If ...I didn't like his use of the NT passages. If we are honest with the way the passages are being used, we can put anything in the place of the words "Old Calendar", even the word "Orthodox." In other words, one might use the same passages against you and I in saying that "the Apostle Paul did not say 'Without the Orthodox Church, it is impossible to be saved.'” We both know that such an argument would hold no water and it doesn't do so here either.
