This was one of my favorite interviews. Fr David was an evangelical pastor when he started teaching the history of Christianity. He realized then that he had to make a switch. But would his congregation follow? Premieres at 7pm CST. ☦️ @DissidentMedia youtu.be/U07HwJUB0gU?si…

Vous me citez vos réseaux, moi, je cite vos évêques. Si l’Assembly of Bishops se trompe, prévenez-les. En attendant, mon objection tient : le statut canonique de Peter Heers est loin d’être clair. Ce n’est donc pas la meilleure personne pour faire la leçon aux protestants. assemblyofbishops.org/news/2023/comm… P.S. : S’il y a une mise à jour, je retirerai mes tweets. Je les garde jusqu’à preuve du contraire.

@anfucius @Craig_Truglia Your criteria is not that of the Holy Fathers, or, for that matter, our Lord, who chose 12 fishermen. If you continue to think that theology belongs to the speculators and rartionalists and not to the one who prays, you will remain enclosed and inhibited to spiritual progress.

For those who likewise are challenged by the possibility that something that is once blessed may not always be blessed: Oikonomia is blessed and essential and impossible to extract from the church in the bishop (and priest). There are, however, presuppositions for oikonomia. Oikonomia is never a precedent. Oikonomia can be misapplied. God is above His Mysteries/Economy and in spite of human error can and does work with those who are received into the Church, communing, and confessing... So... it is BOTH - AND... depending on whether or not the presuppositions are met and there is NEED (i.e. a basis for oikonomia (departing form exactitude).

We don't expect you to be able to go beyond the one-liners, gotchas, slogans, and catch-phrases of the very superficial ideological approach customary and common on this platform to understand that... Oikonomia is blessed and essential and impossible to extract from the church in the bishop (and priest). There are, however, presuppositions for oikonomia. Oikonomia is never a precedent. Oikonomia can be misapplied. God is above His Mysteries/Economy and in spite of human error can and does work with those who are received into the Church, communing, and confessing... So... it is BOTH - AND... To answer your "question"...

I do not have the details personally, but I spoke with Elder George and Fr. Luke at Grigoriou and they told me that in their correspondence at the very end of his life, he agreed with them and accepted that he erred earlier on with regard to the Monophysitism of the Non-Chalecedonians.

Following a bit of the Protestant polemics against Orthodoxy recently, and I realize just how difficult it is to communicate the mind of the Church across these lines. A simple example is seeing people confused about whether someone who is not baptised and participating in Orthodox communion can be "saved". Protestant are noticing that there are different answers in their estimation, and so are confused about them. The confusion comes from the belief that being "saved" or not is about "where you go after you die", when for the Orthodox "saved" means being made whole, being healed, being restored to the original purpose God had for us. For this reason, when Protestants see declarations of how communion in the body of Christ is the only way to salvation, they immediately think this is a declaration that all the non-Orthodox are going to hell after they die. When Protestants then hear the very same person who just told them that salvation is in full participation to the body of Christ go on to intimate we have nothing to say about the eschatological finality of any specific soul, it is like a short circuit that many Protestants cannot compute. This is what I could see when @OrthodoxEthos and @Acts17David were discussing and it is what I have seen in @gavinortlund's videos. In a similar vein, when a Protestant says he has the "assurance of his own personal salvation", this is confusing to the Orthodox. Orthodox also obviously have assurance of salvation, that assurance is Christ. He shows us what it means to be made whole and makes us participate in that wholeness. But how can I say that I am "saved" if I see that I am still a wretch, still prideful and arrogant and sinful? So the Orthodox, knowing they are are still sinning, though also knowing Christ has made them grow in the virtues will say something like: "I know that I am being saved." That is I can see that I am being healed, being made whole, being reformed to the resemblence of God. But again, this completely confuses the Protestant who just wants to know what will happen when you die. What side of the fence will you end up on? I am not sure how to get accross these lines, and I feel that unless we can, we will perpetually be talking past each other.

There seems to be a pattern. Whenever I give God glory because someone left EO, they immediately respond with, “Well, this number of Protestants became EO.” That’s good for you. I didn’t ask Sadly though, you guys seem to care a lot. If what we do is minuscule why do you care?

@ImbernonJoseph @OrthodoxEthos Is the communion between the Romanian Patriarchy and ROCOR broken? No is not! Therefore Father Heers is as canonical as it gets God bless!

Ce que je trouve problématique, c’est que plusieurs figures publiques qui nous parlent sans cesse d’ecclésiologie, d’autorité visible et de communion canonique ont elles-mêmes des statuts ecclésiaux difficiles à suivre, marginaux, contestés ou instables. Si l’argument est : “Vous, protestants, vous êtes désordonnés parce que vous n’avez pas d’autorité visible claire”, alors le minimum serait de parler depuis une situation ecclésiale claire, reconnue et stable. Un peu d'humilité ? Je pense notamment à @OrthodoxEthos et @calvinrobinson. On ne peut pas transformer l’ecclésiologie en argument répétitif tout en vivant soi-même dans une zone canonique grise. @calvinrobinson ne reconnaît pas Douglas Wilson comme pasteur. Très bien. Mais qui le reconnaît lui-même comme prêtre ? Ni Rome, ni les juridictions anglicanes majeures. @OrthodoxEthos, lui, n’est pas reconnu par les juridictions orthodoxes canoniques du pays où il exerce publiquement. À ce niveau-là, cela ressemble à une grande mascarade canonique. On ne peut pas vendre “l’ordre visible” aux autres avec une carte d’identité ecclésiale aussi étrange. Vous reprochez aux protestants leur désordre, mais sur ce point précis, vous êtes le désordre !

@OrthodoxEthos Êtes-vous reconnu par ROCOR ? La réponse publique disponible est : non, pas par ROCOR Eastern American Diocese, selon le communiqué ci-joint. Je suis désolé, mais ce n'est pas du tout clair. Cela n'a rien contre vous spécifiquement. orthodoxyindialogue.com/2023/04/
