archevêque Paul de Finlande

This article presents the French translation of *The Faith We Confess*, a work by Archbishop Paul, Primate of the Orthodox Church of Finland. It is a doctrinal and pastoral introduction to Orthodoxy, structured in three parts devoted to faith, the Eucharist, and prayer. The author sets out the ecclesiological foundations of the Orthodox Church — its apostolic continuity, its doctrinal sources (Scripture and Tradition), its theology of salvation and the communion of saints — before addressing liturgical and sacramental life, particularly regular participation in the Eucharist. The third part deals with personal prayer, especially the Jesus Prayer. The work makes a twofold contribution: offering non-Orthodox readers a coherent presentation of the Orthodox faith as lived from within, and inviting the faithful themselves to deepen their understanding of the liturgical and spiritual practices of their Church.
