First came to Trouble is Nature of Christ in Nichaea and Constantinople: In Catholic Creed:
If Heretics insists they are Catholic, they are lier for they don't believe at least one of these simple three conditions. Even Greek Orthodox and Roman Catholic have fought for some difference in understanding of three teachings.
Of course, Malkion (and Arkat, Hrestol, Zzabur, Waertag, Carmanos, etc...) have not same personality to Only One and His Worshippers, but some simplified form of Creed may make many conflicts in History of Monotheists in Glorantha.
And under Judaeo-Levant Culture, we cannot ignore Old Israelite Teaching,
4) God of Old Testament and New Testament is Same, he is Almighty. (Some
Sects of Gnosticism and Persian Influenced Heresy, No, Very Bad Guy of
Underworld exists.)
5) We don't believe Reincarnation of Spirit before "Testament".
6) Spirit and Flesh can be distinguished. (We Ancient Easterners, No)
I don't know detailed Life of Malkion of Hrestol without very equivocal
form,
(if it exists,) They knew some treachery of their disciples (Malkion to
Vadel, Zzabur. Hrestol to Seshna-Likita and Zzabur(ite).) And died for some
reason (for proof of One God Miracle.) I guess some differences of Sects'
understanding of their Prophet Life made themselves without any new
appearances of Prophets.)
And Islam sternly stands before Christian Tradition, these are antagonized creed to Christian Religion.
Most of RW Monotheism is Inland Nomadic Nature, but Gloranthan Malkionism is Coastal Religion of Oceans, I see main differences (and difficulty of Understanding) are caused from this difference.
