S'ubhal of Syre

b 913, d 971. S'ubhal of Syre was an important religious leader in the early Incarnandist movement. He is considered heretical by mainstream Incarnandism. He was born of Shenimite heritage on the island of Narshad and lived most of his life in the city of Syre. Like other Incarnandists, he fully accepted the future mission of the coming Incarnandus. He rejected the need for the line of the Incarnandina and taught that God the Universe would not necessarily and indeed would probably not become manifest through the line of the Incarnandinas. He taught widely in Syre and had occasion for many heated public arguments with other Incarnandists. It is not certain that he was the first Incarnandist openly to reject the mission of the Incarnandinas, but in the centuries following his life, he was seen as the impetus for the heretical belief.

S'ubhalites

Main article: S'ubhalites

Those who adopted this belief are commonly called "S'ubhalites". They do not form a single body but form very small communities throughout the world. There are some Incarnandists who participate with the general community of the local Incarnandists who theologically reject that God the Universe will be born through the line of the Incarnandina, but accept her as the spiritual and traditional head of the general community. There are others who completely reject the leadership role of the Incarnandina and the Holy Family.
