There is a big difference between these two ways of reading the fathers: 1) “Here is what Augustine is saying” 2) “Here are some scholastic distinctions I can use to show you how I can affirm what Augustine says.” Second is not completely invalid, but the first method is more sure

I’ve been thinking about this…It seems to me the phenomena is something like a disclosure to vocation such that “salvation” is relevant, which is not primarily metaphysical conceptually and paradigmatically. 🤔

Every theologian talks about the relationship between God and the world, and it’s never a naive thing. What’s relational and internal to the very life of God will be seen in the world because God is energetic gift.

Palamas’s position is more subtle than the usual caricatures allow. He is not saying that God is divided into essence and energies, as though the energies were a second layer of deity beneath the essence.

Good formation begins where technology recedes. A book is good; a book by your pen is better. But to hold your child in love is a life well lived.

Replying to @ThoughtfulSaint

Let me get this straight. The video begins with a clip to poison the well against me. None of the arguments I present in the opening are explained to the audience at all. You slander about me by stating that my position is that the Hurlbut affidavits are 100% true. I know that you know that is not my position - so it is literally you maliciously lying about me to your audience. You lie and say that all my information was from Mormonism Unvailed when you know that I referenced tons of other sources. You cut between two second sound-bites - in several cases you edit out the context in a way that is outright deceptive. You dont mention a single response that I gave to Luke's arguments or include any exchange of more than a couple seconds between me and Luke.

If you’ve never done this type of research and live in a bookless desert, then you must, must, I tell-yas (!), break free from the mental prison. Go, now: find a research library before the governments of the world take them away.

Nearly 400,000 philosophical and theological volumes in these stacks. Even the slightest curiosity I’ve had this past week, I’ve been able to indulge. Really hard to overstate how awesome it is to work out of such a vast library

If you put water from the depths of the ocean in a petri dish it is a creature. You put the same mass of water from a fog in Petri dish, for comparison, and it will have as much, if not more, creaturliness. The question is: is the observer trained for such hermeneutics or not?

PREVIEW OF ANGEL-ORIENTED-ONTOLOGY As messengers of God, the angels (ἄγγελοι) have, since Philo and Origen of Alexandria, been classically regarded as ontological intermediaries, who, by aiding in the subsequent 'Days' of creation, uphold the deep structure of being. 🧵
