The Docetic Church of Belisaria is a Nontrinitarian christian faith, believing that there’s only one God, whom send The Christ, a purely spiritual entity who was not one with his Father. The Christ , being a totaly divine entity, could not have been human, since God lacked a material body, which therefore could not physically suffer. Jesus only appeared to be a flesh-and-blood man; his body was a phantasm. It is the first Church of Drevstan in the number of adherents, slightly before the Orthodox Church, but only possess small communities in the rest of the world, remaining a very Drevstranese phenomenon.
Docetism developed and spread out from the historical Lushyodorstag, in modern day Drevstran. It has profoundly affected the culture of Drevstran, from its philosophy to its arts, and of the Lush peoples specifically, whom were historically either Docetics or Albans. To this day, the majority of the Church's members are Lushs, even if the Gothic people make up a significant minority alongside them, and the faith had spread to the Ludz during the Triple-Crown and other eras of Lush domination.
Name
Docetism comes from the greek dókēsis, meaning "apparition, phantom". The word Dokētaí ("Illusionists") referring to early groups who denied Jesus's humanity. As a result, Docetism was broadly defined as any teaching that claims that Jesus' body was either absent or illusory.
Doctrine
The early Docetic Church was greatly influenced by Marcionism as it was originaly founded by wandering Marcionists scholars who found refuges in the Lushyodorstag. But afterwhile, the Church evolved and diverged from other Marcionists schools to become a full fledged religion of its own, re-integrating the old testament to the Bible and abandoning the Antithesis, possibly under the influence of Orthodox Christianity.
Nature of God
The Docetic Church holds that there is one eternal God, who exists as a single indivisible Monadic entity. Docetians believe that Jesus is the Messiah, a spiritual entity sent by the Monad to reveal the truth about existence, thus allowing humanity to be forgiven of its sins and find their place alongside the Aeons. The Christ, therefore, is understood as being fully divine, without a human nor physical nature, and thus only an aspect of Him. His body is thought to have been a phantasm, with no material reality to it.
Iconoclasm
The Docetic Church teaches that, God being a completely spiritual entity, cannot have taken a mortal or physical form. Docetians are thus forbidden from creating icons and other physical representation of God or of the Messiah.
