What is meant by “Orthodox?”
Orthodox means right or correct. All religious groups would claim to be right. Who would respect any person who knowingly did wrong and encouraged others to do wrong also. Orthodox or orthodoxy is frequently used to refer to established or traditional beliefs and practice. In some situations it is part of a name, ie Eastern Orthodox. Some use the word to indicate those who are more traditional than themselves. Tradition does not necessarily meant right, nor does it mean it is wrong. Right or wrong is not determined by the age of a practice, but by the word of Jesus.
