The dogmatic relation of the Orthodox Church to Origen's doctrine of Apocatastasis
* First, Origin's doctrine of apocatastasis has been condemned in three local councils in the fifth century: an Alexandrian council, under the presidency of Patriarch Pheofilos, a Cyprian council, under presidency of St. Epifanios of Cyprus, and a Roman council, under the presidency of Pope Anastasius I.
* The decision of the Council (also Synod) of Constantinople in 453, confirmed by the [[Fifth Ecumenical Council]]'s anathemas in 553: ''"If anyone shall say that all reasonable beings will one day be united in one,...moreover, that in this pretended '''apocatastasis''', spirits only will continue to exist, as it was in asserts the reigned fabulous pre-existenceof souls, and shall assert the monstrous restoration which follows from it:   let him be anathema.''(First anathema){{ref|1}}
