Heresy in Spiritual Theology designates a defined doctrinal reality within the Catholic faith that arises from divine revelation and is authoritatively interpreted by the Church’s Magisterium. In catechetical instruction, heresy in spiritual theology serves not merely as an abstract principle but as a lived reality shaping sacramental life, moral formation, and prayer. It is grounded in Sacred Scripture and transmitted through Sacred Tradition, forming part of the coherent unity of Christian teaching. Ultimately, it contributes to the sanctification of the faithful and the building up of the Mystical Body of Christ. It safeguards revealed truth while inviting deeper intellectual assent and personal conversion.
