Maternalization of God
- In the holy trinity, God is described as a combination of the Mother, the Son and the Holy Spirit. - Most likely developed from matriarchal culture of certain Teutonic tribes prior to their conversion to Christianity - The Son is begotten from his mothers. Both his physical mother (Virgin Mary) and his holy mother.

St. Mary Magdalene
The reverence of and her importance to the history of the First Apostolic Church is somewhat unique to Western Artemian Christianity. Although the status of Magdalene was somewhat common among early northern Teutonic Christian tribes prior to the invasion of Goidelia, the doctrine is now most notable within the First Apostolic Church. The church derives its namesake from Magdalene, dubbing her the First Apostle Saint Magdalene. The Gospel of Nathanael is the fifth book of the Apostolic New Testament and chronicles the life of Mary Magdalene after the resurrection of Jesus, including her pivotal role in the foundation of the Christian church and its migration northward past the Eurybian Sea. The gospel replaces the Acts of Apostles, which also writes about early Christianity and its spread north, but lacks mention of Mary Magdalene's journey from the southern edge of the Eurbyian Sea west and northward. The Apostolic church believes that the gospel was written by Nathanael - an early disciple and follower of Mary Magdelene. The validity of the book has been called into question by most theological scholars outside of Tiperyn, however, with many believing it to have been fabricated some time after the invasion of Goidelia by Teutonic tribes in the 11th century.

In the Gospel of Nathanael, Mary Magdalene played an important role in the establishment of the early Christian Church. She is professed to have lead the first disciples of Jesus out of the Old City to spread the message of Christ. The tribe, having crossed at the mouth of the Iapetus between modern day Agrana y Griegro and Jungastia, settled in western Artemia. According to the First Apostolic Church, the Teutonic tribes that migrated to Goidelia were descendants of Mary Magdalene's tribe. Thus, the First Apostolic Church considers itself to be the direct successor of the Ministry of Jesus. Further, the Highal royal family - the ruling family of Tiperyn - believes itself to be descendant matrilineally from Mary Magdalene herself. Although several anthropologists have cited the matriarchal power structures of the Teutonic tribes that modern Tiperyn peoples descended from - even prior to their conversion to Christianity sometime prior to the 4th century - as reason for its largely matrilineal system of nobility, the belief of Mary Magdalene as the prime ancestor of the house is its official justification for the holy realm's system of. Additionally, it is from its claimed relation to Magdalene that the ruling family of Tiperyn derives its over the lands of Goidelia, as the church believes that Tiperyn was the ultimate settlement of the descendants of the apostles.

Saint Magdalene is revered during a day of worship on 22 July. This day is a national holiday in Tiperyn and is seen as one of the holiest days of the year after Easter, Good Friday, and Christmas.
