Questions from a Presbyterian

Hi mcarmichael,

It's a long journey, I went to WTS for a while. You can search Jason Stellman, a former PCA pastor. My story is quite similar to him. You can find me on Facebook.
In brief, for about 7 years I was on my way in becoming an Eastern Orthodox. But I was troubled by their stance towards Assyrian Churches (Non-Ephesian) and Oriental Churches (Non-Chalcedonian). They consider Assyrian and Oriental Christians as unbaptized pagans devoid of all grace. While Catholic in 1994 issued a joint declaration with Assyrian Church to clarify the issue of the title of Theotokos and mutually lifted the anathemas. That wouldn't be possible in EO.

Sincerely,
Reply
