THE
MYSTERY OF THE 8TH DAY
Metropolitan of Acheloos
EFTHYMIOS (STYLIOS)
Orthodox Christian
Eschatology
(1st publication)
The theological word on the eschata, the
future events before, during and after the Last Judgment, is neither easy
nor harmless. The scope of Christian Eschatology is Christ and His
triumphant final Victory against the evil and His eternal Kingdom. This
book highlights that Christ's salvation work is completed and concluded
during the eschata but it is finalized when the 8th timeless day of His
eternal Kingdom starts.

Minutes of the 13th Hellenic
Liturgical Symposium
This edition featuring the Minutes of the 13th
Hellenic Liturgical Symposium of the Officers of the Holy Metropolises,
held on the island of Tinos in 2011, focuses on the issue of liturgical and
divine Worship which is of particular interest today. The outstanding
speeches of Hierarchs, scholar clergymen and university professors examine
the contemporary liturgical word in relation to the challenges of our era
concerning the language of the Divine Worship of our Church. More specifically,
this topic is examined by: G. Babiniotis, f.K. Karaisaridis, f. D. Tzerpos,
G. Galitis, A. Koltsiou Nikita, G. Filias, F. Schoinas, P. Skaltsas, f. V.
Kalliakmanis, f. Th. Martzouchos, A. Chiotellis, Metropolitan of Edessa Mr.
Ioel, G. Stathis and A. Kasapis. The aforementioned speeches highlight the
significance of the use of the language, assess the offer of the Greek
language in the worship of the church, examine the conditions for the
translation of the holy texts and the use of the Modern Greek language and,
finally, stress the care of the fathers for the understanding of the
suprarational truths of the divine Worship.

On
the infallibility of the Church in the Orthodox Theology,
by Stylianos St.
Harkianakis, Archbishop of Australia
Apostoliki Diakonia advanced to a new edited
publication of the doctoral thesis of the Reverend Archbishop of Australia,
Mr. Stylianos (Harkianakis). The book amply demonstrates that the most
significant ecclesiological matter of the infallibility of the Church is
identified with its essence, its pure faith. The church, especially the
Orthodox Church which is the continuation of the ancient indivisible
Christian church, is authentic and infallible, because it maintains its
essence, its faith, integral and unadulterated. This firm basis is
documented by the Archbishop using history and doctrine and also
systematically through the writings of the Holy Testament, the importance
of the apostolic authority, the conscience of the Church and the
ecclesiastic framework (Ecumenical Councils). Furthermore, he makes
reference to two misguided extremities, such as the Primacy of the Bishop
of Rome and the Pope's infallibility and Sobornost the "catholic"
theory of the Russian theologian, Α. Chomiakov.

Answers
to eschatological questions
What will be the end of
the man and the world?
by Andreas Theodorou,
Professor of the Athens University
The 7th book of the widely read professor
Andreas Theodorou is added to the series "Basic Doctrine
Teaching". He theologically approaches and analyzes topics of the
Christian eschatology in the form of 43 questions and answers. More
specifically, he starts from the concept of death and the soul's
immortality, examines the average condition of the souls, the relation of
the militant and triumphant Church and ends with the resurrection of the
dead and the universal crisis of the faithful. He also sheds light to the
cleansing fire, the end of the world and the nature of the penalties after
death. This book transfers to the hearts of the people basic truths for the
mystery of death and the existential matter of the ultimate destination,
eternal life and joy of each faithful.
