How the FATHERS approached Science? by Fr. Gabriel Wissa

About this sermon

How FATHERS approached Science? In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit; One God, Amen. Today, we continue our exploration on the topic of Christianity and science. We have tackled so far in this series how a Christian should approach science. We have also discussed the Big Bang theory and how to approach the first chapter of Genesis. In the last two videos on Genesis 1, we have explored a recent Ancient Near Eastern approach to the text. Therefore, some have wondered how this interpretation fits with the Church Fathers’ understanding of Genesis 1. Are these 2 approaches compatible or not? To answer this, we have to do more than proof-texting the fathers. We truly must understand the background and the mind of the fathers. We have to comprehend their methodology and imitate it. And at all costs, we must avoid randomly quoting them. Since this is an extension of our discussion on Genesis 1, we will naturally use St. Basil’s Hexameron—a magnificent work on the first 6 days of creation. #CopticOrthodoxAnswers #COA #AA SUBSCRIBE TO COA! https://www.youtube.com/copticorthodo...
