== Apostolic age ==

*
== Early Church age ==
=== Marcionism ===
* denied the Old Testament God
* held that Christ was divine only and only appeared as a Man, was not
=== Montanism ===
* or "New Prophesy"
* believed that God spoke to followers who were inspired by the Holy Spirit
* Montanus and his followers were known to "babble" while claiming to be filled with the Holy Spirit
* Montanus had two followers who also claimed gifts of prophesy, Prisca and Maximilla, two women who with Montanus claimed ecstatic visions
* they told followers to fast excessively in order to experience the same visions
* Montanus likely hung himself, as did Maximilla.
* afterwards, Prisca led the movement, which passed along to Quintilla, who claimed that Eve was heroic for having eaten of the Tree of Knowledge and followed the Hebrew prophetess Miriam (sister of Moses) as rationale for female priests
** the movement became a form of Gnosticism
=== Pelagianism ===
* Pelagius argued that when born humans are not subject to Original Sin
** and therefore had entire powers of a free will
** sin, therefore, was a choice and avoidable
* the movement fell into asceticism as way of proof of one's purity
== Medieval age ==
== Modern age ==
=== Modernism ===
* Pius IX and X warned of the dangers of modernism
