Heritics are those people mentioned in the bible as spreading a false gospel or heretical belief.  Judas, Ananias and Sapphira were just disobedient.

Jezebel, Caiaphas and Diotrephes are possible candidates for being heretics.

Not sure about capiaphas but I dont think being a high priest is equivalent to being a heritic.  Diotrophes would probably be a heritic but I'd have to look into it.  Also, he should be a Greek with a name like that.  I think we should look into that.

Looking at 3 John 1:9 I cant say that he could be a heritic.  I still think he should be labled a greek though.

Caiaphas led Israel astray on his heretical teachings, twisted the torah, and he killed Jesus.

Eh, Im not buying that.  besides, for game purposes Heresy is false Christian teaching.  YOu cant engage in Heresy unless you claim to be a christian and teach a false doctrine.

Yes but for the game, it is.  and I am still not buying the fact that Caiaphas would be a heritic because I am not a jew so I dont know if he was spreading false doctrines or not.  He may have been the most orthodox jew there was but since I am not a jew I dont know.  Either way, we view Jesus and his teaching from a completed perspective and can differentiate from those who saw themselves as "in" christianity and those who were "out" of christianity.

The question here would be whether Redemption recognizes the difference between Judaism and Christianity as early as 40 AD. If so, the evil High Priests would not be Heretics. If not, they should be.

I don't really consider Amen the proper response to someone saying that they killed God...
