- The next episode of the Credo Alliance is out but this time we caught it on video. Credo Fellows John Fesko, Fred Sanders, and Scott Swain join Matthew Barrett to discuss the Holy Spirit and the eternal spiration of the Holy Spirit. They explore the historical and theological background of the Nicene Creed, and the implications of the Holy Spirit's procession from the Father and the Son. Additionally, they address the Filioque debate, highlighting both Eastern and Western perspectives, and emphasize the importance of securing the Spirit's personhood in relation to the Father and the Son. In doing so, the come together to contemplate a great mystery: how eternal spiration is distinct from eternal generation, examining the nuances within the Classical theological tradition. Throughout their conversation, these Credo Fellows navigate theological and biblical complexities, seeking to establish a clear understanding of the Holy Spirit's personhood and procession within the Trinity.
Thank you! Very helpful.
Helpful, thanks
This discussion helps us to have true knowledge of God which leads to true worship of God.
Keep up the good work brothers! Helpful indeed is a discussion on something other than the outwardly obvious works of the Holy Spirit, a robust scriptural and historical understanding of the Essence and Person of the Holy Spirit should help us discern what is or what is not a true “word” from or “gift” of the Holy Spirit. Scripture is we could say, God breathed, and holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. Therefore any “word” from or “gift” of the Holy Spirit can never look or sound different than what is revealed in scripture. This helps us greatly to weed through the sometimes subjective claims about the “words” from or “gifts” of the Holy Spirit.
Great stuff. Thank you! When will the discussion on Aquinas be released?
