	Church Slavonic language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Historically, this language is derived from the Old Church Slavonic language by adapting pronunciation and orthography and replacing some old and obscure words and expressions by their vernacular counterparts (for example from the Old Russian language).
		Although as late as the 1760's Lomonosov argued that Church Slavonic was the so-called "high style" of Russian, within Russia itself this point of view largely vanished in the course of the nineteenth century.
		However, as both languages are Slavic, the borrowings are usually thought of as variants of Russian words, e.g.

	The Orthodox Are Coming (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Orthodox faithful expect to have their voice heard within the European political institutions of which they are now a part, and this poses a direct challenge to the secular framework of the EU.
		A typical example is the Russian Orthodox Church’s efforts to mediate the political crisis between Boris Yeltsin and the State Duma in 1993.
		The issue of the Orthodox Church's stewardship of the community also poses the question of whether Orthodoxy is compatible with capitalist economic development and a global market economy, which many consider as vital to democratic development.

	The Condescension of the Christian West (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		With the exception of Orthodox Christian Albanians, who feel solidarity with their ethnic Kosovar kinsmen, virtually the entire Orthodox Christian world was unanimous in its opposition to the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia.
		And while the Orthodox are aware of ethnic cleansing and other atrocities committed by Serb forces, they know that Serb Christians have also been victims of ethnic cleansing and violence since the disintegration of Yugoslavia and they perceive the West’s effort to resolve the Kosovo crisis as a manifestation of Western one—sidedness.
		The Orthodox Christian belief in the equality and autonomy of the various national churches and patriarchates means that the various churches fashion their beliefs in the absence of supra—national influences such as those represented by the Rome—based papacy at the apex of the Catholic Church.

	History of the Orthodox Church
		Orthodox worship, for example, is nothing less than a witness to history; it recalls, in all its rich diversity, particular historical events not only from the earthly life of the Lord, but from the life of the Church, its saints, ascetics, martyrs, and theologians.
		Orthodox Christianity, in sum, insisted on preaching the Gospel in the ordinary language of the people so as to be directly and immediately understood by the new converts.
		As the Orthodox statement at the Evanston Assembly of 1954 states, it is to "the faith of the ancient, united and indivisible Church of the seven ecumenical councils, namely to the pure and unchanged and common heritage of the forefathers of all divided Christians" that we bear witness.

	Eastern Orthodox and Slavic Evangelicals: What Sets Them Both Apart From Western Evangelicals (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Slavic Christians' fear of the Lord and the weight of their suffering through untold centuries may also help explain why to Western ears the Divine Liturgy and much of Slavic Evangelical hymnody sound somber, haunting, melancholic, even dirge-like.
		Given the strong leadership typically exercised by Slavic Evangelical pastors, as well as by Orthodox priests (when the state does not interfere), it is not surprising that Western Evangelicals sometimes read Eastern church leadership styles as authoritarian, controlling, and contradictory to the Reformation's priesthood of all believers.
		For example, Orthodox and Evangelicals in the East are more likely than Western Christians to frown upon direct clergy participation in politics, and have less of a tradition of prophetic challenges to sweeping social evils in their midst.

	The Orthodox Content in Slavic Literature
		From the time of their conversion to Christianity, beginning in the ninth century, the Slavs were given not only their first written language but also the potential to create an indigenous Christian literature of their own.
		Emphasis on the transitoriness of this world, misfortune and disillusionment once again repressed the earlier optimistic (and more "orthodox" approach) to such an extent that even a great saint and ecclesiastic such as Dimitri of Rostov (1651-1709) was influenced by it.
		Many of the emphases in Andric and in all Slavic literature are again needed in today's world literature, not to bring us further despair but to awaken us to how we can put our present dilemma behind us.

		This being so, our brief survey of the long and complex evolution of Orthodox Christianity begins with the first Pentecost in Jerusalem and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on Christ's small circle of disciples.
