Monophysite in Systematic Theol. (the fruit of Mary's womb)

 
 
Reply Tue 4 Dec, 2007 04:57 pm
I was reading in of Gods and Men in Eqypt and ran across the term: Monophysite. I am sure you the debate as it developments only showed my Christian world towards the end of the second millenium concerning what Christ was or Christ in Church hist. has compelling if not morbid curiosity (isn't the most common topic.). Maybe there is some light to be shed on the the word's significance in what originally surrounded the debate.

Monophysite, the Nature of Messiah; and the fruit of Mary's womb
How about somebody tell me about this.
Make me understand it.

Maybe if you rendered your first paragraph in comprehensible English, you would get a more cogent response.

to someone who would like to figure this out,.
Was it really incoherent to
ask about the definition of a term I ran across ?
You know you could have phrased yourself and remarks in a much nicer
way ... Hey, I just joined so if you could help me please

Why don't you just rephrase the question in your next post?

Hi, Boss. Is that a Chanukah bone that puppy has there?

I wasn't suggesting that anyone delete anything. A coherent restatement of the question would help, though.

This is the portion of your original post to which i refer. What the Hell is that supposed to mean? Does it constitute the body of your question? Is it a comment on the subject of the question? Are you a native speaker of the English language?

A statement is identified as large AMOUNTS of DANCING about
Monophysite

What are we to make of the ideas about the Christ from Mary's womb?

You're not making any more sense with that response.

Here's a nice long article on the subject at the Catholic Encyclopedia. Make up your own mind about the subject, because i don't have a clue what it is that you are attempting to get at in dredging up an obscure 5th century controversy, and, apparently (it's not at all clear) asking what significance it has for Christianity at the end of the second millennium (one assumes that you mean the second millennium of Christianity).

Curious, obscure 5th century controversy CAUSES a difficulty
Is there a likelihood this could be what other cultures call the "demi-god" , right? ... Arrow

No, it's not. Some 5th century Christians thought your boy Jesus had two natures, a divine nature and a human nature. Other 5th century Christians maintained that he was two mints in one. No one was peddling any story about "demi-gods."

I suggest that you look up Nestorians, as the position of these important early Christians was the antithesis of the monophysite position. Nestorians were particularly important in the history of the early church, because they followed the trail of the Aramaic merchants who spread confessional Judaism to the east, to central Asia and as far as China. The Nestorians followed the same path and also eventually arrived in China.

Look up Christology, as well, as this is an issue of the Christology of those who believed in monophysitism, and those who did not.

Just out of curiosity, why gods and deities of Egypt? There is no distinction to be made between a "god" and a "deity."

Pres. Bill Clinton once said: " .. [that] depends on what the definition of "is" is" :~

That's correct in so far as a claim about a "demi-god" is concerned. No one in the 5th century was peddling any stories about a "demi-god." It seems (although with your English expression so poor, it is hard to be sure) that you took offense to my use of the verb "to peddle." I wasn't accusing you of anything, i was referring to the monophysite controversy in the 5th century.

You have never answered my question about whether or not English is your native language. It becomes more important as you continue to respond, because i don't know if you misunderstand me because of poor English language skills, and i am uncertain of what your responses are supposed to mean; while if you do claim to be a native speaker of English, i would be, regretfully, lead to assume that you are several bricks short of a full load.

These boards are all about hair splitting, (that's pretty much everyone) .IMHO, that makes it absolutely and perfectly ideal for this type of question
