Do You Know, Your Heretics?
I lived from AD 250
(256) until AD 336. I lived in
Alexandria, Egypt. I served as a presbyter in a church in Alexandria.
I developed the “teaching”
that the Christ was not truly divine but was actually a created being. I
reasoned that God was so unique in the fact that He alone is self-existent and
immutable. I taught that the Son was not self-existent and therefore could not
be God. As a result the Son, or Jesus Christ must have been a created being. I
was opposed to Trinitarian teaching.
Who am I?
Do you know your heretics?
It' is time to play - name that heretic!

ReplyDeleteI was going to say T.D. Jakes...but, I know he's not that old.
ReplyDeletePersis beat me to it and Eddie made me double over. :-)
ReplyDeleteGuess I have to start checking the old blog sites earlier if I want to get in on this. Everyone else already chimed in. Maybe I can get points for pointing out the "Super Man" to this "Lex Luthor." Athanasius.
ReplyDeleteI googled it and Arius seems to be the one.
ReplyDeleteI googled it too, and came up with Arius. Great game! Happy Monday1 ☺

ReplyDeleteThis is a topic that I don't know much of anything about. I've never even heard of Arius.
