It doesn’t matter if you are Protestant, you also need to know the truth you’re looking for. You are Christian which means you’re potentially Catholic.
We are one family in Christ rooted in the Lord Jesus. He died for us. We live for Him. There is only one church. All the divisions, Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, various Protestant divisions, they do not stand before God. He tore down the dividing wall. Now there is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father who is above all and through all and in all. May we all turn to Him that we might know Him and be fully known by Him. He will make our paths straight. Much love to all the family of God. May we all forsake all that we might gain Christ and be found in Him.@@xiomarablanco5598
Thumbs up from Great Britain - you're off to a fantastic start. Short, high quality Orthodox videos is something UA-cam's been lacking. Well-edited, informative and bite-sized in a sea of "three hours of a guy talking to his webcam in front of a bookcase" videos.
Thank you SO much for the support! It means a lot to hear that! There are some great long-form lectures on UA-cam, and they might get referenced for people wanting deeper research, but we'll be making these bite-size videos weekly. Short and simple. Thanks for subscribing!
Greetings and salutations! From all the way in Phoenix AZ 🌵 Yes....i really do admire this man of God!... Recently heard of him about 8 months ago watching the EWTCN Catholic channel... I'm Pentecostal but yeah what can i say about somebody who is so devoted to God like him?... Hope to God i can have half of this man's dedication to Jesus Christ when the chips are down because to tell you the truth I don't believe i posses a sliver... I'm glad that we're still talking about his legacy! And ultimately the goodness of God through Jesus Christ....the GREATEST MAN....the God Man!... HALLELUJAH....👏👏👏👏👏👏
I love this! Then the music really adds to your commentary. As one who is growing (and becoming a Coptic Orthodox Christian), this is really helpful to me. ☦️🙏🏿
Patristix may be the best newer channel on UA-cam for Christianity, i feel dumb for not knowing about 90% of this information and every episode is a treat. just great presentation, and great nuggets of wisdom in every post
Greetings from Ireland🇨🇮 Wonderful short testimony on this amazing Saint🙏 He has to be the very top role model for our times when the heresy of modernism is rampant and the pressure is on to 6:30 to BS👊✅ Pray that all of us will have the faithfulness of St. Atanasius🙏
I agree. I hope I would devoutly stand in the love of Christ (Fully Man: Fully God) - beautifully produced and I extend my gratitude for your production.
I'm similar! I need to set aside time and really get into the zone to watch and process long-form content! There's some great stuff out there but sometimes we need short bits too. Thank you for watching, Matt
I love the way and the enthusiasm you speak, Stephan! I am usually deal with the topics of church history from the intellectual/philosophical point of view - it is a refreshment to see it in a more 'artistic' way with deep personal emotions (with a professional film editing and production).
Let's not forget that New Testament as it is today was formulated by him. There were other listings from other bishops which sometimes included the unrecognized books (Gospel of Nicodemus, Gospel of Thomas etc), but as the NT is ordered now (The Four Gospels, followed by Acts, and the Epistles) was done by St. Athanasius. Even MORE of a Christian hero than stated here. Seriously, his contribution to the faith cannot be understated.
That quote is awesome. It's even relevant today. The world needs that kind of conviction and courage today. These videos are awesome. Small digestible bits are the best. Much obliged.
Wow - Well done brother. The artistry and presentation (and the content but that goes without saying - St Athanasius, pray for us) is very well done. Definitely got my sub.
I really love your videos, especially on the early Church Fathers. This was not covered in my early Catholic education. Love to all my Catholic and Orthodox brothers and sisters. Be strong in Christ.
Thank you for introducing us to him, surely a man for our time in this dark age of “relative truth”. Last night I ordered your bag with his logo just because his statement resonated so for me. Thanks for the book link too, I’m off to read …
Excellent video! Concise, clear easy to understand. I’d love to hear from you about all the Church Fathers, who were their mentors were, who are they disciple of, their work and legacy. They are the ones that knew how to defend our Lords’ teaching out of love for Him and his Church. Thank you for sharing your input with us. We all need to be informed and formed about our Catholic Faith and his valuable members who are the ones who sustains the Church. We need to value the treasure of our beloved Catholic Church. Once we know her better, we’ll love her and serve her better as these heroes and saints did. 🙏♥️🙏
Amazing videos! Well done! I can now share with my friends who are interested in Orthodoxy some high quality videos that are interesting and easy to understand
If Australians stand against the fact that the most delicious honey comes from the bees collecting their treasures in the fields and forest next to my home village, I stand against all bees of Australia. Despite the fact that it might end up very painful... ;-) Thanks for spotting the light on this great personality with such enthusiasm!
You have great honey near you? We need a honey competition. We also have really nice flowers/trees here and the honey comes from it and is just 👌 And thanks for watching! He really is a great personality. I really love Athanasius so it was easy making a video about him!
Love LOVE the new channel, and really wish you well in growing this beautiful channel. I know already that eventually you're going to become so big and popular that you won't be able to read/respond to people's comments after a certain point, so just throwing it out now that I'm happy I get to be one of your early subscribers to what will eventually become one of the most premier channels of Theology and Christian history on UA-cam. Good luck, brother! I'll be rooting for you and plugging your channel whenever I can 💪
@@Patristix i just started reading On the Incarnation and I find myself rooting for the brother and clapping at good points like I'm watching a spirts game haha
Congratulations for these videos! I think that a lot of schismatics will return to orthodoxy after these videos! I would like to translate some of them in romanian. If you have someone to translate we are waiting to send them. Christ is Risen!
I have this book. Also, in my two volume set of The Paradise of the Holy Fathers published by St Shenouda (Coptic) Monastery has The Life of St. Anthony (of Egypt) by Athanasius.
Thank you brother! Your lectures are beautiful. Can you make videos about the Alexandrian school and school in Antioch? It would be useful for early christian history. I love the allegorical hermeneutics of Saint Gregory of Nyssa. It might be useful to explain why there were two schools and how they influenced today's church in Bible interpretation and exegesis.
on the incarnation was the first book i ever read of early church fathers also lol they didnt even dispute if demons existed or inhabiated people. they debated how is it so that they only flee in the name of Jesus Christ.
There's a link in the bio to a free e-book. Otherwise the book is generally called "On the Incarnation" by Saint Athanasius of Alexandria and can be found in many places!
My wife and I are going to be blessed with having a son next month. Now I need to explain to my wife that his middle name will need to be Athanasius. :)
I'm Glad That Saint Athanasius of Alexandria is A Recognized Saint In The Tier One and Only, Holy, Eastern Orthodox Catholic and Apostolic Orthodox Christian ☦️ ⛪️.
The Place he stayed in in the desert now is a monastery in my town ❤
That's amazing!
@@Patristix I want to ask: How do you mention Saint Anthony without also using his title of the founder of monasticism?
St. Athanasius was a deacon at the Council of Nicea .. yet another testament to his courage and conviction
As a Protestant, I love these videos!!! I hope to see your channel grow! The editing, the vibes of the room you’re in, the music, such a good video :)
Thanks a lot! We have lots more to come. Glad you're liking the vibe. Brick walls and vintage feels always hit just right 👌
Cool, I’m enjoying this channel too..🙏🏽❤️🩹

“Though none go with me, still I will follow” Athanasius “Contra Mundum” hero of the church! May we follow in his example!
I love this video in St. Athanasius of Alexandria, my patron Saint!! O Holy and Venerable Hierarch Athanasius of Alexandria, pray for us sinners!!
How Athanasius’s saying rings true today… “if the world 🌎 is against truth; then I am against the world”. 🌎 🙏🏻😇
I love this! Then the music really adds to your commentary. As one who is growing (and becoming a Coptic Orthodox Christian), this is really helpful to me. ☦️🙏🏿
May God continue to bless your journey!
"Are we prepared to be the only ones?" - what a profound question.
Athanasius is among the most excellent Church Fathers. I like the way he expresses his theology.
Patristix may be the best newer channel on UA-cam for Christianity, i feel dumb for not knowing about 90% of this information and every episode is a treat. just great presentation, and great nuggets of wisdom in every post
God bless from Gold Coast Australia.
I had no idea about Athanasius and now I do. Thank you.
So glad to make the introduction! He's a really great person to know
This was also my first book from one of the Early Church Fathers. I absolutely love it and will be reading through it again shortly!
It's really good!
There's a free e-book link in the video description if you need it
Greetings from Ireland🇨🇮

Great job I can share these with my wife who struggles with long form content
I'm similar! I need to set aside time and really get into the zone to watch and process long-form content! There's some great stuff out there but sometimes we need short bits too. Thank you for watching, Matt
I always speed up long YT videos to 1.75x, cuts the viewing time by, well, 1.75 times!
What an engaging and inspiring video!
Your channel is so excellent, I was raised without christ and am an aspiring convert to orthodoxy. Your videos are extremely helpful
I love the way and the enthusiasm you speak, Stephan!
I am usually deal with the topics of church history from the intellectual/philosophical point of view - it is a refreshment to see it in a more 'artistic' way with deep personal emotions (with a professional film editing and production).

He mentions that in the video
That quote is awesome. It's even relevant today. The world needs that kind of conviction and courage today. These videos are awesome. Small digestible bits are the best. Much obliged.
Thank you for watching! And yes, Athanasius is definitely a saint for today
If we are going to praise Athanasius,we will praise virtue
Love from orthodox Georgia❤🇬🇪 I would be grateful if you make a video about Georgian saints❤
Wow - Well done brother. The artistry and presentation (and the content but that goes without saying - St Athanasius, pray for us) is very well done. Definitely got my sub.
Thank you for the kind words and support!
Loved hearing about this Early Church Father. Both he and Irenaeus have had a great impact on my life. I hope you cover Irenaeus at some point also. 😊
Glad to hear! And yes, Irenaeus deserves an episode for sure, though he'll be getting some mentions in other episodes before that
Criminally underrated channel
He also wrote Life of Anthony the Great which is one of the best early Christian books from the genre of biography.
Thank you! I just found this channel this week and it's quickly becoming one of my favorites!
I really love your videos, especially on the early Church Fathers. This was not covered in my early Catholic education. Love to all my Catholic and Orthodox brothers and sisters. Be strong in Christ.
I'm an evangelical protestant and I absolutely LOVE your videos! Keep up the great work!
Awesome presentation brov...really informative ... I just found a new saint to love...Thank you
Athanasius is really great! There's a link in the description to a free copy of his book if you want it!

It is an EXCELLENT work
This is great video and material ❤
God bless you laddie❤
Спаси Христос☦
Your channel is wonderful! Thank you for posting, I share your videos, too. God Bless ☦️🙏🏻
Amazing videos! Well done! I can now share with my friends who are interested in Orthodoxy some high quality videos that are interesting and easy to understand
Would love to see more videos on saints done in this format
They're going to come!
I first “met” Athanasius” in the novel,”The Beacon at Alexandria.” Great story, great man.
If Australians stand against the fact that the most delicious honey comes from the bees collecting their treasures in the fields and forest next to my home village, I stand against all bees of Australia. Despite the fact that it might end up very painful... ;-)

Wow! I feel very encouraged! Thank you so much for the kind words and support! Lots more to come to the channel...
Ive heard the name so many times and I had no idea. Thx
Thx guys. Kyrie Iesu Christe Eleison Me. 💖🙏➕
I'm ordering the book! thank you! Earl Grey, my favourite! BTW, I'm coming to you from Athens Greece
God bless!
And yes Early Grey is a reliably nice tea
Beautiful
Thank you for the passion in this video. I'm off to read On the Incarnation
Hope you enjoy the read! It feels like an honour to read a book so ancient and valuable in our faith!

Many thanks!
Amazing job. Watched all 3, all gteat. Can you do something about '' Rum Orthodox ''
Perhaps! There's a LOT we can cover on here so stay tuned
@@Patristix oh I definitely will, can't wait
If my cousin was born before me and got the name Peter instead of me, i was going to be called Athanasius.
Amazing thanks.
As a Latter-day Saint I named my youngest son Julian Athanasius. There is an irony in this for the theologically savvy.
But the LDS Church deny the trinity? And Athanasius agreed with it 🤷🏾♂️
@@ChrisG-m8b exactly
❤❤❤❤❤
on the incarnation was the first book i ever read of early church fathers also lol they didnt even dispute if demons existed or inhabiated people. they debated how is it so that they only flee in the name of Jesus Christ.
Excellent video! What's the track you used in the second half of the video? It's perfectly matches the tone for this!
Please do an Anthony the Great video
Noted.
Love your channel but the music competes so loudly that it is hard to hear your words. Please turn the music down. Thank you.
New Sub. ❤
Can you please share the book I want to buy it
There's a link in the bio to a free e-book. Otherwise the book is generally called "On the Incarnation" by Saint Athanasius of Alexandria and can be found in many places!
Legacy-
My wife and I are going to be blessed with having a son next month. Now I need to explain to my wife that his middle name will need to be Athanasius. :)
Sounds like a good plan ;) Good luck convincing your wife, and congratulations to you both!
I imagine Athanasius would greet you in Heaven with a big smile, a fellow defender of the faith and brother In spirit. Well done, bless you.
Who else is here from Ruslan’s channel?
Yeah that last interview 😂
Arianism, more popularly known today as Jehovah's Witnesses. Still heresy.
As above so below if you want the universe… you have to start from ground up… underwater ground… for the next millennium
God became man so many could become like God
Yeah... but 1 thing ill have to correct you on my man, and this could be a salvation issue....
Best honey comes from New Zealand, not Australia 👍
This is one of our favourite comments we've had. We're not even going to argue really, we've had some amazing honey from New Zealand too.
I'm Glad That Saint Athanasius of Alexandria is A Recognized Saint In The Tier One and Only, Holy, Eastern Orthodox Catholic and Apostolic Orthodox Christian ☦️ ⛪️.
Athanasius is one of 35 Doctors of the Catholic Church.
Sadly the video to the little documentary on Athanasius cannot be found anymore
Is there another one? ¿ⓧ_ⓧﮌ
Oh no! That is a shame! I shall have to find some new links. It's a pity because that one was really good. Thanks for pointing out!
