There have been Point of view and original research concerns raised about True christianity. If this is an official doctrine of one of the branches of Christianity, I'm sure we can clean it up to meet Wikipedia's standards. Check any of the articles in Category:Christian theology for examples. Grigory Deepdelver AKA ArcholaTalk 23:20, 26 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

O.k. I get it now. I thought I was making those appear since I was trying to erase it myself.

The New Church vs. Swedenborgianism

edit

Jason,

I agree, I'd rather have everything under "The New Church"; but it would also be nice if everything could be consolidated into one page. Maybe that's something to bring up on the Swedenborgianism talk page? You could make all "Swedenborgianism" links link to the New Church page, and maybe the title could be something like "The New Church (Swedenborgianism)".

The reason I changed a bunch of things is that they used to link to "New Church," not "The New Church", and the "New Church" link used to send you to "General Church of the New Jerusalem," when the things mentioned applied to all branches of the church and weren't specifically General Church-ish. I changed it to link to Swedenborgianism; I'll go change it to The New Church if you haven't done that already.

The problem is, Coleman, that there are people watching over the Swedenborgianism page and will not allow it to become something which represents the New Church. Swedenborgianism and "The New Church" are different in my mind and I think they should be. I think the article I wrote for The New Church is really good, and people would not accept it as representing all of Swedenborgianism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jasonschnarr (talkcontribs)

Hello Jason - I have merged "Swedenborgianism" with your New Church article. It looks like it has not been touched in a while, and it needs cleanup, so I will gradually be adding more sections with references. I have also been removing POV statements.

Servetus and Swedenborg

edit

Hi, I am reverting your editions in the Servetus page because Servetus came before Swedenborg. Therefore it is inaccurate that his theology resembles that of Swedenborg, because Swedenborg was not born yet. I suggest that you edit the Swedenborg article adding that his theology seemed similar to that of Servetus, or he was inspired by it, or whatever, but it is anachronistic to say that someone who was born two hundred years before is similar to what another person wrote later. --jofframes 20:29, 5 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

"If the Oneness Pentecstal thing stays then so should this. It is the same thing. Those with similar more modern theology should be allowed to be brought up under "modern relevance"
I have no objection to the reference to Swedenborg staying ... in fact I think it should! However, the comment of 'jofframes' (Jdemarcos?) above needs to be considered ... is it more correct to say that Servetus has affinities with Swedenborg, or to say that Swedenborg has affinities with Servetus? (From my perspective, I would say that Oneness Pentecostalism has affinities with Servetus' theology, not the other way around). I think the person who deleted the reference to Swedenborg was suggesting it be reworded, not omitted altogether. Rev107 13:07, 11 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the reference, but I cannot find the book in that website, only Hillar's study. I hope that they ship to Spain.
Please have a close look at Restitutio regarding Christ's conception. In Servetus it is much more complex than modalism. It is through his Sonship that Jesus is God, but it can only be fully understood if we take into account that the spirit of God pervades all things, and that every human being is called to be raised to the divine. --jofframes 20:47, 11 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
