True Christian Confirmation

Above: Presbyter King gives insight on how to learn true Christian growth.


Confirmation means "saying yes". In confirmation God's promise to the individual made at baptism is confirmed: God confirms his promise to be with the baptised always and he or she receives the blessing and a special greeting from the church in the form of a Bible verse that is thought of as a kind of life companion. Confirmation is not a sacrament in the Orthodox Antiochene Church but a rite that also marks the passage from childhood into growing up. We confirm our faith throughout our life.
