Overview

To many Americans, Eastern Orthodoxy is limited to such ethnic immigrant communities as the Greek, Russian, Syrian, and Coptic churches. The Greek Orthodox Church is primarily known for its annual festivals. The Evangelical and Orthodox worlds are basically isolated from each other. To many Christians, Eastern Orthodoxy is simply Roman Catholicism without a Pope. But beginning in the 1980’s, thousands of evangelical pastors, missionaries and artists converted to Eastern Orthodoxy. The Orthodox Church in America has now experienced the largest mass conversions in its history.

Dr. Robert Morey (PhD, DMin, DD, MDiv, BA) has spent over five years investigating the truth claims of Eastern Orthodoxy. With meticulous research and massive documentation, Dr. Morey has traced the historical and philosophic origins of its doctrines and rituals, and has now written an Evangelical response to Eastern Orthodoxy. This work has already received international recognition of for its careful scholarship, logical analysis, and biblical insight into the history and teachings of Eastern Orthodoxy and will be considered the classic Evangelical response to the Eastern Church for many years to come.

    This book is a sad and uninformed diatribe to the extent that I am not sure I will be able to finish it. For example, the author says "Despite his “frosty” home life, Frankie is absolutely correct that Orthodoxy is a different religion from either Roman Catholicism or Protestantism. It should not be viewed as another Christian denomination." This fails to recognize that Eastern Orthodoxy and Catholicism were the same religion until 1054 or later and that Eastern rite Catholics are nearly indistinguishable from their Eastern Orthodox counterparts. He speaks of icon being central centuries before there is historical evidence of such importance. He bemoans the conflation of Hellenism with Semitic Christianity ignore how tightly tied Western Christianity, especially Protestant Churches, are to Greek philosophy. He ties Eastern Orthodox with Egypt ... which as the Coptic Church shows, it more firmly tied to Oriental Orthodox. He produces long rails against Orthodox without every providing any evidence supporting his claims. In short, his books is a waste of screen space. There are other apologists again Eastern Orthodox who make much better arguments complete with documentation. The book is so bad that even Gemini is dismissive.
