Heresies Are Based On Hellenic Philosophy: Hellenic Problems in Christian Theology

Christian Theology has been in a war against "Hellenization", that is the pagan philosophical influences, and many heresies were ultimately influenced in some way shape or form, Hellenic thought. Here is a summary of Christianity's war against Hellenism, and how it chooses to solve the problems. Note that this video is not by any means exhaustive at all, rather a simplification of what has happened in history.

Something I've learned since delving into Orthodoxy for years now (as of now: I was baptized 2 years ago but was studying Orthodoxy since 2016 and went to Church a year before my baptism) is that our philosophy is a rejection of Dichotomies. And thinking in terms of Both-And.

I was speaking to a native Greek who visited my family this Christmas and she told me, *"It's good that you're interested in philosophy because the Greeks back home have forgotten it"* . Ooof, well at least we won't be causing more of these "waves" to occur, lol

Question: Is anyone who questions or disagrees with a specific belief in orthodox Christianity a heretic?

Thanks for explaining Hellenic errors etc.

The carnal/natural mind CANNOT understand spiritual things. That was there problem: idolatry & exaltation of the human mind. God’s thoughts are higher than ours. One needs the Holy Spirit to reveal God…not a table of philosophers. God is not the author of confusion.

Methaphysik argument will not be 100% solved accurately, not even with our high tech measurement tools we nowdays have, ...so for what all this "nonsense" polemik???

What is the difference between soul and spirit

[elizabethwest]

It represents worship of multi gods Greek gods has nothing to do with Christianity it's named after Helen which was Constantine the Great mother Constantine pretended to be Christian because it was popular at the time so that he could gain the trust of the people to fight for him by putting the symbol of the cross on himself but yet was a pagan and worshipped pagan gods and he cut the heads off of the Roman gods with Greek Theology of Gods new heads and faces on them and gave them names like Saint Peter and Saint John and so on the disciples that followed Jesus Christ he also promoted the worship of Mother Mary Called ger Mother of God which there is no mention of the mother of God anywhere, in fact he says I'm not of this Earth, which is actually ashtar and tammuz her son, child which the mother and child deity comes in as a mockery of the realness I that is to come later on and did come and will return which id Jesus Christ the lord and savior

It's embarassing. They did not understand that the HOLY SPIRIT is THE FATHER IN A SPIRIT FORM, that is, NO THIRD divine person exists.
Jesus states "(1) God is (2) a spirit". Well, Jesus simply calls Him sometimes (1) "Father", sometimes (2) "Spirit" (Holy) depending on the situation, but in both cases you have the SAME ONE GOD, not TWO different Divine Persons!
EVIDENCE of that can be obtained by checking out who is INSIDE JESUS:
ONLY THE FATHER is inside Jesus to HELP him, "I am in the Father and the FATHER IN ME". Neither A. the "Lord who gives life" (a nonexisting Lord) nor B. the Paraclete IS THERE, He will be sent after Jesus' death! The ONLY ONE with Jesus is the FATHER, thus you are now able to IDENTIFY who is the HOLY SPIRIT INSIDE JESUS: THE FATHER!
The Paraclete is NOT the Holy Spirit! Jn. 14:26 has been simply tampered with by a trinitarian supporter who "was short of Gods" (not happy with the nonexisting "Lord who gives life") and decided to "upgrade" the unknown Paraclete. Why looking for additional Gods ? "On that day YOU will know that I am in my FATHER, YOU are in ME, and I am in YOU.", i.e. you can see that NO PARACLETE IS THERE, just the FATHER and the SON !
The Father is of course the almighty God. The almighty God does NOT COME PERSONALLY here on earth "the world has not known you". This is why "No man has seen God at any time.", INVISIBILITY is not an issue, He cannot be seen because He is ABSENT! The HOLY SPIRIT (Spirit of God) is THE PRESENCE of the almighty God - however only in the form of a spirit ( "God is a spirit") - who INTERACTS with people. You can thus see the difference between God and the Holy Spirit: God is absent, his Spirit is here instead. Being a spirit means: NO ONE is here in reality ! This is why Jesus INHERITS the kingdom of God "...and has given ALL THINGS into His hand." Jesus HAD BEEN that One almighty God, He differs in that He is not omnipotent anymore. God is thus made by the Son and the Father in form of a spirit. We can say that God is more than One and less than Two in number.

Orthodox when I use the Greek language

[liamconverse]

This seems stupid because all of the dogmatic statements on Christology and the Trinity that you profess borrow terms and concepts from Hellenic thought. If there was no Hellenic philosophical tradition you wouldn't even have the grammar the explicate the theology that you adhere to.
