Does Eastern Orthodoxy Have the "Fullness of the Faith?"

Video Description

In this video I respond to Jonathan Pageau's claims that Eastern Orthodoxy has the fullness of the faith. I show that this is not the historic Orthodox view, nor the historic Roman Catholic view, and then suggest reasons why the Protestant approach to discerning the one true church is superior.
