What is the Difference Between Orthodoxy and Western Confessions?
Metropolitan Anthony (Khrapovitsky) of Kiev and GalichAnswering this question, many educated Russians would mention the rites, – but we hardly need wasting time on this sort of nonsense. Not much closer to the truth, however, is another opinion, fairly common among those who are better versed in theology. They would tell us about the filioque, about Papal supremacy and other teachings rejected by Orthodoxy, and also about the teachings of both Latin and Orthodox faiths which are rejected by the Protestants. It would turn out that Orthodoxy has no specific substance of her own, equally unfamiliar to all of the European confessions. But because they have originated one from another, we might expect that there are certain treasures of Christ’s truth which cannot be found in any of them: a heresy born of another heresy must keep some part of the parent if it is not returning to the True Church.
