An Attempt to Define the Concept of Charisma in Orthodox Theology

Stefanica Dragos

Impact of Socio-economic and Technological Transformations at National, European and International Level (ISETT), 2015, vol. 1

Abstract: Gifts of the Holy Spirit occupy a place of honor in the teaching of the Orthodox Church. However, after the emergence of the Pentecostal-Charismatic Movements, the Eastern Church paid more attention to this doctrine. In this paper, we aim to analyze how Orthodox theologians define the charisms of the Holy Spirit; as we shall see, they do not provide a perfectly homogeneous perspective on this topic, a fact which requires clarification of this very important theological concept.
