The Divine Liturgy which utilizes ancient elements written by St Chrysostom is clearly sacrificial in nature also, Lutherans would object to the Divine Liturgy
The didache, apostolic constitutions, all the ancient writers going back to St Ignatius comment on the sacrificial nature of the mass which requires a real and present victim. Not sure why you appeal to tradition for your view when you piecemeal
No you don’t if there is no real and present victim it’s just mental gymnastics in my opinion to avoid the clear teachings of the fathers held in the universal church for all time
Jordan cooper is a meme in my opinion I’ve read his book and his “citations” of the fathers in his book on christification because he is scared of theosis
The fathers were so far the other way in their view of theosis it’s ridiculous, the way he treated the fathers showed nothing but bias, ignorance or intentional deception.
Yes. Seeing that Luther was not willing to give up his false teachings in order to team up with the orthodox, the patriarch of constantinople asked him to stop writing them.
