DTS ST5102 Exam Two Study GuideAngel of the LORD - correct answer ✔✔This being appears in OT to function as theophany or
Christophany, but this is not true for every occasion.
Apollinarianism - correct answer ✔✔Jesus Christ's humanity was limited to body and emotions, not a
human "higher soul"; thus, Jesus was divine only in his higher immaterial being, God on the inside, man
on the outside; deemed heretical.
Arianism - correct answer ✔✔A belief based on the teachings of the 4th century theologian Arius which
maintained that Jesus Christ was the highest of all created beings, similar nature (homoiousios) but not
the same nature (homoousios) with God the Father; thus the Son is considered a god but not
consubstantial with the Father; deemed heretical.
"Beginning of the creation of God" (Jesus) Rev 3:14 KJV, meaning? - correct answer ✔✔Jesus' self-
description as the "arche" of God's creation carries the sense of the "beginner," "originator," "source,"
and "sovereign" of divine creation with rich implications regarding the Son's eternal inheritance and
dominion.
Chalcedonian Creed (Definitio Fidei)/Council (451) - correct answer ✔✔Chalcedonian Creed (Definitio
Fidei=Faithful Definition) affirms that Jesus Christ possesses fully both a human nature (excepting sin)
and a divine nature in a singular personal consciousness.
'Ehad - correct answer ✔✔"Ehad" has two main meanings: 1) one, 2) united. It came from the Hebrew
verbal root "be united" which stresses unity while recognizing diversity within oneness. It is often used
to refer to the God of Israel.
"Yahid" is another Hebrew word that means one, without the united meaning as Ehad does. It is never
used to describe God in OT.
The point is, the Hebrew language has a word that could more forcefully exclude plurality within God,
but the OT writers by the Spirit never employ it of God's oneness.
, Anhypostasis - correct answer ✔✔Articulated by Cyril of Alexandria, the divine and human are so united
in Jesus that there would be no (an-) human nature (hypostasis) without the divine; that is, there would
never have been a human Jesus without the divine Logos assuming that human nature.
Eternal Generation of Son - correct answer ✔✔The Nicean and Christian tradition affirms the eternal
generation of the Son from the Father, as expression of Ps 2:7 ("today I have begotten you") and its
citations in the NT and, again, the Greek monogenes (only begotten or one and only).
Eutychianism - correct answer ✔✔Christ had "two natures before, but only one after, the Union" in the
Incarnation; the divine and human natures commingled, each assuming the characteristics of the other;
deemed heretical.
Father God, primary roles - correct answer ✔✔1. The Divine Source of all
2. Sovereign Ruler
3. Holy Judge
4. Compassionate Reconciler
5. Him to Whom All Things Return
Firstborn (Prototokos): 2 meanings - correct answer ✔✔Prototokos has two meanings, "One born first",
or "one who possessed the supremacy, with the legal rights of the firstborn". Jesus Christ is firstborn,
meaning Christ has supremacy over all creations.
Fons Totius Divinitas - correct answer ✔✔God the Father is the ultimate divine source or grounds for all
created existence. God the Father is the ingenerate source and ground of the Trinity itself.
Hypostatic Union - correct answer ✔✔The two natures in the one person (hypostatis) of Jesus Christ,
that is, two categorically different natures (the infinite divine and the finite human) coexist in the one
consciousness of the Savior.
Immaculate Conception - correct answer ✔✔Mary (not Jesus in this case) was miraculously conceived
without a sinful nature, the miracle of absolute sinlessness is pushed back to Mary's own otherwise
natural conception so that she be the sinless vessel of the Savior's flesh.
