沿革

希臘正教的起源可以追溯到公元一世紀的巴爾幹中東地區教會[7][8][9][10][11][12][13],它保留了許多古代教會的傳統。[13]希臘正教以及普世正教會不像天主教一樣以單一主教管轄,如教宗,而是由多個自主教會組成一個群集。並由君士坦丁堡普世牧首為平等的精神領袖。

希臘正教重視與其他東正教教會(如俄羅斯東正教)的團結與交流。東正教有著共同的教義和崇拜儀式,他們認為自己不是一個個獨立的教會,而是作為同一個教會的一小部份。希臘正教最著名的是其保有豐富意象的傳統(參見:拜占庭藝術)、對上帝聖母的崇拜、以及使用可以追溯到公元四世紀,由聖約翰創立的富有東正教特色的事奉聖禮

現今有部分希臘東正教徒,其祖先歷史可以追溯到拜占庭和奧斯曼時期,他們的祖先使用阿拉伯語希臘語,生活在土耳其南部、以色列巴勒斯坦伊拉克敘利亞黎巴嫩約旦埃及。他們使用阿拉伯語且保持了拜占庭的希臘文化傳統。[14][15][16]君士坦丁堡在基督教創立以來的前八個世紀,其在羅馬帝國的影響範圍內是基督教最重要的智慧,文化和社會發展與傳承中心[16][17][18][19],而今日希臘正教的大多數儀式、傳統和做法至今仍然在君士坦丁堡教會運作。於公元10世紀,希臘正教使得斯拉夫民族開始發展文明以及與其他歐洲國家接觸,並發展出了斯拉夫正教會禮儀。[20][21] [22][22][23][23][24]

(原始内容存档于2020-10-10). Catholicism holds that if a Church claims to be Christian, then it must be able to show that its leaders-its bishops and its presbyters (or priests)- are successors of the apostles. That is why the Catholic Church accepts Eastern Orthodox ordinations and sacraments as valid, even though Eastern Orthodoxy is not in full communion with Rome.

This connection is apparent through the historical succession of bishops of churches in a particular geographic locale and by fidelity to the teachings of the apostles (cf.
