The discussion begins with an exploration of the third age, characterized by the intertwining of ecclesiastical power and imperial authority, a period marked by significant theological and political upheaval. The emergence of Constantine as a pivotal figure in the establishment of Christianity as a state religion is highlighted, as his actions catalyzed a transformation in the Church's influence over societal structures. This age is scrutinized for its reliance on fear and intimidation, which shaped the practices and beliefs of early Christians. Transitioning to the fourth age, the conversation delves into the ramifications of this newfound power, including the establishment of the New Testament canon and the emergence of monasticism, as exemplified by figures such as St. Anthony of Egypt. The hosts engage in a thoughtful dialogue about the theological implications of these developments, particularly concerning the Church's efforts to define orthodoxy amidst rising heretical movements. The narrative also touches on the socio-political challenges that arose during this time, including the schisms that divided the Church and the ensuing conflicts that shaped its identity. Ultimately, this episode serves not only as a historical overview but also as an exhortation for listeners to reflect on their own faith journeys within the context of this rich ecclesiastical heritage. By understanding the complexities of the Church's past, individuals are encouraged to embrace their roles in advancing the Gospel message today, fostering a spirit of unity and purpose as they navigate the complexities of modern Christian life.Mentioned in this episode:Victory in 7 Book by TS Wright God Centered Concept Discipleship SeriesVictory in 7 Book by TS Wright God Centered Concept Discipleship Series
