An Interview with Dr. Tony Burke If the Secret Gospel of Mark turns out to be authentic, it could provide important insights into early Christian thought and practices. Popular theory claims it is mere forgery, however, created and circulated due to pro-homosexual motives. Professor Tony Burke explains the origin of the text, its content, the basis for the doubt, and the reasons for his own support of the theory of authenticity. He sees a more mystical interpretation than an erotic one. Dr. Tony Burke is a Professor in the Department of the Humanities at York University in Toronto, where he focuses on the study of Christian biographical literature of the second century, children and the family in Roman antiquity, and extracanonical Jewish and Christian writings. His special interest is the Infancy Gospel of Thomas, and hs book, The Infancy Gospel of Thomas in the Syriac Tradition won the 2018 Frank W. Beare Award for outstanding book in the area of Christian Origins. Tony is the co-founder of the North American Society for the Study of Christian Apocryphal Literature (NASSCAL), and he is editor of Volumes 1, 2, and 3 of the series New Testament Apocrypha: More Noncanonical Scriptures. It is a collection of little-known and never-before-published texts in English translation.

In our third season of Secular Christ with Sean J. McGrath we go searching for the seeds of Secular Christianity. The series will go live in early 2024.

Hello and welcome to Giants of the Faith, the podcast where we explore some of the great figures in Christian history. This is episode 62. I'm your host, Robert Daniels, and today we're going way back to look at the life of Clement of Alexandria, one of the first Christian philosophers and teachers of the church. As with many early fathers, details of Clement's life are scarce but I will do the best I can with what we have.RESOURCESChristianity Today: https://www.christianitytoday.com/history/people/evangelistsandapologists/clement-of-alexandria.htmlDictionary of African Christian Biography: https://dacb.org/stories/egypt/clement-of-alex/Got Questions: https://www.gotquestions.org/Clement-of-Alexandria.htmlChristian History Institute: https://christianhistoryinstitute.org/magazine/article/clement-of-alexandria-rich-personEarly Christian Writings: https://www.earlychristianwritings.com/

Who was Clement of Alexandria? What impact did Clement of Alexandria have on the early history of Christianity?

This is part 7 of the Early Church History class. Philo of Alexandria was the most well-known representative of Hellenistic Judaism in the first century. His many books combine Platonism with scripture via allegory--a daring project that had a massive influence on Christian thinkers. Clement of Alexandria followed in Philo's footsteps a century later, doing for the Christian scriptures what Philo had done for the Jewish bible. In addition to covering these two we'll take a couple of detours to learn about the city of Alexandria as well as a few of Plato's important ideas. Although overlooked today in most discussions of the history of Christology, Philo and Clement lay the foundations upon which Origen, the Cappodocians, and Augustine would build generations later.

(Allegory of the Cave) A craftsman created our world based on the pattern of the eternal realm. (Timaeus) Our souls are immortal and will escape our bodies at death, enabling us to perceive the eternal, unchanging realm. (Phaedo) applied allegorical interpretation method to the Old Testament (LXX) Logos God's organ to create and govern universe second place next to God God is the Father and wisdom [Sophia] is the mother of the Word [Logos] Clement of Alexandria (AD 150 – 215) grew up non-Christians traditional religion mystery religion schools of philosophy found Pantaenus to teach him books Protrepticus (Exhortation to Greeks) c. 195 Paedagogus (Tutor or Educator) c. 198 Stromata (Miscellanies) c. 203 Who Is the Rich Man Who Will Be Saved? beliefs heavily influenced by Plato and Philo Ideal Christian is “the gnostic”; try to “out gnostic” the Gnostics and take the label back. concerned about the whole Christian life, not just beliefs seeking pleasure is sin Wine is ok in strict moderation. Laughter should be controlled. esotericism (especially in the Stromata) Christology God is the unknowable, supreme, unbegotten one. The Son “is nearest to him who is alone the Almighty One”. The Logos is chief among God's saints who, like us, worships God. “Thus the idea of the Logos is the centre of Clement's theological system and of all his religious thinking. However, the supreme idea in Christian thought is not the idea of the Logos but the idea of God.”[1] legacy set the precedent for combining Platonism with the Bible through the use of allegory, a strategy that came to dominate for centuries became the teacher of Origen who, as we'll see in our next session, was the most influential Christian theologian of the third century was regarded as a saint by Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches, but then they changed their minds Review Alexandria, Egypt was a major metropolis from which not only grain but philosophical ideas spread to the Mediterranean world. Philo was a first-century Jew who applied Middle Platonism to the Old Testament via allegory. Influenced by Plato's Timaeus, Philo used the concept of Logos to separate the high God from creation. For Philo the Logos was God's organ to create and govern the world. Clement of Alexandria drew upon Philo's work and applied it to the New Testament. Clement wanted Christians to live in a proper and moderate manner. In an effort to show the supremacy of Christianity, Clement attempted to out-gnostic the Gnostics, labelling the enlightened Christian "the gnostic.“ For Clement, the Logos is subordinate to the Father, who alone is the true God. He might have believed that the Logos existed eternally as God's high priest. [1] Johannes Quasten, Patrology, vol 2 (Notre Dame, IN: Christian Classics, Ave Maria Press, 1983), 23.

The second installment of BORN IN THE SECOND CENTURY'S Montanism Trilogy examines the Christian reactions to this mysterious movement. Host Chris Palmero presents testimonies from Irenaeus, the Shepherd of Hermas, the Didache, Epiphanius, and of course, Eusebius. He also tackles a burning question: did Tertullian really convert to the New Prophecy, or was that illustrious fool merely participating in an elaborate LARP?Anyone who listens to this episode can learn about why Christians blow on the faces of their converts; whether Eusebius can really be trusted; the "Heretic's Journey;" whether the Catholics were trying to assassinate Montanus, Maximilla, and Priscilla; whether Irenaeus was a secret Montanist sympathizer; whether the Didache was originally a Montanist book; what the controversy between Christianity and the New Prophecy was really about; why Tertullian got involved in this movement; and how the pagan Celsus has taught us more about this "heresy" than any Christian commentator ever could. The host also shares a special time-saving technique that anyone can use when writing about Philip's Daughters.Opening reading: The Canons of the Council of Constantinople, from the late fourth century, look forward to the age in which Montanism eventually fades from the earth.Patreon: www.patreon.com/borninthesecondcenturyWebsite: facebook.com/BornInTheSecondCenturyE-mail: secondcenturypodcast@gmail.comMusic: Pompeii Gray on Apple Music, Spotify, SoundCloud00:48 - Reading: COUNCIL OF CONSTANTINOPLE, Canon 7.05:24 - OPENING Remarks.09:33 - Reading: FIRMILIAN, Epistle 74, to Cyprian.15:10 - A SAFETY Briefing before Reading Eusebius.18:41 - Testimony of THE ANONYMOUS.

BORN IN THE SECOND CENTURY'S journey through the New Testament continues with the undeniably late gospel of Luke. This is the first of a two part episode.Host Chris Palmero examines the structure and sources of Luke, and tracks Luke's earliest mentions in history. What we'll find is that Luke's gospel can't be detected in the historical record until almost the very end of the second century. When it finally appears, we can see that it seems to have gone through at least two phases of editing.Anyone who listens to this episode can learn about the theory of Proto-Luke; as well as the strange fact that the first draft of Luke appears to have been unaware of Mark. The supposed use and reception of Luke's gospel by the great arch-heretic Marcion is also covered. In the next episode, the date of the book will be examined.Patreon: www.patreon.com/borninthesecondcenturyWebsite: facebook.com/BornInTheSecondCenturyE-mail: secondcenturypodcast@gmail.comMusic: Pompeii Gray on Apple Music, Spotify, SoundCloud00:48  - Reading: Gospel of LUKE, Synagogue Preaching Vignette.19:21 - Excursus: Was Jesus LITERATE?23:56 - OPENING Remarks.27:32 - Top News Story: Irenaeus Now a DOCTOR of the Church.34:55 - 1:18:26 - STRUCTURE and SOURCES  of LUKE.34:55 - PROTO-LUKE.47:18 - MARK'S Gospel.57:08 - Minor Agreements with MATTHEW.1:06:51 - BIRTH Narrative.1:18:26 - 2:18:24 - RECEPTION of Luke.1:18:26 - Paul's LETTERS.1:20:03 - IRENAEUS.1:29:46 - HIPPOLYTUS.1:33:52 - PASTORAL Letters.1:34:50 - JOHN'S Gospel.1:37:55 - Canon of MURATORI.1:40:55 - PAPIAS.1:45:58 - CLEMENT OF ALEXANDRIA.1:49:04 - EUSEBIUS.1:49:34 - JEROME.1:54:02 - Anti-Marcionite and Monarchian PROLOGUES.1:56:51 - MARCION.2:15:28 - 2 CLEMENT; IGNATIUS.2:18:24 - TERMINUS Dates for Luke.2:23:37 - CLOSING Remarks.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/borninthesecondcentury)

This belongingness gives IDENTITY. Whom do you belong to? Any belongingness within this world would be very temporary as this present life is temporary. Only our relationship with God is permanent and eternal. That should be the source of identity and joy. St. Clement of Alexandria (150-215) was a pagan philosopher. He came across Christian doctrines and became a believer. He was a student at the Catechetical School of Alexandria and later became the head of it. He used his philosophical background to make the Faith intelligible to the intellectuals. He was exiled to Cappadocia and died there. This experience must have had a very lasting impact on this great Father of the Church. Therefore he said, "If you enroll as one of God's people, then heaven is your country and God your lawgiver."

Clement of Alexandria may not be the most well known of the Church Fathers but he was influential. Clement helped to develop the Alexandrian school, something that would be come even more famous (infamous?) under Clement’s student, Origen.

Seth's long-awaited episode on the breasts!But seriously though, in this episode the SSD crew discuss how breasts and breast milk have be utilized as religious imagery and a pedagogical tool to impart truths of the Christian faith.They also discuss the breast in religious art; breasts and bodily imagery as they appear in the writings of the mystics; stories of miraculous lactation; breast-feeding and the La Leche League.Whatever your thoughts on the breast, this is not the episode to miss.

This episode is about two very different church fathers. The father of Latin theology, Tertullian, hated all forms of Greek philosophy. Clement of Alexandria applied his love of philosophy everywhere, and could not possibly think higher of it. • Contact me at pealsofthunderministries@gmail.com • Follow on Instagram @pealsofthunder

Alexandria, in Egypt, was the intellectual capital of the Greco-Roman world, and as the second century turned to the third it emerged as an influential center of Christian thought. Its first impression was spectacular — and it all came from a teacher named Clement. He was a seeker after truth, and had traveled the Mediterranean to study under the greatest Christian teachers. He settled in Alexandria, the site of a newly founded school, and eventually he came to lead the school. Several of Clement's works have survived, including his great trilogy on the spiritual and moral life. Any Christian who has pursued the life of prayer in the great Christian tradition has encountered ideas developed by Clement.

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast from (05/12/20), Hank details another of the early church fathers, Clement of Alexandria, someone who Hank describes as the very personification of a Christian philosopher not content to curse the darkness, but rather committed to building a lighthouse in the midst of the gathering storm. Clement set an example for us as a scholar of scripture. He cites passages from the Old and New Testaments thousands of times, the Greek classics hundreds of times. As one famous patristic scholar put it, “We owe it above all to Clement that scholarly thinking and research are recognized as axiomatic to the life of the Church.” In other words, he was proving that faith and philosophy, gospel and secular learning, are not enemies but belong together. In the end, fierce persecution succeeded in driving Clement into exile, but not before he had been granted the grace to make enormous contributions to the cause of Christ.Hank also answers the following question:Why are you promoting Clement when he was responsible for promoting tradition almost on par with the Scriptures?

We introduce the life and thought of Orthodox Christianity's favourite in-house Gnostic, the great Clement of Alexandria. Come for the philosophical, esoteric Christianity, stay for the progressive postmortem deification.

You’re not making Christianity better; you’re making Stoicism worse. Gillespie and Riley continue their discussion of free will and predestination by reading Clement of Alexandria. Where does the doctrine of free will originate? What happens when a Christian blends biblical theology and philosophy? Why doesn’t Riley like Star Wars sermons?

About 8 years ago, I had my first major donor request. At the time, I had no idea how to ask for a large sum of money. I just wanted to help my diocese raise funds... never imagining awkward moments such as these. At any rate, the donation request went well, and the donor generously said yes. But the experience left a strong impression on me. I wanted to learn a better way to ask for large donations. I wanted to learn a Catholic way. Enter Saint Clement of Alexandria. He gave me the insight that I was looking for, and I wanted to share them with you. Learn more here: http://bit.ly/2tkBOgV

Last time we saw that some influential Christians rejected the biblical teaching on the kingdom because the idea of living on earth forever seemed crude to them.  This time, we look at how the ancients thought about bodies and bodily pleasures.  As it turns out, from (at least) Plato onward, many philosophers tended to embrace Read more about 103 The Kingdom Is Too Hedonic (Kingdom of God 12)[…]

We are happy to welcome Benjamin Brandon to this week's episode. We will discuss the Christian Platonist, Clement of Alexandria and his Stromata (or miscellanies). Please visit our website at http://www.ahistoryofchristiantheology.com where we have a map of the philosophical schools of Athens and other great content.

With Tom back on the show, we turn to Clement of Alexandria, one of the greatest thinkers of the Christian tradition, but largely neglected due to the complexity of his thought. We will look at the relationship between humans and the divine in both pagan and Christian thought.

Clement of Alexandria (150-215AD) was a philosopher who converted to Christianity and ran a school for converts in Alexandria, Egypt. He wrote an extensive handbook on Christian life as well as works on the Christian view of Paganism and philosophy. http://archive.org/download/OrthodoxChurchHistory/4ClementAlex-2006-C_WEB.mp3
