Terrific to see an entire apostolic succession from the apostle to the present day.
ReplyDeleteWe can, and should, see our brothers in Orthodoxy as true brothers and work toward a healing of the 1054 schism - which was largely political in nature - so that we may (again) be One, just as the Father and the Son are One.

No corrections, except that the Patriarchate of Constantinople claims St. Andrew as its founder, but that, according to the article on St. Andrew, he chose and ordained St. Stachys as the "first" bishop of Byzantium (Constantinople). So, they trace their apostolic succession to St. Andrew but do not consider him the "first" bishop.
ReplyDeleteFrom what I understand after reading the article there.
Dear Scott, it's always the same : we want to be brothers with "the others", but they don't want this towards us. We can't wipe out reality for our "feelings of brotherhood". Most orthodoxe reject many catholic dogma's, doing so they reject God's will. It's up to them to convert, be humble and accept the truth. How could "orthodoxe" become one with us if they reject the lawful Magisterium of R.C. Church? Even between themselves the Orthodoxe are extremely divided an unwilling to "unite". We can have dreams, but we also must accept reality, that has all to do with truth. If the western world would not be so modernist, probably many Orthodoxe would come back to the One R.C. Church. Now they see the anarchy in our churches and say : "this can not be from God". But it's no excuse not to convert to the one and only R.C. Faith.

Tony,
ReplyDeleteI do agree with you that sentiments among many, if not most, of Eastern Orthodoxy are opposed to reunification, still our hope and desire must match that of the Father and the Son - to be One. If "they" do not share in that hope - then the objective on-looker should consider who is more in line with the desire of God in this respect - and choose to be part of the Catholic Church and/or an Eastern tradition which is in communion with the Bishop of Rome - and there are several of those.
The primary reason for posting the Apostolic Succession of St. Andrew was to show to our Protestant brethren that apostolic succession is REAL and remains the backbone of orthodoxy (small "o") for Christianity - as it has throughout the history of Christendom - from Day One.
Please note the addition of the "Apostolic Successions" page at the top of the blog. I've added several other apostolic successions.
In JMJ,
