Bible Note: Hi Doc A little deeper clarification if you don't mind. you said in regard to Christian ( orthodoxy ) "In theology, when we use the word, we mean the essential doctrines of the Christian faith. 1) Does this refer to the most basic doctrines that all denominations can agree on or are they the doctrines of only certain denominations? What I am seeking for is the understanding of who is being specifically spoken of. 2) When you say ( orthodoxy ) would this be the same as I would say Christendom meaning all Christians regardless of denomination? Where I would be speaking about or on behalf of the Christian Faith in the general sense. 3) In your using the word ( orthodoxy ) does it encompass the Pentecostals and Catholics within this term because of the differences found in their doctrinal beliefs? you say ( heterodoxy ) "We use the word to mean those teachings that are contrary to orthodoxy." 4) Is it as simple as a different or other opinion or thinking? Or does it lean more in the direction of heresy idolatrous schismatic unorthodox something more on the order of contrary to and opposite in nature or character to the held theology? The reason I ask is that neither the term ( Christian orthodoxy ) nor the word ( heterodoxy ) have a very benign sound to them. Forgive me for saying it this way but they convey the feeling of being very staid and absolutely without any room for question. In Jesus lightedsteps |
