Fr. Peter Heers
About this episode

H. Sinlessness
I. The Authority to Forgive Sins

Come and sit at the feet of the professors of the Desert, those initiated into the Mystery. They will guide us through the entirety of the Economy of Salvation, from the pre-existence of the Logos, to His Revelation and Incarnation, and His Elevation and Session at the Right Hand of the Father.

Examining the book "Τὸ Mυστήριο τοῦ Χριστοῦ" ("The Mystery of Christ"), written by the Cell of the Resurrection on Mount Athos, this lecture series aims to bring the Athonite catechism to English speakers for the first time.
