The '''Magisterium of Paxism''' also known simply as the '''Magisterium''' is a religious organisation which was founded in 980 CE by High King [[Melkezedek the Great]] to prevent the proliferation of heretical writings and practices within [[Paxism]]. It traces its legal identity and mandate to the Bingolian Additions to the Vagumar (see [[Writings of Paxism]] for more information) made by High King Melkezedek and approved by a conference of religious scholars who met in Bingol in 980 CE known as the Council of Bingol. The Magisterium is a distinct structure from the [[Priesthood in Paxism]], but in Packilvania and in countries where Melkezedekists established roots, the priesthood is subsumed under the Magisterium.
