為什麼要成為東正教徒呢?

我在教會遇到某些人,因為他們的丈夫/妻子正好是東正教徒。他們笑著對我說,我認為我也是東正教徒。但他們不是……但是為什麼要成為東正教徒?不是東正教徒他們一樣可以生活,不是嗎?還是可以賺得更多的呢?答案:是與否。如果這僅是一種習慣,或者是傳統西方基督教國家文化的一部分,沒有必要成為東正教信徒。如果這是一個信仰體系,接受一些原則像神的存在,為我們而死,需要祈禱,我們是罪人,這不需要成為東正教徒。
但是,如果你想愛的更深切,那麼你必須成為東正教徒。成為愛的共同體的成員,不是建構在人類協議或假想社會科學,但更深切的。約翰一書3:14我們因為愛弟兄,就曉得是已經出死入生了。沒有愛的,仍住在死中。約翰福音5:24我實實在在地告訴你們,那聽我話,又信差我來者的,就有永生;不至於定罪,是已經出死入生了。
你需要成為東正教徒來達到完美愛。只要有死亡存在及對死亡的畏懼,完美的愛是不可能存在。羅馬書8:38-39因為我深信無論是死,是生,是天使,是掌權的,是有能的,是現在的事,是將來的事,是高處的,是低處的,是別的受造之物,都不能叫我們與上帝的愛隔絕(這是為我們,也是在我們彼此之間);這愛是在我們的主基督耶穌裡的。
神是愛,賜予我們有能力去愛並從中得到喜樂。
約翰福音10:10 … ..我來了,是要叫羊得生命,並且得的更豐盛。約翰福音17:13現在我往你那裡去,我還在世上說這話,是叫他們心裡充滿我的喜樂。
我們無法獨自認識上帝,唯有在愛的共同體的成員,這被稱為教會,而不是俱樂部,不是公會,沒有政治或經濟的黨派。教會是上帝成為人類的生命體,讓愛完美。
上帝以共存存在,賜予我們這種方式,以共存作為存在,我們來到世上不僅是因為我們是父母愛產物,而是我們活著是被上帝和人們所愛。

Why to become orthodox?
I met people who come to church because their husband/wife happened to be Orthodox. They say smiling I will consider to be Orthodox. But they do not … But why to become Orthodox? They can live without this, correct? Is it something more that they can earn? Yes and no.
There is no need to be orthodox if this is just for a habit or to be part of a national culture of traditional western Christians. There is no need to be Orthodox, if this is a belief system, like to accept some principles like god exists, died for us, demands prayers, we are sinners.
But if you want to love more, then you must become Orthodox. To be member of a loving community, which is based not on human agreements or social science assumptions, but to something more. 1John 3:14 我們因為愛弟兄, 就曉得是已經出死入生了。 沒有愛心的, 仍住在死中。 John 5:24 我實實在在地告訴你們, 那聽我話、 又信差我來者的, 就有永生; 不至於定罪, 是已經出死入生了。
You need to become orthodox to love perfectly. Perfect love cannot exists as long as there is death, and the fear of death.Rom. 8:38 因為我深信無論是死, 是生, 是天使, 是掌權的, 是有能的, 是現在的事, 是將來的事,
Rom. 8:39 是高處的, 是低處的, 是別的受造之物, 都不能叫我們與上帝的愛隔絕 (THIS IS FOR US ALSO, BETWEEN US ALSO); 這愛是在我們的主基督耶穌裏的。
God is love , and grands us the ability to love and have the joy for this.
John 10:10 ….. 我來了, 是要叫羊 *得生命, 並且得的更豐盛。 John 17:13 現在我往你那裏去, 我還在世上說這話, 是叫他們心裏充滿我的喜樂。
We cannot know god individually, but only as members of this loving community, called church, -not club, not association, not political or economical party. Church is the living body of god who become human , to make the love perfect.
God who exists as coexistence, and grands us this way, to exist as coexistence, not because we came to this like as a product of love of our parents, but we live because we are loved by god and the others.
