Episode notes
Mary's Preservation And Sin Defined
- Jay affirms Orthodox Mariology: Mary is preserved by grace and deified, fitting her role as the new Eve and Theotokos.
- He contrasts 'state of being' sin with 'actual acts' of sin, arguing infants lack willful sin though they bear fallen effects.
Cappadocians And The 'Sole Cause' Dictum
- Jay outlines the Cappadocian dictum: hypostatic properties are unique and non‑communicable, so the Father as 'sole cause' cannot share that property.
- He uses this to explain why the Filioque is theologically unacceptable in Orthodox Trinitarian doctrine.
Justification Depends On Medieval Nominalism
- Jay argues the Reformers relied on nominalist medieval thought to make justification a legal imputation rather than an ontological change.
- He claims ancient and medieval writers did not hold a forensic-only view, so Protestant sola fide is historically novel.
