A Doctor Exposes GOC America (Archbishop Gregory of Colorado)

Описание: Clarifications

1. The individual who was rebaptized by Archbishop Gregory did not object to the rebaptism.
2. The incident involving the Portaitissa icon concerns a prophecy stating that, at the end of the world, when the icon disappears from its monastery, the monks are to depart. When someone asked Archbishop Gregory where the icon would go, he suggested that it might come to his own skete. Why does he think himself so important?
3. Archbishop Gregory continues to maintain the erroneous view that the doctrine of the Toll-Houses has Gnostic influences. This so-called Gnostic Dependency hypothesis was thoroughly refuted in "The Departure of the Soul According to the Teaching of the Orthodox Church", published by Saint Anthony’s Greek Orthodox Monastery. Archbishop Gregory possesses this book and therefore should be aware that promoting this claim constitutes a serious theological error. This persistence reflects a broader pattern of refusing to acknowledge error when presented with authoritative correction. According to Orthodox teaching, the doctrine of the Toll-Houses was divinely revealed through theoria (spiritual vision) to the saints and is therefore a non-negotiable doctrine of the Church, having its origin in divine revelation itself.
4. I don't know how the doctor knows that Mother Mariam is an excellent translater, unless he has a thorough knowledge of the Greek from which she translates.
5. Like many clergy who profess Orthodoxy today, Archbishop Gregory appears to love only those who love him, as evidenced by his treatment of the doctor once their paths diverged. This attitude—loving only those who love you—is expressly condemned by Christ, who taught: “For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?” (Matthew 5:46).
