	euchites (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The Euchites were a sect that separated from the Christian Eastern (Orthodox) Church in Mesopotamia, and then extended by Asia Minor and Thrace.
		The doctrine of the Euchites was very similar to that of the Bogomils and Luciferians.
		They did not recognise the sacraments of the Christian church, considered Lucifer as the elder son of God, and, based on the idea that the direct descendants of Adam and Eve had to practise it to procreate, admitted incest among their members.

		It is difficult to ascertain whether the name was taken from the reputed founder of that sect, a certain pope Bogumil or Bogomil, or whether he assumed that name after it had been given to the whole sect.
		The word is a direct translation into Slavonic of Massaliani, the Syriac name of the sect corresponding to the Greek Euchites.
		The Bogomils are identified with the Massaliani in Slavonic documents of the 13th century.

	HISTORY OF THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH Book 4 Chapter 12
		The Euchites were mystic monks with dualistic principles derived from Parsism.
		They were probably the successors of the older Syrian Euchites or Messalians of the fourth and fifth centuries, who in their conceit had reached the height of ascetic perfection, despised manual labor and all common occupations, and lived on alms-the first specimens of mendicant friars.
		From the Euchites sprang towards the close of the eleventh century the Bogomiles (the Slavonic name for Euchites), 760 and Catharists (i.e.

	Michael Psellos (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Psellos was a professor of philosophy, basing his teaching on the Platonic school.
		He wrote some works against the Bogomils and Euchites, some works on demonology, and prepared a classification of demons.
		This Michael Psellos must not be confused with Michael Psellus the elder.

	QUIETISM (This Rock: February 1994)
		The name "Quietism" is derived from the Latin quietus, which means passivity, and it is accurate in describing the state of mind and soul which Quietists sought in order to achieve spiritual perfection.
		Similar heresies and errors can be traced back as far as the fourth century, when a group known as the Euchites, or Messalians, taught that external acts of sanctification, such as the sacraments, were useless, for prayer alone would free the body from attachment to evil.
		The medieval Hesychasts believed that a perfect contemplation of God was possible through repose of the body and stilling of the will.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Prayer
		This is true of vocal prayer, and as regards mental prayer, or meditation, this, too, is necessary so far as we may need to apply our mind to the study of Divine things in order to acquire a knowledge of the truths necessary for salvation.
		The obligation to pray is incumbent on us at all times, not that prayer should be our sole occupation, as the Euchites, or Messalians, and similar heretical sects professed to believe.
		The texts of Scripture bidding us to pray without ceasing mean that we must pray whenever it is necessary, as it so frequently is necessary; that we must continue to pray until we shall have obtained what we need.

		Excerpt from the Council of Chalcedon accepting the Letter of Cyril to John of Antioch about peace.
		The most pious and religious bishops Valerian and Amphilochius came together to us and made a joint enquiry about the so called Messalians or Euchites or Enthusiasts, or whatever name this appalling heresy goes under, who dwell in the region of Pamphylia.
		We made investigation and the god-fearing and reverent Valerian produced a synodical document concerning these people, which had been drawn up in great Constantinople in the time of Sisinnius of blessed memory.

		This was the question Abba Lucius asked the Euchites who came to see him; "What work do you do?" It's a fair enough question for any Christian, and indeed a very important question for preachers and ministers - "What do you do?" This section is an attempt to answer that question.
