Abjuration

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The term abjuration (also: abjuratio ; from Latin, " abjuration ") designates in the Roman Catholic tradition a ritual-formal part of the admission or re-admission into the church.

In the Christian understanding, this recording can be carried out in the context of baptism as " abrenuntiatio [diaboli] " (Latin, "rejection of the devil ") or for the resumption of a believer as detachment from heretical ideas.

In the case of heresy , schism and apostasy, however , the renunciation of the discarded beliefs, introduced in 1859, is no longer foreseen in the reconciliation since 1960; it was now sufficient to make the creed .

A well-known abjuration in Bosnia is the renunciation of the bilino field at the time of Ban Kulin .
