The only thing that we know about Noetus and Praxeas' teachings were what the "victors" wrote about them... i.e. Hyppolytus primarily. Again, I have some resources available to me, but not at my immediate disposal, that peices together the doctrine of Noetus and Praxeas from the antagonistic writings against them.
You keep mentioning the 1st and 2nd century writings, I have suggested several times that they were destroyed along with the 3rd and 4th century "heretical" writings... that is "heretical" according to the Roman Catholic church. Now we know that EVERYTHING the Roman Catholic church teaches and holds to are biblical absolutes, and EVERYTHING that disagrees with the Catholic dogma is "heresy" right? Are we in agreement with that?  |
It would be helpful if you could prove that these document were destroyed. Honestly, it is a weak argument. I agree that the Roman Catholic church teaches some heresies. Which is why we have the reformations, all of which were Trinitairan.
