TITLE SEVENTEENTH

Of relics, miracles, and veneration of saints.

The enemy of the human race has such snares that he can often lead the simple and pious faithful of Christ into error with false miracles and illusions. For this reason the Holy Synod decrees that no new miracles shall be admitted after this unless they have been properly tested and examined by the bishops.

The relics of the Saints, which were once the temple of the Holy Spirit and the living members of Christ, although the Synod declares that they are to be venerated and decently kept in the churches with great reverence: nevertheless, lest those should be forced into worship, the identity of which is either doubtful or not at all certain, the bishops should make a careful inquiry in the act of visitation and then decide what they judge to be consistent with truth and piety 2.

The Holy Synod forbids George Palamas not only to be worshiped as a saint or to be celebrated on a festival day, but also to be named in our Church henceforth under the penalties prescribed against schismatics.

The actual decree of the Synod of Zamość for those who are interested:

Therefore, St. Augustine teaches that the Holy Spirit receives His being and essence from all eternity from both, yet from the Father principally, confirming the exact same words of Florence. In fact, Florence is using Augustine WORD-FOR-WORD. Craig Truglia has written a billion articles on Augustine yet he has not been able to explain any of these. Indeed, he is a dishonest liar and knows that the communication of essence to the Spirit from both the Father and the Son refutes his beliefs, but he won't admit it. If any Eastern Orthodox says that the Holy Spirit has been communicated being and essence from all eternity from the Father and the Son, they automatically profess the Filioque. And the honest Eastern Orthodox have admitted that the Spirit has being and essence from Father alone!
