Yes
NOt only to say yes that we are christians, We are the Mother of all Christians
We are the purest held Christians to this day. Welcome and learn about the Full truth of Christ through Orthodoxy. This is why we are called Orthodox, because we kept our religion pure unaltered with no dogmas or heresies that the others have contributed to themselves. We also never added as the Roman church did or subtracted as the many divided Protestant denominations.
We did not accept the pope as a supremacy, because the only leader of the Orthodox church is Jesus Christ himself. No bishop or Archibishop or Patriarche is the same as a pope. All they get is a higher level of respect to preserve the faith and get the info out to the people. Each Patriarch represents their country, since there are other orthodox Christians other than Greeks, but they still hold no power over the people as the Pope's views are by the Catholic people. In those days the new Roman Catholics looked at the Pope like a God and that was a sin in our eyes. We only look at Jesus that way.

The Orthodox Church is not a denomination. The Orthodox Church is the original Christian church, founded by Jesus Christ and His apostles. "Denominations" are the Christian groups which trace their histories back to splitting off from the Orthodox faith.
Orthodox Christianity (like Roman Catholicism) is the oldest Christian faith and can be traced back to the Apostles and Jesus Christ.
