Four stages of development can be distinguished in the
history of the Orthodox Churches.
1. Early Christianity, which is roughly the first three
centuries through the early age of Constantine the Great,
constitutes the Apostolic and ancient period.

and Balkan communities in the fifteenth century with
the Fall of Constantinople, and ends about the year 1830,
which marks Greek and Serbian independence from the
Ottoman Empire. The last stage is the modern period.

The Byzantine Iconoclasm refers to two periods in
the history of the Byzantine Empire when the use of
religious images or icons was opposed by religious
and imperial authorities within the Eastern Church and
the temporal imperial hierarchy.
The "First Iconoclasm", as it is sometimes called,
lasted between about 726 and 787.
The "Second Iconoclasm" was between 814 and 842.
According to the traditional view, Byzantine Iconoclasm
constituted a ban on religious images
It was accompanied by widespread destruction of images.
The Western church remained firmly in support of the
use of images throughout the period,
and the whole episode widened the growing divergence
between the East and Western tradition.

A few weeks before he died,
Peter John Olivi (ca. 1248-1298)
finished his final and greatest work,
the Lectura super Apocalypsim (LSA),
commentary on the biblical Book of Revelation.
The LSA is a summary of Olivi’s eschatology,
his view of the “Last Things” as he had been developing
his understanding over his 20 year teaching career.
Other than the Bible, no book contributed more powerfully
and directly than the LSA to the seismic events that we
call “the Reformation.”
More than 200 years before Martin Luther nailed his
95 Theses to the church-house door,
Olivi had foreseen the Pope as heretic,
the theological Fall of Rome, the end of top-down religious
hierarchy, and the emergence of free and democratic,
joy-filled “Praise Churches.”
Olivi had also predicted the Jewish Holocaust and
the ultimate unification of Jews and Christians.

With respect to the providence of restoration, this period is
divided into three periods: the period of the Reformation, the
period of religious and ideological conflicts, and the period of the
maturation of politics, economy and ideology.
Period of preparation
for the Second Advent:
The 130-year period of the Reformation began in 1517, when Martin Luther
raised the banner of the Protestant Reformation in Germany, and lasted until
the wars of religion were settled by the Treaty of Westphalia in 1648.

In the Second World War, democracy, while standing upon the
formation stage victory attained in the First World War, defeated
fascism and secured victory at the growth stage.
Secured victory at the growth stage
In the Second World War, an alliance of the democratic nations of the
United States, Great Britain and France led the nations on God’s side.
Satan’s side was the alliance of the fascist nations: Germany, Japan and
Italy (p. 372).

The Shakers were founded in England in 1770 by Ann Lee.
The Shaking Quakers were said to "shake" because they
danced and spoke in tongues.
1770
Convinced (Spirit World inspired)
that sin had begun with Adam and Eve's sex
act in the Garden of Eden,
Ann Lee insisted that sexual relations were the root of all sin.
Men and women would achieve salvation only by
overcoming this fleshly desire.
Ann Lee
1736 –1784
leader of the United Society of Believers
in Christ’s Second Appearing, or Shakers.
What Really Happened in the Garden of Eden
By - Wesley A. Swift (1913–1970) was a
former Methodist minister from Southern California. /Wiki
Using only the Scriptures, I will show you that the Fall was
brought on by an unholy sexual union between Satan and Eve.
1940
First of all, we see in Gen. 2:25 that Adam and Eve
were not ashamed of their nakedness.
They obviously had the perfect bodies that God had
intended for them when they were created.
Now, notice after the Fall, in Gen. 3:7 & 10, that
Adam and Eve were suddenly ashamed of their bodies.
Why would you be ashamed of your body if all you had
done was eat a piece of fruit?
Now, back in Gen. 3:3, Eve tells Satan that neither she
nor Adam can 'touch' the 'fruit' of the 'Tree of Knowledge
of Good and Evil' because if they do, they'll die.
The word 'touch' here means 'to lay hands upon, to lie with.'
When you 'lie' with someone in this capacity,
it's obviously sexual in nature.
The words 'eat' or 'ate' when used in these passages
do not mean the literal consumption of food.
The words 'eat' or 'ate' when used in the first 15 verses
of Genesis chapter three means '(lit. or fig.) to consume,
devour (partake).‘
When you partake in something, that means you are
engaging in an activity.
And Eve certainly did partake here!
She engaged in sex with Satan (the 'serpent') who
appeared to her in human form and sexually seduced her.
William Branham USA had been hearing
voices since he was seven years old.
Finally, in May of 1946, Branham was
commissioned by an angel from God
to be the forerunner of
the Second Coming of Christ.
One of the more radical beliefs of the group
is that of Serpent Seed which states that
the first sin committed occurred when Eve engaged
in sexual activities with the Serpent
in the Garden of Eden thus
causing "the fall of man."
1946
William Branham
(1909-1965)
“What did he do? He begin making love to Eve.
And he lived with her as a husband.
And she saw it was pleasant, so she went and told her
husband; but she was already (spiritually) pregnant by Satan.
And she brought forth her first son whose name was Cain,
the son of Satan.
My comment: In June 1946 TF went to Pyong Yang to search
for the prepared Spir. groups.
Seams like that Heavenly mission "spilled over" to US.

  • 149. What Really Happened in the Garden of Eden By - Wesley A. Swift (1913–1970) was a former Methodist minister from Southern California. /Wiki Using only the Scriptures, I will show you that the Fall was brought on by an unholy sexual union between Satan and Eve. 1940
  • 150. First of all, we see in Gen. 2:25 that Adam and Eve were not ashamed of their nakedness. They obviously had the perfect bodies that God had intended for them when they were created. Now, notice after the Fall, in Gen. 3:7 & 10, that Adam and Eve were suddenly ashamed of their bodies. Why would you be ashamed of your body if all you had done was eat a piece of fruit?
  • 151. Now, back in Gen. 3:3, Eve tells Satan that neither she nor Adam can 'touch' the 'fruit' of the 'Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil' because if they do, they'll die. The word 'touch' here means 'to lay hands upon, to lie with.' When you 'lie' with someone in this capacity, it's obviously sexual in nature.
  • 152. The words 'eat' or 'ate' when used in these passages do not mean the literal consumption of food. The words 'eat' or 'ate' when used in the first 15 verses of Genesis chapter three means '(lit. or fig.) to consume, devour (partake).‘ When you partake in something, that means you are engaging in an activity. And Eve certainly did partake here! She engaged in sex with Satan (the 'serpent') who appeared to her in human form and sexually seduced her.
  • 153. William Branham USA had been hearing voices since he was seven years old. Finally, in May of 1946, Branham was commissioned by an angel from God to be the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ. One of the more radical beliefs of the group is that of Serpent Seed which states that the first sin committed occurred when Eve engaged in sexual activities with the Serpent in the Garden of Eden thus causing "the fall of man." 1946 William Branham (1909-1965)
  • 154. “What did he do? He begin making love to Eve. And he lived with her as a husband. And she saw it was pleasant, so she went and told her husband; but she was already (spiritually) pregnant by Satan. And she brought forth her first son whose name was Cain, the son of Satan. My comment: In June 1946 TF went to Pyong Yang to search for the prepared Spir. groups. Seams like that Heavenly mission "spilled over" to US.

  2. The principle as the truth has been revealed historically as follows: Original copy of the Divine Principle (May 10, 1952), Explanation of the Divine Principle (Aug. 15, 1957), Exposition of the Divine Principle (May 1, 1966) and Original Divine Principle started to be educated (Oct. 10, 2008). Exceptionally there has not been any new book published for ODP besides the lecture notes. When you see them, you realize they are the contents of the principle detailed by the ideas of the Unification thought and some of Father's words, which, accordingly, would leave some members confused in thinking the workshop seems based on lectures that explore a deeper level of the Principle.

  14. The Russian Cross is a variation of the Christian cross. The cross has three horizontal crossbeams, the top representing the plate with INRI, and the bottom, a footrest. In Russian Orthodox tradition, the lower beam is slanted, with the side to the viewer's left usually being higher. According to a recent Russian Orthodox Tradition, when Saint Andrew was preaching in southern Russia, he used a life-sized cross in this design and tilted the footrest to show that those on Christ's right would ascend to Heaven, while those on Christ's left would descend into Hell. Consequently, in the Russian Orthodox Church this cross is sometimes called the Cross of Saint Andrew. In the Greek Orthodox Church, it remains straight, as in some earlier representations.
