Orthodoxy

Orthodoxy, primarily referring to Eastern Orthodoxy, is a Christian tradition emphasizing a set of ancient beliefs, rituals, and practices rooted in the early Church. It values liturgical worship, sacred traditions, and doctrinal continuity maintained through centuries. Orthodoxy considers itself faithful to the teachings of Jesus Christ and the Apostles, with a strong sense of community and spiritual discipline. It differs from other Christian branches in areas like theology, church structure, and worship style, often emphasizing mystical experience and the importance of tradition in guiding faith and practice.
