Wo bro

This was very interesting, and helpful, and confuzing. I'm still trying to grasp the relation between logoi and energies. You say the Father and Son are eternally "in conversation" through the energies, and St. Gregory Palamas says in the Second Apdotic Treatise on the Procession of the Holy Spirit that Christ, in breathing on the disciples, manifested the gifts of the Spirit and not the Spirit Himself. But elsewhere He (and other fathers, of course) say that the Spirit's gifts are manifestations of Christ in some way, as is implied in "the Spirit of adoption" and "the Spirit of Wisdom". But ALSO also St. Maximos says that the Logos is the many logoi, and that One Logos goes out into particular being in the logoi. What is the relationship between logoi and energies? Are the logoi proper to the whole Trinity because the Logos is the full expression and 'image' of the Father, and the logoi are "portions" of the Logos, and so are "portions" of the Father as well, and because the Spirit is the Son's, and dwells in Him, the logoi are His also to manifest? I have no idea. Theres something I'm missing here. Also thank you for your videos, your series on Catholicism almost convinced me of Orthodoxy overnight

Seraphim is there any way you can do a reel addressing the heresy that is Nestorianism in regards to Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel? I feel a lot of people are being lead astray and it would be comforting to hear from such a prominent figure in the Orthodox world like yourself. Lord have Mercy on him 🙏☦️

Does anyone see a relationship between the Divine Energies and Angels as God's messengers? I feel like I can kind of see that connection in the Dionysus' Celestial Hierarchy and maybe something about how Abraham and Lot interact with the Two Angels as an understanding of how to interact with God's Energies but I'm scrambling a little

So, is it safe to say that the energies of God, which are God, is the Holy Spirit, who processes from the Father? If his energies are God, that would explain why the Holy Spirit is refered to as both a He and and It in scripture, as both power and person. If the energy of God isnt God, then I have a hard time understanding how there can be a separate eternal thing that exists alongside God. But if the energy is the Holy Spirit, and we can participate in God through the Spirit, then that makes Him a procession of the essence of God, which is the Father, which no man has or can see...thanks

You seem to be in a hurry in these videos.
