  • The Occult Teachings of the Christ According to the Secret Doctrine By: Josephine Ransom
    Adyar Pamphlets The Occult Teachings of the Christ... No. 179 The Occult Teachings of the Christ According to the Secret Doctrine by: Josephine Ransom The Blavatsky Lecture, delivered before the Annual Convention of the Theosophical Society in England, 1933 The references are to the original Secret Doctrine by H.P.Blavatsky , published in 1888 Published in 1933 Theosophical Publishing House, Adyar, Chennai [Madras] India The Theosophist Office, Adyar, Madras. India “For the teachings of Christ were Occult teachings, which could only be explained at Initiation” [ Secret Doctrine, Volume 2, Page 241] I In presenting my theme I must make it clear that I have drawn solely upon The Secret Doctrine for information. I have not sought elsewhere for corroboration or amplification of any point, save a few quotations from the Bible and have made but few comments myself. I leave it to the students to seek their own answers to the question that must inevitably arise in their minds as the story unfolds. For the sake of a sequence these questions are essential: (1) Who was the Christ? (2) Who was Jesus? [Page 2] (3) What were the Occult Teachings of the Christ? (1) Who was the Christ? The answer comes clearly:“The Logos is Christos.....” (S.D. 1, 241) “......There are three kinds of Light in Occultism .....(1) The Abstract and Absolute Light, which is Darkness; (2) The Light of the Manifested — Unmanifested, called by some the Logos; and (3) The latter Light reflected in the Dhyân Chohans, the minor Logoi — the Elohim, collectively — who, in their turn, shed it on the objective Universe.....” “The Occultists in the East call this Light Daiviprakriti, and in the West the Light of Christos.

  • Divinity of Christ
    P.O. Box 1009 Allen, TX 75013-0017 Dear Friend, Was Jesus God? Scripture shows that He was—and is. In John 1, verses 1 and 14 are unarguably plain on the nature of Christ’s divinity, as well as about Christ’s preexistence. John wrote: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. … And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” People often ask about Isaiah 45:5 in regard to whether Jesus was divine. Isaiah was inspired to write of God, “I am the LORD, and there is no other; there is no God besides Me.” Chapter 45 isn’t about the nature of God, but rather about combatting Israel’s wrong belief in idols (verses 16, 20). Chapter 46 follows with a more detailed attack, “To whom will you liken Me, and make Me equal. … They hire a goldsmith, and he makes it a god” (verses 5-6). The average Israelite wasn’t aware of another Being, with whom the God of the Old Testament shared a divine family relationship. So they would have understood Isaiah from the standpoint of his refuting idolatrous religions. Trinitarians mistakenly insert the nature-of-God debate into this and other verses, such as Deuteronomy 6:4, which aren’t discussing His nature. Those who attempt to make Isaiah 45 about the nature of God argue that Christ could not be God, since the God of the Old Testament said, “There is no God besides Me.” When understood accurately, this verse actually helps to prove the divinity of Jesus Christ.

  • Defiant Afterlife–Disability and Uniting Ourselves To
    Defiant Afterlife{Disability and Uniting Ourselves to God Kevin Timpe, Calvin College We are not justified in affirming even of monstrosities, which are born and die, whowever quickly they may die, that they shall not rise again, nor that they shall rise again in their deformity, and not rather with an amended and perfected body. Augustine, Enchiridion, chapter 87: \The Case of Monstrous Births" Ableism is believing that heaven is an able-bodied place where broken bodies finally become whole. Maria R. Palacios, \Naming Ableism" Abstract Many of the Church's leading theologians have struggled with how indi- viduals with disabilities could be perfectly united to God in the afterlife. For some, union with God requires that individuals with disabilities will have those disabilities `cures' or `healed' prior to heavenly union with God. Others have suggested that certain profound disabilities preclude an individual's ability to have such union, thus suggesting, even if only implicitly, that such individuals have no eschatological place in the Body of Christ. In the present paper, I develop and consider an argument for the possibility of individuals retaining their disabilities in the eschaton and nevertheless enjoying complete union with God (and through God to others). I don't think that the argument I develop here applies equally well to all disabilities; but I think it gives us reason to good to consider heavenly disability as part of a plausible speculative theology. 1 Timpe, “Defiant Afterlife" Logos version 1 Introduction Historically, the treatment of individuals with disabilities1 by the Church has been mixed. Many Christians have evidenced a profound care of and concern for individuals with disabilities throughout much of the Church's history; and there are certainly pockets of its history wherein aspects of the Church have evidenced not just personal but communal care and inclusion of those with disabilities.

  • Orthodox Ecclesiology in Sophianic Key an Analysis of Sergei Bulgakov's Ecclesiological Vision
    Logos: A Journal of Eastern Christian Studies Vol. 55 (2014) Nos. 1–2, pp. 69–117 Orthodox Ecclesiology in Sophianic Key An Analysis of Sergei Bulgakov’s Ecclesiological Vision Stefan Barbu Abstract (Українське резюме на ст. 117) This article treats the connections between sophiology and ecclesiology, a connection clearly seen in the writings of Sergei Bulgakov, though seldom analyzed there or seen else- where. In the present study, after introducing the sophiologi- cal question, the author analyzes several key ecclesiological elements Bulgakov addressed in various studies. The present study claims that a re-appropriation of Bulgakov’s ecclesio- logy might prove salutary both for the modern ecumenical dialogue as well as for the Orthodox Church as such, espe- cially in addressing the growing concerns as to the clericaliza- tion of ecclesial processes of governance – synods, diocesan assemblies, and cognate bodies. Introduction Sergei Bulgakov (1871–1944) is mainly known for his so- phiology, although studies on his ecclesiology or ecumenical vision are not lacking either. However, Bulgakov’s works have only recently been published in languages other than Russian, and much remains to be done since he was an extremely proli- 70 Stefan Barbu fic author,1 writing twenty-eight volumes and hundreds of articles counting around 20,000 pages, not all of them easily comprehensible or accessible.2 In the present study we propose to re-visit Bulgakov’s ec- clesiological perspective starting from his sophianic vision. It is not our intention to judge the Orthodoxy of his sophiology. It is nonetheless impressive to see how seriously Bulgakov takes the idea that the Church is a pre-creation reality.

  • The Logos As the Medium of Creation and Revelation
    Arnold Janssen Lecture 2014 Arnold Janssen Spirituality Centre, Boronia The Logos as the Medium of Creation and Revelation Jacob Kavunkal svd Of all the concepts of Christian theology, expressing universalism, that of the Logos is second only to the God of creation (Gen 1:1). The fourth evangelist begins his gospel narrative with “the great hymn to the universe” (Marcus Borg), opening with the words: “In the beginning was the Word,” that is revealed in his incarnation in Jesus. For this all- comprehensive universalism John makes use of the term Logos, that has its roots both in the Jewish thought as well as the Greek Philosophy. Dabar in the Old Testament In the bible the link between Jesus Christ and the universal connectedness and relationship is the incarnation of the divine word (dabar). The Old Testament makes use of two words as intermediary between God and creation: wisdom (hokma) and word (dabar). “The worlds were made by the word of God” (Ps 33:6). However, the word wisdom is made use of more frequently in the context of this creation. Recent biblical studies have given new insights into the centrality of wisdom in the ancient Hebrew tradition. Biblical scholarship has shown the importance of the figure of personified wisdom, particularly in the books of Job, Proverbs, Sirach and the Wisdom of Solomon. Wisdom is always closely associated with God’s work of creation. Wisdom is connected with the whole of creation; it is present with God at creation as a skilled co-worker (Prov 8:30; Wis 7:22; 8:6).

  • The Logos Was God' by Ed
    'The Logos was God' by Ed. L. Miller The translation ofJohn 1:1 still causes problems if we may judge by the variery of renderings in modern versions of the New Testament. It was discussed briefly in THE EVANGELICAL QUARTERLY some years ago by V. Perry with particular reference,to the teaching ofJehovah's Witnesses (EQ35, 1963, 15-22). We are grateful to Dr. Miller for raising the matter afresh. The deity ofJesus, together with the cross and resurrection, stands at the centre of the theology (or theologies) of the New Testament. 1 On the other hand, if we turn from what is everywhere assumed or implied about the deity of Jesus to what is stated explicitly and unambiguously - for example, 'Jesus is God' - we encounter very little. The only real candidates for such unequivocal claims are: John 1:1; 1:18; 20:28; Rom. 9:5; Col. 2:2; Tit. 2:13; Heb. 1:8-9; 2 Pet. 1:1.2 Out of these eight passages, three are found in John. Of these three, everyone acknowledges John 20:28 to be an unequivocal 'deity-passage', even the otherwise sceptical Taylor who calls it the 'one clear ascription of Deity to Christ' .3 John 1: 18 has always been clouded by a textual problem, but most scholars now correctly take monogenes theos ('only God') rather than monogenes huios ('only Son') to be the original reading. In addition to being the lectio dijjicilior, it is supported by a long list of MSS., Fathers, and Versions, including Vaticanus, Sinaiticus, and now also p66 and 65 I It is, of course, one thing to deny that Jesus Christ was God incarnate and quite another to deny that the New Testament writers believed and taught this.

  • The Book of Mormon and Patriarchal Blessings: Reflections by an Ordained Patriarch
    The Book of Mormon and Patriarchal Blessings: Reflections by an Ordained Patriarch richard dilworth rust Richard Dilworth Rust ([email protected]) is a professor emeritus of English at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. n my service as a stake patriarch before going on several missions with Imy wife and subsequently in giving patriarchal blessings to several of my grandchildren, I have learned how the Book of Mormon as a whole and in its parts can be likened in many ways to a patriarchal blessing. Likewise, a patriarchal blessing given by an ordained patriarch can be likened to the Book of Mormon. An increased understanding of the one can help us better under- stand and value the other. In looking at the Book of Mormon and patriarchal blessings together, one can see even more clearly God’s system of revelation and prophecy and its personal application. The Principle of “Likening Unto” Likening one thing unto another does not mean there is equivalence between the two. Rather, it is a method of highlighting certain aspects of one thing found in the other. In a revelation given to Joseph Smith, the Lord asked, “Unto what shall I liken these kingdoms, that ye may understand?” Then he John Luke, © Intellectual Reserve, Inc. © Intellectual Reserve, John Luke, answered, “Behold, I will liken these kingdoms unto a man having a field, and When a patriarchal blessing is given, the recipient first hears the blessing and can feel at the time a confirmation by the Holy Ghost. Subsequently, he or she can read and reread the blessing as a personal scripture.
