ANSWERS
The term theopaschites, meaning “those who hold that God suffered,” was applied to people in the 5th and 6th centuries who believed that by virtue of their unity, God suffered along with the incarnate Christ.
Since early church times, clerics were bound for life to the dioceses in which they were ordained. A transfer to another diocese was permitted only for just cause. Incardination of a Roman Catholic cleric who moves into another diocese occurs after five years if all parties agree.
