Discover True Faith

The inevitability of death and human imperfection lead many to ponder eternity and seek connection with the Creator of the universe.

Religion’s purpose is to bridge the gap between humanity and God. True religion, therefore, must be divinely revealed — not invented by humans. Among religious traditions, the original teachings hold priority over later interpretations.

Orthodox Christianity is exactly such a religion. Jesus Christ created His only Church, which we represent. Other Christian communities, such as Catholicism and Protestantism, have diverged from early Christian practices over time.

The largest Orthodox Christian online resource is “Azbyka.ru” (ABC of Faith), launched in 2005. This portal serves as:

  • A guide to Orthodox teachings,

  • A multilingual platform (with an English-language section),

  • A non-commercial project supported by believers worldwide.

  • We regard our project as pan-Orthodox, interethnic, and supra-national (Galatians 3:28).

Key details:

  1. Accessibility: While primarily in Russian, English-speaking users can utilize translation tools or explore the dedicated English section.

  2. Independence: We are not an official entity of any Local Orthodox Church but collaborate with faithful across jurisdictions.

  3. Mission: All content is freely available, with no advertisements or commercial incentives.

We welcome questions about Orthodox Christianity or the portal. Feel free to reach out!

«There Is No Salvation Without Christ»

"Jesus Christ… is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other…" (Acts 4:11–12)
