Orthodox Christianity is in actual fact, divided into 2 major denominations. Eastern Orthodox being one, & Oriental Orthodox being the second one.
Like the Catholic Church, the Orthodox believe in Apostolic Succession.
No, it is part of The Orthodox Church (Christianity), and it is not Jewish. In fact, there is no such thing as a Jewish church.
Yes, in fact in most monasteries this is the practice.
Yes. In fact, if a Roman Catholic is unable to partake of the Eucharist in a Roman Catholic church, they may do so in an Orthodox one. The RCC considers Orthodox sacraments valid (including their ordinations to the priesthood).
Saturday is the Sabbath in Judaism. Orthodox (and some non-orthodox) Jews will not work. Many non-Orthodox Jews will work, but still remember the Sabbath day in their own ways. (And yes, there are some Orthodox Jews that work on Saturdays, but they do not advertise this fact).
Russian orthodox. Greek orthodox. Coptic orthodox. Antiochia orthodox. Eastern orthodox. Ethiopian orthodox.
No, they are in no way shape or form satanics. In fact Gene Simmons is an extremely religious Orthodox Jew.
If you are married then the Orthodox Church is not against it. In fact during weddings the phrase "be fruitful" is said more then once. But if you are not doing this within the confines of marriage, then the answer to this is no, as this is unbiblical and is considered adultery.
They are called Eastern Orthodox Christians or just Orthodox Christians.
A ‘Greek Orthodox’ Christian is a Christian who comes under the Orthodox Church of Greece. In the rest of the world, he or she would be known as an Orthodox Christian. The name "greek orthodox" should not be used to describe Orthodox Christians in other countries outside of Greece. There is no nationality in the Orthodox Church. It is open to people of all backgrounds, races and cultures. Orthodox Christians in Japan are Japanese Orthodox, Orthodox Christians in Russia are Russian Orthodox, Orthodox Christians in America are American Orthodox, etc.
Orthodox (ορθοδόξος) in Greek means correct both in worship and belief. It is derived from the combination of όρθος/orthos (correct, straight, without deviation) and δόξα/doxa (glory or worship) or δοκείν/dokein (to teach). In fact, the names of the Orthodox Church in Bulgarian, Russian, Serbian, etc. reflects and reinforces more the 'doxa' etymology. Thus orthodox in this context should be understood more as 'correct in worship' and the claim 'correct in belief' should be regarded as implicit.
Absolutely! You will never attend a Russian Orthodox service, hear a Russian Orthodox prayer, or talk theology with a Russian Orthodox Christian without Christ. His resurrection is the very basis of everything we Orthodox Christians do.
