Who We Are

Vestiges of Christianity is a news blog maintained under the direction of Bishop Bryan D. Ouellette, Ph.D., SOSM. Our goal is to reconcile ancient Christian theology with contemporary orthodox Christian practices and understandings. Our praxis carries with it a strong eastern liturgical focus while maintaining a freedom of spirituality that is true to ancient Christian ideology. We welcome anyone who desires to discover gnosis through the expression of early Christianity. We use the word "gnosis" with the intention to reflect its original meaning of soteriological knowledge, mystical wisdom and spiritual realization. While we encourage a working philosophical comprehension of Classical Gnosticism from antiquity, we are not a Gnostic or reconstructionist church. Our theology is orthodox, our approach, furthermore, is mystically liberating.

The Mark of the Beast: 666, Sigils, and Tattoos



Harmless popular body art or hidden sorcery? Bishop Bryan Ouellette will discuss the esoteric implications and consequences of tattoos. Leviticus 19:28 specifically prohibits the acquiring of a tattoo under Jewish law. Was this prohibition just an antiquated Old Testament rule or was there a deeper, esoteric reason behind it? And what of the "Mark of the Beast" discussed in Revelation 13:16? Is this related to Leviticus 19? Find out today on Vestiges of Christianity!
