Very superficial treatment. "It's all just a big misunderstanding, language, politics, etc. You say 'tomayto,' we say 'tomahto.' What difference does it make, can't we just get along?" This is called indifferentism. Neither Orthodox nor Roman Catholics over the past 1,000 years were idiots. The Filioque is a genuine, profound, fundamental question of Trinitarian dogma. For the Orthodox, it is a heretical innovation. If Roman Catholics, however well-meaning, don't understand that, they understand nothing about us. We will not sacrifice truth for unity.

You failed to mention that the arc of Constantine has many Pagan symbols.....many doubt the authenticity of his "conversion" believing that it was more likely a tool to unite and control....

You mean “false Christian history “. Revelation 17:4-6

From the religious cults that both serve Satan.

Scripture gives clues to the filioque John 4 verse 14 but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst, the water that I shall give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life. John 7 He who believes in me, as the scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart shall flow rivers of living water.’ ” 39 Now this he said about the Spirit, which those who believed in him were to receive, for as yet the Spirit had not been given, because Jesus was not yet glorified. Rev 22 verse 1 Then he showed me the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the lamb

Sounds like a delicious meal

Why Christianianity paints all people of their bible as white Europeans? Racist theology. Johanna Comma debate 1John 5:7-8 admitted insertion by church fathers.

Filioque was added to the Nicene Creed to emphasize the Holy Spirit proceeds from both the Father and the Son, addressing theological disputes.

Congratulations. Beautifully explained. Continue this ministry. Fr George Madathiparampil

All because of the lunacy of insisting that their particularly religious leader was the 'son' of their god, a preposterous idea, rightly scoffed at in other religions. But where there's a will... Along with this they have to claim that the virgin birth of Jesus is unique when it blatantly is not ie virgin births were retrofitted to all mythological heroes of any significance, and to revered kings, philosophers, city founders, etc. It makes a mockery of any semblance of dignity and honesty, that endless skullduggery and apologeti crap, were indulged in, due to the desperate clamour for something to make Christianity stand out as unique. You can't always have what you want. In the intervening 2,000 years, the true scale of time and distance in the universe has become apparent, and the utterly preposterous nature not just of Jesus as the son of a deity, but of the deity itself, have become apparent. A deity that presided over a small flat terrain within the Fertile Crescent, whose inhabitants travelled by manly footwear (leather sandals or bare feet) only short distances and had no conception of the geography of the globe such as the existence of the Americas and Australasia and Siberia etc. Now that god presides over trillions of galaxies, and ridiculously has only one place where life matters to him, having a curious interest in squabbling bipeds and what they do with their genitals or their hooved animals or their mismatching clothing fabrics, and not even having the wit to bestow on them a germ theory or a bit of physics or cosmology. What an utter joke.

What’s stopping the Church of the East and the West to dialogues nowadays ? Why Orthodox doesn’t believe that the Holy Spirit proceed to the Father and of the Son ? Have a debate or Councils, Why stayed in the past ?why not deal our difference now so we can all unite? All the leaders of the church needs is Love and humility towards one another and do the will of God to be United in One Faith, One Baptism, One Lord, One Body 🙏🙏🙏

Perfect explanation !!! Besides, if you read this three versions of the gospel of John: 15:26 (New King James Version (NKJV), New American Catholic Bible (NACB) and The Orthodox Study Bible (TOSB): ¨But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me¨ (NKJV) ¨When the Advocate comes whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth that proceeds from the Father, he will testify of Me¨. (NACB) ¨But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me¨.(TOSB) Our Lord message is very clear (He (Jesus) will send the Spirit that comes from the Father, (but clearly have to be the Son whom send It)), then being Jesus God, and having told that He will send the Spirit of Truth, then It will come from the Father and the Son. I rest my case. 🙏🙏🙏

No more than 8 angels can dance on the head of a pin!!! I'll die on this hill!😂

2:37: _"to combat this error"_ neutral narrative? Don't think so.

Yes the entire creed stuff was created in order to step up conflicts within Christianity.

Excellent video. This an important topic and one can see why western theology insisted on the Filioque: everything seem to hinge on the idea that the Holy Trinity must share the same essence among the Persons if we want our Christology to be coherent. If one doesn't agree then one needs to embrace some form of apophaticism with regard to the knowability or understanding of the essence of God, which could be problematic if you recognize at the same time Christ as the second person of the Trinity. This is a problem inside the Eastern tradition, I think. St. Augustin's efforts are, from a hermeneutical point of view, fully understandable.

Very well presented. Thanks. GB

Please look at a video called The Trinity Model Key Errors to understand why most people struggle with the Trinity Model. It's an interesting new perspective on the Trinity Doctrine

Edifying clarity, thank you.

😁👋🏻👍

The addition of the suffix "que" was a common Latin device meaning "and", for example, "terra marique" meaning "by land and sea", rather than "terra et mari". There's nothing special about "filioque" as it just means "and the son", as an alternative to "et filio".

The "-que" gets its own syllable, pronounced "kway".

GREAT video! And no need to apologize for pronunciation. Thanks!

Surely the Church cannot and will not deny the doctrine of co substantial existence inherent in the Trinity. If the East accepts this, then let them drop their heresy and unite with Rome. Why have they not done this? Maybe Bergoglio has complicated this by blessing perverted human sexuality. Pray for the man, that he will convert to the faith of our fathers. Poor, poor Pope Francis and all who follow his apostate ideas.

Was the Philly oak a tree. Must have phd

People weak of Him memorize creeds😮

Define “procession” please. Procession from where to where?

The only information I find on languages in the lord of Arrata story is that they all be made to speak with one language to address Enlil. I dont find the story saying their languages were confused to thwart any building efforts. Do you have a source? Or are you referring the part where it seems to say Enki did the multiple language thing?

A LOT OF THINGS WERE ADED

Amen! Good video! May we all work to reunify our churches!

So we got pagans determining what's stated or implied in the Jews bible...thus KJ and creed is a corruption of the TANNAK!

John 20 21Then Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you! [John 14:27] As the Father has sent me, I also send you.” 22When he had said this, he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit.

Too often in here is the Nicene Church referred to as the Roman Catholic Church. It was prior to the great Schism, and other than the Filioque heresy that would begin to rear its head in the 850s the West was the same as the East in doctrine. These early Nicene Germans had more in common with the present day Orthodox Church and bore that faith. The papal Church which would definitely swallow up the Germanic lands later is something else. Not a minor detail.

No mention of the Council of Florence/Ferrara where the Eastern bishops agreed to the Filioque.

There was no papacy in the early days.

This short video shows just how divided the church was over theological issues. Unfortunately, by insisting on anachronistic understanding of orthodoxy, it gives a false impression .

nice video. well done.

How does the Holy Spirit proceed from the Father and the Son (Filioque) and at the same time with Mary incarnates Jesus? It almost seems like instead of a Holy Trinity with the Filioque you end up with 2.5.

The ex-communication happened because the Bishop of Constantinople wanted the seat of primacy to move to Constantinople, because the capital of the Roman Empire had moved to Constantinople. When that was refused, the argument became that all bishops were equal and none were first among equals. The danger to this is a disintegration of the unity of the church and individual bishops reigning over separate churches. This makes them more vulnerable to nationalization or forming loyalty to secular nations, which ironically was why the west didn’t want to move the chair of Peter to Constantinople. The movement of national capitals or other secular developments should not influence the church.

Satan stopped prosecution of Christians when the Gospel lost its power due to false teachers twisting the Truth as foretold by Jesus and Paul Mat.7:15, Act.20:29 "I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock." "Christianity" from being "The Way of Life" became state religion, but without the Truth, the power and God's presence. Any "insubordination" was faced with bloody prosecution. In such "state of affair" any so called "Creed" is a farce and only serves as justification of prosecution of truth seekers. Jesus made is very clear that the "time of worshiping Father in any form of religion was ending with His death. And the "worship in Spirit and in Truth" is the only acceptable way of serving God. John 4:21-24. Consequently both Christianity and Judaism as a religion are abominations: as Christianity didn't understand the Messiah, and Judaism rejected Him.

Correction there was no Spain on those days.. details matter..😊 But congratulations Nice video

Pronounced "filly-oh-quay," not "filly - oke."

The official position of the Catholic Church to this day is that the "Filioque" is "optional". The Orthodox position is that nothing in the Symbol of Faith-the Creed-should be optional. Orthodoxy believes that the Filioque denigrates the personhood of the Holy Spirit, it that it indicates the Father and Son share something unique, not shared by the person of the Holy Spirit. It was added unilaterally by the Roman Church, without any consent or discussion with the Eastern Orthodox, which sort of destroys the whole idea of consensus or conciliarity.

Fili-OH-*kway* is the pronunciation, fyi.

To answer the question which forms the title of this video: ---> To fix the bad and incomplete statement made by the "Eastern Orthodox" churches which obviously had not purged the Arianism from their members/clergy. Many E.O. people are very weak on scripture knowledge and comprehension, preferring instead to watch E.O. priests & bishops do their ceremonies and rituals and "traditions" instead of reading and studying the actual words of Holy Writ. The Filioque is correct. BTW - I am NOT an R.C. member, but it seems to me that the R.C. theologians actually read John chapters 14 and 15 but the E.O. guys did not. I hope that everyone reading the comments and that watched the video will sit down right now and read the Gospel of John chapter 14 and chapter 15 and see what scripture says instead of believing the mystical guys of the E.O. group. The R.C. and the Protestants are much more Trinitarian than the E.O. churches. I am sure that many E.O. priests & bishops are still Arians - not really believing that Jesus Christ is fully God and man. They have not read and believed John chapter 14. Turn to Johnn chapter 15 and read verse 26! The Lord Jesus Christ plainly says that HE will send "The Comforter" ((that is The Holy Spirit -not a heavy fluffy blanket)) to the believers. He was speaking to his Disciples just before he was arrested. P.S. --> If you do not have a Holy Bible to read then you can read it for free at www dot justbible dot com God-breathed scripture is always better than human guesses.

Thank you for your excellent work

Frankish kings wanted to use an innovation to claim legitimacy. They even murdered Pope Leo VIII for defending the Creed without the filioque

Well done

The point is that men decided who God and Christ are. They read what was written many years earlier and applying their authority, they decided who God was and what his plan was. God appoints, man applies. Man does not appoint, man declares what God has done.
