I have had a few questions about what will be on the quiz on this coming Saturday. I don't want to give too much away, but I don't want to trick you either.
SOOOO ... you are responsible for the chapters in the Quash/Ward book on heresies, which include Adoptionism, Doceticism and Gnosticism. The required chapters are on mhgs.edu (the e-reserve), but you are also suppose to read one other chapter. I would suggest you choose one of the following: chapter 1 (Arianism, which we have discussed in class, so it is fair game), chapter 3 (Nestorianism, which is on the vocab list, so it is fair game) or chapter 9 (Pelagianism, just good to know, and may make an appearance on the quiz).
You are also responsible for all the heresies included in the vocab list: pantheism, modalism, pluralism (in some forms) and tritheism. You might also want to be familiar with the definition of heresy itself (always useful).
Remember, you can always study with other people in the class (either in person or over email). Split up the work. Have each person research one or two heresies and give a report to the group. And, always have a dictionary to hand so that you can look up specifics.
Bonne chance!
