Presented below position Synod of the Romanian Orthodox Church on developments these recent of România on the reception of the Holy and Great Council of the Orthodox Church(Crete, 2016): In the working session of the Holy Synod of the Romanian Orthodox Church, met under the chairmanship of His Beatitude Patriarch Daniel, on December 16, 2016 , in Room Synod of the Patriarchal Residence, has noted with dismay the recent developments in Romania to negative reactions on reception of the Holy and Great Council of the Orthodox Church (Crete, 2016). Romanian Patriarchate stressed on several occasions that " the Synod of Crete raised no new dogmas, but confessed that the Orthodox Church is One, Holy, Catholic, et and Apostolic Church of Christ" et i to its handy constantly peaceful and united tert ii Church with full responsibility, knowing the words of St. John Chrysostom, who says that " nothing can offend God more than the division of the Church! Even I committed et and thousands of good things, we who sf complicated r â m complicated m pleroma church complicated are not less tert Initial worthy of punishment signed in December â t those who crucified His body " (St. John Chrysostom golden Homilies on Ephesians , 11, PG 62, 85).
However, we note with sorrow in my soul that, passionately and harmful, some people rebellious misled some clergy and faithful stating falsely and denigrating the Synod of Crete as proclaimed ecumenism as a dogma of faith, and some clergy, believing this untruth, they interrupted their bishop uncanonically remembrance, disturbing the peace and unity of the Church by their divisive attitude. Holy Synod of the Romanian Orthodox Church Synod pointed out that neither of Crete and any other Orthodox Synod said no ecumenism as a dogma of faith, as any canonical Orthodox Synod has ever said ecumenism as " panheresy ". Therefore, the accusations of opponents of the Synod of Crete are unjust, irresponsible et i d signed a complicated ing for unity of the Church . In terms of orthodox ecumenism lucid is not a new dogma of faith, but a spiritual attitude of dialogue and cooperation between Christians, instead of acrimony hateful confessional and confrontational violence that occurred centuries row Christian history. The ecumenical movement was born in the early 20th century, when Christian missionaries Westerners preaching the gospel of love non-Christians in Africa and Asia, while Christian et Tini were split tert i t n many denominations Christian et you antagonist who hated and opposed each other their attitude is not man 's complicated testimony positive missionary complicated BC in front tert other religions et nor its in front ţ the company tert civil . By participating in this movement for dialogue between Christians of different denominations, the Church has considered that restoration of Christian unity unorthodox divided among themselves over time can be achieved only on the basis of faith tert her church nedespăr tert ite of Christ, the Church Orthodox complicated , the one, Holy â nt complicated , Catholic complicated et i Apostolic complicated , which we confess in the Creed Orthodox ( Nicene ). In this sense, the Church believes that bring in dialogue with other Christians just witness the One Church of Christ, which they were separated tert it while the deviation from the orthodox faith . Of course, any increase et tin Orthodox is not obliged complicated dialogue or was complicated cooperate with the tert and increases et tini if complicated is team signed c complicated - et loses faith ţ the Orthodox complicated . Q n that et time, is wrongfully signed consider complicated m c complicated to ţ and increases et Tini orthodox et i hold dialogue complicated theological et and cooperate complicated practically its in life ţ the company tert them with Christian et tini other complicated confession are tr complicated d complicated tori Orthodoxy . One can remain faithful Orthodox Christian Orthodoxy peacefully without becoming fanatical, if professes Orthodox faith in dialogue with other Christians, without compromise. Also, the Holy Synod noted with wonder the attitude of non-canonical and aggressive theologians and clergy (priests and bishops) of the two sister Orthodox Churches, to come eparchies of the Romanian Patriarchy to criticize hierarchy it and instigate some clergy and faithful to our Church hierarchy disobedience. For this reason, the Holy Synod of the Romanian Orthodox Church decided that was signed be brought to the attention et tin tert of Q ntâistătătorilor sister Orthodox Churches ( Moscow Patriarchate and the Orthodox Church of Greece ) situations where some priests and hierarchs shall conduct uncanonically aggressive and unruly activities dioceses Romanian Patriarchate, inciting to disobedience, rebellion and disunity. Clerics, monks and lay people involved in actions of rebellion and defaming the Synod of Crete, ignoring the fact that a council can not be judged only by another Synod, will be called to straightening through dialogue pa et nic et and it complicated the clarification of the canonical signed on division severity et the troubled complicated country p complicated ts et i joined complicated tert ii Church . Similarly, sanctions tert actions administrative et and canonical discipline will apply to its ndreptarea clerics, monks et and laymen who persist complicated t n r's state of complicated zvr complicated tire et i divisive disorders â nd peace et the unity of the Church . It was also reminded that if the Synod Fathers who participated in the Second Ecumenical Council (of 381) operated three omissions and 10 additions or diortosiri the text of the Creed formulated by c complicated Tre P complicated rin tert ii First Ecumenical Council ( in 325), in order to clarify and complete text synodal initially the more future Holy and Great Council of the Orthodox Church can express, hue and develop documents formulated and approved by the Synod of Crete, to avoid misinterpretation damaging peace and unity of Christ's Church. In this respect, noteworthy is the decision of the Holy Synod of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church which, although it has some critical comments and proposed future amendments to some documents of the Synod of Crete, however, decided " to keep the fraternal communion, the Eucharist, spiritual, dogmatic et the canonical signed with all local Orthodox churches - both those who attended the Synod of Crete, as et and those who did not participate. " In conclusion, any clarification on exposure Orthodox faith must be made within ecclesial communion, not in a state of rebellion and disunion , because the Holy Spirit is at the same time , the Spirit of truth (cf. John 16, 13) and Holy Shareset OUTPUT or communion (cf. 2 Cor 13, 13). Press Office of the Romanian Patriarchate
