""On Holy Relics,"" a 1918 response to Bolshevik desecration of the relics of Russian saints, develops a comprehensive theology of holy relics, connecting them with the Incarnation and showing their place in sacramental theology. The second essay, ""On the Gospel Miracles,"" written in 1932, presents a Christological doctrine of miracles, focusing on how human activity relates to the works of Christ. Both essays are suffused with Bulgakov's faith in Christian resurrection -- and with his signature ""religious materialism,"" in which the corporeal is illuminated by the spiritual and the earthly is transfigured into the heavenly.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Sergius Bulgakov, Boris jakim</note> <subject> <topic>Miracles of Jesus Christ</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Theology -- Doctrinal</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Christianity -- Essence, genius, nature</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Orthodox Eastern Church</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">235.2</classification> <classification authority="ddc">B933-S48</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9780802865311</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/13861/re.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/13861/re.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071311.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
