OFFICIAL LOGO OF ACD

ASSUMPTION COLLEGE OF DAVAO
OFFICIAL LOGO
The meaning:
  • logo of the MA at the center of the sail shows the continued inspiration the congregation gives the school.
  • cross on top of the sail signifies how a strong faith in God and its salvific message continues to be the motivation of the school.
  • colors blue and white depicts the Marian character of the school, that of being hopeful, joyful and simple.

The seal thus tries to depict the following elements of the school’s mission:

  • Its journeying with the Filipino people for social transformation
  • Its being inspired by the m.a.’s
  • Its being motivated by faith
  • Its Marian character

CHRISTOLOGY HERESIES

CHRISTOLOGICAL HERESIES/CONTROVERSIES

Jesus Christ is true God and true man. During the first centuries, the Church had to defend and clarify this truth of faith against those falsified it.

Heresy is an erroneous theological teaching or opinion that contradicts the teachings of the Church.

1. Gnostic Docetism – held that Jesus’ humanity was merely an illusion, thus denying the incarnation.

The Church from the very beginning insisted on the true incarnation of God’s Son “come in the flesh” (1John 4:2-3; 2 John 7)

2. Adoptionism – held that Jesus had been a man whom God adopted as his own Son.

The Church from the beginning affirmed that Jesus Christ is Son of God by nature and not by adoption.

3. Arianism – the fourth century heresy that denied the divinity of Jesus Christ. According to Arius, the Son is only a creature, made out of nothing, like all other created beings.

This heresy was condemned by the Church and declared Arius as heretic and affirmed the teaching that Christ is true God and true man.

4. Nestorianism – a fifth century heresy that held there were two persons (distinct) persons in the Incarnate Christ, one human and the other divine.

This was condemned by the Church through the Council of Ephesus and affirms the teaching that Christ was a divine person who assumed a human nature.

5. Monophysitism – affirmed that the human nature had ceased to exist as such in Christ when the divine person of God’s Son assumed it. It other words, he is only God not human.

The Church declared that Jesus is true God and true man. He has two natures, not confused but united in the one person of the God’s Son. He is fully human, like us in all ways except sin.



CHRISTOLOGICAL COUNCILS OF THE CHURCH

Ecumenical Council is an assembly of the Bishops of the World in which matters of faith and morality are discussed.

There 21 Ecumenical Council of the Church:

Council of Nicaea 1 (325AD) – the first
Vatican II (1965 AD) – the 21st

1. Council of Nicaea 1 (325 AD) – Condemned Arianism, defined that the Son of God is consubstantial (one in being) with the Father, formulated the Nicene Creed.

2. Council of Ephesus (431 AD) – Condemned Nestorianism. Defended the right of Mary to be called the Mother of God.

3. Council of Chalcedon (451 AD) – Condemned Monophysitism by defining that Christ had two distinct natures, and was therefore true God and true Man.
