Abstract

Novatianism was a early Christian
movement which was formed around Novatian (d. 258) and considered heretical and
schismatic by the Catholic Church. Therefore, the Novatianists became the
target of the Church's criticism. Basically they were critisized because of
their view about readmission of lapsi (apostates) into the Christianity and
establisment of different kind of church. However, objectivity of church’s
criticism about Novatian and Novatianism, can be questioned. In this paper, Novatian
and Novatianism were briefly introduced and Church’s objectivity about them was
discussed. As a conclusion, it was figured out that both Novatianists and some
teologians which represent Catholic Church had some inconsistencies.

ÜÇÜNCÜ YÜZYIL HIRİSTİYANLIĞINDA DİNDEN DÖNME HADİSELERİ VE NOVATİANİZM

Abstract

Novatianizm, Novatian’ın (ö:258) görüşleri etrafında oluşan erken dönem Hıristiyan akımıdır ve kilise tarafından heretik ve ayrılıkçı kabul edilmektedir. Bundan dolayı da Novatianistler kilisenin eleştirilerinin hedefi haline gelmişlerdir. Onlar temel olarak, lapsilerin (mürtetler) dine geri dönmeleri konusunda takındıkları sert tavır ve ayrı bir kilise yapısı tesis etmeleri sebebiyle eleştirilmişlerdir. Ancak Novatian ve Novatianizm eleştirisinde kilisenin ne kadar objektif olduğu sorgulanabilir. Bu çalışmada da, kısaca Novatian ve Novatianizm tanıtılmış ve kilisenin bu konudaki duruşu nesnel bir tavırla sorgulanmaya çalışılmıştır. Sonuçta, karşılıklı olarak hem Novatianistlerin hem de merkezi kiliseyi temsil eden bazı teologların birtakım uygulamalarında tutarsızlıkların olduğu görülmüştür.
