#opusculum

[caloroso-cosmos]

Sitting down with the intention of posting a story that I’ve written sometime ago only to realize I have no idea what to title it. I’m entertaining the idea of simply calling each story “opusculum” with additional descriptive title where it fits the story e.g. “opusculum 1″, “opusculum 2: descriptive title″ etc. 

Any thoughts or suggestions regarding this are welcome 😊

On the Two Wills of Christ in the Agony of Gethsemane

...If, however, you understand the subject of the phrase Let not what I will, but what you will prevail to be not the man just like us but the man we consider as Savior, then you have confessed the ultimate concurrence of his human will with the divine will, which is both his and the Father’s; and you have demonstrated that with the duality of his natures there are two wills (θελήσεις) and two operations (ένεργείαι) respective to the two natures,  and that he admits of no opposition between them, even though he maintains all the while the difference between the two natures from which, in which, and which he is by nature. St Maximos the Confessor
