This episode explores the differing views on the Virgin Mary's sinlessness between Western and Eastern Christian traditions.
Was the Virgin Mary sinless? While the Western debate often pits Catholic dogma against Protestant literalism, the ancient Christian East offers a completely different paradigm. In this episode, we explore how the Eastern Church Fathers view Mary’s unique holiness without the Western legal concepts of merit and original sin, and how the theology of the Dormition proves she still required Christ as her Savior. ============= Please support the East West series : http://theeastwestseries.com/ All the links : The Theological Letters Substack: https://nathanajacobs.substack.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thenathanjacobspodcast X: https://x.com/NathanJacobsPod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nathanandrewjacobs Academia: https://cabasilasinstitute.academia.edu/NathanJacobs Listen and please review the podcast elsewhere : Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-nathan-jacobs-podcast Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0hSskUtCwDT40uFbqTk3QS Related Episodes & Material Mentioned : Episode 30 The Virgin Mary Grinch Slayer: https://youtu.be/bTHlv06p9U8?si=43KLlOYXc2QjAVE4 Episode 33: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of Story Telling…
