The Error of Origen

 Origen slipped up with his ‘hypostases’ (material substances of divine beings). Woefully all the churches eventually followed this Neoplatonist philosophical error. Acts 17:29 “Therefore since we are God’s offspring, we should not think that the divine being is like gold or silver or a stone image or a craft of human design and skill.” This following of a philosophy based on Neoplatonism apparently led to Trinitarianism. Colossians 2:8 “See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ.”
