This would be incorrect. <br /><br />Again I may be wrong, but many people do confuse the different Churches and Rites. <br /><br />Byzantine is it's own Church, in union with Rome. <br /><br />Those who use the Byzantine liturgies and fall under its jurisdiction are Byzantine, but would be considered to be the different RITES or expressions of that Church. <br /><br />I could be wrong (I often am, in fact) but it is not the other way around, as you seem to have it.<br /><br />So I guess I am a bit confused and hope an expert friend of mine will happen along and provide correct definitions for us both...even though this post has NOTHING to do with this combox topic.<br /><br />Yes, I am a literalist, too.Adorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853244433854822731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15170815.post-84322828115290746422010-05-26T23:20:15.724-05:002010-05-26T23:20:15.724-05:00Susan ~ Thank you
Nan ~ I love you literalists. Y...Susan ~ Thank you<br /><br />Nan ~ I love you literalists. You keep me informed. <br /><br /> The Byzantine Church is its own Church and within it are few different Rites within that Suri Iuris. Not all are the same even under the Byzantine heading (Suri Iuris) <br /><br />The Byzantine parish in my area is specifically Ruthenian in their Rite, but they are part of the Byzantine Church. I cannot recall at this moment the other Rites (or Form as is the popular term developing in our particular age of theological development). It is akin, as I understand it, as a complimentary form of the liturgy within one of the recognized Churches under Rome, in the same way that the Ordinary and Extraordinary Form are equal and complimentary under the Latin Church, of which you and I are both a part. <br /><br />I am still working on learning the language that accurately portrays and expresses both the dignity and the lack of confusion of the various Churches and Rites under Rome. I am completely open to your probably more proper definitions especially with regard to the Eastern Church and know I have among my followers many that can enter this discussion...and pray that they will. <br /><br />Thank you.Adorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853244433854822731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15170815.post-63157081371651130832010-05-26T22:37:47.349-05:002010-05-26T22:37:47.349-05:00The Ruthenian Church uses the Byzantine Rite; ther...The Ruthenian Church uses the Byzantine Rite; there's no such thing as a Ruthenian Rite. The Ukrainian Catholic Church, Greek Orthodox and Russian Orthodox also use the Byzantine Rite. <br /><br />I think you mean liturgies in their different forms; Byzantine Rite Churches refer to the Divine Liturgy, not Mass. Also, Roman Rite.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15634235894433276073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15170815.post-19944332695137768092010-05-25T15:05:18.605-05:002010-05-25T15:05:18.605-05:00What a beautiful post.
