Docetism

In Christianity, docetism is the doctrine that the phenomenon of Christ, his historical and bodily existence, and above all the human form of Jesus, was mere semblance without any true reality.
Broadly it is taken as the belief that Jesus only seemed to be human, and that his human form was an illusion. It appears to have arisen over theological contentions concerning the meaning, figurative or literal, of a sentence from the Gospel of John: "the Word was made Flesh". Docetism was unequivocally rejected at the First Council of Nicaea in 325 AD and is regarded as heretical by the Catholic Church, Orthodox Church, Coptic Church and other Christian denominations.
