Cdero defends himself

8:40 PM | Posted by Jnorm | | Edit Post
Cdero, was recently banned from a protestant christian(mostly Calvinist) rap forum I post on alot. He wasn't givin the chance to defend himself against the accusations, so he defended himself on his blog.

This is a little of what he had to say:

"Have you ever had people turn on you simply because of your theological convictions? For the past 4 years I have abandoned the cause of indoctrinating people with Reform Theology by replacing it with educating people about the weaknesses of Reform Theology and the myriad of valid Biblical interpretations that get ignored by fundamental Christians. Well, some people hate it! The same people who praised me for promoting Reform Dogma are now burning me at the stake of slander declaring me a heretic yet never actually indicating what exactly is heretical about my beliefs. For years I have participated on a online discussion operating under the same zeal, passion, and love not only for truth (Jesus Christ) but also respecting the art of debating ( commitment to logic and devoted to sticking to the issues and not attacking the person). Today, things have not changed much except my theological convictions and Bible knowledge.

As I said, some people hate the “new me” not because I have abandoned truth, but because I have abandoned their movement-Reform Theology at all cost.

In recent months I have been the target of slander, ridicule, vicious judgements, and nasty stigmas. I was eventually banned from the forum I mentioned above for my theological convictions and since then, all hell has broke loose.

I regret using my blog to defend myself against petty drama but I feel that it is only right that I let those from the forum in which I was banned from hear my side of the story (a post was put up after I was banned accusing me of wrong doing). It is distasteful to ban me and then post accusations knowing that it will be unchallenged.

The following is my defense against such vicious slander:

Since I was banned from HCR, this is the only way I can defend myself.

Dear HCR Members and visitors,

If accusations are going to me made about me on a forum then it is only right for me to respond so that you can get another perspective on things."

Apocalypse [audio CDs] by Ft Thomas Hopko

1:48 PM | Posted by Jnorm | | Edit Post

As seen from St Vladimir's seminary Press's website:




"The Book of Revelation within Orthodox Christian Tradition

Retreat lectures on compact disk
4-CD Set

These lectures offer a fresh approach to reading the Book of Revelation and understanding its complex messages. While Fr Hopko notes that “everything about the Apocalypse is controversial—not only in modern scholarship but also in church history,” he grounds the place of this cryptic writing within the context of ongoing life in the Orthodox Church. In particular, he draws attention to the symbols and words originating in the Hebrew scriptures and demonstrates that the Book of Revelation not only has inspired the Liturgy of the Church but also has been inspired by it. Fr Hopko transforms the typical, modern exegesis of this biblical text from one of literal fundamentalism and futuristic prophecy to one of experiencing eternal life, here and now, in the worship of the Church.

Apocalypse: The Book of Revelation within Orthodox Christian Tradition
CD 1: Historical Context
CD 2: Signs and Symbols
CD 3: Apocalyptic Images
CD 4: The Last Days and Redemption

The Speaker: Protopresbyter Thomas Hopko is Dean Emeritus of St Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary and a world-renowned lecturer."

Orthodox and Wesleyan Scriptural Understanding and Practice

1:39 PM | Posted by Jnorm | | Edit Post

As seen from St Vladimir's Seminary press's website:




"These essays from the "Second Consultation on Orthodox and Wesleyan Spirituality" address scriptural authority and interpretation in the Orthodox and Wesleyan traditions. Rooted within their respective faith communities, the authors avoid false convergences but acknowledge viable commonalities, thus setting an innovative tone for ecumenical study and dialogue.

The four main sections-Orthodox Scriptural Understanding and Practice,Mutual Learning between Orthodox and Methodists,Wesleyan Scriptural Understanding and Practice, and Liturgy and Scriptural Interpretation-represent selected presentations from the "Second Consultation on Orthodox and Wesleyan Spirituality" held at Trinity College, June 16-20, 2000, in Bristol, UK, and from the "Third Consultation" convened at the Orthodox Spiritual Academy in Crete, Greece, August 1-7, 2002, under the sponsorship of the General Board of Global Ministries of The United Methodist Church and the faculty of St Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary.

The Contributors: Outstanding scholars from the Orthodox tradition, such as John McGuckin, Thomas Hopko, Elizabeth Theokritoff, Petros Vassiliadis, Theodore Stylianopoulos, Dimitar Kirov, Tamara Grdzelidze, and Nicholas Lossky engage their peers from the Wesleyan tradition, Geoffrey Wainwright, Grant Sperry White, Frances Young, Karen Westerfield Tucker, James Charlesworth, Ted Campbell, Kenneth Carveley, George Mulrain, Maxine Walker, and Timothy L. Bryan. The result is ecumenical dialogue at its finest."
