Reason, Faith and Incarnation in Irenaeus | Fr. Khaled Anatolios

Nov 9, 2016
Fr. Khaled Anatolios, expert in early Christian theology, discusses reason, faith, and incarnation in Irenaeus' theology. They explore the contrast between Gnostic beliefs lacking evidence and Catholic faith grounded in rationality and testimony. The importance of divine transcendence, God's engagement with creation, and the synthesis of faith and reason within a Trinitarian framework are highlighted. Irenaeus' emphasis on testimony for rationality, clarity within the Catholic Church, and parallels to other scholars' ideas are also explored.
