Ovey challenges pluralism and mysticism. 1. The wrong god - Paul is greatly distressed when he sees the pluralism in Athens. If we treat God as we do idols, where we are in charge, then we are not in relationship with God. 2. God's command is to repent from this thinking/acting. Our wrong ideas have wronged God. 3. Jesus has seen God, and thus we get our information about God from Jesus, because Jesus is God. He proved this by being raised from the dead. God talks to us, he reveals himself., Cassette label reads : "St Thomas' tape library Take Captive Every Thought 3. 'Pluralism : maturity or mutilation?' 24.8.97 Mike Ovey"

Abstract reads : "Against the background of recent discussion of perceived problems within the Definition of Chalcedon, with reference to its conceptual apparatus, and of the growing body of literature on the Acta of Chalcedon, this thesis has sought to investigate the conceptual apparatus of the Definition of Chalcedon. It has sought to identify its contours and whether there are problems present. To do so, the thesis first establishes the interpretive approach the Acta furnish for the Definition, namely, three interpretive strategies given for understanding the Definition. These strategies are then employed, tracing key terminology and their attendant concepts through the 4th-century authorities indicated by the Acta (Athanasius, Basil of Caesarea, and Gregory of Nazianzus) and the two conciliar letters of Cyril (The Second Letter to Nestorius and The Letter to John of Antioch) with the support of Leo’s Tome. The concepts of universality and particularity are chosen as the objects of investigation because of their central importance to the debates of the prior centuries and because they are the source of the problems identified by contemporary authors. The fruit of this investigation is then applied to the Definition, with the conclusion that there is indeed a conceptual problem in the Definition. The Definition sought to present itself as an application of the Nicene Creed, interpreted by select 4th-century fathers, to the debates of the previous decades concerning the incarnation of the Son. In doing so, it juxtaposed two ontological apparatuses that are not readily reconciled, namely, the account of a derivative essence used for the Trinity, by which three hypostases could be said to have one being or nature (ousia, phusis), and the logical account of two natures, by which one hypostasis could be said to have two essences or natures (ousia, phusis). Potential resolutions drawn from the following centuries and contemporary discussion are evaluated without finding an adequate resolution."

The Word meets opposition, it comes into a cosmos that will later be described as sinful 3.

Salier mentions the challenges of defining a quotation, and highlights how the quotes are clustered together. Salier explorers the way John uses the Septuigant when quoting to show that Christ is the key. Salier, (and John) provides evidence for why we should consider John as scripture and equal to the Septuigant 1. the use of language. 2. The farewell discourse, and the validation of the witnesses, 3. The role of the spirit, both as a helper and to continue to work of Jesus to tell that Jesus is the Son of the Father, and the Father is the Father of the Son. 4.

Hohne explores what happens when God's choice of Jesus Christ meets the alternative claims made by the chosing self. He explores theologians throughout history, especially the Nicean debates, as well as Biblical passages, especially in Colossians and Proverbs. Hohne uses Hagel to explore the choosing self in contrast to God's choice of Jesus Christ, where he is desiring to separate father from son, and thus father could not glorify the son. Hohne shows that Father and son are equally divine. Talk is followed by questions.
