James Meyers, III considers the philosophy of Existentialism. While perhaps a familiar term, few are able to define it. However, James finds it to be perhaps the most influential secular philosophy and it also enjoyed a fairly swift popularity as compared to other philosophies. James discusses two very influential men who, in their lives, propagated existentialism, albeit in diametrically opposing ways: the nihilistic existentialis...
James Meyers, III begins a series considering a variety of worldviews which have infiltrated and been subsumed in the present Western culture. In the first section of the series, James will discuss these worldviews under the general category of Secularism. The Church tends to see Secularism as worldliness, which James dismisses. However, some of the irreligious underpinnings have seeped into our society. It is James’s opinion that ...
James Meyers, III concludes this series which has been an overview of the Trinity by considering the eternal love between the Persons of the Trinity and how the people of God are brought into the unity of love that is everlasting. In this session, James discusses how Christ and the Holy Spirit have been sent to send us, just as Abraham was blessed to be a blessing. As we are joined into the eternal fellowship within the Godhead, we...
Having given a historical overview regarding the Doctrine of the Trinity, James Meyers, III considers what the Bible says about the House of God. Should we be sons and daughters of God the Father, where are we to find our home? Is it in the church? Are we to seek the House of God, or does He establish our house? James considers this and more in hopes it enriches and encourages the Saints of God.
James Meyers, III reflects upon a variety of heresies which arose during the Early Church, and shows their incongruity with Scripture while, also, admitting much of Christian Orthodoxy may not have been developed without them. Often in Church History, it has been in the eras of the greatest errors when the Church has needed to correct and refute both confusion and impetuosity, and thereby has better defined Her Faith. In this sessi...
James Meyers, III takes us through some biblical passages referring to the Person of the Holy Spirit prior to discussing the historical development of Pneumatology in our next session. As vital as the study of Christology is, James believes the study of the Person and Work of God the Holy Spirit is one which is in dire need today.
James Meyers, III considers a variety of theological terms which were used somewhat interchangeably in the early church, but were clarified prior to the Council of Constantinople in 381 A.D. While perhaps this might seem pedantic or fastidious on the surface, it can assist us to understand what is being expressed when we discuss the Divine Trinity.
James Meyers, III continues considering the early development of Christology which began prior to and became furiously threatened following the Council of Nicea, and yet defended and articulated in particular through the great and unwavering theologian, Athanasius. James discusses some of his main contributions while setting the historical scene through which orthodoxy was to emerge victorious.
James Meyers, III discusses what led to the first ecumenical council which took place in Nicea in 325 A.D. He begins with the church’s birth at Pentecost and briefly considers the theological climate prior to Constantine calling bishops from all the empire to meet in Nicea and what caused the foundational and necessary creed produced at this great council.
In our second session considering the Doctrine of the Trinity, James Meyers, III discusses the distinction between the Ontological Trinity and the Economic Trinity which he then develops into what is referred to the hypostasis of God, or simply what is foundational to Him, and the ekstasis of God, or what proceeds from, or comes out of, God. In this, James hopes to show that the hypostasis of God the Father, God the Son, and God th...
James Meyers, III begins a new series regarding the historical development in understanding the Christian doctrine of the Trinity. In this session, he considers how we might view the Trinity in light of God’s revelation through the Son of God and how recent scholastic criticism misunderstands the distinctions between a contradiction, a paradox, and a mystery. James shows how the Trinity is quite mysterious, but how it is still, by ...
James Meyers, III concludes this series considering the Decalogue through the Christian perspective by considering the tenth commandment forbidding coveting and summarizing the whole Law as Christ did. He considers why we are commanded to love our neighbor as a fulfillment of loving God.
James Meyers, III considers the ninth commandment forbidding false testimony. If we call ourselves Christians, then when we lie, we make His name futile. As Christ is the absolute Truth, we are to be those of trustworthy testimony to His glory and our peace in sanctification.
James Meyers, III considers the eighth commandment forbidding stealing. As theft is a violation of a person’s personal property, James discusses how the victim and God are violated when this commandment is broken. The prophet, Malachi, asks, “Will a man rob God?” The Christian must mediate how we are not only forbidden to steal, but how we might give to the glory of God.
James Meyers, III discusses the sacred institution of marriage and how our age has sought to demean it. The analogy of marriage where God is our husband as found in the Scriptures gives us better light into the solemnity of a husband and wife coming together. James, also, considers what Adam said about his wife before the fall and how this prophetic word is to be applied to marriages ordained by God.
James Meyers, III considers what he perceives to be the first anthropological commandment, namely, the sixth commandment forbidding murder. He briefly discusses two of the most pressing issues in our day, capital punishment, abortion, and suicide before discussing what Christ said about this commandment. As it is forbidden to unjustly take life, so it is commanded to promote it.
James Meyers, III considers the Fifth Commandment which he believes to be a transition into the anthropocentric table of the Law. Many commentators say this commandment is the first law of the Second Table. However, James discusses why he believes it belongs in the First Table and how we obey this command, and the possible reason God places this commandment before forbidding murder.
James Meyers, III discusses the Fourth Commandment culminating in the Lord’s Day. As He is Lord of the Sabbath, James considers how the Christian should see the blessings found therein.
James Meyers, III considers the Third Commandment, first as following the Second, then proceeding with a more encompassing interpretation of what it is to take the name of the Lord God in vain. According to James, this Commandment is typically viewed as something fairly shallow, but he hopes to show its profound depths.
James Meyers, III briefly considers the sanctions and the rewards which are found in obeying or disobeying the second commandment. Are curses and blessings generational? James considers this and how the Roman Catholic Church teaches the veneration of the saints. It is our opinion that though She makes distinctions which avoid idolatry, it is a distinction without a difference. However, our intention is not to condemn Rome, but to e...
