Religious Cults & False Prophets~ Discussions and DebatesThe Nicolaitane DoctrineHisway, the doctrine of the Trinity was taught for hundreds of years before 325 A.D. so you have not been teaching historic Biblical Christianity. The Catholic Church you so despise was not even in existence until after Constantine established 5 co-equal Patriarchies after he legalized Christianity in 313 A.D. so your historical references are based on church councils that were called not by the Catholic Church or the Bishop of Rome but by Roman Emperors. Representatives of all the 5 Patriarchies attended these councils until 451 A.D. when the Coptic Orthodox Church (Alexandrian Patriarchy) left the fold over a matter of doctrine. The First Council of Nicea held in 325 A.D. was called by Constantine and presided over by the Bishop of Constantinople not the Bishop of Rome who did not even attend the council meetings. If you are going to appeal to history then at least stop appealing to Catholicism’s attempt to revise history to show it originated with Peter. Your attempt to revise Christian history is just as revisionist as Catholicism’s. You have been posting UPC theology and not Biblical truth on these subjects. I notice you still have not responded to my post regarding baptism in the Spirit, a phrase used only by John the Baptist. Now all you are demonstrating is your total ignorance of the history of Christianity. Around the time Darwin published his "Origin of Species" theologians began to question the inerrancy and accuracy of Scripture. You are hung up on the First Council of Nicea and refuse to move beyond your prejudice. Brad, when you refuse to accept we are not Modalists and pull words out of context so you can continue your idiotic words games you are in fact obfuscating what is being posted by others. |
