Describe the Orthodox church in one word:

[AJB4]

Old

:ebil:

[the_Abbot]

True

[Hoankan]

Complete

[Tsarina]

Truth (first word that pooped into my mind when I read your post).

LoL.. "Old" I love that Ajb4.

[Nichole]

Mystical!

[SeraphimSarov]

Truth.

[Akathist]

True

[SaintPhotios]

Christ (Body of, that is)

[Philothei]

:liturgy: The Body of Christ:liturgy:

[AJB4]

Divine

[-Kyriaki-]

hm, can i have two one word answers?

Mystery

and

Wonderful!

[Shubunkin]

True

[Xpycoctomos]

Orthodox

[-Kyriaki-]

Xpy, that's cheating, but very funny! ^_^

[Xpycoctomos]

How about... ancient :) Sounds cooler than "old"

[Shubunkin]

In two words: Eternal Truth

[ClementofRome]

uhhhh two words....but with the hyphen, I am calling it one word! :)

"life-changing"

[JuvenalyMartinka]

Eternal

[Xpycoctomos]

uhhhh two words....but with the hyphen, I am calling it one word! :)

"life-changing"
hey, if that's not cheating... then I want to stick with my "Orthodox"!

[Xpycoctomos]

cat

[JuvenalyMartinka]

kitties!

[-Kyriaki-]

what, like cat-echumens?

[lighthousekid]

[Shubunkin]

The first Christians would have recognized it. :)

[lighthousekid]

The first Christians would have recognized it. :)
Well, but I am not one of those.

[JuvenalyMartinka]

Neither are any of us...

[Dorothea]

The Way

[AJB4]

I just got a nasty PM from a certain somebody (*ahem* -DRA-) that said:

'Unscriptural'

[JuvenalyMartinka]

Just pray for them and continue having Faith.

[Mary of Bethany]

Whole


Mary

[Knowledge3]

Kingdom

[nutroll]

Orthodox
that was going to be my answer, but I wasn't going to capitalize it. I guess if I had to pick another word, I would say "Life"

[Jacob4707]

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

[Xpycoctomos]

I just got a nasty PM from a certain somebody (*ahem* -DRA-) that said:

'Unscriptural'
I wonder if when people do stuff like that they think: "Hmmmm, if I send this, maybe it will make him think and not join that Church" lol

That's why the bumper sticker syndrom is so funny to me. Do you think anyone has ever been lead to Christ by reading "In case of Rapture, this car will be unmanned"? Duh.

[Xpycoctomos]

Well, but I am not one of those.
No problem. It's okay and natural that it's foreign to you. Everything new is. I'm not pressuring you at all, I am just cautioning against perhaps maing that a litmus test either way.

[Dewi Sant]

Trinity

bumping this thread....

Was the word,home, used to describe it?

[katherine2001]

I agree with Prodomos. I like his answer:

Repentence.

However, there is no way to describe Orthodoxy in one word. Father Vasily would say, "Is outrage!"

[angelosgabriel]

life

[HowardDean]

deep.

[-Kyriaki-]

HOME. It's been used a thousand times, but it's true.

Orthodoxia :D That's one word, right?

[Kristos]

(I need to be more consistent with my interest of Orthodoxy).

[EmperorConstantine]

Authentic.

[Kolya]

!)Undiluted
2} Complete
3) Salvation

Thats 3 words, but each stand on its own.

[-Kyriaki-]

Mercy.

[EmperorConstantine]

Food.
(Wha'...!? I'm just saying what we're all thinkin'!)
Which brings another word...


Truthful! ^_^

[katherine2001]

Like Kolya, I'm going to use 3 words, but they each stand on their own also:

1. Life
2. Mercy
3. Healing
