Eclectic : deriving ideas from a broad and diverse range of Christian sources and Traditions.

Orthodoxy : correct, right or true things, from ὀρθός ‎(orthós, “correct”) + δόξα ‎(dóxa, “way, opinion”).

“No doctrine concerning the divine and saving mysteries of the faith, however trivial, may be taught without the backing of the holy Scriptures. We must not let ourselves be drawn aside by mere persuasion and cleverness of speech. Do not even give absolute belief to me, the one who tells you these things, unless you receive proof from the divine Scriptures of what I teach. For the faith that brings us salvation acquires its force, not from fallible reasonings, but from what can be proved out of the holy Scriptures.” Cyril of Jerusalem (ca. 313-386)
