One minor (in relation to the article) but significant point. It seems to me that all of "orthodox" Christianity affirms the doctrine of original sin: Pentecostals, Southern Baptists, PCA and ARP Presbyterians, Missouri- and Wisconsin-Synod Lutherans, RCA, Wesleyans, Holiness, and of course the Orthodox, among others. It is only within the Situation-Ethicist "liberal" denominations, such as the American Baptists, the PCUSA Presbyterians, ELCA Lutherans, and the United Methodists where one finds the disavowel of original sin, along with the virgin birth, the divinity of Christ, and the necessity for divine atonement.

Catholics, Orthodox, and Protestants who affirm, explicitly or implicitly, the doctrines of the Nicene Creed (we can debate filioque another time :> ) may differ in numerous ways--many of which might be considered adiaphora--but when it comes to the heresies as listed in this article, they are just as anathema to the "orthodox" outside of the Catholic Church as to those inside.

Jews who keep the law, would, in theory, not be in need of divine grace.

Pelagius had a list of Biblical characters who were free from sin. That included the Virgin Mary, Enoch who was translated, and a few others.

Not that i disagree with anything in particular but it is easy to see the reason for the disagreements on the God head.

But i think i will just read the Bible and not get caught up in Church doctrine.

Jesus tells me in plain and few words what i need to know and do be saved and i have a hard time even doing that much.

Good information, but it’s unfortunate the author misunderstands the origin and purpose of the Society of St. Pius X.

Every heresy can find its root in one of the three lies Satan told Eve to tempt her.

One thing I do know is how important to declare 1John4 which is what Apostles Creed and Nicene Creed is all about with the basics of Gospel.

When I challenge a woman deep into the "Spell Casting" and "tarot card reading. " She got me mad when I was helping her husband to move. She decided to "read" me. I covered the Blood of Christ over this as she still insisted that demonic process. Manifestions were resulted. I finally challenge her that she was not a Christian if we practice such " nonsense." We'll to cut to the chase she could not declare Christ came in the Flesh/human as literally words or in the Creeds. When she got to born of a virgin she would contort and stutter that there were " many Gods" . It really opened my eyes even more how the " devil" is making inroads. She was born Christian.

By the way please pray for her she is in a great delusion.
