All this is new to me, sort of new. In 1978 I gave some kittens who had been born in the woods behind the place where I was living to some people who gave me a pamphlet about baptizing in the name of Jesus. But from then until now, I have no more contact.
In the rush of prose, I want to make sure I'm getting the main ideas. (1) Doctrine of Trinity is man-made and carnal? (2)Would you agree with the article that the Divine "aspect""part""whatchamacallit" or Jesus was not in Him when he was a fetus, but was sort of added at birth? (3)You understand Trinitarians and those who endorse the Chalcedonian definition as saying that somehow more God was created or added somehow in the process of what we call Incarnation?
Thanks. I'm not waiting to pounce. This is a new line of country for me and I want to look around.
Tax-chick's question, way back in post #10, I think arose because "we" would say that whatever was divine about that Baby was divine from the instant of His conception, not added at birth, as Mr Reckart seemed to say. The manifestation and/or incarnation is, to us, distinct from the nativity, which is a part of the entire incarnation, ah, phenomenon.
Personally, I think debating the Trinity will make us all crazy in a heart beat.
I get my bandages changed today! Let the dancing in the streets begin! YAY! I got to leave the house and go to Church yesterday. Do you know? The entire world managed to survive pretty well without my seeing it for 6 days. I think there are parts of it that didn't even miss me! Wonders never cease!
Congratulations on your recovery.
Glad the feets are better.
Oh happy day, kuloo kalae! I talked to the icon writer...she doesn't have an icon of St. Michael on hand, she said if you needed one quickly she could put a copy of one that she has done in the past on high quality card stock....I don't know if that's quite what you had in mind. I still would like to show you the one I have but I am apparently too liberally educated and have no useful knowledge whatsoever. So I will have to wait for hubby to upload the picture for me....I am sure it will be a major letdown after all this build up.
**YAY! I got to leave the house and go to Church yesterday.**
Glad you were able to get out and curb the cabin fever! LOL!

There goes pride down the drain, huh?
