In the New Testament we find the Greek word “dogma” (δογμα) used to refer to the apostles’ decree, produced in the apostles’ council, guided by the Holy Spirit (Acts 16:4). Such dogmas were intended to help the faithful walk in the ways of salvation that the Church maintains throughout history without deviation. In the Orthodox Church, dogma is founded on the Holy Bible and the holy apostolic tradition. Its cornerstone is Christ, who united the Jews (Old Testament) with the gentiles. And it reveals the work of the Holy Trinity for the salvation of humanity; how to walk in the Lord and grow in sacred knowledge, awaiting the coming of the Lord on the last day.
