    I was an Eastern Orthodox catechumen who struggled with a lot of these patristic texts showing the papacy and the filioque. And when seeing the amount of mental gymnastics Eastern Orthodox apologists do to get around the clear reading of the patristic texts it reminded me of unitarians trying to wiggle themselves out of the clear readings that shows the deity of Christ. This was one of major reasons that got me to put Orthodoxy aside and become Catholic. Great video btw! 🙏

      Glory to God indeed. I was really talking about the Filioque since its clearly taught by the Western Fathers. Yet many either say that all were heretics or that the Roman Church simply doesn't properly understand what the Fathers taught - which is nonsense. With papal infallibility you still have to deal with Scripture, Ecumenical councils, and the Fathers (such as St. Maximus the Confessor) all teaching it. No forgeries are required to make the Catholic case at all. There's ample positive evidence which Catholics and Orthodox share in common. It simply just needs to be thoroughly looked into honestly.

    The Christians under the geographically and demographically vastly larger Roman Patriarchate were verifiably professing the Filioque for five (5) centuries before the anti-Patriarch Photios used it as an excuse for disobedience to Rome in his politically motivated "Mystagogia" in 869 A.D.. That's five (5) centuries of commemorating and professing obedience to a See which allowed "heresy" (according to the schismatic and heretical "Orthodox" Churches). Photios referred to the Filioque as a "blasphemy" which means he condemns innumerable Church Fathers. I did my Honours Thesis on this matter 40 years ago. I wanted to resolve the matter for myself. The Catholics are right and since then, I have never had occasion to doubt it.

    I’ve studied a lot on Eastern Orthodox claims (I mean A LOT). Not even close to the best of you guys on this area (like you, Erick Ybarra, Michael Lofton, William Albrecht, etc) but I can humbly say I’ve done my homework. And I’ve studied enough even on the history of the Roman Empire of the East (= Byzantine Empire), besides some Greek post-schism theology and Greek patristics. So I tend to affirm shallowness with bits of the usual anti-Catholicism to be found on the Anglophone Internet, plus a sort of political reactionarism, that’s the recipe favoring EO position to get a lot of traction online (mostly among very immature male “enragé” adults). The pursuit of truth won’t lead that way though. I’ve been personally attacked so many times by those mobs online - here on TH-cam, not on Reddit or elsewhere - that it actually made me go deep enough to challenge whomever comes with stones from those paths, and I always did - at least I’m sure that’s what was in my heart - as St Peter says about being ready to give the reasons vindicated in our hope, knowing to explain our faith with solidity. With that being said, the more one studies EO claims, the more one gets convinced of the absolute trueness of the Catholic faith. “And you will know truth, and truth will set you free” (John 8, 32). It’s invariable, I should honestly say.

      The teaching of the assumption of Mary predates the nicean creed.
      It wasn't dogmatically defined until relatively recently, because the church has always taught that silence is a virtue and therefore she ought only speak on what is necessary.
      In recent centuries, speaking on Mary became necessary. It had not prevented so since the council of Ephesus

    To say that the Spirit proceeds from the Father at all and in any capacity is to implicitly say that the Spirit proceeds also from the Son on the same level (though not with the same priority ofc), because there is no paternity without filiation. Unless, of course, one were to suppose that the Father had some secret divinity, or had divinity prior to His Fatherhood -- that He was once not Father... oh what heresy did the filioque crush again?

      Constantinople II allowed for the use of the formula "one incarnate nature of the Word of God" provided it is understood correctly. Canon VIII:
      "If anyone confesses a belief that a union has been made out of the two natures divinity and humanity, or speaks about the one nature of God the Word made flesh, but does not understand these things according to what the fathers have taught, namely that from the divine and human natures a union was made according to subsistence, and that one Christ was formed, and from these expressions tries to introduce one nature or substance made of the deity and human flesh of Christ: let him be anathema. In saying that it was in respect of subsistence that the only-begotten God the Word was united, we are not alleging that there was a confusion made of each of the natures into one another, but rather that each of the two remained what it was, and in this way we understand that the Word was united to human flesh. So there is only one Christ, God and man, the same being consubstantial with the Father in respect of his divinity, and also consubstantial with us in respect of our humanity. Both those who divide or split up the mystery of the divine dispensation of Christ and those who introduce into that mystery some confusion are equally rejected and anathematized by the church of God."

    The attitude of each church toward another says it all. The Catholic Church calls the Orthodox separated brethren. the Catholic Church accepts the Apostolic succession validity of holy mysteries, and the grace within the Orthodox Church. The Orthodox Church says that we are in schism without succession and graceless. This shows the attitude difference between the two churches and the fact that resolution of this situation will not occur because of the orthodox attitude not because of the Catholic attitude. In the Orthodox way of thinking catholics are lost and damned. In the Catholic way of thinking the Orthodox in some ways are mistaken but full of Grace. This seems to be the difference between Western and eastern attitudes. They seem irresolvable to me.

    Hey dwong I have an honest question and would like to hear your thoughts.
    Since V2 and the Popes since then how do we reconcile all of the heresy and apostasy from that council and the heresies those Popes committed? I don’t want to be a Sedevacantist but it seems more appealing. But I also don’t want to be a cringe Michael Lofton cope for the Pope type guy. What’s a logical way to defend the church in its current state?

    • @dwong9289
      @dwong9289  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +10

      I simply reject the idea that V2 and the recent Popes taught heresy. You have to substantiate that claim. Read V2 and the sayings of the Popes with a hermeneutic of continuity not a heremeneutic of rupture, and do so in the most charitable light. I think Lofton does good work, since the Saints unanimously assert that we must interpret others actions in the most charitable light possible, this applies even more to the Pope and the Magisterium.
      Sedevacantism has so many errors and bad fruits, clearly showing it is a false position. There is no visible unity of the Church, their Church lacks the Four Marks, they are usually filled with pride, they have a Protestant notion of the primacy of private interpretation, they reject universal and peaceful acceptance of the Pope, they have like 26 bishops in total, and many of them disagree with each other and would condemn each other. It’s a totally untenable position and denies the indefectability of the Church. If you think a Billion Catholics and all the Bishops were led astray for the last century, you reject the Promises of Christ. So, the only tenable position is that Vatican 2 is a Holy Ecumenical Council.

    For the sake of argument let’s say every one of these Saints quoted in your florilegium actually believed in Florence’s version of the filioque (Spirit’s hypostatic origin from Son).
    Firstly, it’s still not “universal consensus” as your conclusion states. Secondly, Saints and Fathers of the Church can be wrong and uncondemned, especially when they speculate about a theologumenon (which clearly the filioque was for the entire time frame your video quotes from) before the heresy is formally condemned.
    Furthermore, the Spirit’s hypostatic origin from the Son is explicitly denied by your Pope-“Saint” John Paul II (in his ordinary magisterium to which you are bound to submit). So now you get to play Papal Protestant and choose whether Florence or JP2 is right. Have fun with that…

    • @dwong9289
      @dwong9289  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      Firstly, this would be the consensus of the Latin Fathers, and the argument presented in the video would hold (which you have yet to actually address).
      Secondly you are gravely mistaken. The 1995 Filioque document is a non-magisterial document and therefore has 0 binding on one's conscience, and Catholics are free to accept or reject it. Furthermore you are misreading the text as it states the Father is the sole principal cause of the Holy Spirit, not the only cause of the Holy Spirit (big difference!)

    • @dwong9289
      @dwong9289  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Also is your argument really that I am bound to reject the Filioque? That is such an absurd, unsubstantiated position. The Catechism that was compiled under St. John Paul the II says this in CCC 246:
      The Latin tradition of the Creed *confesses that the Spirit "proceeds from the Father and the Son (filioque)". The Council of Florence in 1438 explains: "The Holy Spirit is eternally from Father and Son; He has his nature and subsistence at once (simul) from the Father and the Son. He proceeds eternally from both as from one principle and through one spiration* . . . . And, since the Father has through generation given to the only-begotten Son everything that belongs to the Father, except being Father, the Son has also eternally from the Father, from whom he is eternally born, that the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Son."

      My second argument (third paragraph) is backed up by Vatican I (submit to ordinary magisterium). But for the sake of argument let’s grant your position that it’s up to each Catholic. The 1995 doc contradicts Florence (it explicitly says the Son can NOT be said to be cause of the hypostasis of the Spirit). So if you get to pick and choose- a point that you conceded - that’s ironic given this video defends the Florentine position as a means of vindicating Roman Catholicism, when you admit Roman Catholics can choose to accept or reject the Florentine filioque position.

    I do not think you have clearly showed that the context must be taken as hypostatic. My comment will mostly be addressing what is said from 3:03 to 15:08.
    I noticed you spent a lot of time discussing the context in the creed without discussing the latin/greek terms and language. There is no more reason to believe that it was a hypostatic filioque than an energetic one based on the term "proceeds" being used since
    1. Procedere in Latin can mean either (it actually just means "moving forward").
    2. The Catholic Church denies that the "processio" of the Spirit from the Son is identical to his processio from the Father due to the Father being the truly unoriginate. You even discuss this at the 11:57 mark in your video talking about the distinction within Rome. I can look it up, but it seems Rome makes more distinctions that just the one you mentioned as well. With that in mind, if we were to argue that it is a hypostatic Filioque simply because the term "procedit" describes the relationship from the Father and the Son, then we would have to confess that it it means the Spirit proceeds from two unoriginate beings.
    In other words, how would you argue that that line about the procession of spirit in the Athanasian Creed doesn't support the idea that the Son is also unorginate like the Father? You’d likely refer to other lines in the Creed but could you do that from the “procession of spirit” line? b
    Would your line of reasoning not also be saying "procedit means hypostatic from the unorginate Father as the ultimate source but only secondarily from the Son who is also an aitia but an originate one”?
    It seems to me that any answer I have heard from Catholics knowledgable about Latin and Greek on these questions tend to create a reason for why this okay and it just seem out of context entirely to the language at the time and even by today’s standards as well. It appears ad hoc to me.
    Please feel free to look this up. I’m sure my comment will be unpopular here, but it is worth you and your viewers looking in to.

    • @dwong9289
      @dwong9289  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      The context alone without the Latin term is sufficient for proving it is concerning Hypostatic origin. Is being created or made energetic? No, that is concerning Hypostatic origin. Is being unbegotten energetic? No, that is concerning Hypostatic origin. Is being begotten energetic? No, that is concerning Hypostatic origin. So is procession energetic? No it’s all in the context of Hypostatic origin. Basic interpretive skills is sufficient for proving this is about Hypostatic origin.
      Furthermore the context is about the distinction of Persons and their unity in essence. Clearly Hypostatic procession is the reason for the distinction of Persons and their unity in essence. The energies are not the reason for the Person’s distinctions.

I had never noticed it until I looked it up myself.

But even he has flipped flop is answers to Ubi Petrus just on twitter a month ago in early Sept. 2023 (for anyone searching this).
      Catholics often claim EOs give ad hoc answers about how we interpret the Ath. Creed based on their personal reading of the context, but in reality the context of the pure languages and how words are defined in the Latin and Greek indicate it is really the Catholics giving the ad hoc answers until they can give at least one answer to this simple yet glaring contradiction in the Latin.
      Simply repeating and repeating that the context is enough to know it is hypostatic origin is just unacceptable and appears to be taking the easy way out without looking into the deeper issues of the languages that was originally used during the centuries east and west were drifting away.

    No matter how many text or quotes you try use, there are just as many that contradict them. Whether the Filioque or the Papacy. The early church taught from the first and 3rd councils the creed, and the eighth was confirmed by Rome to anathematize those who put the Filioque into it. And most of the Fathers didn’t say “and from
    The son” they said from the father, through the son. Big difference. Even Christ said in John 15:26 that the spirit proceeds from the Father. It doesn’t get much clearer than that. But that’s not the main point I wanted to make.
    The main point is this. The testament to the true Church that Christ started is in the Saints that it produces. You will never find Saints in the Catholic Church after the 1st millennium that have the wisdom of the Holy Spirit or perform the miracles that Saints in the Orthodox Church do. You just won’t. The closest would be Padre Pio. But that’s one Saint. The Orthodox Church is the church of miracles.

      The Council of Ephesus has St Cyril teaching the Filioque in his 3rd Letter to Nestorius (watch my video The Church Fathers teach the Filioque for evidence). In The Second Council of Constantinople we have Patriarch St Tarasius teaching Hypostatic per Filium (something anathematized by your Council of Blachernae.) So the consensus of the Fathers and the Ecumenical Councils teach the Filioque.
      Furthermore we affirm John 15:26. No one denies the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father. St. Augustine in Tractate 99 asserts this also implies that the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Son. Furthermore, John 16:13-15 shows the Holy Spirit receives knowledge and therefore essence from the Son (see my video Catholics vs. Orthodox: The Filioque).
      We have tons of miracle workers. Look up St Charbel, St Francis of Assisi, Blessed Solanus Casey. They have hundreds of proven miracles. So your point is completely wrong.
      Furthermore we have confirmed Marian Apparitions. Look up Our Lady of Guadalupe. The Tilma is supernatural and has led to millions of conversions. Tell me where Our Lady has done a miracle for the EO church that led to millions of conversions, I am waiting. Look up Our Lady of Fatima miracle of the Sun, etc. Our Lady interceded and got God to perform a miracle attested by tens of thousands of people. We also have scientifically proven Eucharistic miracles.
      Furthermore we alone possess the four marks of the Church, hence we inherited the name “The Catholic Church”, whereas you inherited the local regional name of “the Eastern Orthodox Church”. Become Catholic, as Vatican 2 asserts “Whosoever, therefore, knowing that the Catholic Church was made necessary by Christ, would refuse to enter or remain in it, could not be saved”

    Why be a Dyophysite Roman when you can be a Miaphysite Orthodox?
    I have to laugh at Catholics and EOs fighting each other. It's literally Rome fighting Rome.
    Which Catholic do you want us to be? The Catholic that existed from 33AD to the 1960s? Or the church after the council? Because they're literally two different religions.
