Sacraments of Western Orthodoxy

Here at the Temple Gate Beautiful, we have a several different sacraments. Including, the breaking of bread and consumption of wine, foot washing, child birthing, and the smoking of marijuana.

If you are suffering in health, a vegetarian diet full of pulses (beans) and leafy green vegetables is recommended.

If you are suffering from anxiety, as many people do, the smoking of an indica cannabis is recommended vs if you are suffering from depression, as many people do, the smoking of sativa cannabis is recommended.

Foot washing for the homeless.

Child birthing for married women who wish to be sanctified ever more so. This is a privilege, not a right. Therefore, those that cannot have children are secondary to leaders who can.

Bread and wine are consumed with those we’re closest to, and only done so to celebrate the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. I believe in transubstantiation However, unlike the current Catholic practices, we will not forsake the covenant of the blood of Jesus Christ from our church members. The promise of forgiveness of sins is for all of those who wish to put their faith in Jesus Christ, therefore, I don’t care what the Roman Catholic Catechism says, the fruit of the vine will be celebrated and consumed by all willing members at every Sunday here at Temple Gate Beautiful.

The Archangel Gabriel

In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary.

Luke 1:26-27 (NIV)

Gabriel was usually met with fear, and he had to begin his conversations with words of comfort and cheer for Daniel, Zechariah, and Mary. It is possible that Gabriel was also the angel that appeared to Joseph in Matthew 1:20, but this is not certain, since that angel is unnamed in Scripture. What we do know is that Gabriel is one of God’s good and holy angels. He has a favored position as an angel who “stands in the presence of God” (Luke 1:19), and he was selected to deliver important messages of God’s particular love and favor to chosen individuals.

The Angel Gabriel is considered the most important of all the angels in Islam. In the Quran, the angel is called Jibreel or the Holy Spirit. The Angel Jibreel’s main responsibility is to communicate the Words of Allah to His prophets.

“Say, the Holy Spirit (Jibreel) has brought the revelation from your Lord in Truth, in order to strengthen those who believe, and as a Guide and Glad Tidings to Muslims” (16:102).
