Christomonism
{{Short description|Viewpoint within Christianity}}
Christomonism is a Christocentric viewpoint within Christianity that accepts only one divine person, Jesus Christ, rather than the Holy Trinity.
As a form of nontrinitarianism, belief in Christomonism is not part of mainstream Christianity, which follows the rulings of the ecumenical councils, including the First Council of Nicaea and First Council of Constantinople, which established Trinitarianism as part of mainstream Christian belief.
Criticism
{{main|Christofascism#Christomonism}}
Douglas John Hall has related Christomonism to Dorothee Sölle's concept of Christofascism. He states that the over-divinized ("high") Christology of Christendom is demonstrated to be wrong by its "almost unrelieved anti-Judaism".{{cite conference|title= Confessing Christ in a Post-Christendom Context|author= Hall, Douglas John|url= http://religion-online.org./showarticle.asp?title=528|book-title= 1999 Covenant Conference, Network of Presbyterians|date= November 6, 1999|place= Atlanta, Georgia|publisher= Religion Online|quote=...shall we say this, represent this, live this, without seeming to endorse the kind of christomonism (Dorothee Sölle called it 'Christofascism'!...|access-date= December 21, 2007|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20070823092345/http://www.religion-online.org/showarticle.asp?title=528|archive-date= August 23, 2007|url-status= dead}}{{cite book| title= Early Christian Literature: Christ and Culture in the Second and Third Centuries |author=Rhee, Helen|chapter=Superiority of Christian Monotheism | pages= 80| year=2005| publisher= Routledge| isbn= 0-415-35487-0}}{{cite web| title=The Identity of Jesus in a Pluralistic World| author=Hall, Douglas John| url=http://www.genevalutheran.ch/spaghetti/articles/THE%20IDENTITY%20OF%20JESUS%20IN%20A%20PLURALISTIC%20WORLD.doc| format=Microsoft Word| access-date=2007-12-21| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080228002022/http://www.genevalutheran.ch/spaghetti/articles/THE%20IDENTITY%20OF%20JESUS%20IN%20A%20PLURALISTIC%20WORLD.doc| archive-date=2008-02-28| url-status=dead}}
