Monarchy of the Father (Condensed Version) — Dr. Beau Branson

A highly condensed, 1-hour public lecture covering the monarchy of the Father by Dr. Beau Branson.

Most patristic authors affirm the “Monarchy of the Father,” yet the doctrine is seldom addressed in analytic discussions of the Trinity. The claim that the Father is the “mono-arche” of the Trinity, can be disambiguated in several ways, including the claim that the Father just is (numerically identical to) “the One God.” I show how even this strong view is compatible with a surprisingly wide range of analytic models of the Trinity, despite their being intended to be egalitarian.
