What is the essence–energy distinction in theology, and why is it so central in Eastern Orthodoxy yet often denied in the West? In this video, we explore Alan Rhoda’s article “Making Sense of the Essence–Energies Distinction” and dive deep into the questions:
• What does it mean to say God’s essence is unknowable?
• How do God’s energies (His love, wisdom, power) make Him known?
Why do we need this distinction to make sense of divine freedom, the Incarnation, theosis, and creation?
Where do Eastern and Western approaches get it wrong?
If you’ve ever wondered how to understand God’s transcendence and immanence without collapsing into pantheism or making God a static principle, this teaching is for you.
