The Confession of Dositheus
The Synod of Jerusalem
What it is
A synodal confession rejecting Lucaris point by point and defining Orthodox teaching on scripture, the sacraments, and the church against Calvinism.
Why it lasted
The most authoritative Orthodox confessional document of the modern era, and the settled answer to the Reformation from the Greek church.
Where to read it
