St. Athanasius, Uncreated Grace & Orthodox Apologetics – Against the Pagans (Partial)

Summary: In this intro video that sets the stage for the full lecture on St. Athanasius’ apologetic work, Ad Gentes or Against the Heathen, we do a presuppositional critique of paganism. In the free video section I set this approach off against the failed method of Thomsitic apologetics and “classical arguments” and show how the doctrine of the Uncreated Grace and Light of Tabor – the direct seeing of God is destroyed by Thomism and absolute divine simplicity. Proper theology leads to proper anthropology – and then to proper apologetics, as we dive into the full work in the members’ section available at JaysAnalysis at the PayPal Links.
