Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simon Magus , the first heretic who disturbed the Church, was born in a part of Samaria called Githon or Gitthis. He was called Magus, or the Magician, because he made use of spells to deceive the multitude; and hence he acquired among his countrymen the extraordinary name of “The Great Power of God” (Acts, viii, 1 0). “This man is the power of God which is called great.” Seeing that those on whom the Apostles Peter and John laid hands received the Holy Ghost, he offered them money to give to him the power of communicating the Holy Ghost in like manner; and on that account the detestable crime of selling holy things is called Simony. He went to Rome, and there was a statue erected to him in that city, a fact which St. Justin, in his first Apology, flings in the face of the Romans : “ In your royal city,” he says, “ he (Simon) was esteemed a God, and a statue was erected to him in the Island of the Tyber, between the two bridges, bearing this Latin inscription SIMONI, DEO SANCTO.”
Download or read book The Heresy of Heresies written by Timothy M. Mosteller and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-10-14 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The heresy of heresies was common sense.” —George Orwell, 1984. This book is a defense of common-sense realism, which is the greatest heresy of our time. Following common-sense philosophers like Thomas Aquinas, G. K. Chesterton, C. S. Lewis, Dallas Willard, and J. P. Moreland, this book defends a common-sense vision of reality within the Christian tradition. Mosteller shows how common-sense realism is more reasonable than the materialist, idealist, pragmatist, existentialist, and relativist spirits of our age. It maintains that we can know the nature of reality through common-sense experience and that this knowledge has profound implication for living the good life and being a good person.

Download or read book Transcendental Heresies written by David Faflik and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a moment when the requirements of belief and unbelief were being negotiated in unexpected ways, transcendentalism allowed for a more creative approach to spiritual questions. Interrogating the movement's alleged atheistic underpinnings, David Faflik contends that transcendentalism reconstituted the religious sensibilities of 1830s and 1840s New England, producing a dynamic and complex array of beliefs and behaviors that cannot be categorized as either religious or nonreligious. Rather than "the latest form of infidelity," as one contemporary described it, adherents viewed their unconventional and distinct spiritual practices as a modern religion. Transcendental Heresies draws on an expansive antebellum archive of period commentary and writings by transcendentalism's practitioners, including Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, Theodore Parker, Margaret Fuller, and the women of transcendentalism's second and third waves. From Boston to Concord to the heady environs of Harvard, the species of unbelief they practiced multiplied the religious possibilities of the era, expressing misgivings about traditional notions of divinity, flouting religion's customary forms, and ultimately encouraging spiritual questioning.
Download or read book The Great Heresies written by Hilaire Belloc and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2017-06-22 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this new edition of a classic work, the great Catholic apologist and historian Hilaire Belloc examines the five most destructive heretical movements in Christianity: Arianism, Mohammedanism (Islam), Albigensianism, Protestantism, and Modernism. Belloc describes how these movements began, how they spread, and how they have continued to influence the world. He accurately predicts the re- emergence of militant Islam and its violent aggression against Western civilization. When we hear the word "heresies", we tend to think of distant centuries filled with religious quarrels that seemed important at the time but are no longer relevant. Belloc shows that the heresies of olden times are still with us, sometimes under different names and guises, and that they still shape our world.
Download or read book A Brief Description of Heretics written by Ephraim Pagitt and published by Puritan Publications. This book was released on 2015-04-05 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is one of Pagitt's most famous and was originally written in over 400 pages (the longer version). This "cliff note" version describes the most important aspects of various heresies, and was republished after the longer work was circulating. Pagitt succinctly covers heretical groups such as the Jesuits, Socinians, Arminians, Anabaptists, Pelagians, Seperatists and many others. At the end of the work is attached a public "ordinance" which the magistrate enforced on any heretics of the day. Added to this current volume is this very important sermon on what the bible teaches concerning heresy. Sedgwick explains the nature of heresy (and defines what is and is not heresy), the danger of heresy, the greatness of the danger of heresies, and then concludes with three uses in application. This is not a scan or facsimile, has been updated in modern English for easy reading and has an active table of contents for electronic versions.
