Origen: Trinity, Creatio Ex Nihilo & the Church as Spiritual Israel Pt. 2

I continue from where I left off from Book II of Origen’s commentary on John: Origen: Trinity, Creatio Ex Nihilo & the Church as Spiritual Israel.

  1. The Word Was in the Beginning, I.e., in Wisdom, Which Contained All Things in Idea, Before They Existed. Christ's Character as Wisdom is Prior to His Other Characters.

So many meanings occur to us at once of the word arche. We have now to ask…

Origen: Trinity, Creatio Ex Nihilo & the Church as Spiritual Israel

In this post I will be quoting from the Commentary on John (Origen).

The citations that I will be providing will help the readers see that Origen affirms,

The Monarchy (monarchia) of the Father, that he is the unbegotten Source of Divinity.

Christ is the uncreated Wisdom of God, being the timelessly begotten Son of the Father.

Christ is the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the…

Origen: Monarchia & the Filioque

The following excerpts are from Origen’s Commentary on the Gospel of John. In this section, Origen will argue for the Father being stronger and greater than the Son, and the Spirit owing his existence/essence to the Son, and not just the Father alone. However, Origen makes it clear that he doesn’t mean this in terms of the Son and Spirit being created from nothing or creation, but in respect to…

Justin Martyr, Messianic Prophecies & Acts of Pilate

The excerpts cited here are taken from St. Justin Martyr’s First Apology.

Justin appeals to Old Testament prophecies and to written records by Pilate, which were still in existence, to convince the Roman authorities of the divine origin and historicity of the Christian faith. Justin’s knowledge of Messianic prophecies is truly remarkable since he cites a plethora of OT texts to prove that Jesus…

Novatian, Trinity, Modalism, Hypostatic Union Pt. 2

I continue from where I previously left off: Novatian, Trinity, Modalism, Hypostatic Union.

Chapter 20.

It is Proved from the Scriptures that Christ Was Called an Angel. But Yet It is Shown from Other Parts of Holy Scripture that He is God Also.

But if some heretic, obstinately struggling against the truth, should persist in all these instances either in understanding that Christ was properly…

The Abundance Gang Has a Big AI Problem

In early February, Axios reported that “Ezra Klein’s Abundance movement is getting some backup” in the form of a new group: Next American Era, headed by former Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee head, Illinois congresswoman, and longtime Washington insider Cheri Bustos. Bustos’s group, per the report, would be committed to “‘pro-growth,’ deregulatory policies.” This is hardly surprising;…

St. Gregory of Nyssa on the Filioque

In this post I will share a few quotes from St. Gregory in respect to the Filioque, e.g., the Holy Spirit’s eternal procession from the Father by/through the Son. All emphasis will be mine.

Indeed, it would be a lengthy task to set out in detail from the Scriptures those constructions which are inexactly expressed, in order to prove the statement I have made; where, however, there is a…
