About
What is Orthodoxy? Is it a religion? What is the essence of Orthodox Tradition? What is theosis? What are the "two kinds of faith" and "two kinds of revelation"? Who is God-inspired, and who is a theologian? Who is spiritually ill and who is healthy? What is "noetic prayer"? What is the difference between Orthodoxy and heresy? What is the essence of God, and what are His energies? These and other such questions are answered in this unique volume of Fr. John Romanides' university lectures. These talks, originally given in 1983 to college freshmen, are vintage Romanides yet made simple and accessible for the average layman. Patristic Theology is the common man's "handbook" to Orthodox dogmatic theology and an indispensable volume for every believer's struggle for salvation.
