    Christ our True God - Begotten of the Father Before All Ages

    @BobRyan To be clear, the Nicene Creed says that our Jesus Christ our Lord, God and Savior was Begotten of the Father before all ages. In my previous post I was concerned, and still am concerned, because you appear to possibly be denying “before all ages.” And the scripture backing that is...

    Excerpt from dramatic film about Mor Severus and Mor Philoxenus

    it’s interesting how what Saints Severus and Philoxenus say has, through the adoption of Theopaschitism, become prevalent among the Eastern Orthodox, which explains why the tense relations depicted here between Eastern Orthodox and Oriental Orthodox are no longer the case where it matters most...

    Is the hymn "I Gave My Life For Thee" inaccurate?

    The hymn I Gave My Life For Thee has the following verse (emphasis added): My Father's house of light, My glory-circled throne I left for earthly night, For wanderings sad and lone It appears to present the speaker, Jesus, as having a "glory-circled throne" that He left when He came to this...

    On The Proper Names Of The Trinity

    In response to a member who erroneously suggested Jesus Christ was the name of the Trinity, I replied with the following Triadological and Christological treatise: YHWH is God, Father, Son and Holy Ghost. The names of the Son are the Only-Begotten, Firstborn of All Creation (although He is...

    Christology: A Study Of The Book Of John(an Ovrview)

    One of the scriptures that have guided my approach to the word of God over the years is the one found in 2 Timothy2:15, where Paul enjoined his young disciple, and by extension believers today to "study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing...

    I reject council of Ephesus

    Hello everyone. I am part of the Greek Orthodox church. I'm pretty familiar about church history and Theology. I know that the Roman Catholics, Oriental Orthodox and Eastern Orthodox churches believe that ecumenical councils are dogma. And I accept all the Eastern Orthodox ecumenical councils...

    Hypostasis of the Son

    God is 3 hypostases. Recently I was thinking of Chalcedon's formula: Christ has 2 physes in one hypostasis. This means that hypostasis of the Son became one with the human hypostasis. It follows that the hypostasis of the Son changed at the incarnation. This contradicts the dogma of immutability...

    Christological Question

    Could Christ sin by His human nature and by His human will? If not, is it because Christ is a Divine Uncreated Person and that only created persons could sin? Please support your answers with Ecumenical Councils and Church Fathers.

    Our Lord's Atonement

    A common statement about the Atonement of our Lord that needs a proper response: Not a few folks react wrongly when limited atonement is mentioned, failing to see their own versions of limited atonement. Those who deny the Reformers view what Scripture teaches about limited atonement have a...

    Is the Son of God eternal as Trinitarians claim or not eternal as Apostolics claim?

    “1 These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: ….. 5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.” (John 17:1 and 5...

    Oneness Pentecostals claim that Jesus is God the Father!

    ‘Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.’ (2nd John 3). The text here reads; ‘God the Father.’ I point this out because certain Oneness folk have at times suggested that the term ‘God the Father’ is an...

    Do Apostolics (Oneness Pentecostals) deny the Son of God?

    “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning. I have many things to say and to judge of you: but...

    Abp. Petrosian on Armenian Christology

    Hello! Dzheremi had recommended a month or so ago that I should ask about the following issue in this section, and especially look for an Armenian's comment about it. After thinking about it, I think his advice was good and decided to post this. A leading Armenian Archbishop, Petrosian, wrote a...
