As we head towards #TrinitySunday and the inevitable "LOL all these preacherz doing heresiez" theology shaming, as someone [checks bookshelf] who did an entire PhD on topic of heresy and orthodoxy, here's short rundown on how I've seen "heresy" normally used on this website: 1/
"My idealized presentation of my theological understanding contrasted with an unfaithful representation of yours" 2/
"Startled and threatened by a theological topic I had never heard of before that challenges something in me, I find a way to associate yours, even tangentially, with something discredited rather than engage it" 3/
A POEM ABOUT THE HOLY TRINITY AND US
(by St John of the Cross)
~thread~
1. Out of the love immense and bright
That from the two had thus begun,
Words of ineffable delight
The Father spoke unto the Son:
Words of so infinite a rapture...

2. Their drift by none could be explained:
Only the Son their sense could capture
That only to Himself pertained.
What of them we can sense the clearest
Was in this manner said and thought:
Out of Your company, my Dearest,
I can be satisfied by nought.

3. But if aught please me, I as duly
In You, Yourself, the cause construe.
The one who satisfies Me truly
Is him who most resembles You.
He who in nought resembles You
Shall find of Me no trace or sign,
Life of My Life! for only through
Your own can I rejoice in mine. #poem

In his ‘Confessio’ St Patrick writes about the Trinity:

1.There is no other God, nor ever was, nor will be, than God the Father
• Unbegotten
• Without beginning
• From whom is all beginning
• Who upholds all things, as we have been taught.

2. And His Son Jesus Christ
• Whom we acknowledge to have been always with the Father
• Who before the beginning of the world was spiritually present with the Father
• Begotten in an unspeakable manner before all beginning

3.• By Him are made all things visible and invisible.
• He was made man, and
• Having defeated death, was received into heaven by the Father
• And He has given Him a name which is above all names
• That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow
