This book is a general account of the doctrine, worship and life of Orthodox Christians by the author of the now classic The Orthodox Church. It raises the basic issues of theology: God is hidden yet revealed; the problem with evil; the nature of salvation; the meaning of faith; prayer; death and what lies beyond. From the author of "The Orthodox Church." Discusses the basic practices of the orthodox faith. I would recommend this to people who are interested in Orthodoxy beyond just an academic viewpoint, though it could certainly be used for that as well. The author writes very personally, though the book also contains great information on an academic level. Western Christianity is incomplete without its other half, the Eastern. My faith made more sense when I began, some years ago, to learn a little about Orthodoxy. Celtic Christian spirituality is very similar, and when I asked an Orthodox priest about this, he said "They are the same". They do not have St Augustine's doctrine of original sin, and there is a more profound reverence for God's creation. They say "Have peace in your soul, and thousands around you will be saved". I think I have experienced the truth of that, in a small way. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

It raises the basic issues of theology: God as hidden yet revealed; the problem of evil; the nature of salvation; the meaning of faith; prayer; death and what lies beyond. Throughout the book, Bishop Kallistos Ware shows the meaning of Orthodox doctrine for the life of the individual Christian. Doctrinal issues are seen not as abstract propositions for theological debate but as affecting the whole of life. --From publisher's description. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
