Episode notes
Christ Is The Key To Understanding God
- The truth about God's nature is revealed in Christ and must be read in light of the New Testament.
- Interpreting Old Testament texts without Christ obscures the revealed triune nature of God.
Read Scripture And Use The Tradition
- Read the Scriptures regularly, especially the New Testament, to grasp Trinitarian teaching.
- Use liturgy, Fathers, icons, and prayer to unpack Scripture rather than relying on isolated verses.
Councils Clarified, They Did Not Invent
- Historical heresies like Paul of Samosata and Arius denied Christ's full divinity and prompted clarification.
- Councils like Nicaea responded to preserve apostolic teaching, not to invent doctrine.
