The term "It doesn't make an iota's worth of difference" comes from the Arian/Trinitarian controversy. Trinitarians believe that God the Son was of the same nature as the God the Father. Arians believed that God the Son was of "like nature" with God the Father. The Greek word for "same nature" is "homousious" and the word for "like nature" was "homoiusious." The only difference was the letter "i" - in Greek, "iota." Many in society didn't see the difference.
And the pharoahs were called "son of God" and considered themselves God, Son of God, and with the spirit of God. You're so confused. Jesus was Pharoah and wanted to free Hebrews from slavery. The Hebrews just. Didn't. Get. It.
The monumental work “History of the Byzantine Empire: Vol. 1: Constantine to the Crusades” and “History of the Byzantine Empire: Vol. 2: From the Crusades to the Fall of the Empire”, of Alexander Alexandrovich Vasiliev (an expert Byzantinist), is considered one of the best accounts on the Greek legacy of Byzantine history and culture. Truly, masterpieces.
Don’t you find it ironic to say that “the council did not decide on codification of the Bible” and 2 minutes later proceed to say that “the council labeled the alternative as heresy, ordered ever other version burned and owners to be put to death”. Is that not a contradiction?

_For a Father to witness the denial, torture and death of His own son is The Greatest of Sacrifice he can make. Ask any Father here on Earth. For a Son to Rise up in Freedom & Love and Choose to make a sacrifice this great is a Father's greatest honor & a son's greatest glory._ _____________________________ Constantine was No Christian. Constantine and his clever politicking while passing "laws" against the primary teachings of Christ just as Paul and Christ emphatically warned the new Christian church did so to stop the fighting & persecution. He worshiped Pluto and Saturn yet was the "Christian (???)" emperor who passed new Views & teachings thus adopted "law". _"Worship our way or be brutally persecuted and tortured; even burned alive!"_ A year after The First Council of Nicaea Constantine had his wife and son murdered. Nice guy. It was Constantine who passed a law voted by various bishops; many involved in mystic views - that Christ and Elohim & the Spirit were one single sentient being. Ironic that this view has a very deep pagan Greek polytheistic origin. Prior to the The First Council of Nicaea, The "Aryan" view was the accepted view for hundreds of years. Oh and btw when Constantine decided to become baptized _(on his death bed because that way he believed he would not be held accountable for his many past sins);_ The Bishop who baptized him was Aryan. The original Christian founders were Jews and they repeatedly admonished future generations of the "last days" to "get out of Babylon (the great)" because we are *in* Babylon the great aka False teachings or the doctrines of men. Then move on to Easter and Sunday and Saturday, Hell Fire etc - just some of many pagan doctrines that Paul warned would creep into the Church. And tell me why was John's first vision regarding the degradation of the Church and it's teachings? Why would God judge the Church so harshly if innocent? Why are there page after page of denunciations regarding the state of the Church and teachings found w/i the words spoken by Elohim Himself then recorded by the likes of Isiah or Ezekiel or Daniel and again for this very hour or generation? There are 3 full pages side by side in Ezekiel alone of how poorly the average pastor and self proclaimed prophet would behave in this very hour and all the false teachings therein. The Trinity is the oldest pagan doctrine around, as old as Nimrod. And All the prophets in unison say that 90% of the pastors today will be teaching false doctrine. John echos this in his vision on the Isl of patmos. The church is corrupt. "The Reformation" did reform but failed to restore the simple purity of the redemptive message via the Christ through the prophets. Read the first 3 denunciations of the church. At the end of all three - _Elohim speaks in threes for emphasis_ - it states (in a nutshell) that the one who clearly sees the sins of the Church will be written in the book of life. Jesus first created and Beloved son of Elohim; our true Risen King currently Sits at the Right hand of Himself? Yeshua is the first created being "first son" within our reality as we understand it. Elohim then created all the angels. Yeshua/Jesus is the very seed of Creation Himself. (Read the first few chapters of Hebrews - use a good translation - then read the Septuagint - that is if you are brave enough to take the red pill.). He is the only angelic being able to create. All things (w/i our reality) are created by Him, through Him and for Him. He holds all the Adamic and Angelic DNA. There exist 12 distinct types; Jesus being the Archetype. This is exactly how Jesus was able to be born of the tribe of Judah when Mary was not. Yeshua used the living spirit and power of Elohim to create with Elohim's approval and authority. Jesus was full man/human when He walked the Earth thus in his success proved Satan's claims as false. He facilitated His father's life sustaining spirit to aid Him - to Heal others etc. He is the first fruit of many (to come). Peter, John, Paul were able to access Elohim's spirit as well with the same power later but not until after Jesus finished His commission. To quote Tozer in a nutshell "The Trinity; the greatest Mystery never contested"
Independent board game publisher Hollandspiele just put out a new game called Nicaea about this very topic! It does a great job modeling the political opportunism at the heart if the First Nicene Council's theological debates. Worth noting that the production value may not be what you'd expect from a game at its price point, but it's worth it for the gameplay and to support a great independent publisher.
Thank You for this. I have often heard the idea that the Council of Nicaea deternmined what Books would become Canon so this is insightful. On the flip side the "music" of this video is horrible, too loud, and distracting (my opinion). Still, I Appreciate you Clarifying this topic
Was the councils of hippo and Carthage in North Africa that ratified the New Testament books. However, this wasn't an ecumenical council but rather a local one. The standard canon was handed down through the tradition of the church, which was unwritten practice. Some churches had slight variants in their canons.
This was surprisingly well researched and nuanced I’m a biblical scholar and I was waiting for something much much worse than this but it is generally quite well seen and delivered
That's because he sugar coated all the killings and what really happened to so many people for not believing what they decided was scriptures out of the 24 thousand,, no two are identical by the way, you would know as some one study them
@@anthonycarmine9953 You should really do some of your own research into this, you’d see that it had nothing to do with the canonization of scripture (which books should be included or excluded). The council was called to address the Arianism heresy, stop getting your historical knowledge from Dan Brown novels.
When Jesus had been baptized, he immediately rose from the water and a voice was heard from the heavens, which said: "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. " Who is who? God speaks from heaven to God standing on the ground? Mikael Lyngvig.
How is it possible that so many people doesn't even put questions about the quality of the Bible ?? Do you guys know from what books was the Bible written? It was written from copies of another copies and again from another copies...... Do you really believe the authenticity of those copies ?? Are we sure that nothing's been changed?? It is written in about 800-900 years, so many different authors, so many contradictions in the Bible .... Don't you guys see all this ?? For me personally I think that the most of people think that someone will forgive them at some point , but the truth is that unfortunately other .... At least try to read other gospel about Jesus and his teachings, not just the Bible . Maybe you will get also what Jesus teachings are about.... He's teaching about the mind .... About how to change ur mindset.... Anyway the opinions are all different so.... I wish you all good luck ❤
@@uchennanwogu2142 Jesus and the Bible CONSTANTLY refer to Him as "the Son of God" "who thought it NOT ROBBERY TO BE EQUAL TO GOD" making Him divine. He also CONSTANTLY was talking about His "Father" cementing the idea that they are TWO DIFFERENT BEINGS just as I and MY father are two distinct different beings.
The fact that the church thought that the Son could not be a creation of God due to John Chapter 1v1 is totally unreasonable. The word (or Son) was in the beginning. The beginning of what? God is eternal and had no beginning. The book of Revelation, written by the same apostle John in chapter 3 and verse 14 tells us that the Son (Identified as then faithful and true witness) was the beginning of creation BY God. So, the beginning mentioned in John 1;1 is the beginning of creation. The son is quite obviously the firstborn (brought forth, created) of all creation. The first thing made by the Father. Everything makes sense in the koine Greek when we realize that the Son is created. Divine yes, but created.
Yes, this is and was obvious. The council of Nicaea was likely political theatrics and the result was determined well before its conclusion. Constatine's Church clearly had two main objectives; 1) differentiate Christianity and Judaism and 2) incorporate more Greek philosophy into scripture. The cosubstantiation of Jesus and the Trinity accomplishes both of these goals, in spite of direct scripture. To Constantine and radical Greek bishops, Ariansim was simply too Jewish to be considered uniquely Roman.
@@Chadwick-k7x interesting comment. It does seem that the church of the third/fourth century was doing everything possible to free itself of being a sect of judaism. To the extent of corrupting the very nature of God.
It's nice to be able to deliver using critiquing not insulting or flattery for sure. But nobody has to respect the ideology. It's says things like Israel need only ask and smash us like pottery, crush us with a rod of iron and "inherit" all our lands. Nah man.. it's arrogant as hell to tell people we have to respect talking about genociding us and stealing everything we own. Or when Yahweh says he'll gather EVERY nation to Jerusalem and have their houses sacked and women raped. (12 is marriage age according to him) Absolutely nobody has to "respect" that. I won't be told to respect global gang rape of women and potentially 12 yr Olds.
Shouldn't he be critical of his own church? That star is the one star of Venus , it has nothing to do with Judaism. Anyway, you have the divine spark and you should always trust yourself first.
Council of Nicaea changed the Word of God to fit their own agenda. They formed the Trinity which is adding to the Word. Paul spoke about this and said let anyone who adds or takes away from the words in the Bible be accursed. God is One. Jesus is God in a fleshly body. The reason John chapter 1 is correct concerning Jesus is that He always was but not in human form already. he was in the very plan(Word) of God from the beginning. Then it says the Word becomes flesh. Easy to understand that with some revelation
@@LightForger How can you believe in the trinity?? Revelation 1:1 A revelation by Jesus Christ, which [God] gave him, to show his slaves.. Revelation 1:6 and he made us to be a kingdom, priests to his [God and Father]-yes, to him be the glory and the might forever. Amen. Can't even get through the first chapter of Revelation . Before this false pagan trinity teaching crumbles... Hallelujah-Praise Jah you people.
@@redredmane5544 please tell me what you are talking about? Jah, Yah, YHWH-YAHWEH , Jehovah is the personal name of Almighty God the Father Creator of the Universe The name likely means (He causes to become) Meaning He becomes or can do- anything to accomplish his will.. Are you a Bible reader? You don't know this? Hallelujah-Praise Jah you people.
The video is good and informative, but the background music kills it for me. You’ve got hyped up music that sounds like it’s primed for a sports package video, not a historical mini documentary. Completely takes one out of the video
At 8:40 - Melitius of Lycopolis was not "insubordinate" to the bishop of Alexandria. There was no heirarchy above the local church before Nicaea created the Pentarchy, when the Roman State the Bishop of Alexandira over the bishops of Egypt. Melitius was part of the controversy with Arius, because in the previous generation, Peter unilaterally excommunicated Arius when he was young as a way of attacking Melitius for siding with the Novatian "rebaptizers" after Cyprian and the Romans started forging doctrines around the idea of denying Christ under persecution and then asking for forgiveness when the persecution ended. Novatus said the Church did not have authority to readmit those who denied Christ publicly, but the sect eventually settled on readmittance if the people were rebaptized, because it was literally the 1st generation after child baptism became a thing, and they were essentually saying they weren't really born again. Cyprian and the bishop of Rome contested this as a heresy more to preserve Cyrpians own office, becaue he fled from Carthage when the persecution started, and then tried to make up rules of readmittance, claiming that the Roman Catholic "mother church" baptism was always efficacious. He even added the term "again" to John 3:5 to claim that one is "born again of water and the spirit," to make the case, which Jerome added to the Latin Vulgate, all to prop up the false doctrine of baptismal regeneration. Melitius and many others sided with Novatus, who was elected by the elders of Rome to be the next bishop, while his rival who sided with Cyprian was elected by popular vote, many of whom had relatives that denied Christ that they wanted readmitted into the Church, while Novatus was saying this was not permitted. The bishop of Alexandira, (Dionysus I believe) also fled when persecution started, so he naturally sided with Cyprian, leading to his successor Peter condeming Melitius for taking the opposite stance. This claim was based on the idea of the regional Synod at Carthage being authoritative over the churches of Egypt, rather than the bishop of Alexandria, who attended the conference. But the Alexandrian bishops were always pushing for more power, which led to them eventually beating the bishop of Constantinople to death when someone from a rival sect was elected. This led to the Council of Carthage, which was largely about putting Alexandria in its palce. The early church was a train wreck folks. There was nothing authoritative in the ecumenical councils. Stand under the Word of God. Nothing more.
The first council picking what books are in the Bible was the 382 Council of Rome. Then the 393 Synod of Hippo, 397 Council of Carthage, 1445 Encyclical Council of Florence and then the 1563 Council of Trent. Each one had the same books in them and included the Deuterocanonical books.
So far as I know, only Orthodoxy follows the agreed upon conclusions of the 7 councils. Every other body either ignores (see all protestants) or adds (hello, Rome!) what suits them personally.
@@GopnikVlad The Orthodox do not have the authority to call an Ecumenical Council. They need the pope or an emperor crowned by the pope. That’s why we have more councils, because we have someone with the authority to call one.
Correction on Easter. They didn't change the date of Easter. They changed the celebration of the Resurrection from occurring at Passover to occurring at Easter. Easter was already a Roman holiday to celebrate the goddess of fertility Ishtar, this is why its associated with bunnies. What they changed was that it would be the celebration of the resurrection instead of Ishtar, and instead of celebrating that at Passover
No, this is not true. Debate over the date to celebrate the resurrection first arose in the time of Polycarp and Victor I of Rome. Apparently, the apostle John had taught his disciples in Asia Minor to worship on Nisan 14th according to the Jewish calendar while Paul and Peter had instructed the Roman Christians to celebrate on the rotating date now used so it would always fall on a Sunday. Romans did not worship Ishtar. Ishtar was a Mesopotamian goddess. The closest approximation in Rome would have been Venus. The name "easter" is actual an English problem that had nothing to do with the Romans. Proto-Germanic speakers had a month named after the goddess Ēostre which matched up with the rotating dates of the resurrection celebration, thus the name "Easter" in English.
@@DestinyAwaitsChannel No writing attributed to Peter or Paul teaches this, but it was considered part of apostolic tradition fairly early on. Since Peter and Paul were regarded as the founders of the Roman church, it is reasonable to assume they were the originators, although the claim could be disputed and is likely more nuanced than this. Eusebius’ Church History - Book 5, chapters 23-24, discusses the controversy in detail. I'd provide you a link, but UA-cam likes to delete comments with links.

Good coverage. It is interesting to note that Arianism is very similar to Islam in it's belief of God and Jesus. Christianity and Islam have very similar history and beliefs (including their respect for Jesus) but the biggest difference is that Christians are trinitarians and Muslims are unitarians believing in only 1 indivisible god with Jesus being one of his major prophets.
The council came together to discuss the divinity of Christ, the conclusion being Jesus Christ was divine & second person of a Godhead. Arianism professed Jesus Christ to be a man but the begotten son of God. God is one.
SO .... WHAT YOU'RE SAYING EXTREMELY CLEARLY AND LOUD IS, the notion that "Jesus is a God, is in fact, man-made and the product of a meeting by religious minded MEN and then co-signed by the state .... and it was determined over 300 years after the supposed death and resurrection of "JESUS" ...... Then the "Bible" was revised for over 800 MORE years for a total of OVER 1100 years ..... GOT IT.
There was no Orthodox. The council itself was a search for Orthodoxy. The gospel of John just says that Jesus was with God from the beginning. That does not specifically state that Jesus is eternal, but that Jesus was with God from the beginning. It could be the beginning of the creation of Earth.
Jesus says the Father and I are one. Jesus says that everything the Father has He gives to the Son. Jesus says before abraham was I Am. I Am was yahwehs self-designation. There are plenty of texts showing Jesus' equality with the Father.
According to the Catholic Encyclopedia, the Catholic Church changed the baptismal formula from "in the name of Jesus Christ" to "in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" in the second century. The Catholic Church considers Trinitarian baptisms to be valid, and while other baptismal formulas are acceptable, they must have been performed by a church or person who believes in the Trinity.
It's interesting that all these Videos about this topic never says anything about what The Creator of all thing says. When everyone realizes that The Creator has no problem letting his creation know exactly what he wants. Man only adds confusion and division. This video was great showing how even then man's perception of Christ caused death, division and confusion back then and it hasn't changed to this day.
Notice the 'mitres' the bishops are all wearing? what is their origin? They were exactly the same as the head dresses worn by the priests of Dagon the 'Fish god' ( see 'the pagan origin of the mitre' in google). Harldy fitting for 'Christian' bishops to wear! Just an outward expression of the inward pagan amagamation of beliefs that the council of Nicea introduced to a corrupting church!
The paintings are from centuries after the council. At the council of Nicea miters did not yet exist. We do not see a miter like headdress for bishops before the 11th century, the first small ones probably influenced by the crown of the Byzantine emperor. That is 2000 years after this so called fish God. There is no connection what so ever. This fish god story was invented by a guy in the 19th century with a very bad grasp of history and all he wrote has long been debunked by serious historians.
@@ladydustin7811 Thanks, very informative! Poin taken. However. Please tell me how you feel about men of God wearing elaborate robes e.t.? Can you equate that with all we real about the early Christians. ( I will do more research as to several pagan apendages depicted on church robes. I do know for sure that the 'Chi Rho ( Jesus enitials in Latin) were used by pagan Constantine and adorned to the shields of his warrioirs at the battle of Malvern gate in Rome. It also was displayed on banners that went to areas of the battle to give it more power therre! Christian? I hardly think so!
I LOVE that like totally rad and awesome soundtrack, dude. It’s bitchin’, it’s tubular, bro. I’m shreddin on my fluorescent yellow skateboard doin like awesome 180s. I was like listening thinking like crank it up dude!!
Who knew the other Abrahamic religions believe the only true god is the father. Islam and Judaism believes theres one god and no other persons! You must wonder why Most of Christianity is the only anomaly between the 3 Abrahamic religions? Does that mean the Jews in the old testament were wrong this whole time believing for only one god? Lol
@@paulploy6830 But those tools are one in accord and is not one person its the same as 1 Corinthians 3:6-11 He who plants and he who waters are one, and each will receive his wages according to his labor. For we are God's fellow workers. You are God's field, God's building. These are two people referring to 2 of the apostles are you going to say that they are one in a literal sense? Or are they one because they are doing the same task at hand? If 2 farmers have 2 different jobs but their job is to grow a plant they are one in accord. Not one in person
Religion is not Faith. Religion is organized rules created by men in order to worship and reach the divine. Faith is having belief in something you can't see or touch. As for the second comment I live in Canada and we have more Muslims than Christians. Believing in God and Jesus as the Son of God and the Son of Man isn't superstition. It's plain truth. The only place the Church is going is with Jesus when the rapture of the Church occurs. Don't curse and throw out what you clearly lack understanding in.
@@Zantetsuken94 The first Jewish revolt, mithra & the reason why Constantine changed his surname to flavius gives you a better understanding of the council of Nicea. An as a Muslim I believe Jesus peace be upon is a prophet to the lost sheep of Israel. Not the begotten sun of god that's blasphemy!!!!

@@ralphgreenwood2469 The FACT this "council" was a trumped up illegitimate meeting coming to conclusions of a few to overthrow Arius and anybody who did not have THEIR beliefs! That's the point!
Are you very sure that the trinity was established well in the Christian church before and the Christians were shocked to know that Arian was teaching differently? 🤔🤔 Bcz Nowhere in the bible we could find the word Trinity. It seems that Constantine was the one who introduced Trinity
Yes he did because he himself was a pegan believer he believed in Sol Inctivus .. Apollo and all the pegan God's.. then when he saw the rise of Christianity he saw the chance to unify both beliefs. You can't tell ppl tht a person tht was once a pegan believer who had power to choose wht is to be worshiped had no bias
The word trinity isn’t in the bible you are correct but throughout both old and New Testament there is proper doctrine proving that God Is one being but 3 distinct persons known as God the Father who is fully God but isn’t The Son or the Holy Spirit, God The Son who is Fully God but isn’t God the Father or The Holy Spirit. And the Holy Spirit who is Fully God But also isn’t God the Father or God the Son. Yet they are the Same God but different Persons.
@@nathanyoung2829 yeah verses that are unaccounted for that the church decided to put in the bible and rule out any gospel that didn't fit their criteria. Like the gospel of Philip or Mary Magdalene ..why?
@@nathanyoung2829trinity does not make any logical sense. Which is why people who spout it always reverts to the theory as “mystery” or “cant be explained”. The mental gymnastic is insane.

You know what I love in videos about history and important events? Loud guitar music and some dude standing in a room, looking straight at me like I wore a thong to the gym.
The music really takes away from the presentation. I'm very excited about the content but I literally am turning this video off and haven't made it through a quarter of the video because it's so distracting. The music doesn't compliment the context or content.
They propagated many of the false doctrines in religions today. This included, but not limited to, the trinity doctrine, the most outstanding of all. 👹👹👹
10:15 Need proof for the claim that Christians were forbidden and persecuted in a targeted and wide spread way by the Roman Empire, which seems to be the insinuation. Yes I am aware of the Wikipedia article on the topic of Christian persecution, but the time period in question there cited sporadic and localized incidents, such as Nero. But the claim that all Christians were forbidden and persecuted sustaining over many years and systematically by the Roman empire before Constantine is a dubious one.
How come the other 2 Abrahamic religion view Jesus as a human being while only Christian believe he's a God. Clearly he was born by natural course from Mary and how is this natural birth misinterpreted as the birth of son of God?
One of the most topics I believe is missed was they didn't know where to place their capital of the faith. Emperor Hadrian having hated Jews so much had their cities and history erased. Constantine's mother was dispatched to find Jerusalem and the place of the true cross. At the time "Jerusalem" was a village, home to Asiatic Jewish tribes. Coincidently the area was found to be a holy site and became a power base for Constantine in the most ideal location. What if it wasn't the true Jerusalem though?
I would say the story of Arianism is allegorical of the Aryans becoming dispossessed of Christianity. You see Christianity was a British creation that was taken out to Rome in AD 37 by the British high King Caradoc. His grandson Linus was the first Christian Bishop and Britain was the first Christian country in the world. Christians were never persecuted in Britain like they were out east and there is a ton of folklore and myth connecting the holy family to Britain. Joseph of Arimathea is buried in Britain as is the soldier who is said to have speared Jesus. The Brits, including the Danes, Angles, Saxons and Jutes among others are the Khumry and from Qumran to the Jutland peninsula, anciently known as the Cimbric or Cimbrian peninsula, to Northumbria and Cumbria in the Brittonic old North, and Cambria in modern day Wales, these and others are the settlements of the Khumry and the Khumry are the descendants of Adam. However in AD 562 a comet broke up over Britain destroying about 90% of the population and leaving a trail of vitrified rock in its wake still detectable today. Sometime after this Christianity was acquired by the Roman Church who set about rewriting British and world histories to cover what they had done and introduced the concept of the trinity, based on the Hyksos Egyptian system I believe. Constantine was also a Brit, from York who had ambitions of Empire out East, or perhaps this history was fabricated by the Church also!
British were worshiping Sun, tree , stars and stone while Africans and middle eastern worship father son and Holy Spirit! Let us not fabricate crazy crap 💩 like Muslims!
The 'holy trinity' may well be a coded political message. Begin with the concept of primogeniture, where the eldest son inherits the entire estate when his father dies. Project this to rules of royal succession: The current king is legitimate because he is the first born son of the 'holy ghost', or what is now the ghost of the previous king. The current king's first born son is the legitimate heir to the throne, thus 'the father, the son, and the holy ghost'. Since royal successions were often messy, this was coded in religious terms. A lot of people that 'never understood' the religious doctrine might have assimilated the intended secular meaning without even realizing it.
Wonderful explanation. Many people completely overlooked the fact, that the Bible was written by men, thinking it's a book it fell out of the sky. I was raised a Christian, however I wasn't brainswashed i loved to investigate and I love history.

Islam is the only religion of truth. God promised to protest the holy Koran from any corruption. And here we are 1400 years later with people converting to Islam in droves just like the Koran said they would.
The greatest crime of Christianity was the systematic removal of the teachings in REINCARNATION by Pope Vigilius on the orders of Emperor Justinian I approximately in year 540. Credit to Saint Catherine of Siena for revisiting this natural spiritual law, the Dialogue she spoke in trance.
This is so ridiculous and shows that men have long altered words to suit their own agendas, similar to what we're seeing with the word woman being redefined. The word begotten literally means made. Son literally means heir. Christ always made it clear that He was a created being throughout His time on Earth, so Arius was correct. These so-called bishops will be judged harshly for their conspiracy with the pagan king.
Thank you. The Christians here who are agreeing with him are only doing so because he's not telling it like it should be told. He's rewording things to the liking of Christians without calling a spade a spade
as a muslim I'm finding lots of similarities with arius ideas, we also believe Jesus was miraculously born without father and had the ability, with Gods permission to do miracles and spread his word, but hes still one of his creation, and is and will never be equal to the creator
@@aeman2080 Muslims do not believe Jesus is the Savior/Messiah/Christ/Annointed One of the Father. They do not believe he is God's only begotten Son or the King of all Kings. They do not believe we can be spiritually reborn as Christ was through the Holy Spirit. They only believe him to be a mere human prophet when he is the Divine Lord and sole Mediator between humanity and God, currently standing at the right hand of the throne of God- awaiting the day when he will return to exact vengeance and judge us all.

He was also a pagan and wanted to find a way to join Christians (Jesus followers) and paganism so that there would be less strife. He became a Christian to meld the two together. Thus we have the so called Christian religions that are all over the world and none of them agree on anything.
@@Sumermak No, Constantine wasn't wanting to "find" a way to join Christians. He was Emperor: he could do what he wanted, without regard for anyone else's feelings on the matter. He became a Christian because of a genuine mystical experience. The vast majority of Christianity follows some version of the Nicene Creed, thereby they are in agreement on the foundations of the faith.

The pre-Roman Celtic Church of Britain and Ireland refused to accept the edicts passed at the Council of Nicea even some 300 years after it. They took their Sabbath-keeping practice from the Quartodeciman ("14th") churches founded by the Apostle John across Asia Minor. This changed at the Synod of Whitby in 664 when King Oswy of Northumbria, England, was swayed by the clever arguments of wily Roman clerics to accept the new Roman "Easter" named after the pagan goddess Eostre/Eastre in place of remembering the Lord's death (as He instructed) on the Biblical date (not day of the week) of Passover on Nisan 14. The British Church turned Roman from this point with the so-called "Protestants" keeping Roman observances, such as the Mass of Christ ("Christ-Mass"), fasting on "Lent," and other such man-made traditions (which Yeshua warned make the Word of God of none-effect), and they have been keeping the Romish days without question ever since.
What a missed opportunity this video is showing an incomplete picture. Constantine is the main reason Jesus is considered divine today. When voting on the issue of divinity or any new dogma for that matter, the bishops maintained that the only way they knew the Holy Spirit was speaking through them was to come to a unanimous decision. Well when it came to whether Jesus was just a human or more, there were a handful of bishops that would not budge and refused to vote for divinity. So Constantine, eager to consolidate his power in the waning days of the Sol Invictus cult and nearing the end to his own life, decided to basically rig the vote by throwing out the votes of the dissenting bishops and whammo, you suddenly have a unanimous vote to call Jesus divine. Soooo yeah, all that death....based on a rigged vote. I'm sensing a repeating pattern here... Also the formula for finding the date of Easter in any given year is this: Easter falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon following the spring equinox.
Paul wrote his letters about three hundred years before this council and always affirmed that if Jesus wasn’t devine then all christianity would be in vain. He and the rest of the New Testament writers affirm His divinity. But even in the Old Testament like the prophet Isaiah (7:14) writes that Jesus would be Emmanuel, God among us. But then again you’ll believe what ever you want to believe. Peace!
@@fluidikons How did you learn that from seminary? We have early church writings from Irenaues and Justin Martyr that affirm Jesus’ divinity. That’s the first thing they would have taught you at seminary
"Constantine is the main reason Jesus is considered divine today." That is not true. The council was called precisely to address this 'new shoot' of Arian's teaching that was not what had been passed down and taught. The Church, as a whole, absolutely and already believed in the divinity of Christ.
Jesus Christ was always seen as divine, even as a created being. No one says angels aren't divine despite being God's creation, so why would His only begotten Son not be seen as divine?
A universal God who created the universe and everything else in only six days but it took 'Him' forty days and forty nights to write 10 laws on two stone tablets and another man had to be there with 'Him' and fasted forty days and forty nights all along as well, and then 'He' took some four thousand years or so to write a book for humans to compiled, edited, translated, debated, and argued continually till nowadays with no solution, how impressive?

No Jewish bishops were present, which was why the Gentiles by themselves were able to stray and make up and pass new edicts to effect change of the Sabbath, Passover etc.
Ready to kill over some detail of their shared fantasy. You know if I truly thought that Jesus was god on earth and had existed for ever, I would pay more attention to what he actually said.
There is plenty of proof that Jesus is the Son of God. Open your mind and heart to that fact. Read the first 5 book of the NT and ask yourself two very simple questions: 1. What changed to cowards who deserted Jesus on the night before He died? 2. If Jesus had NOT risen from the dead and the Apostles KNEW he had NOT, why would they be willing to die for a lie?
@@karlbrady5453 most importantly..., Jesus is not a matter of fact, but a matter of faith. 'you are saved by grace through FAITH. ' and FAITH is the substance of things HOPED FOR.., the evidence of things NOT SEEN.' The mystery of Christ can only appreciated through FAITH. there is no proof, there are no facts; neither are such things required. this obsession with facts is a product of modernism. So Jesus asks in Luke 18:8 'when the son of man comes, will he find faith on earth?' FAITH, and faith alone is the pathway to a mystery that transcends facts....,

Trinitarianism is monotheism. Arianism isn’t monotheism. Why? Well Arianism teaches that the Father and Son are not co-equal. Arius argued that the Son was created by the Father. Jesus is seen as divine but not equal with the Father. Therefore, according to Arianism, the Father and the Son are two distinct and separate divine beings. Whereas the Trinity, They are united in nature and are One Being, One God. As for Islam, there has been many religions that were revealed by an “angel of light” so what makes Muhammad’s revelation true and not another revelation like Joseph Smith’s? Arianism fell before the 7th century by the way.

At 3:11 - I love his definition of "consubstantial." Philosphically accurate but laughably unscriptural. What "stuff" was the Father and Son "made" out of. 🤣🤣 I tried to submit a paper in seminary entitled "God Stuff" about the logical absurdity of the term homoosian (consubstantial), but they refused to let me.
I don't know how you can read the scripture and not notice all the times Jesus clearly states that he acts on behalf of the father, derives his power from the father, prays to the father, doesn't speak of his own accord, etc. and not think that Jesus is subordinate to the father. Weigh that against all the times he says he is equal to the father (none, absolutely zero). Not to mention all the times both Jews and Christians are warned there is one God. Read Isaiah, or Matthew where Jesus states the Shemah is the number onemost important lesson. "Hear o Israel, the Lord is God, the Lord is one..."

The term "It doesn't make an iota's worth of difference" comes from the Arian/Trinitarian controversy. Trinitarians believe that God the Son was of the same nature as the God the Father. Arians believed that God the Son was of "like nature" with God the Father. The Greek word for "same nature" is "homousious" and the word for "like nature" was "homoiusious." The only difference was the letter "i" - in Greek, "iota." Many in society didn't see the difference.
And the pharoahs were called "son of God" and considered themselves God, Son of God, and with the spirit of God. You're so confused. Jesus was Pharoah and wanted to free Hebrews from slavery. The Hebrews just. Didn't. Get. It.

Constantine was No Christian. Constantine and his clever politicking while passing "laws" against the primary teachings of Christ just as Paul and Christ emphatically warned the new Christian church did so to stop the fighting & persecution. He worshiped Pluto and Saturn yet was the "Christian (???)" emperor who passed new Views & teachings thus adopted "law". _"Worship our way or be brutally persecuted and tortured; even burned alive!"_ A year after The First Council of Nicaea Constantine had his wife and son murdered. Nice guy.
It was Constantine who passed a law voted by various bishops; many involved in mystic views - that Christ and Elohim & the Spirit were one single sentient being. Ironic that this view has a very deep pagan Greek polytheistic origin. Prior to the The First Council of Nicaea, The "Aryan" view was the accepted view for hundreds of years. Oh and btw when Constantine decided to become baptized _(on his death bed because that way he believed he would not be held accountable for his many past sins);_ The Bishop who baptized him was Aryan.
The original Christian founders were Jews and they repeatedly admonished future generations of the "last days" to "get out of Babylon (the great)" because we are *in* Babylon the great aka False teachings or the doctrines of men. Then move on to Easter and Sunday and Saturday, Hell Fire etc - just some of many pagan doctrines that Paul warned would creep into the Church. And tell me why was John's first vision regarding the degradation of the Church and it's teachings? Why would God judge the Church so harshly if innocent? Why are there page after page of denunciations regarding the state of the Church and teachings found w/i the words spoken by Elohim Himself then recorded by the likes of Isiah or Ezekiel or Daniel and again for this very hour or generation? There are 3 full pages side by side in Ezekiel alone of how poorly the average pastor and self proclaimed prophet would behave in this very hour and all the false teachings therein.
The Trinity is the oldest pagan doctrine around, as old as Nimrod. And All the prophets in unison say that 90% of the pastors today will be teaching false doctrine. John echos this in his vision on the Isl of patmos. The church is corrupt. "The Reformation" did reform but failed to restore the simple purity of the redemptive message via the Christ through the prophets.
Read the first 3 denunciations of the church. At the end of all three - _Elohim speaks in threes for emphasis_ - it states (in a nutshell) that the one who clearly sees the sins of the Church will be written in the book of life.
Jesus first created and Beloved son of Elohim; our true Risen King currently Sits at the Right hand of Himself? Yeshua is the first created being "first son" within our reality as we understand it. Elohim then created all the angels. Yeshua/Jesus is the very seed of Creation Himself. (Read the first few chapters of Hebrews - use a good translation - then read the Septuagint - that is if you are brave enough to take the red pill.). He is the only angelic being able to create. All things (w/i our reality) are created by Him, through Him and for Him. He holds all the Adamic and Angelic DNA. There exist 12 distinct types; Jesus being the Archetype. This is exactly how Jesus was able to be born of the tribe of Judah when Mary was not. Yeshua used the living spirit and power of Elohim to create with Elohim's approval and authority. Jesus was full man/human when He walked the Earth thus in his success proved Satan's claims as false. He facilitated His father's life sustaining spirit to aid Him - to Heal others etc. He is the first fruit of many (to come). Peter, John, Paul were able to access Elohim's spirit as well with the same power later but not until after Jesus finished His commission.
To quote Tozer in a nutshell "The Trinity; the greatest Mystery never contested"

It does a great job modeling the political opportunism at the heart if the First Nicene Council's theological debates.

@@larrydewein You’re a heretic, he states he and the Father are one. No one taught your heretical beliefs until now.
I've always wondered. Thanks for specificity.
The fact that the church thought that the Son could not be a creation of God due to John Chapter 1v1 is totally unreasonable. The word (or Son) was in the beginning. The beginning of what? God is eternal and had no beginning. The book of Revelation, written by the same apostle John in chapter 3 and verse 14 tells us that the Son (Identified as then faithful and true witness) was the beginning of creation BY God. So, the beginning mentioned in John 1;1 is the beginning of creation. The son is quite obviously the firstborn (brought forth, created) of all creation. The first thing made by the Father. Everything makes sense in the koine Greek when we realize that the Son is created. Divine yes, but created.
Good point! Thank you!! I never noticed that Scripture before!
Yes, this is and was obvious.
The council of Nicaea was likely political theatrics and the result was determined well before its conclusion.
Constatine's Church clearly had two main objectives; 1) differentiate Christianity and Judaism and 2) incorporate more Greek philosophy into scripture. The cosubstantiation of Jesus and the Trinity accomplishes both of these goals, in spite of direct scripture.
To Constantine and radical Greek bishops, Ariansim was simply too Jewish to be considered uniquely Roman.
@@Chadwick-k7x interesting comment. It does seem that the church of the third/fourth century was doing everything possible to free itself of being a sect of judaism. To the extent of corrupting the very nature of God.

Hi. I’m a Greek Christian. The Greek scriptures do not teach the trinity. The Council of Nicaea was influenced by pagan Greek thought.
I appreciate that you are capable of discussing the historicity of the Christian church(es) without looking down your nose at the faith.

But nobody has to respect the ideology.

Council of Nicaea changed the Word of God to fit their own agenda. They formed the Trinity which is adding to the Word. Paul spoke about this and said let anyone who adds or takes away from the words in the Bible be accursed. God is One. Jesus is God in a fleshly body. The reason John chapter 1 is correct concerning Jesus is that He always was but not in human form already. he was in the very plan(Word) of God from the beginning. Then it says the Word becomes flesh. Easy to understand that with some revelation

I was pleasantly surprised! An even-handed video on a touchy subject.

At 8:40 - Melitius of Lycopolis was not "insubordinate" to the bishop of Alexandria. There was no heirarchy above the local church before Nicaea created the Pentarchy, when the Roman State the Bishop of Alexandira over the bishops of Egypt. Melitius was part of the controversy with Arius, because in the previous generation, Peter unilaterally excommunicated Arius when he was young as a way of attacking Melitius for siding with the Novatian "rebaptizers" after Cyprian and the Romans started forging doctrines around the idea of denying Christ under persecution and then asking for forgiveness when the persecution ended.
Novatus said the Church did not have authority to readmit those who denied Christ publicly, but the sect eventually settled on readmittance if the people were rebaptized, because it was literally the 1st generation after child baptism became a thing, and they were essentually saying they weren't really born again. Cyprian and the bishop of Rome contested this as a heresy more to preserve Cyrpians own office, becaue he fled from Carthage when the persecution started, and then tried to make up rules of readmittance, claiming that the Roman Catholic "mother church" baptism was always efficacious. He even added the term "again" to John 3:5 to claim that one is "born again of water and the spirit," to make the case, which Jerome added to the Latin Vulgate, all to prop up the false doctrine of baptismal regeneration.
Melitius and many others sided with Novatus, who was elected by the elders of Rome to be the next bishop, while his rival who sided with Cyprian was elected by popular vote, many of whom had relatives that denied Christ that they wanted readmitted into the Church, while Novatus was saying this was not permitted. The bishop of Alexandira, (Dionysus I believe) also fled when persecution started, so he naturally sided with Cyprian, leading to his successor Peter condeming Melitius for taking the opposite stance. This claim was based on the idea of the regional Synod at Carthage being authoritative over the churches of Egypt, rather than the bishop of Alexandria, who attended the conference. But the Alexandrian bishops were always pushing for more power, which led to them eventually beating the bishop of Constantinople to death when someone from a rival sect was elected. This led to the Council of Carthage, which was largely about putting Alexandria in its palce.
The early church was a train wreck folks. There was nothing authoritative in the ecumenical councils. Stand under the Word of God. Nothing more.
The first council picking what books are in the Bible was the 382 Council of Rome. Then the 393 Synod of Hippo, 397 Council of Carthage, 1445 Encyclical Council of Florence and then the 1563 Council of Trent. Each one had the same books in them and included the Deuterocanonical books.
So far as I know, only Orthodoxy follows the agreed upon conclusions of the 7 councils. Every other body either ignores (see all protestants) or adds (hello, Rome!) what suits them personally.
@@GopnikVlad The Orthodox do not have the authority to call an Ecumenical Council. They need the pope or an emperor crowned by the pope. That’s why we have more councils, because we have someone with the authority to call one.

Correction on Easter. They didn't change the date of Easter. They changed the celebration of the Resurrection from occurring at Passover to occurring at Easter. Easter was already a Roman holiday to celebrate the goddess of fertility Ishtar, this is why its associated with bunnies. What they changed was that it would be the celebration of the resurrection instead of Ishtar, and instead of celebrating that at Passover
No, this is not true. Debate over the date to celebrate the resurrection first arose in the time of Polycarp and Victor I of Rome. Apparently, the apostle John had taught his disciples in Asia Minor to worship on Nisan 14th according to the Jewish calendar while Paul and Peter had instructed the Roman Christians to celebrate on the rotating date now used so it would always fall on a Sunday. Romans did not worship Ishtar. Ishtar was a Mesopotamian goddess. The closest approximation in Rome would have been Venus. The name "easter" is actual an English problem that had nothing to do with the Romans. Proto-Germanic speakers had a month named after the goddess Ēostre which matched up with the rotating dates of the resurrection celebration, thus the name "Easter" in English.
@@andyontheinternet5777Can you tell me where Paul instructed the Roman Catholic church to celebrate Easter on Sunday?
@@DestinyAwaitsChannel No writing attributed to Peter or Paul teaches this, but it was considered part of apostolic tradition fairly early on. Since Peter and Paul were regarded as the founders of the Roman church, it is reasonable to assume they were the originators, although the claim could be disputed and is likely more nuanced than this.

Good coverage. It is interesting to note that Arianism is very similar to Islam in it's belief of God and Jesus. Christianity and Islam have very similar history and beliefs (including their respect for Jesus) but the biggest difference is that Christians are trinitarians and Muslims are unitarians believing in only 1 indivisible god with Jesus being one of his major prophets.
Arians still believe Jesus is divine, like a being higher than all angels but slightly lower than God.
Christianity,Islam,Judaism are all Abrahamic which is why they are so similar,all 3 co sign each other.
Christianity does not have “respect” for Jesus.
Jesus is God in flesh just as scripture says.
@@kellyanne7225 of course, because the bible said so.
Jehova Witness is more similar to Arianism than Islam.
The council came together to discuss the divinity of Christ, the conclusion being Jesus Christ was divine & second person of a Godhead. Arianism professed Jesus Christ to be a man but the begotten son of God. God is one.
SO .... WHAT YOU'RE SAYING EXTREMELY CLEARLY AND LOUD IS, the notion that "Jesus is a God, is in fact, man-made and the product of a meeting by religious minded MEN and then co-signed by the state .... and it was determined over 300 years after the supposed death and resurrection of "JESUS" ...... Then the "Bible" was revised for over 800 MORE years for a total of OVER 1100 years ..... GOT IT.
Exactly, Jesus says he is the Son of God, and his word trumps all men
There was no Orthodox. The council itself was a search for Orthodoxy. The gospel of John just says that Jesus was with God from the beginning. That does not specifically state that Jesus is eternal, but that Jesus was with God from the beginning. It could be the beginning of the creation of Earth.
With all due respect that doesn't make much sense.

Why is Marcion of Sinope not mentioned?
According to the Catholic Encyclopedia, the Catholic Church changed the baptismal formula from "in the name of Jesus Christ" to "in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" in the second century. The Catholic Church considers Trinitarian baptisms to be valid, and while other baptismal formulas are acceptable, they must have been performed by a church or person who believes in the Trinity.

Notice the 'mitres' the bishops are all wearing? what is their origin? They were exactly the same as the head dresses worn by the priests of Dagon the 'Fish god' ( see 'the pagan origin of the mitre' in google). Harldy fitting for 'Christian' bishops to wear! Just an outward expression of the inward pagan amagamation of beliefs that the council of Nicea introduced to a corrupting church!
The paintings are from centuries after the council. At the council of Nicea miters did not yet exist. We do not see a miter like headdress for bishops before the 11th century, the first small ones probably influenced by the crown of the Byzantine emperor. That is 2000 years after this so called fish God. There is no connection what so ever. This fish god story was invented by a guy in the 19th century with a very bad grasp of history and all he wrote has long been debunked by serious historians.

Are you very sure that the trinity was established well in the Christian church before and the Christians were shocked to know that Arian was teaching differently? 🤔🤔 Bcz Nowhere in the bible we could find the word Trinity. It seems that Constantine was the one who introduced Trinity

You can't tell ppl tht a person tht was once a pegan believer who had power to choose wht is to be worshiped had no bias
The word trinity isn’t in the bible you are correct but throughout both old and New Testament there is proper doctrine proving that God Is one being but 3 distinct persons known as God the Father who is fully God but isn’t The Son or the Holy Spirit, God The Son who is Fully God but isn’t God the Father or The Holy Spirit. And the Holy Spirit who is Fully God But also isn’t God the Father or God the Son. Yet they are the Same God but different Persons.

Constantine was No Christian. Constantine and his clever politicking while passing "laws" against the primary teachings of Christ just as Paul and Christ emphatically warned the new Christian church did so to stop the fighting & persecution. He worshiped Pluto and Saturn yet was the "Christian (???)" emperor who passed new Views & teachings thus adopted "law". _"Worship our way or be brutally persecuted and tortured; even burned alive!"_ A year after The First Council of Nicaea Constantine had his wife and son murdered. Nice guy.
It was Constantine who passed a law voted by various bishops; many involved in mystic views - that Christ and Elohim & the Spirit were one single sentient being. Ironic that this view has a very deep pagan Greek polytheistic origin. Prior to the The First Council of Nicaea, The "Aryan" view was the accepted view for hundreds of years. Oh and btw when Constantine decided to become baptized _(on his death bed because that way he believed he would not be held accountable for his many past sins);_ The Bishop who baptized him was Aryan.
The original Christian founders were Jews and they repeatedly admonished future generations of the "last days" to "get out of Babylon (the great)" because we are *in* Babylon the great aka False teachings or the doctrines of men. Then move on to Easter and Sunday and Saturday, Hell Fire etc - just some of many pagan doctrines that Paul warned would creep into the Church. And tell me why was John's first vision regarding the degradation of the Church and it's teachings? Why would God judge the Church so harshly if innocent? Why are there page after page of denunciations regarding the state of the Church and teachings found w/i the words spoken by Elohim Himself then recorded by the likes of Isiah or Ezekiel or Daniel and again for this very hour or generation? There are 3 full pages side by side in Ezekiel alone of how poorly the average pastor and self proclaimed prophet would behave in this very hour and all the false teachings therein.
The Trinity is the oldest pagan doctrine around, as old as Nimrod. And All the prophets in unison say that 90% of the pastors today will be teaching false doctrine. John echos this in his vision on the Isl of patmos. The church is corrupt. "The Reformation" did reform but failed to restore the simple purity of the redemptive message via the Christ through the prophets.
Read the first 3 denunciations of the church. At the end of all three - _Elohim speaks in threes for emphasis_ - it states (in a nutshell) that the one who clearly sees the sins of the Church will be written in the book of life.
Jesus first created and Beloved son of Elohim; our true Risen King currently Sits at the Right hand of Himself? Yeshua is the first created being "first son" within our reality as we understand it. Elohim then created all the angels. Yeshua/Jesus is the very seed of Creation Himself. (Read the first few chapters of Hebrews - use a good translation - then read the Septuagint - that is if you are brave enough to take the red pill.). He is the only angelic being able to create. All things (w/i our reality) are created by Him, through Him and for Him. He holds all the Adamic and Angelic DNA. There exist 12 distinct types; Jesus being the Archetype. This is exactly how Jesus was able to be born of the tribe of Judah when Mary was not. Yeshua used the living spirit and power of Elohim to create with Elohim's approval and authority. Jesus was full man/human when He walked the Earth thus in his success proved Satan's claims as false. He facilitated His father's life sustaining spirit to aid Him - to Heal others etc. He is the first fruit of many (to come). Peter, John, Paul were able to access Elohim's spirit as well with the same power later but not until after Jesus finished His commission.

But the claim that all Christians were forbidden and persecuted sustaining over many years and systematically by the Roman empire before Constantine is a dubious one.

One of the most topics I believe is missed was they didn't know where to place their capital of the faith. Emperor Hadrian having hated Jews so much had their cities and history erased. Constantine's mother was dispatched to find Jerusalem and the place of the true cross. At the time "Jerusalem" was a village, home to Asiatic Jewish tribes. Coincidently the area was found to be a holy site and became a power base for Constantine in the most ideal location. What if it wasn't the true Jerusalem though?
Asiatic Jewish tribes whats that?How did do they find archaeological sites mentioned in the Bible if no one knows where Jerusalem really is?
I would say the story of Arianism is allegorical of the Aryans becoming dispossessed of Christianity. You see Christianity was a British creation that was taken out to Rome in AD 37 by the British high King Caradoc. His grandson Linus was the first Christian Bishop and Britain was the first Christian country in the world. Christians were never persecuted in Britain like they were out east and there is a ton of folklore and myth connecting the holy family to Britain. Joseph of Arimathea is buried in Britain as is the soldier who is said to have speared Jesus. The Brits, including the Danes, Angles, Saxons and Jutes among others are the Khumry and from Qumran to the Jutland peninsula, anciently known as the Cimbric or Cimbrian peninsula, to Northumbria and Cumbria in the Brittonic old North, and Cambria in modern day Wales, these and others are the settlements of the Khumry and the Khumry are the descendants of Adam. However in AD 562 a comet broke up over Britain destroying about 90% of the population and leaving a trail of vitrified rock in its wake still detectable today. Sometime after this Christianity was acquired by the Roman Church who set about rewriting British and world histories to cover what they had done and introduced the concept of the trinity, based on the Hyksos Egyptian system I believe. Constantine was also a Brit, from York who had ambitions of Empire out East, or perhaps this history was fabricated by the Church also!
None of that is true. Repent and seek God.
I advise you to stop reading pseudo-history and start reading actual history.
British were worshiping Sun, tree , stars and stone while Africans and middle eastern worship father son and Holy Spirit! Let us not fabricate crazy crap 💩 like Muslims!
The 'holy trinity' may well be a coded political message.
Begin with the concept of primogeniture, where the eldest son inherits the entire estate when his father dies.
Project this to rules of royal succession: The current king is legitimate because he is the first born son of the 'holy ghost', or what is now the ghost of the previous king. The current king's first born son is the legitimate heir to the throne, thus 'the father, the son, and the holy ghost'. Since royal successions were often messy, this was coded in religious terms. A lot of people that 'never understood' the religious doctrine might have assimilated the intended secular meaning without even realizing it.
Wonderful explanation. Many people completely overlooked the fact, that the Bible was written by men, thinking it's a book it fell out of the sky. I was raised a Christian, however I wasn't brainswashed i loved to investigate and I love history. Reading the origins of Christianity made me realize that's it's nothing but words to control the masses

Islam is the only religion of truth. God promised to protest the holy Koran from any corruption. And here we are 1400 years later with people converting to Islam in droves just like the Koran said they would.

This is so ridiculous and shows that men have long altered words to suit their own agendas, similar to what we're seeing with the word woman being redefined. The word begotten literally means made.

The pre-Roman Celtic Church of Britain and Ireland refused to accept the edicts passed at the Council of Nicea even some 300 years after it. They took their Sabbath-keeping practice from the Quartodeciman ("14th") churches founded by the Apostle John across Asia Minor.
This changed at the Synod of Whitby in 664 when King Oswy of Northumbria, England, was swayed by the clever arguments of wily Roman clerics to accept the new Roman "Easter" named after the pagan goddess Eostre/Eastre in place of remembering the Lord's death (as He instructed) on the Biblical date (not day of the week) of Passover on Nisan 14.
The British Church turned Roman from this point with the so-called "Protestants" keeping Roman observances, such as the Mass of Christ ("Christ-Mass"), fasting on "Lent," and other such man-made traditions (which Yeshua warned make the Word of God of none-effect), and they have been keeping the Romish days without question ever since.
What a missed opportunity this video is showing an incomplete picture. Constantine is the main reason Jesus is considered divine today. When voting on the issue of divinity or any new dogma for that matter, the bishops maintained that the only way they knew the Holy Spirit was speaking through them was to come to a unanimous decision. Well when it came to whether Jesus was just a human or more, there were a handful of bishops that would not budge and refused to vote for divinity. So Constantine, eager to consolidate his power in the waning days of the Sol Invictus cult and nearing the end to his own life, decided to basically rig the vote by throwing out the votes of the dissenting bishops and whammo, you suddenly have a unanimous vote to call Jesus divine. Soooo yeah, all that death....based on a rigged vote. I'm sensing a repeating pattern here...
Also the formula for finding the date of Easter in any given year is this: Easter falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon following the spring equinox.
Paul wrote his letters about three hundred years before this council and always affirmed that if Jesus wasn’t devine then all christianity would be in vain. He and the rest of the New Testament writers affirm His divinity. But even in the Old Testament like the prophet Isaiah (7:14) writes that Jesus would be Emmanuel, God among us. But then again you’ll believe what ever you want to believe. Peace!
@@atgred yes I know all the refutations. I learned what I learned in seminary actually.
@@fluidikons How did you learn that from seminary? We have early church writings from Irenaues and Justin Martyr that affirm Jesus’ divinity. That’s the first thing they would have taught you at seminary
"Constantine is the main reason Jesus is considered divine today." That is not true. The council was called precisely to address this 'new shoot' of Arian's teaching that was not what had been passed down and taught. The Church, as a whole, absolutely and already believed in the divinity of Christ.
Jesus Christ was always seen as divine, even as a created being. No one says angels aren't divine despite being God's creation, so why would His only begotten Son not be seen as divine?
The fact that they changed the original message of the Creed scripture several times tells you everything.
A universal God who created the universe and everything else in only six days but it took 'Him' forty days and forty nights to write 10 laws on two stone tablets and another man had to be there with 'Him' and fasted forty days and forty nights all along as well, and then 'He' took some four thousand years or so to write a book for humans to compiled, edited, translated, debated, and argued continually till nowadays with no solution, how impressive?
exactly and it still no resolution it just doesnt make sense just further division amongst men
Regarding the cannon of scripture and many other subjects, they are better understood on a historical timeline. So yes, the cannon of scripture was originally determined in 325. Period
How can you believe in the trinity??

and he made us to be a kingdom, priests to his [God and Father]-yes, to him be the glory and the might forever. Amen.

[He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God. And I will write on him My new name.]

No Jewish bishops were present, which was why the Gentiles by themselves were able to stray and make up and pass new edicts to effect change of the Sabbath, Passover etc.

Ready to kill over some detail of their shared fantasy. You know if I truly thought that Jesus was god on earth and had existed for ever, I would pay more attention to what he actually said.
There is plenty of proof that Jesus is the Son of God. Open your mind and heart to that fact. Read the first 5 book of the NT and ask yourself two very simple questions: 1. What changed to cowards who deserted Jesus on the night before He died? 2. If Jesus had NOT risen from the dead and the Apostles KNEW he had NOT, why would they be willing to die for a lie?
@@karlbrady5453 most importantly..., Jesus is not a matter of fact, but a matter of faith. 'you are saved by grace through FAITH. ' and FAITH is the substance of things HOPED FOR.., the evidence of things NOT SEEN.' The mystery of Christ can only appreciated through FAITH. there is no proof, there are no facts; neither are such things required. this obsession with facts is a product of modernism. So Jesus asks in Luke 18:8 'when the son of man comes, will he find faith on earth?' FAITH, and faith alone is the pathway to a mystery that transcends facts....,

Interesting how Arianism fell in the 7th century and then Islam came about also in the 7th century confirming the same message - one God.
Thank Allah for the religion of truth Islam.
Islam was started by a 7th century warlord who murdered hundreds, sold people into slavery, and married a six-year-old.
Too bad it's also the religion of terrorism and antisemitism
Trinitarianism is monotheism. Arianism isn’t monotheism. Why? Well Arianism teaches that the Father and Son are not co-equal. Arius argued that the Son was created by the Father. Jesus is seen as divine but not equal with the Father. Therefore, according to Arianism, the Father and the Son are two distinct and separate divine beings. Whereas the Trinity, They are united in nature and are One Being, One God. As for Islam, there has been many religions that were revealed by an “angel of light” so what makes Muhammad’s revelation true and not another revelation like Joseph Smith’s? Arianism fell before the 7th century by the way.
Islam - founded by a warlord who tried to rewrite the Bible, slaughtered hundreds, sold people into slavery, and married a 6-year-old... all according to Islamic sources.
At 3:11 - I love his definition of "consubstantial." Philosphically accurate but laughably unscriptural. What "stuff" was the Father and Son "made" out of. 🤣🤣 I tried to submit a paper in seminary entitled "God Stuff" about the logical absurdity of the term homoosian (consubstantial), but they refused to let me.
Thumbs down for the annoying background music.

Look up the definition of BEGINNING

I don't know how you can read the scripture and not notice all the times Jesus clearly states that he acts on behalf of the father, derives his power from the father, prays to the father, doesn't speak of his own accord, etc. and not think that Jesus is subordinate to the father. Weigh that against all the times he says he is equal to the father (none, absolutely zero).
Not to mention all the times both Jews and Christians are warned there is one God. Read Isaiah, or Matthew where Jesus states the Shemah is the number onemost important lesson. "Hear o Israel, the Lord is God, the Lord is one..."
