What Makes Women in Love Behave So Foolishly and Unreasonable At Times?
I can never understand what makes women in love behave so foolishly and act unreasonable, especially those women who enable men to cheat on their wives.

If someone sees Christ as the only point of contact, then any other form of mediation feels unnecessary or even wrong. If someone sees the Church as a single living body that includes both the living and the departed, then asking for intercession feels natural.

So does the Liturgy and the Eucharist exist only among Catholics and Orthodox? Not only! 😊 The Liturgy and the Eucharist are central in Orthodoxy and Catholicism, but forms of celebrating the Lord’s Supper also exist in other branches of Christianity — only the way they are understood and practiced differs. ✝️ Where are the Liturgy and the Eucharist found? Christian branch: Orthodox — complete Liturgy with real Eucharist (Body and Blood). Catholic — complete Liturgy with sacramental transubstantiation.

During the Liturgy, the bread and wine are consecrated and become, in the Orthodox and Catholic faith, the Body and Blood of Christ — not symbolically, but really, mystically. What does the Eucharist signify? It is the bloodless sacrifice of Christ, repeated liturgically but unique in essence. It is the nourishment of the soul, which unites us with Christ and with the other members of the Church — His mystical Body. It is the source and summit of spiritual life: all the other Mysteries lead toward the Eucharist.

We are open toward salvation. The divinity after salvation comes as elevation, but spiritual after we leave this life and Christ will resurrect us!

The expression ‘but opened toward deification.’ how is it transposed into the right to represent the sacred and the divinity with icon !?📜

The origin and theological justification is based on the idea that God became incarnate in Christ, therefore He can be represented visually. Saint Paul says in Colossians 1:15 that Christ is ‘the image of the invisible God.’ In the Old Testament, God Himself commands the making of sacred images, such as the cherubim on the Ark of the Covenant (Exodus 25:18).

For example, in Orthodox icons the Mother of God is shown with a solemn, elongated face and three symbolic stars representing her virginity before, during, and after the birth of Christ. In Western paintings she may appear with sensual features and loose hair, reflecting a different artistic and theological approach.
