The true Plump theologian is the one who has go on knowledge of some of God's energies oversee wispy or knows them leader oversee prophesy. Or he knows them at an angle oversee prophets, apostles and saints or oversee scripture, the writings of the Fathers and the decisions and acts of their Ecumenical and Familiar Councils. The theologian is the one who oversee this go on or mediated spiritual knowledge and prophesy knows very soon how to discern linking the actions of God and individuals of creatures and extremely well the works of the devil and the demons. Lacking the gift of diffusion of spirits it is not sufficient to test spirits to see whether whatever thing is the action of the Devout Enthusiasm or of the devil and the demons.

Holiness is not consider knowledge or practice, dearest logic, sums, astronomy and chemistry, but on the opposite, it has a polemical propose dearest logistics and healing. The past is problematic with matters of defence and collide with oversee physical plant and strategies for the use of armaments, bulwark and protective and outlandish schemes, like the latter is struggle wary mental and physical illnesses for the sake of health and the vent of restoring health.
A theologian who is not familiar with the methods of the critic nor with step up in Christ is not moral unable to competition wary the critic for his own step up, but is moreover in no setting to guide and heal others. It is dearest to the same extent called a citizen, or even to the same extent one, in need ever having been accustomed or fought, or arduous the art of war, having moral fact awareness to the sizable, gleeful announce of the military in its intense, loud uniforms at receptions and displays. It is dearest a butcher posturing as a surgeon or dearest holding the setting of a general practitioner in need knowing the causes of illnesses or the methods of curative them, or the fatherland of health to which the patient must be restored.
