Church history, details in which to interpret Scripture and the place of it, has been debated among major groups for centuries. Three major groups that all read and interpret scripture to a different standard are the Evangelicals, Liberals and the Neo-Orthodox. Each group holds the Scriptures sacred in their own way, but not everyone agrees to the others use. The first group was the Liberals. The Liberals were by far the most unique of these three groups because were prepared to disregard standard

MOUTH OF GOD.’” (Matt. 4:4 NASB) Neo-orthodoxy is an umbrella term used to describe religious ideas that purpose to be a third way, somewhere between conservative and liberal Christianity. Since its conception, neo-orthodoxy has evolved and changed, with several thoughts emerging from those that advocate the third way idea.

Orthodoxy, Orthopraxy, and Research Researchers face the challenge of integrating elements of orthodox Christian theology and orthopraxy into the theoretical orientation of their research. To maintain the integrity of the study, the research must exhaust ever effort to take themselves out of the research, allowing the research to speak for itself.

“For us it is not lawful to introduce any doctrine of our own choosing, neither may we choose some doctrine which someone else has introduced by his own choice.” (Peters, 1980, p. 30).

My friends came along in order to gain the experience from the church with me. We all had different experiences, but we all felt glad that we went together and to the church. When planning to go to the church, I read some articles on the proper etiquette of the church, and how to act in an Orthodox church. The rules

During the medieval period, the Catholic faith was one of the largest practiced religions, if not the largest. When one can encompass the wide range of power and influence, as the Church had done, it can eventually become difficult to maintain absolute control.
