As the name implies, the Monarchianism brought out the unity of the Godhead. (Literally, a "monarch" is a "unique leader".)
Indeed, it was a reaction against the many gods of the Gnostics and Marcion two gods: the God of the Old Testament, whom they regarded as an evil God and Christ, a God of love. As with so often with reactionary movements, went to the opposite extreme, and as a result, it became a heresy that the church later felt it necessary to condemn.
trend that characterized the Monarchianism may have served largely to eliminate the teaching of the Gnostic Church, but the cure was almost as bad as the disease intended to remedy.
Monarchianism Fighting began in the late second century and continued well into the third.
Monarchians There were two classes: the dynamic (a term that comes from a Greek word meaning "power"), who taught that a divine power animating the human body Jesus - Jesus was not supposed to own divinity itself and lacked a truly human soul - and manners, which conceived of a God who was revealed in different ways.
In order to maintain the unity of the Godhead, dynamic flatly denied divinity of Christ, whom they regarded as a mere man chosen by God to be the Messiah and had been elevated to a level of deity. According to the adoption - a variant of this theory - the man Jesus accomplished the perfection and was adopted as the Son of God at His baptism.
The modalists taught that a God had been revealed in different ways. Denying difference personality, completely abandoned the belief in a triune God in nature. Accept the true divinity of both the Father and the Son, but hastened to explain that both were only different designations for the same divine being.
This position is sometimes called Patripassianism because it meant that the Father became the Son in the Incarnation and, therefore, suffered and died as the Christ. Similarly, in the resurrection the Son became the Holy Spirit. This theory is also called Sabellianism because its most famous exponent was Sabellius. The Sabellians argued that the names of the Trinity were mere designations by which the same divine person performs different cosmic functions. They argued that before the incarnation the divine was the Father in the incarnation the Father became the Son and the Son in the resurrection became the Holy Spirit.
early third century, Tertullian refuted modalistic Monarchianism out both the personality of the Son of God as the unity of the Godhead. However, thought that Christ was God in a subordinate sense. This theory is known as subordination.
A mid-third century, Origen proposed the theory of eternal generation. She said only the Father is God in the most exalted. The Son is eternal with the Father, but is "God" only in a derivative sense. Origen believed that the soul of Christ, like all human souls, according to their misconception - pre-existed but was different from all others by being pure and not have fallen. The Logos, or Divine Word, grew up in indissoluble union with the human soul of Jesus.
Distinguishing between theos (God) and ho theos (God) John 1: 1, Origen concluded that the Son is God in a primitive and absolute sense, but "God" only by virtue of having received side of divinity degree could be called theos, but not ho theos. Would, therefore, Christ in the middle of the road between created things that are not. Sources
can be called the father of Arianism.
