From my mom the Episcopal
From my mom the Episcopal deacon:
Well, Christology is the study of the person of Christ and how He/he exists and gets really complicated, as in "which of my 53 Christologies do you want to use today?" or my Unitarian friend who says, "I love Jesus, I have a higher Christology than any of you"--more emphasis on the divine part, is usually what that means. Offices like duties? Like roles? Like liturgies/"daily office"?
I am waiting to hear from my friend the Lutheran pastor.
