| | Heresy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Heresy, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, is a "theological or religious opinion or doctrine maintained in opposition, or held to be contrary, to the Catholic or Orthodox doctrine of the Christian Church, or, by extension, to that of any church, creed, or religious system, considered as orthodox. | | | Heresy is both the nonorthodox belief itself, and the act of holding to that belief. | | | In the early church, heresies were sometimes determined by a selected council of bishops, or ecumenical council, such as the First Council of Nicaea and promulgated by the Pope and the bishops under him. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Heresy |
| | The Church's legislation on heresy and heretics is often reproached with cruelty and intolerance. | | | The subject-matter of both faith and heresy is, therefore, the deposit of the faith, that is, the sum total of truths revealed in Scripture and Tradition as proposed to our belief by the Church. | | | Heresy, in the sense of falling away from the Faith, became possible only after the Faith had been promulgated by Christ. |

| | Heresy |
| | Heresy is a self-chosen belief in opposition to the Holy Scriptures. | | | Heresy may have as much to do with fellowship within the church as it does with doctrinal teachings, if the heresy is NOT DAMNABLE heresy. | | | Such simple heretics when confronted with the truth of the Scriptures, may be led by the Spirit of Truth and Holiness, to put aside their false beliefs in preference to the truth of the word of God. |

| | Heresy |
| | Thus, the person who is objectively in heresy is not formally guilty of heresy if 1) their ignorance of the truth is due to their upbringing in a particular religious tradition (to which they may even be scrupulously faithful), and 2) they are not morally responsible for their ignorance of the truth. | | | This canon is saying that once a person willingly repudiates Christ, embraces a heresy, knowing it to be contrary to divine and Catholic faith, or refuses submission to the Roman Pontiff (or communion with the members of the Church subject to him), by virtue of the law itself they are automatically excommunicated. | | | This means that someone who has formally separated himself from the Church through heresy or schism, or knowing the Church to be true failed to enter her, cannot be saved, unless of course they renounce their own will and reconcile with the Church. |

| | Heresy |
| | A heresy is an error in matters of faith which denies an official teaching of the Church. | | | This heresy accepted the Logos as the Son of God by saying that he was similar to the Father. | | | During the fourth and fifth centuries, the Church was challenged by several heresies which questioned the nature of the Person of Christ and the Trinity. |

| | The Great Heresies |
| | This heresy arose when a group of people known as iconoclasts (literally, "icon smashers") appeared, who claimed that it was sinful to make pictures and statues of Christ and the saints, despite the fact that in the Bible, God had commanded the making of religious statues (Ex. | | | Finally, the doubt or denial involved in heresy must concern a matter that has been revealed by God and solemnly defined by the Church (for example, the Trinity, the Incarnation, the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist, the sacrifice of the Mass, the pope’s infallibility, or the Immaculate Conception and Assumption of Mary). | | | There is some doubt whether Nestorius himself held the heresy his statements imply, and in this century, the Assyrian Church of the East, historically regarded as a Nestorian church, has signed a fully orthodox joint declaration on Christology with the Catholic Church and rejects Nestorianism. |

| | Beyond Heresy? |
| | There are many who would view heresy as “much ado about nothing,” for their denial and rejection of the singular Self-revelation of God in His Son, Jesus Christ, does not establish an orthodox confession of faith by which to establish an antithesis in heresy. | | | All legitimate Christian references to “heresy” must contextually retain the ecclesiological and eschatological understanding of the singularity of Christ and His Body, the Church, and the singular gospel message entrusted to the church. | | | Christians, however, who remain true to the scriptural standard and the essential traditions of their past, maintain that the determination of “heresy” has a legitimate place in the context of the Church of Jesus Christ. |

| | Team Hammer's Musings: Heresy |
| | A study of the history of the church shows that the struggle against heresy within the church was of prime importance in the second and third century A.D. What makes this a significant note is that the church was suffering its worst years of persecution at the same time. | | | Heresy is what the minority believe; it is the name given by the powerful to the doctrine of the weak. | | | While the government and the populace was oppressing the church physically from without, the primary concern of the church leaders was the internal batlle against heresy. |

| | Heresy |
| | Heresy therefore remains in theory a denial of orthodox doctrine, which is itself based upon scripture and the rule of faith (or the creeds), but in practice, attempts to purge the church of heresy involved questions of ecclesiastical authority and of the relation of the church to the Roman empire. | | | Ignatius of Antioch termed theological error a heresy and, in the later Church, heresy, as deliberate adherence to 'false' doctrine, was condemned as sinful. | | | It was the centralized church organized by Constantine after 313 A.D. that was responsible for cateloging and punishing heresy as unsound doctrine or practice, as compared with what the Constantinian church defined as the sound doctrines and practices of their orthodoxy. |

| | The negative effect of this traditional understanding of heresy upon the unity of the Church is obvious. | | | The essence of heresy is not disagreement about doctrinal positions or about allegiances to church organizations. | | | This can be illustrated from the scriptures regarding the response of the Jewish authorities, who certainly represented the "authorized" religious tradition of their day, to Jesus and His followers. |

| | Heresy has the ability to damn because they have the ability to confuse the gospel sufficiently to make it powerless. | | | The word "heresy" comes from the Greek hairesis which means "choosing," or "faction." At first, the term heresy did not carry the negative meaning it does now. | | | Out of necessity, the church was forced to deal with these heresies by proclaiming orthodoxy. |

| | A 'heresy' is an 'inauthentic' or 'illegitimate' doctrine; a 'tenet,' by contrast, is an 'official' or 'essential' doctrine. | | | A 'sect'is a group that 'deviates' from the norm and separates from the church; a 'denomination,' by contrast, is an 'official' or legitimate subgroup of a church. | | | In other words, 'sects' and 'heresies' are religious groups and doctrines of which we disapprove...A sect must be small enough to be a distinctive part of a larger religious body." |

| | Examples of heresies include the Mormon doctrine that there are many gods, and that you may become one, as well as the Jehovah's Witnesses, who clearly deny the Trinity. | | | They are destructive because they overturn the basic elements which make up the historic Christian faith, substituting in their place doctrines which distort or contradict the teachings found in the Bible. | | | They represent the core of Christian belief as contained within the pages of Scripture, and they compose what is commonly called "orthodox theology." And thus, heresies are teachings which openly deny any one of these fundamental doctrines. |

| | The heresy is rarely articulated, but our leadership promotes aspects of it and many in the church resonate to its fundamental claims. | | | Suffice it to say, in light of the great theological tradition of the church, the ecstatic perspective is a heresy. | | | In the orthodox view, the church is constituted by those who have been called by the incarnate Jesus Christ and conformed to that Word by the Spirit. |

| | SSPX.ca: Angelus: A Little Catechism on Sedevacantism |
| | The main difficulty of sedevacantism is to explain how the Church can continue to exist in a visible manner (for she has received from the Lord the promise that she will endure until the end of the world) while being deprived of her head. | | | The expression "una cum" in the Canon of the Mass does not mean that one affirms that he is "in communion" with the erroneous ideas of the pope, but rather that one wants to pray for the Church "and for" the pope, her visible head. | | | The reason is that, whereas a physical head cannot influence the members without receiving the vital influx of the soul, a moral head, as is the Roman Pontiff, can exercise jurisdiction over the Church even if he does not receive from the soul of the Church any influx of interior faith or charity. |

| | The Protestant Reformation created new churches that at first campaigned against heresy from their own doctrinal bases; over time, however, the Roman Catholic church has remained the only Christian body that has continued with any frequency, on the basis of canon law, to prosecute heretics. | | | The heretic considers himself or herself not only a church member but, in a doctrinal controversy, the true believer; indeed, some persons originally labeled heretical were rehabilitated after once abhorred views become accepted. | | | Heresy is also distinguished from schism, which is a splitting of or from the church brought about by disputes over hierarchy or discipline, rather than over matters of doctrine. |

| | BURNING SOULS FORUM - "Heresy" - Unofficial Nine Inch Nails Discussion & News Resource |
| | # 240,745 on Monday - Jan 23 2006 - 06:41:43 AM I was wondering the thoughts and interpretations people had of "Heresy." At first I took a literal interpretation; a basic schopenhauer-esque nihilistic view of the world; that there is no God, no reason for living and upon death we cease to be. | | | In order for God to have died, wouldn't there have had to have been a God at some point? | | | So I was thinking the song could mean (1) there is a God, but God doesn't care about human suffering, and is therefore "dead" or (2) saying God is dead is a metaphor, meaning humanity, as a whole, is cold and selfish, without love for one another. |
