Auto-Tuning Theology: The Trinity
St. Athanasius – First letter to Serapion
More Athanasius! In this installment, Athanasius–in his distinct way–nicely summarizes some of the more important aspects of Trinitarian theology. Definitely a great passage 🙂
It will not be out of place to consider the ancient tradition, teaching and faith of the Catholic Church, which was revealed by the Lord, proclaimed by the apostles and guarded by the fathers. For upon this faith the Church is built…
Light, radiance and grace are in the Trinity and from the Trinity
Light, radiance and grace are in the Trinity and from the Trinity
We acknowledge the Trinity, holy and perfect, to consist of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
In this Trinity there is no intrusion of any alien element or of anything from outside, nor is the Trinity a blend of creative and created being.
Light, radiance and grace are in the Trinity and from the Trinity
Light, radiance and grace are in the Trinity and from the Trinity
It is a wholly creative and energizing reality, self-consistent and undivided in its active power,
For the Father makes all things through the Word and in the Holy Spirit, and in this way the unity is preserved.
Light, radiance and grace are in the Trinity and from the Trinity
Light, radiance and grace are in the Trinity and from the Trinity
Accordingly, in the Church, one God is preached, one God who is above all things and through all things and in all things.
God is above all things as Father, for he is principle and source;
he is through all things through the Word;
and he is in all things in the Holy Spirit.
Light, radiance and grace are in the Trinity and from the Trinity
Light, radiance and grace are in the Trinity and from the Trinity

Auto-Tuning Theology: The Disappearance of Death
about 14 years ago - No comments
Continuing with Athanasius, we come across an outstanding passage from On the Incarnation of the Word wherein Athanasius brilliantly lays out the reason for Christ’s Incarnation. But for Athanasius, the importance of the Incarnation is of more importance than the mere appearing of God in the person of Christ. Rather, he sees an indelible link between the…
Athanasius: Mortality and the Problem of Unbecoming
about 14 years ago - 1 comment
Throughout theological history, there have been many theories set forth regarding the origin and theological meaning of human mortality. Some, seeing mortality as the result of a departure from a pristine existence in the Garden of Eden, root the advent of human mortality in the “fall” of Adam and Eve by virtue of their disobedience…

St. Athanasius – On the Incarnation of the Word, 54 In the second part of Auto-Tuning Theology, we stick with Athanasius and select a passage for which he is probably most famous: his outline of the doctrine of Theosis. Listen to the Track As, then, he who desires to see God Who by nature is…
