims are Orthodox Muslims, and this is how the substitution of concepts takes place. Actually, something else happened.

An alternative view of the history of religions is considered.

The main religions are:

– Christopherianism;

- Pavoslavie;

Actually, the modern Orthodox Church, and earlier the Greek Catholic Orthodox Church, actually received the name Orthodox only from the middle of the last century. That is, for many millennia before that, Orthodoxy was understood to be completely different. In other words, Christianity and Orthodoxy are not identical to each other.

So who took part in the seven councils for the Judeo-Christian church, the orthodox or orthodox fathers? In fact, the substitution of one concept for another occurred during Nikon's reforms.

It is authentically known that the Slavs themselves were Orthodox many thousands of years before they were converted to the Judeo-Christian faith. And they called the Slavs the term "Orthodox" because they glorified the Rule. After all, the ancestors sincerely believed that the whole world is divided into three separate levels, namely the highest level called Rule or Rule, the middle level - Reality, as well as the lowest level or world called Nav or ...

Wrong. Orthodoxy and Christianity have nothing in common. Orthodoxy is the true Faith of our ancestors Russ Slavs. They glorified Rule, the world of the Gods. And Christianity was forcibly imposed with the blood of our ancestors and that religion was called orthodox Christianity of the Byzantine Catholic Church. For 12 years of the baptism of Kievan Rus, out of 12 million Russ, 9 million were slaughtered, since our ancestors were faithful to the Rule, to their Faith, and it was impossible to force them to abandon their Faith, the Faith of their ancestors by any means. They left alive the elderly and small children, from whom they later raised Christians. In 1654, the rector of the church, Nikon, started a reform of the church - he changed the rites, replaced two-fingered baptism with three-fingered baptism, during the rites they began to go against ...

Why are we called Orthodox Christians?

We are called Orthodox Christians because we believe in our Lord Jesus Christ; we believe as set forth in the "Symbol of Faith", and we belong to the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church founded by the Savior Himself on earth, which, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, invariably and gloriously preserves the teachings of Jesus Christ, that is, we belong to the Orthodox Church of Christ .

All other Christians who profess faith in Christ differently from the holy Orthodox Church do not belong to it. These include: Catholics (Roman Catholic Church), Protestants (Lutherans), Baptists and other sectarians.

The Greek Catholic Orthodox (Right Faithful) Church (now the Russian Orthodox Church) began to be called Orthodox only on September 8, 1943 (approved by Stalin's decree in 1945). What, then, was called Orthodoxy for several millennia?

“In our time, in modern Russian vernacular, in the official, scientific and religious designation, the term “Orthodoxy” is applied to anything related to the ethno-cultural tradition and it is necessarily associated with the Russian Orthodox Church and the Christian Judeo-Christian religion.

To a simple question: “What is Orthodoxy”, any modern person, without hesitation, will answer that Orthodoxy is the Christian faith that Kievan Rus adopted during the reign of Prince Vladimir the Red Sun from the Byzantine Empire in 988 AD. And that Orthodoxy, i.e. The Christian faith has existed on Russian soil for more than a thousand...

Why are we called Orthodox Christians?

Almost two thousand years ago, our Lord Jesus Christ came to earth and saved mankind from the sin, curse, and death that had hung over them since the first people sinned. Having sent to earth after the Holy Ascension of the Holy Spirit, “who proceeds from the Father” (John 15, 26), the Lord founded the Church as His mystical Body, and the sacraments of the Church became a way of grace-filled communion with God. Therefore, a person needs to be in the Church in order to communicate with God through the sacraments.

In its history, the Church, in order to preserve the unity of faith, has limited and established the rules and laws of its existence. Therefore, those who violated these laws are called schismatics, and their teachings, which they preached, are called heresy. In general, schismatics ...

In the beginning I will make a little explanation for those who believe that Orthodoxy is Christianity. I'm afraid to upset you, but it's not true at all.

Orthodoxy and Christianity have nothing in common with each other. Orthodoxy is the ancient Faith of our ancestors of the Slavs. They glorified Rule, the world of the Gods. And Christianity was forcibly imposed and that religion was called orthodox Christianity of the Byzantine Catholic Church. There are terrible legends that during the years of the baptism of Kievan Rus, millions of Rus were killed, since our ancestors were faithful to the Rule, to their Faith, and it was impossible to force them to abandon the Faith of their ancestors by any means.
In 1654, the rector of the church, Nikon, started a reform of the church. He changed the rites, replaced double-fingered baptism with three-fingered ones, during the rites they began to walk counterclockwise and the name of the church was changed from Orthodox to Orthodox (the true faith of the Slavs) in order to lure our ancestors there. This name did not last long and was canceled as…

Christianity is known to be one of the largest world religions. Millions of people around the world are adherents of Christianity, which has led to the heterogeneity of this religious trend. It broke up into a number of independent currents, the main of which are Catholicism, Orthodoxy and Protestantism.

Various political, socio-economic reasons, the course of historical events, such as the collapse of the Roman Empire into the western and eastern parts in the 4th century, caused the emergence of two currents of Christianity: Catholicism and Orthodoxy.

In the western part, there was a process of further fragmentation of the empire - the creation of independent feudal states. In conditions of political fragmentation, it became possible to strengthen the power of the church. It is already striving to rise above secular power, creating an international religious organization headed by a single head - the pope.

In the eastern part, the church was under the authority of the emperor, was part of his state apparatus….

Question:

Please tell me, director Ivanov - is “director” a name or position? And Mr. Ivanov - "Mr." Is this a title or a name? So how do you say God and Lord is the name? God has a name, and you cite the tetragrammaton YHWH, which occurs over 7,000 times in the Bible. Throughout the world, his reading is reported as Jehovah or Yahweh, so why don't you finish this in your answer and don't quote Exodus 3:15? Let's honestly insert this Tetragrammaton in all the places in the Bible where it appears in the original texts. I do not hope for your answer, but I am glad that there are still people who read the Bible and meditate. Goodbye.

Priest Afanasy Gumerov, a resident of the Sretensky Monastery, answers:

The question of the names of God is resolved in ancient and late patristics, as well as in biblical science. Both representatives of patristic theology and scholars in the field of biblical science are unanimous in their opinion that the Holy Scripture reveals to us several divine names. They only dispute it...

What is real Christianity?
Does Christianity have the right to be called ORTHODOX: the answer is unequivocal - NO. Christianity is not the religion of the SLAVES, and it has never been Orthodox. Christianity is a religion of lies and slavery.

The official Russian religion is Christianity. A religion in which there is not a word about the Slavs. Some Jews. While the Jews themselves adhere to a different religion. Paradox? To see why it happened, you need to figure out how Russia was baptized. But, only without Jewish interpretations.

Before Christianity in Russia there was the Old Faith - Orthodoxy. Our ancestors were Orthodox, because. They praised the right.

According to the Vedic scriptures there are:
Reality is a tangible world,
Nav - the world of Spirits and Ancestors,
Rule - the world of the Gods.

In 988 AD Christianity was brought from Byzantium to Russia.

– The word “Orthodoxy” really means “to properly glorify God.” Praising God properly is very important. It is also important to correctly learn this glorification and correctly build life in accordance with this teaching.

TRUE ORTHODOXY AND ITS ENEMIES IN THE MODERN WORLD
Many in our time forget that the Church is not some kind of earthly, human institution, but a Divine institution, the highest purpose of which is the salvation of souls into eternal life, that in it there is no place for any “politics” or “diplomacy” and is not permissible. to prevaricate, trampling on conscience, in the name of any purely earthly goals, even if they are covered with falsely false slogans of "peace of the whole world"; "common good" and even imaginary "Christian love" and "humility", which is now so in vogue ...

The widespread, “walking” opinion of our days is that Orthodoxy is just one of the many varieties of Christianity, along with others that have the full right to exist and even, to one degree or another, are equivalent.
But to think this way is either extreme naivety based on ignorance, or it is definitely a malicious misrepresentation of the truth.
If we turn to the history of the Christian...

Christianity came to Kievan Rus with the name of the faithful after a split in the Christian world:
* Western, Christian church with the center in Rome, began to be called Catholic ie. universal,
* Eastern, Greek-Byzantine church with a center in Constantinople (Constantinople) - Orthodox i.e. Orthodox.

Immediately after the split, they declared anathema to each other and constantly sent curses. When the Vatican redirected its fourth Crusade to Palestine - the Burning Camp (there were 10 crusades, but finally Jerusalem - RUSalim did not succeed in recapturing the Vatican from the Muslims) to Constantinople, the central office of the Orthodox Eastern Church migrated to Kyiv and Ryazan. Constantinople was defeated and plundered completely. Only after the arrival of the Eastern Church in Russia, the cleansing of the Slavic culture and Vedic Orthodoxy of the ancient Rus began. From that moment on, the Slavs began to forget who they were, where they came from, what the culture and life of their ancestors were like.
The very word Orthodoxy means:
Glorification (this ancient word was supplanted by false storytellers from colloquial use) with the kind word of the Glorious World of Rule, i.e. World of Light Gods and our Ancestors.

The opinion was formed that a Russian is necessarily an Orthodox Christian. This formulation is fundamentally wrong. Russian means Orthodox, this concept is undeniable. But a Russian is not necessarily a Christian, because not all Russians are Christians. Many did not accept the slave philosophy, only because of the fear of being burned at the stake, they visited temples ..
The faithful could not come to terms with the fact that Christianity was present in Russia, especially in Muscovy, only formally. The priests decided to absorb Vedic Orthodoxy in order to do away with it once and for all. And the very name Orthodox was appropriated by Christian church hierarchs cynically, arrogantly, without any consent of the Rus. So appeared in Russia - Christian Orthodoxy (instead of the Vedic). The Vedic Orthodoxy of the ancient faith burned out on the fires of cruel Christianity, along with the ancient texts and spiritual leaders of Vedic Orthodoxy - the Magi. In the Vedic culture, there was no centralized power like in religions, seeking to usurp and enrich. Vedic Orthodoxy was not a religion, but a Faith. It did not build expensive temples, as it believed that it was useless. The Slavs kept their gods in their hearts. Statues were erected only at crossroads and on the outskirts of settlements. They never went to atone for their sins, because they never sinned. The ethnos Rusov are peaceful, hardworking people and achieved everything only at the expense of their own labor. Therefore, they had no reason to atone for their sins, to justify their actions before the gods.

The Greeks highly valued the moral culture of the Russians. Here is the testimony of the Byzantine historians of the seventh century:
Our soldiers captured three foreigners who had citharas (harp) instead of weapons. When the emperor asked who they were, the foreigners answered: "We play the harp, and loving music, we lead a peaceful and calm life." The emperor marveled at the quiet disposition of these people, their great growth and strength, treated them, observing their manners. Struck by the high culture of behavior, allowed to return to the fatherland.

Arabic chronographer Al Marwazi wrote:
"When the Russians turned to Christianity, religion blunted their swords and closed the doors of knowledge to them, and they fell into poverty and a beggarly existence."

Modern scientists, historians and theologians continue to try to impose on the world that Russia, they say, became Orthodox, during the baptism and the spread of Byzantine Christianity among the dark, wild, mired in ignorance, kind of Slavs. Such a formulation is very convenient to use to distort history and belittle the significance of the most ancient, colorful folklore and saturated with all sorts of traditions of culture, all the peoples of Vedic Orthodoxy. From which Christianity, poor in its traditions and rituals, borrowed a lot of things, and later ascribed to itself without any shame. Some two centuries ago, Easter eggs, vyshyvankas, psaltery were under the strictest ban on the part of priesthood. The Christian leaders were so dumb as to say that a woman has no soul. What could Christian missionaries know about the culture and Faith of the Slavic peoples? As carriers of Christianity, they could understand the culture of the Northern peoples with
* a different mentality, devoid of the concepts of money-grubbing and violence;
* a different worldview, the Slavs lived in harmony with the environment in a creative, creative frame of mind?!
Here is an example of a description of the life of the Slavs in the view of one of the Christian missionaries:
“Orthodox Slovenes and Rusyns are wild people and their life is wild and godless. Naked men and girls are locked together in a hotly heated hut and torture their bodies, slashing each other with tree branches mercilessly to the point of exhaustion, then run out naked and jump into an ice hole or a snowdrift. And, having cooled down, they again run into the hut to torture themselves with rods.
As Greek-Byzantine missionaries could still understand, a simple Orthodox rite is visiting a Russian bath. In their narrow imagination, it really was something wild and incomprehensible. Who can, in fact, be considered savages: those who regularly visited baths, or those who never washed in their lives ?!

Cunningly wise ministers of Christ always rely on falsification. In this case, too, it seems to refer to the earliest written use of the word “Orthodoxy”, which is recorded in the territory of Russia in the “Sermon on Law and Grace” (1037-1050) by Metropolitan Hilarion:
Praise the praiseworthy voices of the Roman country of Peter and Paul, image your faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God; Asia and Ephesus, and Patm John the Evangelist, India Thomas, Egypt Mark. All countries and cities, and people honor and glorify every once in a while their teacher, who taught me the Orthodox faith ..
In the quote - I'm Orthodox in faith - the word Orthodox simply could not be. Because only in 1054 Christianity was divided - into Catholics and Orthodox (non-Orthodox).

In the beginning, the teaching of Jesus was called the teaching of the fisherman. In the future, the symbol of the fish was sometimes used. Just as the Gauls used the symbol of the red rooster, and the Jews - the goat.
And in the official language of the Christian Church on the territory of Russia, the term "Orthodox" began to be used only at the end of the 14th - beginning of the 15th century. Most actively, the terms "Orthodox" and "Orthodoxy" came into use only - in the 16th century. That's how easy it is for storytellers to lie, they pass false information into history.

Insofar as too many questions have appeared regarding the word Orthodoxy, then everyone, if desired, can independently unravel this tangle of contradictions by examining the chronology of this word.

Biblical mythology, as such, had not yet taken place by the 11th century. It was in fragmentary versions with many significant contradictions. And until the end of the 15th century (and possibly until the end of the 16th century), biblical mythology in the modern sense was completely absent. Not only in the East, but also in the West. Even in the 13th century (not to mention the 11th), the Pope was saying that people already knew too much. If, however, they also learn everything that is told about by various texts and in various books, then this will be a source of great danger, for they will begin to ask questions to which the clergy have no answers. And the Bible will begin to be called - mythology. And so, in the end, in 1231, Gregory IX, with his bull, forbade the laity to read the Bible. Moreover, the ban was formally canceled only by the "Second Vatican Council", opened on the initiative of Pope John XXIII in 1962. Historical documents report that there were repeated attempts to allow access to the reading of biblical mythology to a wide audience, but each time new bans came out. All this suggests that the church was afraid of exposing the biblical texts, which were copied from the Aryan Avesta. Historians wrote: "The Church forbids the distribution of books of scripture among the laity and considers it a serious crime to translate these books from incomprehensible Latin into popular languages." From time to time, new prohibitions were issued. So at the cathedral in Beziers in 1246 we find: "As for the divine books, then the laity should not have them even in Latin; as for the divine books in the vernacular, then do not allow them at all either from the clergy or from the laity." The edict of Charles IV at the end of the 14th century states: "According to the canonical regulations, it is not appropriate for laymen of both sexes to read anything from the scripture, even in the vernacular." In Russia, although not in such an open form as in Catholic countries, there were calls: "Forbid the common people to read the Bible." But most likely, all the prohibitions were because biblical mythology, as such, has not yet taken place. It was in fragmentary versions with many significant contradictions. And until the end of the 15th century (and possibly until the end of the 16th century), biblical mythology in the modern sense was completely absent. Not only in the East, but also in the West.
The famous church historian A.V. Kartashev wrote:
"The first manuscript for the entire East (even before the advent of the printing press) was the Bible of 1490, created by Archbishop Gennady of Novgorod ... Such an early interest in mastering the full biblical text appeared in Russia in the 15th century", p.600.

If at the very end of the 15th century the awakening of interest in the complete Bible is regarded by experts as too early (!), then what can we say about the 14th or 13th centuries? At that time, as we see, no one in the East was even interested in Biblical mythology. And in the West they didn't read it, because it was "forbidden". The question is - who read it in those centuries? Yes, it simply did not exist. But the storytellers of lies have wandered so far in their falsification that they began to date the Bible, you will simply be surprised - the 1st century.
The split in Christianity, after which the Church was finally divided into Catholic and Orthodox, occurred in 1054. The division caused by the schism has not been overcome to this day, despite the fact that in 1965 mutual anathemas and curses on each other were mutually lifted by Pope Paul VI. For the first time, anathemas and curses were lifted before the first crusade (the campaign of the poor in 1096). So, as the Vatican alone, without the financial support of Byzantium, could not overcome the Muslims. They were forced to unite in front of one common enemy. Disagreements arose on issues of a dogmatic and canonical, as well as liturgical and disciplinary nature, and began long before 1054, however, it was in 1054 that Pope Leo IX sent envoys to Constantinople. The immediate reason was the closure of the Latin churches in Constantinople in 1053. In addition, Patriarch Michael Cerularia instructed his assistant to throw the Holy Gifts prepared according to the Catholic custom from unleavened bread from the tabernacles and trample them underfoot, openly, in the presence of a large crowd. All this demonstrates the clearly low culture and primitive mentality of Christian officials. And we are surprised at the bloody crusades against the civilian population of the Baltic countries, and the bonfires of the Inquisition blazing all over Europe, and country torture huts for the recalcitrant ...

Christianity was persecuted and not numerous of its supporters were simply killed with impunity. The fourth century was a turning point in the history of Christianity. In the fourth century, the largest at that time, the Arab-Semitic community, led by the Flavin Semite, Flavius ​​Valerius Aurelius Constantine, seized power. Under him, Christianity became a permitted religion, thanks to the Edict of Milan, from 313. Under Constantine, the First Ecumenical Council in Nicaea was held, at which the Creed (a brief summary of the dogmas used in the liturgy) was formulated - the doctrine of the consubstantial Trinity. Thus, a modified, from the Vedic Orthodoxy of Russia, trinity appeared in Christianity: Father-Son-Holy Spirit. The concept of the trinity (triglav) has existed since time immemorial, and in Hindustan for several millennia. This is the first symbol that was borrowed by the priests from the ancient Vedic culture. Since that time, many sects and trends in Christianity have appeared. They look like someone has thrown them out of a bag. The most aggressive struggle was waged with a sect called Arianism. Arianism appeared in the IV century by the name of its creator - an Alexandrian priest with the name Arius. He argued that Christ was created by God, and therefore, firstly, has the beginning of his being; secondly, it is not equal to him: in Arianism, Christ is not consubstantial with God, as the opponents of Arius, Bishops Alexander of Alexandria and then Athanasius, argued, but only similar to him. What the Arians asserted was the following: God the Father, after the dispensation of the world, became the cause of the birth of the Son and, by His will, embodied His essence into another, created from nothing, into a new and different God; and there was a time when the Son did not exist. that is, he brought the hierarchy of relations into the Trinity. In the same century, the formation of monasticism takes place. Under the reign of Julian (361-363), the persecution of Christians was again organized. For this, he earned the nickname "The Renegade". In the 5th century, the first major schism occurred in the Church. The Fourth Ecumenical Council at Chalcedon was not accepted by some Churches. They were given the name - Do-Chalcedonian. During the first millennium, a number of Ecumenical Councils were held in the Church, at which the dogmatic and canonical teaching of the Christian Church was more clearly formed.
**************************************** ************
orthodoxy- the "correct faith" of Christians according to the old rite before Nikon's reform. During the time of Nikon in 1666, persecution began against their own brothers in Christ, who did not accept the innovation. The first who refused to accept innovations was Archpriest Avakum. Everyone knows about the innovation of three fingers, instead of the two with which they were baptized (two fingers were adopted from the Old Believers). But that wasn't the point. The most important trick is the destruction of the old and the introduction of a new elite, plus the substitution of the concepts of "Orthodox" for "Orthodoxy". After all, even in the Menaion of the Lord (Christian service books that existed before the appearance of the Bible, which appeared in the late 18th and early 19th centuries as a book, and before that there were the Menaion of the Lord) there is a phrase: "Thou art the land of Row full, and the orthodox Christian faith" , i.e. not the Orthodox faith, but the orthodox. Avakum said "May we not become like the pagans who honor the ancient Gods", i.e. here "pagan" sounds like a representative of another faith. And for this, they began to physically destroy them and some ran to Pomorie, to the White Sea, and someone to the Old Believers in the Siberian Belovodie. And the Old Believers began to give shelter to the Old Believers, and not because the faith is one, but because they are one by blood.

Orthodoxy - Rule the glorification, i.e. glorification of the World of Rule - the World of the Gods, who have acquired a Light body. The correct glorification of the Almighty (Ramhi), and not the Jewish tribal god Sabaoth-Jehovah-Yahweh, who cares only about the Jews. This term was appropriated by Christians who claim that Orthodox Christianity is more than a thousand years old and refer to Metropolitan Hilarion's Sermon on Law and Grace, where the translation is distorted. Chronicles of the X-XIV centuries. convincingly testify that Christianity came to Russia from Greece under the name "Christ's Faith", "New Faith", "True Faith", "Greek Faith", and most often - "Orthodox Christian Faith" ". For the first time, the word "Orthodoxy" is found in the "Message of Metropolitan Photius of Pskov" in 1410-1417, that is, 422 years after the introduction of Christianity. And the phrase ""Orthodox Christianity"" even later - in the Pskov First Chronicle under 1450, 462 years after the baptism of Russia-Ukraine. Question. Why didn't Christians themselves use the word "Orthodoxy" for half a millennium? Everything is simple. Orthodox Christians became Orthodox in the 17th century during the reform of Patriarch Nikon, who ordered changes in the annals. The church, when it split in 1054, the western one became known as "Roman Catholic, Ecumenical with a center in Rome, and the eastern" Greek, Orthodox (True) with a center in Tsargrad (Constantinople). From the Greek "orthodoxy" means "orthodoxy". "Orthos" - means "correct", "direct", "doxos" - "thought", "belief", "faith". That is why Eastern Rite Christians are called "orthodox" in the Western world. Greek Orthodoxy in the 16th century, after the seizure of the Ruthenian lands by Poland, found itself in a tough struggle with Roman Catholicism. Therefore, seeking support for itself, the church came to the only saving way out - to partially adopt the Vedic spiritual customs of the Rusyns. First of all, they turned the "orthodox Christian faith" into "holy Orthodoxy", and by this they attributed all the exploits of pre-Christian Orthodoxy to themselves. Although the Rules praising have nothing to do with Christianity. This church reform under Nikon was also aimed at the destruction of dual faith (Orthodoxy and Orthodoxy). Later, they stopped fighting Vedic Orthodox customs and adopted as their own: the cult of the Ancestors, Green Christmas time, Kupala Christmas time, Intercession, Kalita, Kolyada, Strech (Meeting) and others. This is what the Catholic Church notes that their eastern neighbor has gained pagan cults. This church reform under Patriarch Nikon caused a split into those who supported Nikon's church reform (Nikonians) and those who did not support it - schismatics. The schismatics accused Nikon of trilingual heresy and pandering to paganism, i.e. old Orthodox Faith. On April 17, 1905, by decree of the Tsar, the schismatics began to be called Old Believers. They call themselves righteous Christians. The split weakened the state, and in order to avoid a large-scale religious war, some of the provisions of Nikon's reform were canceled and the term "orthodoxy" was again used. For example, in the Spiritual Regulations of Peter I of 1721 it is said: ""And like a Christian Sovereign, the guardian of orthodoxy and everyone in the Church of the Holy Deanery ..."". There is not a word about Orthodoxy, nor is it in the Spiritual Regulations of 1776 and 1856. Christians themselves say that their church is called Orthodox, because. she correctly glorifies God. The Byzantine monk Belisarius in 532 (456 years before the baptism of Russia), describing the Russian bath, calls the Slavs Orthodox Slavs and Rusyns.

(Valentin Krivonos,
Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine)

Christianity came to Kievan Rus with the name of the faithful after a split in the Christian world:

• The Western, Christian church centered in Rome became known as the Catholic Church, i.e. universal,
• Eastern, Greek-Byzantine church with a center in Constantinople (Constantinople) - Orthodox i.e. Orthodox.

Immediately after the split, they declared anathema to each other and constantly sent curses. When the Vatican redirected its fourth Crusade to Palestine (there were 10 crusades, but it was not possible to finally win back the Vatican from the Muslims) to Constantinople, the central office of the orthodox Eastern Church migrated to Kyiv and Ryazan. Constantinople was defeated and plundered completely. Only after the arrival of the Eastern Church in Russia, the cleansing of the Slavic culture and Vedic Orthodoxy of the ancient Rus began. From that moment on, the Slavs began to forget who they were, where they came from, what the culture and life of their ancestors were like.

The very word Orthodoxy means:

• Glorification (this ancient word has been supplanted by false storytellers from colloquial use) with the kind word of the Glorious World of Rule, i.e. World of Light Gods and our Ancestors.

The opinion was formed that a Russian is necessarily an Orthodox Christian. This formulation is fundamentally wrong. Russian means Orthodox, this concept is undeniable. But a Russian is not necessarily a Christian, because not all Russians are Christians. Many did not accept the slave philosophy, only because of the fear of being burned at the stake, they visited temples ..

Cleansing the faith of the Slavs

The faithful could not come to terms with the fact that Christianity was present in Russia, especially in Muscovy, only formally.

The priests decided to absorb Vedic Orthodoxy in order to do away with it once and for all. And the very name Orthodox was appropriated by Christian church hierarchs cynically, arrogantly, without any consent of the Rus. So appeared in Russia - Christian Orthodoxy (instead of the Vedic). The Vedic Orthodoxy of the ancient Slavic faith burned out on the fires of cruel Christianity, along with the ancient texts and spiritual leaders of Vedic Orthodoxy - the Magi.

The Slavs of the Vedic culture did not have a centralized religious authority, striving for usurpation and enrichment. Vedic Orthodoxy was not a religion, but a faith. It did not build expensive temples, as it believed that it was useless. The Slavs kept their gods in their hearts. Statues were erected only at crossroads and on the outskirts of settlements. They never went to atone for their sins, because they never sinned. The Slavic ethnic group is a meek, hardworking people and achieved everything only through their own labor.

Before Christian Russia

Modern scientists, historians and theologians continue to try to impose on the world that Russia, it seems, became Orthodox, with the baptism of Russia and the spread of Byzantine Christianity among the dark, wild, mired in ignorance, Slavs.

This formulation is very convenient to use to distort history and belittle the significance of the most ancient, colorful folklore.

and saturated with all sorts of traditions of culture, all Slavic peoples

Vedic Orthodoxy. Of which Christianity, poor in traditions and rites

borrowed a lot of things, and later ascribed to itself without any shame.

Some two centuries ago, Easter eggs (film 11 minutes: http://vk.com/video202233038_168165820 )

and embroidered shirts were under the strictest ban on the part of the priesthood. The Christian leaders were so dumb as to say that a woman has no soul. What nonsense?

What could Christian missionaries know about the culture and Faith of the Slavic peoples? How could the bearers of Christianity understand the culture of the Northern peoples with:

• a different mentality, devoid of the concepts of money-grubbing and violence
• a different worldview, the Slavs lived in harmony with the environment in a creative, creative frame of mind?

Here is an example of a description of the life of the Slavs in the view of one of the Christian missionaries:

• “Orthodox Slovenes and Rusyns are wild people and their life is wild and godless. Naked men and girls are locked together in a hotly heated hut and torture their bodies, slashing each other with tree branches mercilessly to the point of exhaustion, then run out naked and jump into an ice hole or a snowdrift. And, having cooled down, they again run into the hut to torture themselves with rods.

How else could the Greek-Byzantine missionaries, who never even took a bath in their lives, understand a simple Orthodox rite - visiting a Russian bath. In their narrow imagination, it really was something wild and incomprehensible. I think that one example given is enough to understand who can, in fact, be considered savages: those who regularly visited baths, or those who never bathed in their lives.

P.S.

Cunningly wise ministers of Christ always rely on falsification. And in this case, it seems, as the earliest written use of the word "Orthodoxy", which is recorded in the territory of Russia in"Sermon on Law and Grace" (1037-1050) Metropolitan Hilarion:

• Praise the praiseworthy voices of the Roman countryPetraand Paula, image inѣ rovash in Jesus Christ, the Son of God; Asia and Ephesus, and Patm John the Evangelist, India Thomas, Egypt Mark. All countries and cities, and people to honor and glorify each and every teacher, whom I taught Orthodox ѣ and in ѣ r ѣ

In the quote - I'm Orthodox ѣ and in ѣ rѣ - the words Orthodox, it simply couldn't be. Because only in 1054 Christianity was divided - into Catholics and Orthodox (non-Orthodox).

• In the beginning, the teaching of Jesus was called the teaching of the fisherman. In the future, I sometimes used the symbol of the fish. Just as the Gauls used the symbol of the red rooster, and the Jews - the goat.

And on In the official language of the Christian Church on the territory of Russia, the term "Orthodox" began to be used only at the end of the 14th - beginning of the 15th century. Most actively, the terms "Orthodox" and "Orthodoxy" came into use only - in the 16th century.That's how easy it is for storytellers to lie, they pass false information into history.

Insofar as too many questions appeared regarding the word Orthodoxy, Khinevich decided to unravel this tangle of contradictions by examining the chronology of this word.

Let's not forget when the Bible appeared

Biblical mythology, as such, has not yet come to fruition. XI century. It was in fragmentary versions with many significant contradictions. And until the end of the 15th century (and possibly until the end of the 16th century), biblical mythology in the modern sense was completely absent. Not only in the East, but also in the West.

Even in the thirteenth century (not to mention XI ), the Pope said that people already learned too much. If, however, they also learn everything that various texts and in various books tell about, then there will be a source of great danger, for they will ask questions for which the clergy have no answers . And the Bible will begin to be called - mythology.

And finally, in 1231Gregory IX with his bull banned laymen to read the Bible . Moreover, the ban was formally canceled only by the "Second Vatican Council",opened by the popeJohn XXIII in 1962.

Historical documents report that there were repeated attempts to allow access to the reading of biblical mythology to a wide audience, but each time new bans came out. All this suggests that the church was afraid of exposing the biblical texts, which were copied from the Aryan Avesta. Historians wrote: "The Church forbids the distribution of books of scripture among the laity and considers it a serious crime to translate these books from incomprehensible Latin into popular languages."

From time to time, new prohibitions were issued. So at the cathedral in Beziers in 1246 we find: "As for the divine books, then the laity should not have them even in Latin; as for the divine books in the vernacular, then do not allow them at all either from the clergy or from the laity." The edict of Charles IV at the end of the 14th century states: "According to the canonical regulations, it is not appropriate for laymen of both sexes to read anything from the scripture, even in the vernacular."In Russia, although not in such an open form as in Catholic countries, there were calls: "Forbid the common people to read the Bible."

• But most likely, all the prohibitions were because the biblical mythology, as such, has not yet taken place. It was in fragmentary versions with many significant contradictions. And until the end of the 15th century (and possibly until the end of the 16th century), biblical mythology in the modern sense was completely absent. Not only in the East, but also in the West.

The well-known church historian A.V. Kartashev wrote:

• "The first manuscript for the entire East (even before the advent of the printing press) was the Bible of 1490, created by Archbishop Gennady of Novgorod ... Such an early interest in mastering the full biblical text appeared in Russia in the 15th century", p.600.

Thus, if at the very end of the 15th century the awakening of interest in the complete Bible is regarded by experts as too early (!), then what can we say about the 14th or 13th centuries? At that time, as we see, no one in the East was even interested in Biblical mythology. And in the West they didn't read it, because it was "forbidden". The question is - who read it in those centuries? Yes, it simply did not exist. But the lie-tellers went so far in their falsification that they began to date the bible, you will simply be surprised - I century.

About the split

Schism in Christianity , after which the division finally occurredChurches on the catholic and orthodox , happened in 1054.The division caused by the split has not been overcome to this day, despite the fact that in1965 mutual anathemas and curses on each other,were mutually withdrawndadPaul VI

• For the first time, anathemas and curses were lifted before the first crusade (the campaign of the poor in 1096). So, as the Vatican alone, without the financial support of Byzantium, could not overcome the Muslims. They were forced to unite in front of one common enemy.

Disagreements arose overdogmatic and canonical, as well as liturgicaland disciplinary nature, and began long before, instructed his assistantthrow out of the tabernaclesHoly Giftsprepared according to the Catholic custom fromunleavened breadand stomp their feet, openly, in the presence of a large crowd. All this demonstrates a clearly low culture and a conspicuous mentality of Christian officials.

• And we are surprised at the bloody crusades against the civilian population of the Baltic countries, and the bonfires of the Inquisition blazing all over Europe, and country torture huts for the recalcitrant ...

Birth of the Christian Church

Christianity was persecuted and not numerous of its supporters were simply killed without punishment. The fourth century was a turning point in the history of Christianity. In the fourth century, the largest at that time, the Arab-Semitic community, led by the Flavin Semite, Flavius ​​Valerius Aurelius Constantine, seized power.

Under him, Christianity became a permitted religion, thanks to the Edict of Milan, from 313.

Under Constantine, the First Ecumenical Council in Nicaea was held, at which the Creed (a brief summary of the dogmas used in the liturgy) was formulated - the doctrine of the consubstantial Trinity. Thus, a modified, from the Vedic Orthodoxy of Russia, trinity appeared in Christianity: Father-Son-Holy Spirit. The concept of the trinity has existed in Russia for 1000 years, and in India for several millennia. This is the first symbol that was borrowed by priests from the Vedic culture of the ancient Slavs.

Since that time, many sects and trends in Christianity have appeared. It's like someone dumped them out of a bag. The most aggressive struggle was waged with a sect called Arianism.

Arianism appeared in the IV century by the name of its creator - an Alexandrian priest with the name Arius. He argued that Christ was created by God, and therefore,
--- firstly, has the beginning of its being
--- secondly, it is not equal to him: in Arianism, Christ is not consubstantial with God, as the opponents of Arius, Bishops Alexander of Alexandria and then Athanasius, argued, but only similar to him.

What the Arians asserted was the following: God the Father, after the dispensation of the world, became the cause of the birth of the Son and, by His will, embodied His essence into another, created from nothing, into a new and different God; and there was a time when the Son did not exist. that is, he brought the hierarchy of relations into the Trinity.

In the same century, the formation of monasticism takes place. Under the reign of Julian (361-363), the persecution of Christians was again organized. For this, he earned the nickname "The Renegade". AT V century, the first major schism occurred in the Church. The Fourth Ecumenical Council at Chalcedon was not accepted by some Churches. They were given the name - Do-Chalcedonian. During the first millennium, a number of Ecumenical Councils were held in the Church, at which the dogmatic and canonical teaching of the Christian Church was more clearly formed.
