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 Resurrection of the Dead and the Life of the World to Come


Upon entering the Easter season, Bishop Bryan reflects upon the Resurrection of Jesus. How does the Resurrection of Christ impart its Grace into our mortal bodies so as to make it possible for us to enter into the New Heaven and the New Earth? Is this blessing accomplished immediately upon death for those saved in Christ or is it more complicated than that? Find out the esoteric answer to these questions and more on this edition of Vestiges of Christianity.
