"After the way which they call heresy, so worship I (Paul) the God of my fathers."- Acts 24:14

Heresy is any opinion opposed to official or established and accepted views or doctrines. For those who had been brought up in the traditional Jewish manner, to convert to Christianity meant becoming a heretic - opposed to established religious views. Paul was not ashamed of this. It is no different now; when one differs with established religious groups he may be called a heretic. Romans 1:16
