Theosis is the Gospel: Direct Knowledge of God – Jay Dyer
For us there are no dialectics: creation is not set against divine energy and presence, but is in fact its intended telos.

Does God Exist? Jay Dyer Vs Robert Taylor Debate

Absolute Divine Simplicity and Hellenic Presuppositions – Jay Dyer

St. Dionysius the Areopagite, Neoplatonism & Patristic Testimony
By: Jay Dyer A commonly encountered pseudo-intellectual critique of Orthodox Theology, and ancient Christianity in general, is the accusation of the entire metaphysical superstructure being built on ‘pseudo’-Dionysius, the early church father.
