Episode notes
Authority Requires Legitimate Grounding
- Authority must be judged by its legitimacy, not merely title or position.
- Being in a non-Orthodox ecclesial body can require selective disobedience when doctrine diverges from the true way of salvation.
Don't Seek Heroic Defiance
- Avoid aspiring to be a heroic pillar saint unless God explicitly calls you to it.
- Live a calm, obedient life in godliness and sanctity instead of fantasy rebellion against bishops.
People's Judgment Is Not Divine Endorsement
- Popular uprisings or secular depositions aren't reliable indicators of ecclesial truth.
- God can judge through messy historical means without endorsing their methods.
