The article offers a general overview of the Montanist ideas that Tertullian expresses in his works, after joining the sect of the Cataphrygians. A number of works of a moral-practical and theological-polemical nature are considered, such as: «On the Warrior’s Crown», «On Flight in Persecution», «On Modesty», «On Monogamy», «On Fasting», «On the Soul», «Against Praxeas» and others. Sectarian influence in these writings was expressed in Tertullian’s support of «spontaneous martyrdom», rigorism in the discipline of repentance, severity in relation to marriage and fasting, citing of «new prophecies» as authoritative statements, disdain for members of the Church, whom he called «psychici», who were inferior to the Phrygian «spiritales», conviction that the schismatics are guided by the Holy Spirit as an Hypostasis, that revealed the fullness of Revelation throgh Montanus in the present final age or era of the Paraclete.
