Which church is closest to greek orthodox beliefs?

There is no Greek Orthodox church anywhere around my home. What church would be the closest to my Greek Orthodox beliefs?

Hi,

I would think that any Eastern Orthodox Church would hold similar beliefs. If you had an old church, you could ask someone there.

it doesn't matter if its greek or not.... orthodox is orthodox... thats what the preist at my orthodoz church told me anyways...

The Catholic Church is pretty close.

well islam is the right religion ignore churches

If there is no Eastern Orthodox near you, the next closest would be the Eastern Catholics, then the Latin Catholics, then it's a toss up into either the Anglicans or the Lutherans

I hate to tell you this but Catholic and Orthodox are not at all close. . . Lutherin would be closer but I suggest checking out several different churches and making your own mind up.

To rnealw:

Well, the reason why I said this is because they both (Catholic and Orthodox) still believe in the real presence. Lutherans do not. This becomes an important point of contention for those who do. From a theological standpoint, it is as I stated earlier, although the service itself might differ. Even the Anglicans (Episcopalians) believe in the real presence that is why I put Lutherans lowest on the list in relation to Greek orthodox.

1. Greek Orthodox
2. Eastern Orthodox
3. Eastern Rite Catholics
4. Latin rite Catholics
5. Anglican/Episcopalian
6. Lutheran
...and then it just becomes less and less like Greek Orthodox in both the service itself and theologically

Catholic chrcuh is close. Then maybe epispocalin too because it is like catholicism.

Over the years I attended a Catholic service and A Lutheran church and a greek orthodix. . . The Cathlic And Orthodox are branches off the same church at opposite ends of the stick while lutheran is a direct break off of the Catholic church. Having attended all three I promice I speak from experiance.

Orthodoxy is orthodoxy, theologically speaking. Catholicism, Lutheranism, et al., have diverged from the teachings of the one true faith (ortho: right, true doxy: faith, belief). Find any Eastern Orthodox church and you will have found the closest to Greek Orthodox.
