Substitutionary Atonement? Christology, Essence – Energy BK III – Ep 9 – Jay Dyer (Half)


We return to Defense of the Orthodox Faith, Book III to demonstrate the obvious teaching of St. John the essence-energy distinction directly impacts Christology, which directly impacts sacramentology and the doctrine of deification (as opposed to created grace in Rome). We also see how the doctrine refutes similar errors in Protestantism, including their heretical Nestorian atonement doctrine. We will also touch in the lack of any gnomic will in Christ and how this relates to proper anthropology and the doctrine of grace.

The Bible Alone Debate – Jay Dyer Vs RC Apologist


“RC Apologist” has mentioned me by name as someone he wants to debate Sola Scriptura with. Since I am a former Calvinist, I always welcome the opportunity to refute the position and its distinctives. The debate is not formal, but open crossfire and has no set time limit.  That the Church doesn’t determine her entire canon, but only the NT, is literally the stupidest argument I’ve ever heard.. “Dear rabbinical high court, What is the proper list of books that we heretic Christians should accept? Thanks, Paul the Apostle”

Defense of Metaphysics & Traditional Philosophy Ep 2 – Jay Dyer


Picking up where we left off on the last defense of theology and philosophy stream, I return to questions of apologetic method, the ontological status of numbers, logic and other invariant conceptual entities, the nature of metaphysics and transcendental arguments, the relationship of historical philosophy to dialectics and why dialectics must be avoided. We will also discuss revelation in Scripture in terms of the epistemic authority, the circularity of foundational truth claims at a fundamental level, as well as your questions. How do numbers prove God?

 

Cold War, Propaganda and CIA’s Doctrinal Warfare Against the Churches

Jay Dyer returns to Our Interesting Times to discuss his lecture “Cold War, Propaganda and CIA’s Doctrinal Warfare Against the Churches.” We talk about the history of manipulation and infiltration of the Christian churches, particularly the Orthodox Church and Catholic Churches, by western intelligence agencies. We also discuss how tax exempt foundations have been used to wage psychological and cultural war against traditional societies both domestically and abroad.
