Bart D. Ehrman: Early Christian Diversity & the Rise of Orthodoxy

Video Description

Check Bart’s course Earliest Christian Heresies 👉 https://mythvisionpodcast.com/early-christian-heresies Before there was “orthodoxy,” there was chaos. In this MythVision conversation, Bart D. Ehrman unpacks the explosive diversity of the first centuries: Marcionites (two Gods, Paul-only canon), Jewish Christians (Torah forever), Gnostics (hidden wisdom), and Docetists (Jesus not truly human). We trace how rival groups used different scriptures (or the same texts, read differently), why Christianity uniquely policed right belief, how “heresy”/“orthodoxy” became categories, and why the road to Nicaea took ~300 years. We also touch Bauer’s Orthodoxy & Heresy, claims about Serinthus & Revelation, and the politics of canon formation. If you want the real story behind Christianity’s “winners and losers,” this is it. ============================ FIND ALL LINKS HERE 👉 https://linktr.ee/mythvision ============================ RECOMMENDED ONLINE COURSES HERE 👉👉 Checkout MVP Courses to find new and upcoming online courses: https://mvp-courses.com/ Sign up for Dr. James Tabor’s Course, “The Quest for the Historical Paul: Apostle or Apostate?” - - https://mythvisionpodcast.com/historicalpaul Sign up for Dr. Kara Cooney’s Course, “Ancient Egyptian Cosmogony and Cosmology” - - https://mythvisionpodcast.com/egyptiancreation Sign up for Dr. Robyn Faith Walsh’s Course, “The Gospel Masterclass” - - https://mythvisionpodcast.com/gospels Sign up for Dr. James Tabor’s Course, “Jesus and The Dead Sea Scrolls” - - https://mythvisionpodcast.com/dss Sign up for Dr. Robyn Faith Walsh’s Course, “Unforgettable Footprints of the Pauline Legacy” - - https://mythvisionpodcast.com/paulslegacy Sign up for Dr. Dennis MacDonald’s Course, “Reading the Gospels with One Eye on Greek Poetry” - - https://mythvisionpodcast.com/homeric-mimesis Sign up for Dr. James Tabor’s Course, "Creating Jesus: Why Mark’s Gospel Was Forgotten?" - - https://www.mythvisionpodcast.com/firstgospel Sign up for Dr. Dale C.
