ACCORDING to the Orthodox definition, the Sacraments are "Ordained means of Grace, necessary to salvation, instruments of Eternal Life, which - through outward and visible signs- transfer to the Faithful inward and spiritual Grace." How is it that these divinely-appointed ordinances of Grace, which ought to bind together the Members of the Church, have turned into veritable apples of discord? The reason is very simple. The Sacraments have gradually lost their original signification, and have degenerated into mere ritual functions. As they repeatedly failed to transfer the immense benefits which they were appointed to transmit, these glaring failures gave birth to grave doubts concerning their efficacy. At the Reformation five of the Sacraments were simply discarded as "not necessary to Salvation." Luther went so far as to style the Sacrament of Confirmation a "FIRMELUNG," which word signifies FRAUD or CHEAT. If he had had the slightest notion of the Inner Meaning of the Sacraments, he would not have handled the pruning-knife with such deplorable alacrity. One thing is certain: no Reformation could have occurred if the Church of Rome had retained possession of the Sacred Gnosis. Knowledge of the esoteric signification of the Mysteries was in ancient times called "the Power of the Keys" (potestas clavicum). This power has long ago ceased to be the appanage of Orthodox Christianity. During the first centuries of the Christian era this knowledge remained in the hands of different Secret Societies, which were on this account terribly persecuted by the Orthodox Priesthood. In our days the Church has lost the faculty of inflicting bodily injury to those who do not share her views, but the "Odium Theologicum" still subsists Christians are still requested to "detest, abhor, and condemn" certain opinions, which are declared to be "wicked heresies."

Download or read book Sacramental Theology for a Modern and Future World written by Michael Debus and published by SteinerBooks. This book was released on 2022-01-28 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What Christ Jesus taught is not what is most important, but rather what he has given humanity. His resurrection is the birth of a new faculty within human nature." -- Rudolf Steiner There are many books on sacramental theology --some of which focus on a specific denomination, while others aspire to rigorous academic objectivity. Some also serve as an introduction to a particular branch of Christianity, and Michael Debus's book serves that purpose well. Nevertheless, the author's integration of theological developments through the centuries with a discussion of the evolution of consciousness makes this book unique. He addresses the fact that anyone looking for a new or renewed relationship to Christian religiosity must come to understand the center of religious cognitive consciousness and practical life --the sacraments. Is baptism merely a symbolic act, or is it a reality that affects one's life? Does a final unction affect a person's future stages of destiny? How should we understand the transformation of bread and wine? What spiritual processes are expressed in "rituals"? The Christian Community --working since 1922 as a conscious movement for religious renewal --offers answers to these and other crucial questions. Michael Debus speaks to readers who wish to understand more deeply the spiritual foundations of The Christian Community and its place in theological history and its role in Christianity today. In Sacramental Theology for a Modern and Future World, Michael Debus makes complex topics and concepts accessible to all who wish to understand the background and sacraments of The Christian Community and the Movement for Christian Renewal. This book is a translation of Auferstehungskräfte im Schicksal: Die Sakramente der Christengemeinschaft (Urachhaus, 2011).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sacraments speak a language and disclose their power through symbols. Beyond ‘representing’ another reality, sacramental symbols are intimately connected with the reality they express and sources of joy, solace, confrontation, peace, healing, strength, and life-giving sustenance to the initiated.In its Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, the Council the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965) urged that sacramental symbols be more transparent to their sacred reality to disclose the reality of the Christ event —the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ—so that mystery, and not confusion, could flourish.The seven sacraments – Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Penance, Marriage, Orders and the Anointing of the Sick - reveal a link to social justice. The contributors to this book are theologians with pastoral sensitivities—including marrieds, parents, pastors and priests. This present work the social implications of worship, the history of each sacrament, and but also an integrated understanding of the transformation that is inextricably linked to each sacrament, as well as the active presence of Christ who lives in expectation of our response to participate in the urgent response to unjust policies and systems that affect the most vulnerable in our global family.
