The Saints – Disciples At The School Of Christ - Sight In Non-sight -

Summary/Abstract: All the Saints were disciples at the school of Christ. Those in the Old Testament, who were disciples at the school of the non-incarnate Logos, a preparation for the divine economy by type, those in the New Testament who partook with the Word of life, Christ, the incarnate Logos, and those in Church history to this day, all were disciple in the school of Christ. It was not an apprenticeship only through teaching, but it was and is an apprenticeship through imitation. The ways in which God appears in Old Testament history and His sight by the man fallen through disobedience are only “derogations” in order to prepare man for partaking with God, partaking lost in Heaven by falling. All the Saints have a sight of God in non-sight, a secret revelation, a hidden one. The Christians of the early communities imitated the Old Testament prophets and the Apostles who were models of holiness. There is this consciousness of the Saints unity around the Mystery of Christ or within the Mystery of Christ, for which the ages have been made. The knowledge of God in nature is a step that must be overcome for deification. The knowledge of God by sight transcends the knowledge of God in nature without annulling it, but includes it, being infinitely richer than it.
