Changes

Though with the best of intent to present pure Orthodox patristic beliefs, Lossky's works have been criticised for their shortcomings in this regard, both in his terminology and in a distinction regarding [[salvation|salvific work]].{{reference}}

Lossky attempted to explain Orthodox theology through the contemporary terminology of existentialism; but, in doing so, he confused the patristic distinction between ''person'' (prosopon) and ''essence'' (ousia/ουσια) and applied this to anthropology.{{reference}}

The second criticism, a shortcoming most likely arising from Fr [[Pavel Florensky]]'s controversial work ''Stolp i utverzdenie isteny''<!--translation?-->, was a new distinction between the salvation by the work of the [[God the Son|Son]] and the work of the [[Holy Spirit]].{{reference}}
