The ABC's of Orthodoxy

J E S U S

The word "Jesus" in Hebrew means "Saviour", "Redeemer". The name "Christ" means "anointed" therefore, the name Jesus Christ indicates that our Saviour, by the very name He had, was a Redeemer and Prophet.

The Orthodox church teaches that Jesus Christ is one Person with two natures: the Human and Divine. These two natues are united in the Person of Christ and can never be separated, changed, or intermingled.

Q. What do we know of our Saviour, Jesus Christ?

a) Jesus. Christ is the Son of God.
b) He came down from heaven for our salvation.
c) He was incarnate of the Holy Ghost and the Virgin Mary and became man.
d) He was crucified for us and for the forgiveness of our sins.
e) He rose the third day according to the scripture.
f) He ascended into heaven and sits on the right hand of the Father.
g) He shall come again to judge the living and the dead.
