On Orthodox usage of biblical terms for the reception of salvation.  a"How can Christians claim that the death of Jesus Christ on the cross is a victory? Yet the doctrine of salvation affirms precisely that: in his death and his resurrection, Christ is victorious over the power of sin and death. The articulation of this tenet of faith has taken different shapes throughout the church's life and history. Eastern Orthodoxy has made its own contributions to the belief in salvation through Christ, but its expressions sometimes sound unfamiliar to Western branches of the church. Here James Payton, a Western Christian with a sympathetic ear for Eastern Orthodoxy, explores the Orthodox doctrine of salvation. Payton helps Christians of all traditions listen to Orthodox brothers and sisters so that together we might rejoice, 'Where, O death, is your victory?'"--Publisher statement.20aOrthodox Eastern ChurchxDoctrines.27aOrthodox Eastern Church..2fast0(OCoLC)fst00510210 0aSalvationxChristianityxHistory of doctrines. 0aSalvationxOrthodox Eastern Church. 7aSalvationxChristianityxHistory of doctrines..2fast0(OCoLC)fst01104427 7aTheology, Doctrinal..2fast0(OCoLC)fst01149617
