In this fourth installment of our miniseries on Christology, we discuss about the history of dogma o ang pag-usbong ng mga christological dogmas through the Ecumenical Councils bilang sagot ng Simbahan sa mga heresies throughout the ages. We will be reviewing the first seven Ecumenical Councils of the Church (not counting the Council of Jerusalem). Technical ang usapan natin dahil may mga konsepto ng person, hypostasis, nature, etc. Pero makakaasa ka na kami pa rin ang paborito mong background noise!

Usapang Who is Jesus (Part IV): The Christological Dogmas

Who is Jesus of Nazareth? 'Yan ang main question ng Christology. In this episode, we discuss about Jesus' "messianic claim", especifically in the christological titles: ano nga ba ang ibig sabihin nito at ano ang basis sa Old and New Testaments.

 1. Christ/Messiah
 2. Son of God
 3. Son of Man
 4. Lord
 5. Logos/Word of God

Usapang Who is Jesus (Part II b): The Resurrection

Sa episode na ito, tatalakayin natin ang pinakapuso ng pananampalatayang Kristiyano—ang Paschal Mystery: ang pagpapakasakit, pagkamatay, at muling pagkabuhay ni Jesus.

We will divide the discussion into two parts: this episode will deal with the Passion and Death on the Cross of Jesus, while the next episode we will be discussing about the Resurrection. Dito sa Part II.a ng ating Christology miniseries, heto ang pag-uusapan natin:

* Jesus and the Temple of Jerusalem
* The Last Supper
* Who killed Jesus?
* How did he interpret his own death?

Kung gusto mong mas maintindihan ang dahilan kung bakit ipinako si Jesus sa krus , this episode is for you. Hindi lang ito kwento ng nakaraan—ito ay kwento natin.

Usapang Who is Jesus (Part II a): The Passion and Death on the Cross

We are starting a miniseries (o pwede ring "here-series", jk!) about Christology. Sino nga ba talaga si Jesus Christ? Is the historical Jesus, the nazarean carpenter executed by Roman authorities at the behest of the Jewish religious elites, the same person as the Christ of the Faith, the Son of God professed by Christians? To answer this, we will be dividing this miniseries into 5 episodes:

1. Introduction to Christology

2. The Paschal Mystery

3. The Messianic claim

4. The Christological dogmas and heresies

5. Jesus the Saviour

And, dito sa ating first episode of this miniseries, we will be introducing what Christology is, why is it important as faith seeking understanding, the difference between "low Christology" o "from below" at "high Christology" o "from above".

Happy listening!



---



For this miniseries, we will be recommending various bibliographical resources for you to go deeper after listening to each episodes. For the whole miniseries we recommend the reading of Joseph Ratzinger's (Benedict XVI) Jesus of Nazaret trilogy and the Dominus Iesus document of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith signed by the same theologian when he was Prefect of the Roman Congregation.

Habemus Papam! On 8th of March 2025, Robert Francis Cardinal Prevost was elected the 266th succesor of Saint Peter as Bishop of Rome kaya naman special ang episode natin today, uploaded not on the usual day! In this episode, sinamahan tayo ng ating guest host na si Doc Luke and our correspondent sa Vatican City, ang nagbabalik na si Bro. Leonard Bryan Cabatingan, ssp.

Prayer for the Pope (Latin)

V. Oremus pro Pontifice nostro Leonem XIV

R. Dominus conservet eum, et vivificet eum, et beatum faciat eum in terra, et non tradat eum in animam inimicorum eius. [Ps 40:3]

Pater Noster,  [https://www.preces-latinae.org/thesaurus/Basics/OraDom.html]Ave Maria. [https://www.preces-latinae.org/thesaurus/Basics/AveMaria.html]

Deus, omnium fidelium pastor et rector, famulum tuum Leonem, quem pastorem Ecclesiae tuae praeesse voluisti, propitius respice: da ei, quaesumus, verbo et exemplo, quibus praeest, proficere: ut ad vitam, una cum grege sibi credito, perveniat sempiternam. Per Christum, Dominum nostrum. Amen.



Prayer for the Pope (English)V. Let us pray for Leo XIV, our Pope.

R. May the Lord preserve him, and give him life, and make him blessed upon the earth, and deliver him not up to the will of his enemies. [Ps 40:3]

Our Father. Hail Mary.

O God, Shepherd and Ruler of all Thy faithful people, look mercifully upon Thy servant Leo, whom Thou hast chosen as shepherd to preside over Thy Church. Grant him, we beseech Thee, that by his word and example, he may edify those over whom he hath charge, so that together with the flock committed to him, may he attain everlasting life. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Usapang Pope Leo XIV with Doc Luke and Bro. Bryan: our first impressions

On the same day that this episode becomes available, the Church will also start the Conclave of 2025 kaya in this episode we talk about the Church. In a way, this will be our first episode dedicated to Ecclesiology and Church History. We are joined by our dear friends, Doc Luke and Ms. Ann Mare, para talakayin ang mga usapan tulad ng should the next pope be a "continuity" pope with respect to Pope Francis or tama ba na isipin natin na may rupture sa history ng Simbahan? What is "hermeneutics of continuity"? Pwede bang magkaroon ng "bad popes"? Eh ano yung mga kwento sa history? Eh bakit pula ang sapatos ng papa? Pag nagpula ba siya na sapatos automatic bad na siya? Is traditionalism equal to being a bigot o yun ay discrimination lang na propagated ng mga may hidden agenda?



---



We share to you the following prayers as we join the Church in prayerful waiting as the cardinals enter the Conclave:

Novena Prayer for the Sacred College of Cardinals gathered for the Conclave to elect the Roman Pontiff

I kneel before you, O Virgin Mother of God, Our Lady of Guadalupe, the compassionate mother of all who love you, cry to you, seek you, and trust in you. I plead for the Church at a time of great trial and danger for her. As you came to the rescue of the Church at Tepeyac in 1531, please intercede for the Sacred College of Cardinals gathered in Rome to elect the Successor of Saint Peter, Vicar of Christ, Shepherd of the Universal Church.

At this tumultuous time for the Church and for the world, plead with your Divine Son that the Cardinals of the Holy Roman Church, His Mystical Body, will humbly obey the promptings of the Holy Spirit. Through your intercession, may they choose the most worthy man to be Christ’s Vicar on earth. With you, I place all my trust in Him Who alone is our help and salvation. Amen.

Heart of Jesus, salvation of those who trust in Thee, have mercy upon us!

Our Lady of Guadalupe, Virgin Mother of God and Mother of Divine Grace, pray for us!



By Raymond Leo Cardinal BURKE

Prayer Imploring for Holy Popes

Kyrie Eleison! Christe Eleison! Kyrie Eleison! Lord Jesus Christ, You are the Good Shepherd! With Your almighty hand You guide Your pilgrim Church through the storms of each age.

Adorn the Holy See with holy popes who neither fear the powerful of this world nor compromise with the spirit of the age, but preserve, strengthen, and defend the Catholic Faith unto the shedding of their blood, and observe, protect, and hand on the venerable liturgy of the Roman Church.

O Lord, return to us through holy popes who, inflamed with the zeal of the Apostles, proclaim to the whole world: “Salvation is found in no other than in Jesus Christ. For there is no other name under heaven given to men by which they should be saved” (see Acts 4:10-12).

Through an era of holy popes, may the Holy See—which is home to all who promote the Catholic and Apostolic Faith— always shine as the cathedra of truth for the whole world. Hear us, O Lord, and through the intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Mother of the Church, grant us holy Popes, grant us many holy Popes! Have mercy on us and hear us! Amen.



By Bishop Athanasius Schneider
