	Oriental Orthodoxy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term Oriental Orthodoxy refers to the churches of Eastern Christian traditions that keep the faith of only the first three ecumenical councils — the First Council of Nicaea, the First Council of Constantinople and the Council of Ephesus — and rejected the dogmatic definitions of the Council of Chalcedon.
		Oriental Orthodox Churches reject the Monophysite teachings of Eutychus and the Dyophysite teachings of Nestorius.
		The Oriental Orthodox churches are therefore often called Monophysite churches, although they reject this label, which is associated with Eutychian Monophysitism, preferring the term "non-Chalcedonian" or "Miaphysite" churches.

	Talk:Oriental Orthodoxy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Other than that issue, I think if you want to explain what Oriental Orthodoxy is, it is better to mention the schism of AD 451 than to say the Oriental Orthodox churches are older than the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches, since that is not true.
		Oriental Orthodox churches often refer to Eastern Orthodox churches as Chalcedonian, but don't often refer to themselves as Non-Chalcedonian, as it is defining yourself by what you're not.
		AD 451 is the year of the schism in which the Oriental Orthodox churches separated from that large body.

	Ecumenical council - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy, an ecumenical council is a meeting of the bishops of the whole church convened to discuss and settle matters of Church doctrine and practice.
		Eastern Orthodoxy typically views the purely doctrinal canons as dogmatic and applicable to the entire church at all times, while the disciplinary canons are the application of those dogmas in a particular time and place; these canons may or may not be applicable in other situations.
		Both the Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches recognize seven councils in the early years of the church, but Catholics also recognize fourteen councils called in later years by the Pope, whose authority the Eastern Orthodox utterly repudiate as they consider Rome to currently be in schism.

	Eparchy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In Eastern Orthodoxy, Oriental Orthodoxy, and Eastern-rite Catholicism, an eparchy is the jurisdiction of a bishop, corresponding to what in the West is called a diocese.

	Council of Chalcedon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This is the origin of Oriental Orthodoxy, which still today rejects the results of this council.
		Some Oriental Orthodox bishops have indicated that the difference in doctrine was never more than a misunderstanding and have since reintegrated in the Catholic or Eastern Orthodox churches.
		Thus, many understood Eutyches to be advocating a sort of reversal of Arianism -- where Arius had denied the divine nature of Jesus, Eutyches seemed to be denying his human nature.

	Mitre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The mitre or miter is a traditional, ceremonial head-dress of bishops in the Roman Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion, Eastern Orthodoxy and Oriental Orthodoxy.
		Oriental Orthodox bishops sometimes use mitres, either of the Western or Eastern style.
		In its modern form the mitre is a tall folding cap, consisting of two similar parts (the front and back) rising to a peak and sewn together at the sides.

	Beliefnet.com
		The main difference between Oriental Orthodoxy and the rest of established Christianity is that the Oriental Orthodox are miaphysite (one composite nature of Christ both wholly human and divine); and the rest of Christianity is Melkite (two natures of Christ both of which are wholly human and divine united in one person.
		Oriental Orthodoxy is yet another branch -- and it has been either persecuted or neglected by the rest of Christendom for the past 1500 years.
		The Oriental Orthodox are not, as commonly accused, monophysite.

	oriental
		In the broadest sense of the term, Oriental study comprises the scientific investigation and discussion of all topics—linguistics, archæology, ethnology, etc.—connected with the East, in particular, the discovery and interpretation of Eastern literary and archæological remains.
		Modern Oriental research in the Valley of the Nile began in 1798 with the Egyptian campaign of Napoleon, who with characteristic foresight invited M. Gaspard Monge (1746-1818) with a corps of savants and artists to join the expedition.
		In connexion with the impetus given to Biblical Oriental studies in the sixteenth century, mention should be made of the Complutensian Polyglot published under the direction of Cardinal Ximenes (1436-1517).

		They are often called, in English, Oriental Orthodox Churches, to distinguish them from the Eastern Orthodox Churches.
		Communion between Christian Churches has been broken over matters of faith, when each side accused the other of heresy or departure from the true faith (orthodoxy).

		Oriental Orthodoxy affirms that one's spiritual development, growth, maturation and fortification can only come about by a consistent exposure and unified 'experience' of God's grace.
		persons of every age and gender, Oriental Orthodoxy adheres to the belief that everyone should immediately identify with the community and become truly part of the community in all things; from the waters of the font, by and through the Spirit, to the table of the Lord.

	Chrismation
		In the Eastern Church, i.e., in Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, and Eastern-rite Catholic churches, the sacrament may be performed by a priest, and is usually conferred immediately after baptism; therefore, it is usually received by infants.
		Chrismation is the name given in Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox and Eastern-rite Catholic churches to the sacrament known as confirmation in the Latin Rite Catholic churches.
		It is so called because of the holy oil, or chrism, which has been consecrated by a bishop and with which the recipient of the sacrament is anointed, as the priest speaks the words, "the seal of the gift of the Holy Spirit."

	Oriental Orthodoxy - Wikipedia
		The term Oriental Orthodoxy is used to describe those parts of the Eastern branch of Christianity that do not belong to Eastern Orthodoxy, namely the Monophysites and Nestorians.
		The term is often used, but is less than ideal, since "Eastern" and "Oriental" are in fact synonyms.
		(This particular terminology is also impossible in languages such as French, where the word for 'Eastern' is the cognate of 'Oriental'.)

	Deuterocanonical books - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The deuterocanonical books are the books that Catholicism, Eastern Orthodoxy, and Oriental Orthodoxy include in the Old Testament that were not part of the Jewish Tanakh.
		There is also a strong tradition of studying the Book of Enoch in the Ethiopian church, a denominational family in the Oriental Orthodoxy.
		This last book is often relegated to an appendix, because it has certain tendencies approaching pagan thought.

	Ecumenical Review, The: The Oriental Orthodox churches
		The theology of the Oriental Orthodox churches is strongly biblical and patristic and is embodied in Eastern mysticism and spirituality.
		Throughout the centuries-long Christological controversies that marked their relationship with the Greek and Latin churches, the Oriental Orthodox churches remained faithful to the apostolic traditions, the teachings of the early church fathers and the decisions of the first three ecumenical councils, which they considered the unshakable foundation of Christian faith.
		The Oriental Orthodox churches have generally been depicted by Western historians as totally isolated from the rest of the Christian world and concerned with mere survival.

	Leo and Theodoret, Dioscorus and Eutyches
		On the other hand those of the Oriental Orthodox, who have not been Franco-Latinised in important parts of their theology, accept the first three of the Ecumenical Councils, but in reality accept all Seven, a fact which has now become clear in recent agreements.
		That this is so is due to the fact that there are strong indications that today's Orthodox and Oriental Orthodox have doctrinal positions which are not those of the Fathers of neither the first Three, nor of the Seven Ecumenical Councils.
		However, there are indications that something similar has crept into the Oriental Orthodox tradition also, if one may judge by WCC doctrinal documents like BEM and Confessing the One Faith and by papers produced in other dialogue contexts.

	Deacon - TheBestLinks.com - Acts of the Apostles, Anglican, Bishop, Eucharist, ...
		The diaconate is one of three ordained offices in the Roman Catholic, Anglican, Eastern Orthodox, and Oriental Orthodox churches.
		In Roman Catholic, Anglican and Orthodox churches, deacons assist priests in their pastoral and administrative duties, but (in Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy) report directly to the bishop.
		They have a distinctive role in the liturgy, their main tasks being to read the Gospel and assist in the administration of the Eucharist.

	Original Name of the Christian Church
		What compounded the problem at the time was that Pope Dioscoros of Alexandria, a Saint and Teacher of the Oriental Orthodox Churches and the nephew of St Cyril of Alexandria, was a friend of Eutyches and defended his belief in Christ's consubstantiality with His Mother as entirely Orthodox.
		On the Orthodox side, the term means "Nature" and if the Oriental Churches maintained that in Christ there was only one Divine Nature of God the Word Incarnate - then this was a denial of Christ's Humanity.
		The Oriental Churches always maintained the formula of St Cyril of Alexandria: One Divine Nature of God the Word Incarnate.

		Although this remained a numerically minimal presence of Orthodoxy in Britain until this century, the story of the return of Orthodoxy cannot be told without an understanding of the history of Greek immigration.
		ROCOR has shown itself to be highly committed to the growth of British Orthodoxy and, thankfully, it is now emerging from a long period of isolation on the Orthodox scene.
		Although remnants of Orthodox Faith and Life persisted in the churches of Britain during the Second Millennium, the fullness of Orthodoxy was restored only with the arrival of the Greeks to these shores.

		Apart from the Oriental Orthodox is the Byzantine Orthodox (the Orthodox faith within the Eastern Roman Empire), and arguably, the Church of the East (Nestorians)--a group in Asia which split away from the Oriental Orthodox finding favor in the teachings of Nestorius.
		The Oriental Orthodox Faith is the Apostolic Christian Church which historically existed on the frontier and beyond the Roman Empire.
		As most of the Oriental Orthodox resided beyond the Roman Empire to the East, they were given the label "Oriental" by Western Christians.
