Nestorious' troubles

Nestorius’ Troubles

-Nestorius was accused of heresy for preaching his specific brand of Christianity

-He and his followers were banished from the Byzantine Empire, and other religious and political institutions gave him sanctuary

-He soon outraged the Roman and Byzantine worlds with his unorthodox doctrines.

 

 

Now I will go aside from all the facts and figures, which I find tiring to read and really boring.
I am going to compare the doctrines of Nestorian Christian's to Mormonism that we see today.

Among the Christian community, Mormonism is not considered a truth or a respected culture and religion. In fact, my Dad is a pastor, and when I asked him why Mormonism was so "bad" in his mind, he was completely speechless and asked me to look up their doctrines. And so I did.

They believe in Jesus too, but they added on more information to kind of change the scriptures a little. Basically they look to more than the bible for answers.

I feel that I can compare this to Nestorian Christians. Nestorius kind of created his own rules, and went against the flow. And his ideas were not really accepted in the world at his present time. So his culture really wasn't respected, and he was given a lot of hate and was pushed aside for that.

I think Mormonism is quite the same, except in this society today, we are taught to accept one another for what the other believes, even if we do not think they are right.
