Please remember to keep all comments respectful (if you are a Christian, you represent Christ at all times) and on topic. Please, no foul language. Comments which do not follow these rules will be deleted. Critiques are fine, but they have to pertain specifically to the question discussed in the video- those who simply use comments as a platform will be blocked. Such is not a statement that you are a bad or dumb person, but that I don't think your participation will facilitate substantive discussion. I know some will take my enforcement to be too strict, uneven, or unfair- but ultimately it is what it is.

Thanks so much for watching.

May the leaders of both the West and Eastern Churchs bring about the unity Jesus prayed for in the Garden

Its interesting because as a Reformed Protestant we make the focus mostly on Rome and very few discussions are had about Greek Orthodox. Im sure part of it is the history and culture but Orthodox almost gets forgotten about.

That last point I'm having a little trouble understanding. Have you done a video on that point alone, and if not, could you do one? Thank you!

[robertortiz-wilson]

Straightforward and well put! Love from your Catholic brother!

[elf-lordsfriarofthemeadowl]

Love and agreement here from your Catholic brothers and sisters!

[NeerajRajput]

Some of this went over my head but I am going to keep studying. God Bless you in Jesus name

[seansensei]

I hope we Catholics and our Orthodox Brothers can come together again. Our relations have been better, but I hope some day we are United again.

Reformed Baptist here. Thanks for fairly representing us!

Wow you packed a doctoral level dissertation into this short, thank you so much, I really respect your work and your apologetics for orthodox christianity. Orthodox teachings reflect our understanding that our taste of heaven can and does start Now❤❤❤

[hismajesty]

As a Protestant, thank you for being fair and straightforward. Despite our differences, y’all are my brothers in Christ.

I think Lutherans and Anglicans accept the first 7 ecumenical councils as authoritative for interpretation of scripture. We also tent to be more liturgical than than say, American evangelicals.

“The differences between Catholics and Protestants, is the same as the difference between Orthodox and Protestants” lol

Props for making an informational video that doesn’t sound like it was made by a 14 year old kid who just changed positions a couple months ago and has a thinly veiled contempt for the other.

Greek Orthodoxy and Roman Catholicism are the bands of brass and iron bound to the Babylonian stump of Daniel 4.

[joshkd]

Why would God allow His devout Catholic (defender of the faith) servants to become Protestant reformers at that time, that would change the course of Western History? 🤔

Why can't we ge friends?
Love that song!

I'm just a Babtist, I'm not sure that last point is right. I don't remember Jesus imputating anything.

If you mean, the Holy Spirit can compell, or influence you to do the right thing, then yes. We do believe that.

I thought Orthodox Christians also believed that, so I'm not at all sure what you meant.
