    We do not Separate The. CHURCH INTO PIECES. Scripture EXISTS within The Church, for The Church. So the Church KNOWS. The Scripture is a lived thing within The Church. It isn't something you read only. It isn't something you get graded on. It isn't something you are called to recite without understanding. Holy Scriptures are like the engine of a car. ....sure. you can put a nice engine in your garage. But. It won't take you anywhere without the rest of it.

    Orthodox Christians do not Worship Mary. This SFB just DOES NOT understand what ACTUAL Worship IS. MARY was WHO GOD CHOSE to ask to be the Ark of The Incarnate Word. She did NOT HAVE to say yes. But she did. You were not chosen, or clean enough or good enough to even be asked. No one was. She is The Mother of ALL of the Living. That is what it is to understand Mary in the context of The BODY OF JESUS. SO YES, she gets respect and veneration above all other who are of the Living within the Body of Jesus.

    Exactly 1 MINUTE 15 SECONDS into this video and this guy IS ALREADY full of crap. #1 WHY do we Worship on Sunday? ??? BECAUSE it. Is The Apostles teaching. And this is CONTRARY to the 4th commandment. #2 Why do we HAVE Images of Jesus??? BECAUSE IT IS APOSTOLIC TEACHING ...do NOT deny the Incarnation of The Word and still claim you are Christians. The 2nd commandmet is about Idols and Praxis that Israel would have to DEAL with for the next 1000 years. Yet, if one READS Duteronomy and Numbers, one realises the message. Icons of The Truth IMAGES of THE TRUTH are STILL THE TRUTH!

    I’m not persuaded by your argument not only because it’s not consistent with biblical truth, but because of the way you comport yourself. To criticize his position as “Crap” only shows the hypocrisy that is demonstrated on your part (which is one of the reasons why I opted out from converting to Eastern or Oriental Orthodoxy and stuck with biblical truth). I would strongly encourage you to examine yourself before making additional criticisms of others whether it be myself, Pastor Samuel or anyone else.
