The theory that Jesus had a human body and soul, but that the Logos took the place of the human spirit or mind in Jesus. Solemnly condemned at the Council of Constantinople in 381. http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/01615b.htm More Info Rate It Arianism [Catholic Encyclopedia] [Look] - -Founded by Arius, belief asserting that Christ was not God like the Father, but a creature made in time. Rejected by the Council of Constantinople (381). http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/01707c.htm More Info Rate It Docetae [Catholic Encyclopedia] [Look] - -Docetism, from the Greek "dokeo" (to seem, to appear) was the contention that Christ merely seemed to be human and only appeared to be born, to suffer, to die, etc. Already in New Testament times, the Gospel of John opposes Docetism, and so do Ignatius, Irenaeus, and other Fathers. http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/05070c.htm More Info Rate It Ebionites [Catholic Encyclopedia] [Look] - -Two varieties: the earlier group called Ebionites denied the divinity of Christ; the later Ebionites were a Gnostic sect who believed that matter was eternal and was God's body. http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/05242c.htm More Info Rate It Heresies, Authority, Quarrels and Words [Look] - -An account and analysis of belief systems declared heretical by the Catholic Church. Site is sharply critical of authority and religion, and especially of the Church. http://www.abelard.org/heresies/heresies.htm More Info Rate It Marcionites [Catholic Encyclopedia] [Look] - -Said that the creator "god" of the Old Testament was not the good God and Father of Jesus Christ of the New Testament.

Monarchianism, properly speaking, refers to the Modalists. Denial of the Trinity, assertion that there is only one Divine Person, who appears in three different roles.
