Do you have additional comments for the Logos team? Add those here.
I cheated on this as most of the ELCA documents also have a Study Guide and a Summary and I would like to see most ELCA statements available in Logos just as I like the Vatican documents in Verbum.
Blurb for the statement itself:
This resource is intended for use in LWF member churches or other settings to enable the understanding and reception of the Joint Statement on the Filioque, drawn up by the Lutheran Orthodox Joint International Commission on Theological Dialogue during its 18th session in May 2024.
It contains background to the centuries-old dispute between Eastern and Western churches over the wording of the Nicene Creed, an explanation of the methodology which led to this ground-breaking agreement and the hope that it may inspire Lutheran and Orthodox parishes to engage in joint services, prayers and other activities.
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
