The Trinity Doctrine: Help me out, Christians
RE: The Trinity Doctrine: Help me out, Christians
Quote:
  • Dyophysitism understands Christ as having two natures that exist in one person. This is the position of the council of Chalcedon (451), the Roman Catholic Church and many Protestant churches.

  • Miaphysitism understands Christ as having only one nature—but that this nature includes both humanity and divinity.

  • Monophysitism (word-wise, the more precise opposite of Dyophysitism) understood Christ as having only a single nature, and this nature was either divine or a human/divine synthesis.

  • Docetism holds that Christ only appears to be human.

  • Adoptionism holds that Christ was a man—but one who was chosen by God.

  • Nestorianism stressed the distinction between the divine and the human Christs so much so that it appeared that two persons were living in the same body.

  • Eutychianism stressed the unity of Christ's nature—but to such an extent that Christ's divinity consumed his humanity...as the ocean consumes a drop of vinegar.

What's amazing is how people died because of this happy horseshit.  All of it just words on a page.
