About Orthodox Christianity

The Orthodox Church is the One, Holy, Universal Church founded upon Pentecost by the Holy Apostles in the Year 33 AD. Their teaching by scripture or word, the liturgical tradition, hymns, church art, personal practice of faith, and understanding of salvation are firmly rooted in the teaching and example of Christ and the Apostles in the first century. As the conversion to Christianity accelerated, the practices of the Church were adapted to meet the needs of larger, and larger communities. The Orthodox Church has repeatedly affirmed, not changed, the teaching of the Apostles through councils, the last one held in 787.
