Christology and council reception
Eastern Orthodox churches receive the seven ecumenical councils, confessing one and the same Son in two complete natures. The 1990 joint commission affirmed a common confession while distinguishing reception; its recommendations do not themselves restore communion.
Scripture
- John 1:14; Hebrews 2:14-18 — Read the literary context. Later ecclesial reception is supplied by the named source, not established by the passage alone.
