Theology Debated In The Marketplace
Theology Debated In The Marketplace
MHFM: This is an interesting quote from St. Gregory of Nyssa concerning the theological debates and controversies in the fourth century. Issues concerning the Trinity and the full divinity of the Son and the Holy Spirit were so hotly contested (and were considered so important) that people would carry on debates and discussions about these matters in the marketplace and elsewhere.
St. Gregory of Nyssa, Oration On The Deity Of The Son And The Holy Spirit (4th Century): “Everywhere, in the public squares, at crossroads, on the streets and lanes, people would stop you and discourse at random about the Trinity. If you asked something of a moneychanger, he would begin discussing the question of the Begotten and the Unbegotten. If you questioned a baker about the price of bread, he would answer [heretically] that the Father is greater and the Son is subordinate to Him. If you went to take a bath, the Anomoean bath attendant would tell you [heretically] that in his opinion the Son simply comes from nothing.”
