“Grace to thee and peace from our Lord GOD, the Most Merciful, Singular, and Omnipotent.”

Owyn 8:2

 

Brethren in GOD:

 

It irks the Pontificate that such a degeneracy to that of this so-called cult of Xion plagues the spirit of GOD by the propagation of heresies. We the Pontificate, duly declare that the cult of Xion and all allies thereof are henceforth anathema and those who convert or sympathize with such heresies are subject to the wrath of GOD and His Exalted. In order to address the filth of this movement, we so duly declare that their dogma is indubitably heretical and therefore false upon its premises:

THE SYLLABUS OF ERRORS

☩

 

"We are born by the Dark;

Made Men by the Dark;

Undone by the Dark;

We fear the Old Dark."

 

I. There exists no such ‘dark’ entity as prescribed by the heretical teachings of Xionism, to which we so duly condemn by these presence. The Word of GOD is law, deriving from Himself through the revelations of the Exalted Prophets through the covenant. Furthermore, this darkness is a false pretense and a distortion of the true conception of the world in which GOD breathed the breath of life and animated our being as His beloved creation. Any implication that substitutes the supernatural primacy of the primordial divinity of GOD who sits justly in the Seven Skies is blasphemous. We the Pontificate henceforth declare this excerpt, heresy.

 

---

 

 

“In the beginning, there was only darkness; an endless emptiness where time did not exist, and the abyss was infinite and unshined. This place was known as the Void, where chaos controlled all things: where everything and nothing took place at the same time.

As said in the accounts of the wizard Availer, there was a great flash of light in the Void, and from a shining breach in its abyss came the nameless Creator.”

 

II. All action upon which GOD brought forth the conception of the mortal plane, its dimensions and its nature as prescribed by the cult of Xion shall be duly condemned and branded as erroneous. This cult propagates that the LORD our GOD, supreme Being and Creator of all things does not precede but is preceded by such a darkness aforementioned and professes that chaos controlled space time rather than recognizing the omnipresence of the One, True GOD. We the Pontificate henceforth declare this excerpt, heresy.

 

 

---

 

“Thus the Creator recognized this weakness, and fearing that the mortal realms would succumb to chaos and undoing, he granted to these realms the banks of life: massive collections of a pure quintessence of dark, known as lifeforce, of which brought order and balance to each mortal world by the laws of the Cycle of the Banks.”

 

III.  We so duly declare this excerpt wrought with heresies that propagate a false rendition of the omnipotence of GOD. The cult of Xion concedes that the LORD of Lords committed an error in the creation of the mortal plane. Furthermore, they profess that GOD granted a “Cycle of the Banks,” a figment of their unsound theology. We hereby reiterate the following as the true tenets of such a  lifeforce that give life and force to the mortal plane:

 

“The Holy Light is the light and wellhead of the creator that interacts with the mortal realm. It suffuses all things and is the most essential and timeless aspect of the Creator; also termed the Godhead, it reflects the infinite will of the Creator and his influence over the mortal world. It exists in all creation, though its strength is empowered by one's spiritual proximity to the Allfather. It embodies the concept of unconditional reality, which transcends the limited existence of mortality or even personality; it is a singular, driving force of purity and radiance which acts as the spiritual body of the Creator. The Holy Light is also the progenitor of pre-ordainment, acting as the primary mover behind all things that occur.”

Et Principia Ecclesiae Dogma (VI)

 

The Holy Canonist Church teaches that the spirit of GOD, imparted by the Breath of life is the progenitor of all being and all lifeforce. Driven by His unconditional benevolence and mercy, we enjoy these graces at baptism and live out the call to holiness. We the Pontificate henceforth declare this excerpt, heresy.

 

---

 

 

“When the Creator shaped the quintessence of dark, he was uncertain of it’s power; fearing what it would do to his mortal children, the Four Brothers, should he cast it upon both them and all the desolate, lifeless world.”

 

IV. The cult of Xion propagates a notion of heresy in the cited text, sponsoring a belief that the Lord our GOD was and is not omniscient, suggesting that He fears His own imperfection when He Himself is without flaw. We the Pontificate henceforth declare this excerpt, heresy.

“Horen was of a sturdy heart and of the greatest compassion, but was neither tall nor short, nor strong nor weak. Malin was lithe, taller than his other brothers, and with a mind brimming with intellect and kindness. Urguan was stocky and honed, chiseled like a statue, but with kind eyes and an honorable soul. Finally, Krug was like a tower, brutish and huge, but of all Four Brothers he bore the greatest wisdom.”

 

V. Blasphemous beyond all recognition, we the Holy Church and pursuant to our Apostolic Authority do hereby declare a grave error in the propagation of the Four Brothers as prescribed by Xionism. The cult of Xionism concedes that Krug, of his siblings, was one who bore the greatest wisdom and inherently the favor of GOD. We recall from the divinely inspired scripture that is was Krug the kinslayer, guided by evil and susceptible to the folly of sin, had slain Exalted Horen. The Church shall not tolerate such false claim and a blatant affront to our most revered Exalted Horen, patron of our humanity and father of the covenant of our salvation. It was Horen, not Krug, nor Malin, nor Urguan that GOD favored for his virtue and wisdom. We the Pontificate henceforth declare this excerpt, heresy.

“It is said, in the first year before history, that the Four Brothers bore flesh of cold stone and blood of brackish water, for their God forged them of the darkest of four souls, the greatest of four Lordsakes, but without the warm aura of life. So the Creator brought forth the quintessence of lifeforce to the mortal worlds and blessed the Four Brothers before their stoney existence was passed on to their unborn sons.”

 

VI. The scriptures of heresy scribed and proliferated by the cult of evil represents a false premise to the consolation of the spirit. These cultists of unsound theology profess that the Lord our GOD, Creator of all, conceives His children with blemishes and darkness and without the life of His essence. The light of the Godhead, We so declare that the conception of the Four Brothers as foretold by these heretics is false and is unrepresentative of the perfect image of GOD and His power. We the Pontificate henceforth declare this excerpt, heresy.

“This is the core of Xionism; vengeance. We few seek vengeance for what hath been stolen. The world was not meant to endure such sorrow, as to witness the end of the First Creation.“

 

VII. The heretical cult incites calamity and recklessness as a means of achieving their rendition of virtue. Thus, we believe that this is erroneous and inordinate to the virtue of fidelity, faith, charity, and patience as revealed by GOD to Exalted Horen in the Scrolls of Virtue. It is heretical for one to propagate such violence when in truth, the benevolence of GOD, His providence in imparting divine justice, and the mercy that is invoked in His very Name shall remain the true nature of faith and obedience for all that is holy. We the Pontificate henceforth declare this excerpt, heresy.

“The way of Xionism is rooted in the older ideology of the way of Dissent, or the Dissentuous Way; a sect of beliefs based on the separation of mortal and immortal worlds. Upon the creation of accursed Xion, the faith of man took new shape, Xionism. Hatred and the desire for vengeance has forged anew the Dissentuous Way, with anger toward the Seven Skies, among all other meddling deities, keeping the ideology anchored and alive. To be one with Xionism is to be one with the mortal worlds - to reject all otherworldly influence and seek the prosperity of remnant Man, and to seek a reshaping of the race of Man at the peak of this success.”

 

VIII. The heretical cult suggests that followers of their presuppositions concerning the nature of faith are mandated to sow dissent in order to unite all things in GOD. Such is illogical and inordinate to the principles of the holy Church and the very understanding of GOD, most powerful. The Church teaches that the Mercy of the Creator is the vessel to which the restoration of human dignity is achieved; the ceasing of sin and the renewal of one’s baptismal vows through repentance and worship by virtue of the Principles of Ministry are the means of which the faithful shall achieve their salvation. It is blasphemous, in anyway form or manner, as suggested by the Xionist cult to sow dissent as it is contrary to that of the virtues of GOD as revealed by Himself to Exalted Horen on the nature of fidelity to the divine Will. It is not the vanity and toil of our mortal existence that we sway the will of the divine by our temporal merit but only through sheer faith and prayer are we united with the Seven Skies and the throne of the LORD. They call for anthropocentric reform and focus less on the sovereignty of the divine Way. It is GOD, who has preordain our plight and our path that we remain docile and attentive to His calling. The Xionist people teach that we are to reject all realms but the mortal world and be one with the flesh. This implication is an affront to the universal call of apostolic works, the labors to which we devote ourselves and long for heavenly grace in the realm of the celestial divine. We the Pontificate henceforth declare this excerpt, heresy.

There resides in the theology of Xionism, an intrinsic disorder that deviates from the objective truth. The Holy Canonist Church shall not tolerate such false pretenses and by virtue of her authority through Apostolic succession and the Principles of Faith, we so vow and solemnly proclaim our unwavering protection of the Scrolls of the Canon and that of the faithful flock to whom she is entrusted salvation under the yoke of her sacraments.

 

To those who mock and profane the Holy Name of GOD, and His Scrolls, which the Holy Church received as Blessed Revelations of GOD’s work and those pleasing to Him, to inspire the beholder with piety, and to arouse them to follow the Laws of GOD; to those that say that these are false: ANATHEMA!

 

With grace and blessings from Almighty GOD, His Most Exalted Prophets, His communion of saints and Aenguls, we pray. Amen.

Alifer Amice scoffs at both sides of this debate, he scoffs Xionism for their views on the old dark while scoffing the church of the canon for their arrogance and failure to realize that their beloved GOD has long since perished. He goes about, continuing to spread true dissent among the hearts of the people and revels in the atrocities they unknowingly commit under his name. "Canonism is a lie, Xionism is a lie.. GOD is as dead as the old dark. Power is all that matters now, all that will ever matter and I will achieve such power even if it means the complete destruction of your pathetic faiths. Prepare fools, the unraveling of your faiths has begun."

"Another wise decision by the High Pontiff." Illyr'maylu the canonist High Elf would comment on the declaration.
