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.
