St. Basil the Great's On the Holy Spirit was a great resource for me to begin to understand the Holy Trinity as I was coming from an Ex-Muslim background.
What kinda Muslim were you before, Sunni or Syiah? And how do you view Tauhid on Trinity..
Godbless you brother I was a messianic Jew now converted to Orthodoxy a few years ago it heals all things
O Holy and Venerable Basil the Great, Archbishop of Caesarea, pray for me a sinner!!
🙏🏻
I'm just here for ANYONE titled "the Great". 🙌
Hi creative orthodox. I love your skits from the sayings of the desert fathers.
Love your work, @creativeorthodox
So, The Great Gatsby or The Great Mouse Detective? What's next? 😅
Lord Jesus Christ Son of God have mercy on me a sinner 💖🙏
🙏🏻
When you're so unequivocally based the emperor gives you a plot of land
Do you mind doing a series on the ecumenical councils in full? I’m more interested in the second and third councils of Constantinople.
I don't know how this channel flew under my radar the past two years but I'm grateful I now have the entire backlog to catch up on. Thank you for your content, its great man.
Glad you've found us! Hope you enjoy the backlog. If you go in order you'll find the episodes sort of build on each other.
@@Patristix I will for sure, please keep ‘em coming!
St.Basil writings are so eloquent and masterful! One of my favorite Father's to read! ☦️
I am not trying to comment too much on youtube but needed to say thank you so much! I feel this video and your video on St. Athanasius were just what I needed to hear. What saints like St. Paul, St. Athanasius, St. Basil, and St. Pope Kyrillos VI did for Christianity is so inspiring. Through the intercessions of the Holy Theotokos St. Mary, may the Holy Spirit continue transfiguring His Orthodox Christians.
❤
Fascinating, I didn't know about his life! Would also love it if you made videos on early Christian theologians such as Tertullian and Origen, apart from the Church Fathers.
Unfortunately Origen was anathematized so it's very unlikely there'll be a video about him.
@@CashFreedman Origen's platonizing was/is a serious cause of issues to the Church. In fact the original concept of a philokalia was created by St. Basil and St. Gregory of Nyssa separating the wheat from the chaff of his writings.
You are doing God's work with your great videos.
I am named after saint Basil and studying his life makes me realise how low I am in terms of spiritual struggle.
I wish i could have at least his courage.
Loved this! O dear Father Basil, pray for us! ❤
🙏🏻
6:35 HEY! I recognise that vasilopita as the one my wife and I made! It tasted magnificent! I am just sad that I didn’t win the coin 😂🤦♂️.
Glad to be a part of your video Stephan, however small of a contribution we can give! May St Basil pray for us 🙏
Thanks Amanda for making it! Wish we lived near enough to eat it.
🔥🔥🔥 love ur program from 🇪🇹
Thank you!
Hey my patron saint!!
St Basil pray for us.
Thank you as this says a lot.
🙏🙏
amazing video as always keep them coming, God Bless!
Saint Basil, The Great, The Heaven Revealer!
☦️☦️☦️
You must, must, must do a video on Basil's younger brother, St. Gregory of Nyssa (The Father of the Fathers). I know, I know... there will be apprehension and caution because St. Gregory was undeniably a universalist (and correct about it, frankly), but he's without a doubt one of the most towering intellects in our tradition's history and one whose righteousness and bravery before the fallen logic of the age may rival even his older brothers as it was he who delivered history's first abolitionist sermon against the backdrop of St. Basil's more pragmatic approach (treat them with love and pastoral care, etc., but not to free them).
The Cappadocians each deserve an episode, honestly, and I'm glad you started with St. Macrina, who was very much St. Gregory's teacher.
I aways know I am in for treat when you post!!
Appreciate that!
Wow enlightening
I never knew that much about st basil
Now I know why my mom bakes in new years a cake with a coin in it lol always wondered about that tradition 😅
Vasilopita!
I really enjoyed that !
Great Video! You should cover origins of many famous hymns. Like Agios o Teos (Trisiagon) or Cherubic Hymn etc.
You said it and you delivered it. Great work as always.
Awesome!
Incroyable ✝️🇨🇵
"Fascinating argumentation, Methodius. In retort, I've went ahead and depicted you as a soyjak."
Godspeed brother, I haven’t watched this but I’ve always kinda had a weird feeling about Basil the Great because I never knew about him that much. But I’m sure this video will change everything.
Basil is a real character! Great man, lots of attitude.
@@Patristixwow didn’t think you would actually respond 😂 but thank you for your response finished the episode and it was amazing. I finally know more, and now know why I was feeling his attitude in his writings on scripture.
I feel he might have been a little intimidating in person! But there's also a touch of humour in his writings and personality
I'm noticing in your videos that there have been saints that have created incredibly important inventions, such as the calendar we use today. Could you make a video that lists them? They don't have to necessarily be reserved to saints.
Telling what Basil did, encouraging others to broaden their minds, its good.
Ill pull on a biblical verse where it says, "We are not unaware of the devices of the Devil". Talk to many ask about this, oh they know, they know. Some may. But, being aware rationalization is used to attack some, others fear, etc. We need to note, Jesus was talking to apostles if I recall. Where they knew. Today its more advanced.
If we call st Nicolas "Santa Claus ", then respectfully, can we call st Basil Santa Sil? 😅
Much love to you all. ✌🏻 and 👖
So is it Basil or Vasil?
Original pronunciation is Vasilios
@@Philotimoman33 Thank you.
