All right, welcome to another live stream.

This will be technically part two because the previous ones were a two-parter of part one.

So this is part two.

We'll be talking tonight about paradigms.

I don't know how far we're going to get into the other ones here,

but Kai, can you explain where you intend to go tonight?

I want to do another live stream we do. This will be technically, there's an echo on your.

Yeah, sorry, that was me. Sorry, I had the stream open. Yeah, so basically part two, I envision

it's going to be basically three series. We're going to look at paradigms.

We're going to look at composite hypostasis and then essence energy's distinction.

So tonight we're just going to focus on paradigms, why they're important, how we can use them,

and just kind of look at St. Cyril and some of his language and try to understand his paradigm.

I've been making some posts about it.

The Oriental crowd and Sam, they've been criticizing paradigms.

They basically don't really understand why we use them and how they can be useful.

So hopefully this is going to clear up a lot of stuff for a lot of people tonight.

And then that's going to lead us into the next stream afterwards to talk about composite hepostasis.

This is language that is used by a lot of the fathers, from early on, even to the 20th century.

Like you'll see it being used by St. Justin Popovich.

So it's quite a common term to be used, but a lot of people misunderstand what exactly

compitipostasis means.

Very common in St. Maximus.
