When this prophecy was written by Isaiah it was the mightiest city of earth, and was yet to move on to greater glory under NEBUCHADNEZZAR'S MARVELLOUS REIGN.

  • “The Concept Of“ the Presence of God”- a Link
    ICOANA CREDINȚEI No. 10, Year 5/2019 http://revistaicoanacredintei.com/ ISSN 2501-3386, ISSN-L 2393-137X https://doi.org/10.26520/icoana.2019.10.5.21-30 THE CONCEPT OF ”THE PRESENCE OF GOD”- A LINK BETWEEN MISSIONARY THEOLOGY AND CHRISTIAN SPIRITUALITY Prof. Ph.D. David PESTROIU, “Faculty of Orthodox Theology ,,Justinian the Patriarch”, University of Bucharest, ROMANIA, E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT In a world of religious and moral dissolution, in which nihilist atheism and hedonistic consumerism prevail, missionary theology must propose to the secularized human the experience of reunion with God as a means of restarting the religious experience manifested concretely through prayer and intense spiritual life. Modernity has obviously fuelled deified conceptions, isolating God in an inaccessible transcendence, and promoting a total abandonment of the possibility of experiencing any form of real encounter with Him. The only way to get in touch with Him was rational knowledge, as it was found in the Bible, or logical deductions resulting from the dialogue between theology and science. But they dangerously lead to the postmodern concept of a God-idea, concept, force, etc., lacking the attribute of personality. According to Orthodox doctrine, God has a personal character, being, more specifically, a Trinity of Persons. Therefore, we find enough biblical and patristic grounds, all testifying to the existence of divine Presence. This Personal Presence is the basis of promoting an intense spiritual life of the faithful human, who is aware of the necessity of an organic bond with it, creating a true state of communion. It is, on the one hand, a personal relationship cultivated by every person through prayer, but also an inter-personal relationship created within the public cult, especially in the Divine Liturgy and the Holy Mysteries of the Church.

  • Greenville, South Carolina
    St. Mary’s Catholic Church @ @ @ @ @ Greenville, South Carolina 25 February 2018 Dear Friends in Christ, In the Nicene Creed we confess that Jesus Christ is “God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God,” and these words are an emphatic affirmation that the man who is the son of Mary is also the divine Second Person of the Most Holy Trinity. But the Light which we confess Christ to be is not the created light which sprang forth at the dawn of creation when the Father commanded: Let there be light! No, Christ Jesus in his divine nature is the bearer of the uncreated Light which is the brightness of divine glory, and in the Christian East that is often called Tabor Light as a reference to the holy mystery of Christ’s Transfiguration on Mt Tabor. The Transfiguration is described by Matthew, Mark, and Luke, and every year the Gospel appointed for the Second Sunday of Lent is an account of that event. The Lord Jesus takes the inner circle of the Twelve with him up a high mountain - identified by tradition as Mt Tabor - to prepare them for the tribulation to come, and the Catechism of the Catholic Church explains the significance of the event: “From the day Peter confessed that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God, the Master ‘began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things…and be killed and on the third day be raised.’ Peter scorns this prediction, nor do the others understand it any better than he.

  • The Spirituality of Andrei Rublev's Icon of the Holy Trinity
    Reimer The spirituality of Andrei Rublev’s Icon of the Holy Trinity J. Reimer THE SPIRITUALITY OF ANDREI RUBLEV’S ICON OF THE HOLY TRINITY ABSTRACT This article focuses on the work of Rublev who is considered to be the greatest medieval Russian Orthodox painter of icons and frescoes and whose work has influenced gene­ rations of Russian artists, theologians, writers and philosophers. It examines Rublev’s spirituality, both historically and theologically, with specific attention to the Icon of the Holy Trinity which is considered to be his most important work. 1. THE MAN AND HIS WORK Andrei Rublev1 is considered to be the greatest of all Russian Orthodox me­ dieval painters of icons and frescoes. He was born in either 1360 or 1370. His place of birth is unknown. In fact, little is known about his life. Orthodox histo­ rians believe he was a monk of the monastery founded by the famous monastic father Sergii Radonezhski,2 who died in 1392 and who was succeeded by Nikon of Radonezh. It is believed that Nikon was Andrei Rublev’s spiritual father.3 Rublev´s name was first mentioned in 1405 as one of three artists who de­ corated the Cathedral of the Annunciation in Moscow’s Kremlin. The other two masters were Theophanes the Greek and Prochor of Gorodets. Both are well known in Russian religious history.4 Rublev is mentioned last on the list, which is an indication of his relative youth and, probably, his monastic status. Ac­ cording to Russian chronicles, Rublev also painted icons and frescoes in the 1 Also: Andrei Rublev, Andrey Roublyov.

  • The Impact of Orthodox Christian Neptic – Psychotherapeutic Intervention on Self
    THE IMPACT OF ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN NEPTIC-PSYCHOTHERAPEUTIC INTERVENTIONS ON SELF-REPORTED DEPRESSIVE SYMPTOMATOLOGY AND COMORBID ANXIETY by ZORAN VUJISIC submitted in accordance with requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF THEOLOGY in the subject PRACTICAL THEOLOGY at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA SUPERVISOR: PROF A P PHILLIPS JOINT SUPERVISOR: DR P DI LEO NOVEMBER 2009 ABSTRACT Orthodox Christianity represents the oldest Christian tradition. However, the tragic schism between the Christian East and West has resulted in a lost cognizance of the East by the West (Chrysostomos, 2007). Ultimately, this loss, for the West, involves the loss of part of its own Christian heritage. As attempts at rapprochement are made, on the ecclesiastical, cultural, and international levels, it is important that the West begin to develop an understanding of human psychology from an Orthodox perspective, i.e., a psychology consistent with the cosmology and soteriology of Orthodoxy. Orthodox Christian Psychotherapy bridges the divide between mystical, neptic, and hesychastic teachings and the methods and goals of modern Western psychotherapy. It is the meeting of the transcendent and the secular, and of spirituality and psychotherapy, as they impact all those in need of inner healing from spiritual, behavioral, and / or psychological disorders and pathologies (St. John Climacus, 1979; Romanides, 2007). This study in practical theology concretizes the above by examining the intensity of depressive symptomatology and comorbid anxiety before and after a twelve-week treatment plan using Orthodox Christian neptic-psychotherapeutic interventions and techniques. The results represent yet another step in disentangling the mystery of the relationship between spirituality, psychological treatment, and mental health.

It has been widely used, taught and discussed throughout the history of the Eastern Churches. The exact words of the prayer have varied from the simplest possible involving Jesus' name to the more common extended form: Christogram with Jesus Prayer in Romanian: Doamne Iisuse Hristoase, Fiul lui Dumnezeu, miluieşte-mă pe mine păcătosul ("Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner"). “Κύριε Ιησού Χριστέ, Υιέ του Θεού, ελέησόν με τον αμαρτωλόν.” “Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner.” [2] The Jesus Prayer is for the Eastern Orthodox one of the most profound and mystical prayers and it is often repeated continually as a part of personal ascetic practice.
