Very interesting info about the NestoriansThank you!
Im amazed that they reject the Theotokos. It is fundamental in greek religion at least. They were rebels of their own it seems
And they use Greek terms Ive never heard before about Virgin Mary.
(mother of man, mother of Christ) they just dont accept the duality.
Very interesting. Thanks again.

Didn't someone post a thread about Nestorians in ancient China not that long ago? I thought it was in the history forum.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.

hmm no wrong.
they dont accept the essence of god being born throug Virgin Mary.
But Jesus was a threefold of Divinity (him God and Holy Spirit).
Dont they recognize the divine essence in Jesus?
or just cant accept that essence of God was born through Virgin Mary? and only accept Jesus born or man born?
That means they dont recognize the three as one it seems.
Interesting.

No no no.
They believe that (a simplified version) Mary was mother of the human Jesus only. that's why monophysites attacked them, claiming they are tearing Jesus into two.

When it comes to the link between ancient Assyrians and modern days ones, it is about that; Assyrian empire conquered lots of Aramaic duchies, but Assyrian people weren't very numerable. So Arameans were brought to cultivate the land... Eventually, all Assyrian empire got aramaised. And that way, there is a definite link between them, because they still use the language adapted by Assyrians."I realise I hold the key to freedom,
