Genesis Explained 3: Nephilim, Noah & The City of God – Jay Dyer (Half)


We move on to cover the two cities allegory of St Augustine – the city of God and the city of man, as both progress from the early age of man. The city of God is the Church, and the city of man is the city of humanism and Satanism, under the dominion of the devil. We will move from Genesis 4 to 6 and touch upon the Nehphilim and the typology and meaning of the story of Noah.

Bahnsen / Stein Debate Review & Analysis – Jay Dyer


Today we do a full analysis of the greatest debate of the 2oth century – the Bahnsen/Stein Debate. Hopefully we will cover the many misunderstandings that arise from various sectors concerning the transcendental argument, the nature of proofs and evidences, the compatibility of philosophy with Orthodoxy, and especially this form of argumentation, the word-concept fallacy, calvinism and much more. Part 2 of the other talk will be up later tomorrow or the day after.
 

 

Genesis Explained 2 – Jay Dyer (Half)

We return to the Genesis series as we cover the second chapter and its significance for man, as well as the secret prophetic and symbolic meanings, recalling the patristic analysis as well as the canonical context and typology. Genesis 2 focuses on the covenantal relationship between man and God, while chapter was cosmic in scope. I also explain the silly fiasco with Inspiring Philosophy at the outset as well as how it’s necessary to follow me on the backups. Live at 630 PM EST 

 

Debate: Jay Dyer Vs Scott Smith – Orthodoxy Vs Gnosticism

I was invited back to Aeon Byte for a debate – this is uploaded with express written permission. Jay Dyer and Scott Smith joined us for a civil but passionate debate. We discussed the Gnostic and Orthodox differences on Theodicy, Biblical Inerrancy, Free Will, Salvation, the nature of Jesus, and much more. Is the world evil or in harmony? Is the Old Testament about a good or evil god? What were the true origins of Christianity? And much more. For some reason, my vaping was as incendiary as the topics.

 

Jerusalem & Athens – Jay Dyer & FrDcn Ananias Sorem (Half)


Fr.Dcn. Ananias Sorem returns to cover the relationship between Jerusalem and Athens – revelation and reason. Firstly, they are and aren’t in tension – and we’ll see how. Secondly, terms and words are not synonymous – there may be overlap at times, but the meanings of the words are unique in Orthodox theology. Second, we want to look at the Amazon synod, the relationship to Vatican II and perennialism and true and false ecumenism.
