Clichés are overused nuggets of wisdom we tend to ignore. Unfortunately, it often takes going through the experience to realize that clichés are overused for a reason.
Honest Question:
What makes the persons who wrote the Bible infallible (i.e., Paul, Peter, Matthew, Moses, etc.)? Why are they infallible and not, let’s say, Polycarp who was a disciple to the evangelist John?
More importantly, what determines infallibility?
Help me answer this question: What is the Gospel?

Don't get married because it feels right.
Get married because this is the person you hope to enter the Kingdom of Heaven with.
In one sentence, plainly state what you believe the goal of Christianity is and how a person achieves that goal?
Truth is not rational but experiential. People like this would have crucified Christ with the Pharisees saying, “it is expedient that one man should suffer.” We worship what we know in spirit and in truth but they worship what they do not know b/c they refused to love the truth
I ran the internal critiques on my views. These guys are raging because I've read the Apostolic Fathers and it only made me more protestant lol. didn't see their modern dogmas in the writings of Clement, Ignatius or Polycarp. that drives them nuts. they're incapable of owning their doctrinal development.
LORD forgive him for he knows not what he does. Forgive all those who erroneously attack the Orthodox Church. Have mercy on them and manifest yourself to them as you once did to Saul on the road to Damascus. Shine your everlasting light on the darkness of their nous. Amen.

SAN FRANCISCO — The Missions and Evangelism Ministry of the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of San Francisco will host a free online presentation titled “America as a Mission Field: What Is the Gospel?” on June 9, 2026, at 5:30 p.m. PST via Zoom. Organizers say the 90-minute session is part of an ongoing effort to explore how Orthodox Christianity can be shared in contemporary American society.
Listen to the life of St. Basil the Great or any contemporary elder on @PatristicNectar and you will clearly see the difference between true men of God and this baloney.
If only we could silence our detractors with the witness of our own life.

The gospel is watered down with words like “nice.” It wasn’t nice when God expelled Adam from Paradise. That’s was God’s love. It wasn’t nice when God brought the flood. It wasn’t nice when Christ whipped the merchants. God is not nice, He is loving, merciful, and just.

“Nicer” is not a measure of holiness. A heart transformed is not about being nice, it’s about being holy. And you can’t fit “holy” into a “nice” model of Christianity.
A hymn I wrote during my time in seminary. The last stanza comes directly from the Paschal homily of St. John Chrysostom.
