Excerpt from The Teaching of the Russian Church: Being Notes on Points on Which It Differs From the English Church
It has been thought convenient to add at the end a short list of the service books and authorised doctrinal statements of the Russian Church, and of translations of them into English, with a few books, accessible to English readers, on the Russian Church.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This interesting book elucidates the differences between the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC) and the Western Churches. The ROC is a branch of the Eastern Orthodox Church and is the largest and most important Orthodox Church, adhering to specific doctrines and teachings. The author compares the ROC's beliefs to the Roman Catholic Church, explaining the Russian Church's perspectives on sacraments, the Eucharist, and transubstantiation, among other key topics. The text emphasizes the differences in philosophy and perception between the ROC, which values faith and spirituality, and the more structured and materialist doctrines of the Roman Church. The author further highlights the Russian Church's focus on the experience of the divine through prayer and tradition rather than priestly authority and the importance of communal worship, prayer, and veneration of saints. This insightful book will appeal to anyone interested in comparative religion and the history and practices of the Russian Orthodox Church, providing a nuanced understanding of its beliefs and practices.
