23:23 Gospel “Evangelion” it is not a book. There are writings that came to be called Gospels. The Gospel according to John never used the term Gospel. 24:14 Gospel means “Good News.” “Glad Tidings.” 24:27 However, we should know, Evangelion means a particular Good News. 25:08 Angelos-Ev, The Good News proclaiming That Our King, God, Has Been Victorious In Battle Against All His Enemies. 25:42 Yeshua, Savior, Victor, Healer. 26:02 The Good News that God Conquered, He Emerges Victorious.

New Calender , subject to western colonialization , has people like Hopko denigrate tradition and legacy of Byzantium... A cultural bias point of view. Hopko Portrays a Neo Gnostic point of that Byzantium Resolve to safeguard the Empire and orthodoxy was Unchristian... when he defaces a ontological and eschatological reality of how the lord works in history to preserve his chosen people against heathens and barbarians that were prophesized to bring about the antichrist kingdoms . He disrespects the tradition of Holy mother Mary materialising numerous times to protect the holy city from the barbarians ... and the Romans knew the idfference between the eternal kingdom and material one... but in trying to strive for heaven on earth and the living icon transfigured in living present, Byzantium aspired to mirro the everlasting kingdom... otherwise the kingdom would portray and emanate a gnostic protestant outlook that would perceive that people could not become saints or that one can celebrate beauty, form and symmetry that the lord transfigured in nature..... Hopko is a typical Anglophile that raises Romans and Constantine as the corrupters of orthodoxy and totally distorts and negates the firm role Byzantium had in preserving the faith against heretics and barbarians...

Yes, today I am a Buddhist since I hold Buddha as my personal ideal. The Buddhists do not believe in God as the ultimate reality. Yes, there are gods. But man is considered to be the highest since he or she can achieve enlightenment and end the continuation of reincarnation and Karma. The Gods can not. I was an atheist until I was 33 years of age. At age 5 I refused to believe in God because no one could tell me who made god. And besides I learned that God cursed man with the knowledge of good and evil because Adam and Eve ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. To have the knowledge of good and evil, seemed like a good thing. And I could not find anyone who could tell me why the knowledge of good and evil was a bad ting. And it seemed to me that God would certainly want us know good and evil. Actually I learned in Buddhism that all suffering has to do with our knowledge of good and evil. It is the most profound teaching when really understood. For everything good that happens to us, we are happy. And when anything bad happens to use we are unhappy. If we are happy it's because mostly good is happening. If we are miserable, it's because mostly bad is happening. I cover all this in my Book, Owner's manual for the human mind. You can get it free on my website, DougRemington.Com It's a book on how to kill all emotional pain immediately. It's a Buddhist book but it doesn't matter what God you believe in. It works easily for all. It involves only spiritual practice common to all religions.

I can't stand when people try to deny same authorship from one book to another, claiming different vocabulary, contents, style, etc. Of course those things are going to be different, especially when the different volumes that have been written and are being reviewed are distinct, very different literary genres. Of course Revelation doesn't read the same way as the Gospel of John-it wasn't intended to. It's Jewish apocalyptic literature, for crying out loud, and fits ever so nicely into that (its proper literary) category. The Gospel, though, is precisely that: a gospel, _not_ an apocalypse.
@infowolf14 жыл бұрын
sure Revelation is about what Fr. Hopko says on a spiritual sense, but there is a literal sense to all Scripture also. Orthodoxy doesn't spiritualize everything away. Jesus did't say when the abomination of desolation stading in the TEMPLE but in THE HOLY PLACE, the location of where the Holy of Holies was in the Temple on the Temple Mount is known. rebuilt temple or not, all the antichrist would have to do is stand where that was, and its location on the Temple Mount is known. Nero was only suggested as the antichrist in 1831 or something like that. I think that if this were a legitimate interpretationm, church fathers would have viewed it this way already. Nero was only a prefiguring of the antichrist. Fr. Hopkpo and others have been influenced by non Orthodox sources some of whom have insight on Scripture and history, some do not.

There is a second coming but it is not tied to the others.

The prophecy of Daniel is about the Temple and Holy People, which both ended in 70AD. The Olivet discourse is about the end of the temple AND THEN His return, two different topics. Jesus splits the two by adding that after the Great tribulation the Age of the Gentile would need to be fulfilled to be completed. THEN the sun and moon would darken, etc etc (the prophecy of Joel) and He would return. A lot has already taken place, not all. Futurists are completely anti-Bible and just as well full Preterists suffer the same. The Age of the Gentile has yet to be fulfilled, which is why the courtyard is given to the Gentiles in Revelation but not the temple, because the temple was destroyed (in 70AD) and made desolate (which Jesus did in Matthew 23) thus completing the prophecy of Daniel.
