Between them were the works of Archpriest Sergiy Bulgakov, which contained his special heretical teaching on Sofia and on “sophistry”. Since the Russian reader is not sophisticated in these matters, and many are embarrassed by this doctrine, which is clearly not in accordance with the church doctrine, in this regard requests come from there to give a correct explanation of this direction. Therefore, our publishing house has taken steps to reprint a thorough work on this issue of Archbishop Seraphim (Sobolev) - "The New Doctrine of Sophia the Wisdom of God." In this work, His Grace Archbishop Seraphim skillfully and convincingly exposes the teachings of Archpriest S. Bulgakov about Sophia, the Wisdom of God. The author shows in an exhaustive manner that the sophiology of Archpriest Sergius Bulgakov is not consistent with the Orthodox tradition. This is his teaching, of course, in a rougher, currently unacceptable form, characteristic of almost all Gnostic sects, starting from the first centuries of Christianity. Through the Kabbalistic-occult tradition and further through the Rosicrucians in the genus Jacob Boehme, and through the Freemasons, whose writings became widespread in Russia at the end of the 18th century, these Gnostic tendencies also spread to Russia. In the future, this direction was resumed in the writings of V.S. Solovyov and prot. Pavel Florensky. Therefore now, when they try to spread this false doctrine of neo-Gnosticism among the inexperienced Russian reader, by sending books Archpriest S. Bulgakov or by printing the works of prot. Pavel Florensky, we believe that the work of Archbishop Seraphim is very necessary, and will help many understand this anti-church direction, to which the writings of the mentioned philosopher writers lead.
