Description
The Bride of the Lamb by Sergius Bulgakov is widely regarded as one of the greatest works ever produced in the modern Orthodox church. This book presents a fresh approach to Christian doctrine, offering insights into ecclesiology and eschatology from a unique sophiological perspective. Bulgakov's distinctive Russian approach sees the Creator and creation intimately linked as Divine-humanity, exploring the nature of created beings, the relationship between God and the world, and the role of the church. This thought-provoking work also examines eschatological themes such as the second coming of Jesus, resurrection, judgment, and the afterlife. Translated into English by Boris Jakim, The Bride of the Lamb provides a valuable introduction to Russian Orthodox theology for readers new to the subject.
