Old Orthodox Christianity is not a religion, an institution or an organization. It is, to the contrary, the way of life initiated by Jesus Christ and a living organism comprised of those who believe in Him.
The CHURCH IS PEOPLE - GOD's PEOPLE - WHO
gather together in His name, thereby calling themselves Christian;
share a common faith and hope based on the love of God;
affirm the truth, or orthodoxy, of their faith, belief and experience; and
proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ to all.
An orthdox Christian, then, is one who fully lives and proclaims God's Truth as it has been revealed by Jesus Christ and experienced everywhere and at all times by His People, the Church.
