https://www.nhgazette.com/2025/02/01/kq2sr5sk St. Patrick’s Prayer (St. Patrick’s Breastplate) I arise today Through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity, Through a belief in the Threeness, Through confession of the Oneness Of the Creator of creation. I arise today Through the strength of Christ’s birth and His baptism, Through the strength of His crucifixion and His burial, […]

Buy Ambien Zolpidem Uk Well, Dave asked me to enumerate what else the Orthodox believe about the Theotokos. This list is in addition to what was mentioned previously. 1. Almost of all us believe that she was assumed into heaven – but we think the Roman Church was very wrong to label this a dogma. 2. There is a […]
Ambien Overnight Mastercard So, why do we call the Virgin Mary the Theotokos? Hmm, no, I am not talking about the theological justification for the term. I mean, why do we use the term, “Theotokos,” and do not simply use the English, “Mother of God?” After all, that term has been used by both Roman Catholic and Protestant. […]
So, before I start out in discussing the Orthodox view of the Virgin Mary, let me do something different. Let me list with which doctrines of the Virgin Mary both the Reformers and I would agree. Now, here is my point. If one disagrees with the Orthodox Church, with the Roman Catholic Church, and with […]
The Theotokos is a subject of much debate between Protestants, Catholics, and Orthodox. One of the people who commented on an earlier post asked me to speak to the Orthodox view of the Theotokos. That person commented that this was one of the areas of conflict/questions between Protestants and the rest of Christianity. So, I […]
Yesterday’s post pointed out that according to both the Bible and the Talmud, Bathsheba was considered to be innocent. In spite of that, both medieval and Victorian artists portrayed her as a willing participant, perhaps the main seductress, and, at a minimum, one who should have known better, given the way she publicly exposed herself. […]
Was Bathsheba a victim or a perpetrator? Here is another inkblot test for you. The initial details of the story are deceptively simple: In the spring, at the time when kings go off to war, David sent Joab out with the king’s men and the whole Israelite army. They destroyed the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah. […]
Sometimes, when we discuss theology, we forget to look at the human historical elements of a situation. The funny thing is that centuries later, we will talk about that situation divorced from the humanity of what happened and then wonder why we cannot understand how on earth the situation could have wound up the way […]
I do not believe David Wilkerson is correct. Nevertheless, this is his latest prophecy. http://davidwilkersontoday.blogspot.com/2009/03/urgent-message.html [Later edit: I am convinced that David Wilkerson is very wrong in this message. I post it so that people may know what to avoid.]
What important fact has changed our view of history so that it led to a different conception of the Liturgical Year? I am sure I gave it away by that wording. That event is the Incarnation of Jesus Christ Our Lord, and his subsequent Death and Resurrection. History received a violent shock to itself. All […]
