Heresy is lack of faith and betrayal of his church, and promoting such successfully.
The Heretic hunter loves his church more than God, GOD loves the bold reformer
and many confuse valiant reformation with anarchy and end a great religious
transformation, enforcing the rule of the dullard.

Answer

Within the Christian religion, heresies are any belief that branches from the mainstream religion that has either no real foundation at all, or is contrary to scripture, or is contrary to Christ's teachings or is contrary to God's revelation in another way, eg through prophesy.

Often whether or not the heresy is described as such depends upon the group promoting it.

For example, Christians who take the teachings of Jesus and scripture seriously realise that the denial of a Trinitarian God by Jehovah's Witnesses is a heresy, as it flies in the face of everything that we know about God as revealed in scripture, through Jesus, and through prophecy. However, to the Jehovah's Witness, who has been steeped in the teachings of their founder Charles Taize Russell, the Trinity itself is heretical, because it is contrary to the teachings of their religion, despite Christians all over the world disagreeing with them, and despite the evidence in scripture of a Trinitarian God.

Another, lesser, heresy, could be the over adulation of Mary by the Roman Catholic Church. An example of this is the Assumption of Mary (the full bodily ascension of Mary into heaven) that has absolutely no basis in scripture, prophesy or Christ's teachings, and is contra to all Christian doctrine. This overadulation is regarded by almost all of the Christian Church as heretical, but for the Catholic, it is deemed a vital part of their belief.
