Es considerado santo por la Iglesia copta, la Iglesia católica, la Iglesia ortodoxa, la Iglesia luterana y la Iglesia anglicana, además de ser uno de los padres de la Iglesia y unos de los principales doctores de la Iglesia oriental. Atanasio es recordado por haber sido de los mayores defensores de la ortodoxia cristológica proclamada en el concilio de Nicea. Es considerado uno de los padres del desierto.        

This summer marks the 1700th anniversary of the Council of Nicea, which promulgated the Nicene Creed. Along with Catholics and the Orthodox, many Protestant churches affirm the theology of the Nicene Creed, whether or not they use it in their liturgy or formal theological statements. But what about Pentecostals? What should we make of the creed? That's what I ask Frank Macchia in this episode of the Influence Podcast. I'm George P. Wood, executive editor of Influence magazine and your host. Frank Macchia is professor of systematic theology at Vanguard University of Southern California and associate director of the Centre for Pentecostal and Charismatic Studies at Bangor University in Wales. He is author of Tongues of Fire: A Systematic Theology of the Christian Faith, published by Cascade Books, and of Introduction to Theology: Declaring the Wonders of God, published by Baker Academic. ————— This episode of the Influence podcast is brought to you by My Healthy Church, distributors of Open When . . .

Saint Constantine was born in 272, the son of Constantius Chlorus, ruler of the western part of the Roman Empire, and St Helen. When his father died in 306 he was proclaimed successor to the throne. The empire was ruled at that time by several Caesars, each with his own territory. When Constantine learned that the Caesars Maxentius and Maximinus had joined against him, he marched on Italy. It was there that, on the eve of a decisive battle outside Rome, he saw in the sky a radiant Cross with the words "In this sign conquer." He ordered that a battle-standard be made bearing the image of a cross and inscribed with the Name of Jesus Christ. The following day he and his forces attacked and won a spectacular victory. He entered Rome in triumph and in 312 was proclaimed "Emperor of the West" by the Senate. (His brother-in-law Licinius ruled in the East.) Soon thereafter he issued his "Edict of Milan," whereby Christianity was officially tolerated for the first time, and persecution of Christians ceased. (Many believe, mistakenly, that the Edict made Christianity the only legal religion; in fact, it proclaimed freedom of religion throughout the Empire).   Licinius, though he pretended to accept the Edict, soon began persecuting Christians in his domain. In response, Constantine fought and defeated him in 324, becoming sole Emperor of the entire Roman Empire. In 324 he laid the foundations of a new capital in the town of Byzantium; in 330 he inaugurated the new capital city, naming it "New Rome" and "Constantinople." In 325 he called the First Ecumenical Council at Nicea, attending its sessions himself. Shortly before his repose in 337, he received Holy Baptism; he died on Holy Pentecost, at the age of sixty-five, and was interred in the Church of the Holy Apostles in Constantinople.   St Constantine's holy mother Helen, in her role as "Augusta" of the Empire, founded countless churches. She traveled to Jerusalem and found the True Cross on which the Lord was crucified. In the Holy Land she established churches at the sites of Christ's Nativity and burial, which still stand today in much-modified form. She died at about eighty years of age.

¿Cómo se construyo el Canon Bíblico? En los primeros siglos de esta era, circulaban varios escritos sobre los dichos de Yeshua. ¿Cómo se decidió para escoger los escritos para hacer el canon de la Biblia Cristiana? Por casi 300 años, los cristianos no tuvieron una lista sobre escritos sagrados. Las comunidades usaban diferentes textos según sus tradiciones y creencias particulares. No tenían una Biblia oficialmente establecida como el canon. El Concilio de Nicea del año 325 EC convocado por el Emperador Constantino, inicio un proceso de unificación doctrinal. En Nicea había más motivos políticos profundos para manifestar el poder eclesiástico sobre otros, como ocurre en la actualidad. El Concilio de Cártago del año 397 EC, se ratifico la lista de 27 libros que hoy es la Biblia Cristiana (NT). Ernestoard.blogspot.com

Nicea 2 - Jezus, de Zoon van God by Noorderkerk

What relevance does an event which took place 1700 years ago this week have for people today?The event was the gathering of the Council of Nicea- a meeting of Christian bishops by the Roman Emperor Constantine the First. It met in what is now the Turkish city of Iznik from May until the end of July. It was an ecumenical meeting - the first of many to achieve agreement among all the branches of Christianity and it was as much political as it was religiousIts most significant achievement at the time was the agreement on the wording of a Creed - something which many Christians still say during their services today.So why does any of this matter in 2025 and does the wording of that Creed still hold true in today's world?

- «Vi do un nuovo comandamento: che vi amiate gli uni gli altri». Con queste parole Gesù lascia ai suoi discepoli l'eredità più importante. È come se dicesse, anche oggi, “siccome io vi ho amato, siccome avete sperimentato cosa significhi essere amati, allora potete amare a vostra volta”. È l'amore divino che ci dà la misura e la forza per amare concretamente le altre persone. Su questi temi si svolge la meditazione biblica proposta questa settimana da Elisabetta Tisi, parroca della Chiesa cattolica cristiana del Ticino.- Nell'ambito del suo 25.o anniversario, la Comunità di lavoro delle Chiese cristiane nel Canton Ticino (CLCCT) organizza la seconda edizione della Notte delle Chiese, che si terrà a Lugano venerdì 23 maggio. L'iniziativa si inserisce nella scia di eventi analoghi che si terranno la stessa sera con modalità diverse in tutta la Svizzera. La Notte delle Chiese, aperta a tutti, consiste in un percorso ecumenico a piedi alla scoperta di alcune chiese di Lugano e delle comunità che fanno parte della CLCCT. Nell'anno del 1700.o anniversario del primo Concilio ecumenico, quello di Nicea, ad ogni tappa verrà commentata una parte del Credo niceno-costantinopolitano. Parliamo di questo evento con il pastore riformato Daniele Campoli, presidente della CLCCT.

Christ spoke often of the Father. Still, He preached an egocentric message. Jesus said: follow Me · believe in Me · abide in Me · do all for My sake · confess Me · love Me · come to Me · keep My commandments · receive Me · seek Me · I bear witness of Myself · I am the truth · I am the life. Should a created being direct most attention to the Father, or focus upon himself? Bible teachers use a handful of verses to establish Christ's identity. As is his style, Bob Enyart starts with a sweeping overview of the Bible to address the deity of Christ. This study stuns and delights, respectively, those disputing and affirming His divinity. ​* The Deity of Christ -- Another Approach For centuries, as affirmed at the Council of Nicea, Christians have used a wonderful list of Bible verses to demonstrate from God's Word the deity of Jesus Christ. Here though is another avenue, similar to the "Big Picture View" approach that we use in Bob Enyart's life's work, The Plot: An Overview of the Bible:​ Thus Saith the Lord: If we count how many times the Old Testament prophets said, “Thus says the Lord” we find them using that phrase, in the New King James Version of the Bible, about 420 times. The New Testament on the other hand, never once records that phrase. Jesus Christ, with all the red ink devoted to recording His words, never once used that ubiquitous phrase, “Thus saith the Lord.” Rather, Jesus proclaims, “I say to you,” in the Gospels! Not a single “Thus says the Lord,” but rather, “I say to you,” 135 times. The following chart demonstrates biblically that these two phrases, Thus saith the Lord, and I say unto you, indicate the same thing, that God is speaking. For Jesus Christ made it clear that He Himself was at the heart of His teaching.

In his LIVE, interactive Bible Study, as we approach the seventeen hundredth anniversary of the First Ecumenical Council of Nicea, he discusses some of the issues and problems in the Church, which led the Council to affirm the divinity of Christ and give us what we know and still recite each Sunday, the Nicene Creed.

In een serie avonddiensten in de Noorderkerk bezinnen we ons op de geloofsbelijdenis van Nicea-Constantinopel om dieper inzicht te krijgen in de God, in wie we als christenen samen geloven. Daarbij zoeken we ook naar de betekenis en kracht van deze geloofswoorden voor de tijd waarin wij nu leven en geloven. Eerste van zes, ds. Johan Visser, 11 mei 2025

In an unexpected move - well, unexpected for Joe, at least – we revisit an episode from 2017. Eight years ago we had a stab at writing our own creeds and now, having completely forgotten even doing it, we go back to see what we wrote and whether we still agree with it. Also we have important clarifications about cauliflowers, and we worry whether both the podcast and our lives are now travelling in reverse.

The Council of Nicea was 1700 years ago. What should we think about the Nicene Creed adn creeds in general? Does it line up with the what the Bible says on the topic of the Trinity?Pastor Kevin Craft

This week's topics include the ethics of slug control, the 1700th anniversary the council of Nicea, whether transformation is always difficult and what it would be like if we met our internal critic at a party. Also, how do we approach difficult events when it really seems like God is to blame? Oh, and Nick has a theory that stories are like cauliflowers. Or something like that.

Friends of the Rosary,Today, the Catholic Church celebrates the Memorial of St. Athanasius (295-373), Bishop of Alexandria and a champion of the faith as defined by the Council of Nicea in 325 in the battle against the heresy of Arianism.He was subjected to persecution for defending Christ's divinity and was sent into exile from his see five times.Everyone esteemed him as a virtuous, holy man, an ascetic, a true bishop.The Divine Providence preserved him through a lifetime of trial and danger."You will be hated by all because of my name, but whoever endures to the end will be saved," Jesus said to the Twelve, as we read today (Matthew 10:22-25)"When they persecute you in one town, flee to another. Amen, I say to you, you will not finish the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes."Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.

Es considerado santo por la Iglesia copta, la Iglesia católica, la Iglesia ortodoxa, la Iglesia luterana y la Iglesia anglicana, además de ser uno de los padres de la Iglesia y unos de los principales doctores de la Iglesia oriental. Atanasio es recordado por haber sido de los mayores defensores de la ortodoxia cristológica proclamada en el concilio de Nicea. Es considerado uno de los padres del desierto.     

Los números son los ladrillos del universo. Todo el universo es matemático y está construido con números. La elite psicopatocratica nos lleva algunos miles de años de ventaja en estos temas y por eso todo lo que rodea al poder está plagado de simbología numérica. Yo contaba esto en mi primer libro, Blasco Ibáñez desvelado, en referencia a la construcción de la realidad. “La historia no es algo lineal, ni casual. Una frase ampliamente reconocida que refuta la versión dominante, es la que pronunció el escritor George Orwell, autor del libro 1984: “La historia la escriben los vencedores.”, o la del galardonado con el Nobel Winston Churchill que escribió su propia versión de la segunda guerra mundial añadiendo: “La historia será generosa conmigo, puesto que tengo la intención de escribirla.” La historia escrita es una construcción, de la misma manera que se construyen ciudades y edificios, todas ellas con las mismas bases ritualisticas. Tal vez por ello, es fundamental el papel de la masonería, que en honor al origen etimológico de la palabra masón, maestro constructor, tiene toda la relación con el aspecto constructivo; “la historia se construye como todo se construye.” Los constructores de “todo”, tienen una forma ritual de obrar, con patrones definidos del pasado, que se van superponiendo por capas en los tiempos modernos, y que son los mismos, una y otra vez. Y se construye de manera ritual, trabajan con patrones del pasado que se superponen. Y sobre estos se superponen patrones nuevos. Nuevos que se van construyendo. Se trabaja con proporciones, con cifras y con símbolos. Con todos esos flujos de energía que provienen de las sociedades a su vez construidas, con toda esa lógica livinidoso-agresiva de las sociedades que en un momento dado se activan o desactivan. Se catalizan o se polarizan. Ya saben, el famoso solve et coagula. Nosotros no conocemos bien como funcionan esos mecanismos ni el porque de repetirlos una y otra vez vivificando la mitología y la adoración a triadas de dioses de la antigüedad pero sabemos que el número tres “en la cábala judía significa la transmutación de la Energía Creadora y el éxito material y espiritual”. Tan solo podemos acercarnos a reconocer los mecanismos de este engranaje, como funcionan y el porque se repiten; saber como se utilizan es una incógnita. Se aprecian con claridad algunos patrones recurrentes, por ejemplo la vivificación de la mitología, la adoración de las triadas de dioses de la antigüedad, el uso de los ciclos de muerte (13) y resurrección (14) o la utilización de líneas ley.” Hoy, 21 de abril, es el día del aniversario de la fundación de Roma, y a mediodía se produce un mágico momento en el Panteón de Agripa: la luz penetra por el óculo, un agujero justo en la parte superior de la cúpula y desciende hasta la puerta de entrada, donde el emperador esperaba a ser iluminado para remarcar así su condición divina. Como dice Hector del hilo rojo: “Hoy, 21 de abril de 2025, no es un día cualquiera. Es el aniversario de la fundación de Roma, la cuna del poder imperial y espiritual que ha marcado a Occidente durante más de dos mil años. Un día como hoy, en el 753 a.C., Roma fue fundada con un propósito claro: dominar. Ese espíritu conquistador evolucionó con los siglos, transformándose en poder político, militar y luego espiritual a través de la Iglesia. Hoy, en esta misma fecha cargada de simbolismo, muere el Papa Francisco. ¿Casualidad? Para quien conoce los lenguajes ocultos, no existen las casualidades. La muerte del Papa hoy no solo representa el fin de un pontificado, sino el cierre de un ciclo. El “vicario de Cristo”, heredero espiritual de Roma, cae justo en el aniversario del inicio del poder romano. Esto puede ser interpretado como un ritual de renovación: un acto simbólico donde se apaga el viejo orden para dar paso a una nueva etapa. ¿Qué tipo de Papa vendrá ahora? ¿Qué agenda traerá consigo? La sincronía entre la muerte del Papa y la fundación de Roma sugiere que nos encontramos ante el inicio de un nuevo capítulo: quizá más globalista, más controlado, más dirigido a moldear las conciencias bajo un nuevo paradigma. Hoy se cierra una era. Y cuando los símbolos hablan, el futuro ya está siendo escrito en lugares que pocos alcanzan a ver.” Pero es que aún hay mas, mucho más. El papa debería haber fallecido en el año del 8, en el 2024, y posiblemente haya sido así, aunque nunca lo sabremos. Y digo el año del 8 porque este papa es el papa del 8 como podemos ver viendo sus números. Desde su nacimiento un 17 de diciembre de 1936 hasta la de su supuesta muerte, un 21 de abril del 2025 han transcurrido 88 años y 125 días, o sea un 88 y un 8 al sumar el 1, el 2 y el 5. Pero si lo traducimos a meses y días también nos da un 8 ya que son 88 años, 4 meses y 4 días…todo cuadra en las manos de los arquitectos. La hora de la supuesta muerte también nos arroja sendos 8, tanto la oficial como la solar real en Roma. En Roma, a las 7:35 AM CEST del 21 de abril de 2025, la hora solar real es aproximadamente 6:26 AM. Tenemos un 3 más 5 ocho ó un 2 más 6 ocho… Curiosamente el fundador y presidente del Foro Económico Mundial, Klaus Schwab de 88 años, renuncia con efecto inmediato. Como nos dice puntal de dios, “el Papa Francisco ha fallecido el día donde los "engranajes" se accionan para unir calendarios litúrgicos solares de ayer y de hoy. 21 de Abril, dia del "Natale di Roma" 1700 años después del Concilio de Trento. A los 88 años, como nos decía la Dra Yane en febrero. 1700 años del Concilio de Nicea (325 DC), donde se "fijó" el cristianismo y el equinoccio de primavera el 21 Marzo. Suceso que se retomó con el cambio de calendario (1582) tras volver a "fijar" el cristianismo (católico) en el concilio de Trento. 20-21 Abril.” Leemos en la web símbolos, mitos y arquetipos en el articulo “El símbolo de la estrella según su número de puntas y los "cambios estelares" del Papa Francisco I”: “El último Papa es jesuita y en su escudo papal ostenta la estrella de 32 puntas. Pero en dicho escudo papal hay otra estrella que si merece comentario antes de finalizar este artículo que hemos dedicado al símbolo de las estrellas. Una estrella misteriosa en el escudo del Papa Francisco I Los escudos de los papas se confeccionan a partir del escudo que cada uno de ellos tenía cuando era cardenal. En el caso de Francisco I, el escudo de cuando era cardenal de Buenos Aires ha sufrido unos misteriosos cambios que escapan a todo análisis simbólico coherente. Los elementos simbólicos que tenía el escudo de Bergolio cuando era cardenal de Buenos Aires, eran principalmente tres: El emblema de la Compañia de Jesus a la que Bergolio pertenece,situado en la parte superior del escudo Una estrella blanca de 5 puntas situada en la parte inferior izquierda Un racimo de uva blanco colocado en la parte inferior derecha Cuando Bergolio fue nominado Papa, este era el escudo que todos los especialistas del mundo en heráldica realizaron para anunciar la noticia de la elección en periodicos y cadenas televisivas: Como podemos comprobar en ambos casos los tres elementos del interior del escudo se mantienen y los colores de los mismos, tampoco varían. Pero al cabo de unas semanas de la proclamación, el Vaticano hizo publico el sello definitivo del nuevo Papa con unos sutiles cambios que en ningún medio oficial han justificado. Este es el escudo oficial de la polémica que el Vaticano presentó a todo el mundo como el escudo oficial y definitivo del Papa Francisco I: Hay que estar muy atento para percatarse de los dos cambios en la parte inferior: La estrella blanca de cinco puntas se convierte "por arte de magia" en una estrella de ocho puntas dorada. El racimo de uvas blanco se "metamorfea" en una flor de nardo con hojas Cuando el Vaticano presentó de forma oficial el escudo del nuevo Papa, se informó del significado simbólico de los dos elemnentos situados en la parte inferior. Según dicha explicaciónn el Papa Francisco es un gran devoto de los padres de Jesús, por lo que la estrella de 8 puntas representa a la Virgen María y la flor de nardo a San José. Pero ni una palabra del cambio de los dos símbolos, como si las 8 puntas y el nardo provinieran de Buenos Aires. Y esta es la explicación oficial por parte del Vaticano del significado de la estrella y el nardo: "Al incluir en su escudo estas dos imágenes el Papa desea expresar su especial devoción hacia la Virgen Santísima y san José.” Hay que reconocer que a primera vista los cambios no se perciben. Nos atreveríamos a decir que parecen unos cambios cuidadosamente camuflados por expertos en simbología. Es como si se hubiera querido que los cambios pasasen inadvertidos a la mayoría de mortales. Buena prueba de ello es la gran confusión existente en internet con este tema de los cambios en el escudo de Bergolio. En algunas páginas, ni siquiera se han enterado de los cambios y al día de hoy, aún muestran el antiguo escudo. En otras paginas se afirma que el escudo del cardenal Bergolio ya portaba una flor de nardo, solo que ahora luce más bonita. La confusión que reina es total. Cuando Bergolio era cardenal en Buenos Aires se decía que la estrella de 5 puntas de su escudo representaba a la Virgen María y a todos los Santos. Con respecto al racimo de uvas se comentaba que significaba la sangre de Cristo en honor a la Eucaristia y que su familia proviene de una region vinícola. Pero el Vaticano penso que, con estos símbolos, el nuevo Papa sería acusado de comunista, revolucionario, alcohólico y borracho. Estos cambios estelares y florales muestran un gran interés en hacer desaparecer cierto pasado de un argentino que cambio el vino por un Vaticano donde los comunistas no tienen cabida.” Un papa masón, jesuita, comunista, progre, vacunofilo y defensor de la Agenda 2030, lo tenia todo. Un dato final que aporta Guillermo Santos: 31 días de enero + 28 días de febrero + 31 días de marzo + 21 días de abril = 111 días 111 = Muerte del papa Y yo digo que multiplicado por el 8 obtendremos el 888, que es el culmen del materialismo. En gematria cabalística le dan el 88 a la Matrix o a Cristo y el 888 a Jesucristo… ………………………………………………………………………………………. Al fallecer Juan Pablo II, eran 117 los cardenales menores de 80 años en condiciones de votar para elegir un nuevo papa, entre los cuales se encontraba el entonces cardenal Bergoglio, considerado papable, y de quien se dice que logró obtener 40 votos de los 77 que eran necesarios para ser elegido, es decir, el segundo lugar detrás del cardenal Joseph Ratzinger. Joseph Ratzinger según el Vaticano, es el Papa de la historia número 265. Sumemos: 2+6+5=13. Hora de la fumata blanca en el sucesor de Juan Pablo II, a las 17.50h. Sumemos: 1+7+5+0=13. Se anuncia el nuevo papa “Habemus Papam” a las 18.40h. Sumemos: 1+8+4+0=13. Tras la histórica renuncia papal de Benedicto XVI un 13 de marzo del 2013 el colegio cardenalicio sorprendió al mundo con la elección del Cardenal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, el primer Papa latinoamericano, jesuita y probablemente masón. Electo el día 13 del mes 3 del año 2013, sumados todos esos dígitos el resultado es 13. Victor Sanvicens, creador de una secta religiosa, comenta en la conferencia “El misterio del 13 y el Vaticano”: “El Vaticano es una caja de sorpresas, aquí tenéis unos datos que no os van a dejar indiferentes, su relación con la numerología satánica cabalística, después algunos dirán que muchos vemos conspiraciones por todas partes. Juan Pablo II murió el día 2/4/2005. Sumemos: 2+4+2005=13 Juan Pablo II falleció a las 21.37h. Sumemos: 2+1+3+7=13 Significado del número “13” en la Masonería, utiliza la cábala para dar significado a los números. 13 = Muerte y Nacimiento, cambio total, transformaciones 12+1= Mesías (según la interpretación cabalística) y en ocultismo es igual a “13” = Lucifer/Satanás.” Tres papas y vemos como el 13 ha regido sus destinos. Lo cual nos hace sospechar que ambas facciones, la Iglesia Católica y la masonería tienen por encima al verdadero poder-religión en la sombra. ………………………………………………………………………………………. Tampoco debe pasar desapercibido que este papa no quiere ser enterrado como un papa al uso. El papa Francisco será enterrado en la basílica de Santa Maria la Maggiore. No será el único. Hay otros siete papas allí enterrados. Él será el octavo, cumpliendo así sus deseos. El Papa Francisco será sepultado en la basílica de Santa María la Mayor, en lugar del Vaticano, y las modificaciones en la normativa agilizarán tanto las exequias como la convocatoria de los cardenales. Leemos en latercera punto com el titular: “El Papa Francisco tendrá un funeral más sencillo: sin tres ataúdes, ni catafalco ni alusiones a ‘Romano Pontífice’” “El Papa Francisco simplificó el pasado mes de noviembre el ritual de los funerales pontificios eliminando, entre otras, la tradición de los tres ataúdes, el catafalco, el báculo papal o los tratamientos más allá de obispo y Papa. Tal y como subrayó el pasado mes de noviembre el maestro de las Celebraciones Litúrgicas de los Pontífices, el arzobispo Diego Ravelli, se hizo necesaria una segunda edición “porque el Papa Francisco pidió simplificar y adaptar algunos ritos para que la celebración de las exequias del Obispo de Roma expresara mejor la fe de la Iglesia en Cristo resucitado”. Se mantienen las llamadas tres estaciones que preceden al ritual de exequias, es decir, los pasos que deben darse tras la muerte de un Pontífice, aunque en la primera estación se indica que la constatación de la muerte se realizará en su capilla privada, en lugar de en la habitación donde falleció e inmediatamente el cuerpo se depositará en el único ataúd de madera con el interior de zinc, antes de ser trasladado directamente a la basílica. Por último, en la tercera estación, que incluía el traslado del féretro al sepulcro y el entierro, se elimina la tradición de enterrar a los Papas en tres ataúdes: uno de ciprés, un segundo de plomo y un tercero de roble. Además, siguiendo el modelo de los funerales de obispos, durante las ceremonias religiosas se usarán títulos más sencillos, eliminando la alusión ‘Romano Pontífice’.” ……………………………………………………………………………………….

Ludwig Monti"Il figlio, Gesù"Edizioni San Paolowww.edizionisanpaolo.itPietra miliare nella storia della Chiesa, il Concilio di Nicea, contro Ario che sosteneva che il Figlio Gesù fosse una semplice “creatura” e quindi “inferiore” al Padre, proclamò invece che «Gesù Cristo è Dio da Dio, luce da luce, Dio vero da Dio vero, generato, non creato, consostanziale al Padre». Cosa vuol dire tutto ciò? Chi è Gesù Cristo per noi, oggi? Partendo da questa domanda decisiva, Ludwig Monti, fine esegeta, nel presente volume ci propone un percorso che dalla cristologia “alta” di Nicea ci riporta a quella dei Vangeli. Lo fa prendendo in esame alcuni incontri di Gesù, lungo il suo ministero pubblico: relazioni che testimoniano il suo essere il Figlio di Dio nel suo “esserci-per-altri”. In una parola, la “pre-esistenza” del Figlio vista come “pro-esistenza”, vita donata per gli altri, come ben emerge dai racconti della passione, morte e resurrezione, culmine di questo percorso. Il Concilio di Nicea, dunque, come più volte ribadito da Papa Francesco, «affermando che il Figlio è della stessa sostanza del Padre, mette in luce qualcosa di essenziale: in Gesù possiamo conoscere il volto di Dio e, allo stesso tempo, anche il volto dell'uomo, scoprendoci figli nel Figlio e fratelli tra di noi».Ludwig Monti, già monaco della Comunità di Bose, è nato a Forlì nel 1974. Si è laureato presso l'Università di Bologna in Lettere Classiche, con una tesi in Letteratura Cristiana Antica (1993-1998). In seguito ha conseguito un Dottorato di ricerca in Ebraistica presso l'Università di Torino (2001-2004). Biblista e saggista, collabora alle riviste Parola, Spirito e Vita, Ricerche storico bibliche, Rivista Biblica, Rivista del Clero Italiano, Rivista Liturgica, Vita Pastorale e Credere. Tra i suoi volumi: Una comunità alla fine della storia. Messia e messianismo a Qumran (Paideia, 2006); Le parole dure di Gesù (Qiqajon, 2012); I Salmi: preghiera e vita (Qiqajon, 2018); Gesù, uomo libero (Qiqajon, 2020); L'infinito viaggiare. Abramo e Ulisse (EDB, 2020; con B. Salvarani). Con Edizioni San Paolo ha pubblicato: Le domande di Gesù (2019); Qohelet e Gesù (2021). Insieme a M. Cucca e F.

Los fundamentos de la celebración de la Semana Santa, tal como la conmemoramos en la actualidad, se establecieron hace 1700 años, en Nicea, actual Turquía. En el territorio que ahora es el Perú, los primeros registros de la celebración están en los libros de cabildo limeño o autoridad municipal del período colonial. Conozcamos más en el siguiente informe.

The Prophetic word for this week is that we have entered a test to prove our faith this month. God is saying you will have some challenges and test the next few weeks just as Israelites did. God says, “ Do not go backward”. God says, “ I have changed you and prepared your heart to begin to live out the destiny on your life and realize the promised land I have called you too.” But we will face some tough challenges and you will want to abandon your faith and belief in the goodness of God during this time. Fear will come and you will want to run backward.You will try and use past strategies to protect yourselves. God says, “No, only do what I showed you to do. “ Don't use past strategy at this time, just believe in my goodness and go forward. “ God will bring you through this. These decisions will be about relationship, money, security, finances, etc. The tactics will be unfair but God will come through for you if you remain and hold your peace.We are now into the first month of the Hebrew religious calendar year, it is the Month of Nisan and started Saturday March 29. It is the month in which God spoke to Moses and said in Exodus 12:1-2,Use what your soul has grown in, don't go backward and serve Egypt again in our souls. There are no graves there, so you can't go back.(Read) Exodus 14:11,(Read) Exodus 14:13-14, Dates for you to know in Nisan:We also like the Israelites have been catapulted from the bondage of Egypt and we are headed into our new Promised Land of this year of 2025. The Feast of Passover begins on 14th of Nisan which will be Saturday April 12 at night. This is the night that Jesus our Passover Lamb was killed. This is from Exodus 12, you can read it all.The day Jesus will have resurrected is Nisan 17 or Tuesday April 15. The Gregorian day of Easter celebration on Sunday April 20, is not resurrection Sunday, neither is Sunday April 13 (that is still Passover). Sunday is a day that Constantine and the Council of Nicea decided was Resurrection Sunday but to call it Easter.These are dates for your convenience in understanding the integration of the Gregorian and Hebrew calenders this year. Get a copy of the book so you can walk through the entire Feast of Passover this Year with me.Time for Fasting, Prayer and Giving:We are getting ourselves ready for fasting, praying, and giving. Begin to seek the Lord on your Passover offering according to Deuteronomy 16;16-17, “ Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before the Lord thy God in the place which he shall choose; in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles: and they shall not appear before the Lord empty:Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the Lord thy God which he hath given thee.”Start the brand new Hebrew religious calender year off right on Saturday March 29 with a copy of Dr Candice new book “365 Prophetic Revelations from Hebrew Calender”- go to www.Candice Smithyman.comhttps://amzn.to/4aQYoR0Walk Out Your Promotion- Join DREAM MENTORS and BECOME A CERTIFIED COACH!Do you want to be trained as good disciples or biblical life coach ?

Much credit is given to Constantine for his role in calling together the church at Nicea and helping facilitate the foundational creed of the Christian church. But did you know that a mere 10 years later in 335, at the council of Tyre, Constantine exiled one of the fiercest defenders of the faith at the time: Athanasius? Athanasius remained in exile until Constantine's death, and was only welcomed back by his son who restored him as a bishop, who then went on to exile him again a year later. Constantine the great also continued to permit the continuation of pagan temples and rituals, and retained the title Pontifex Maximus meaning “great priest of the Roman cults.” Sounds alot like America's principled pluralism today.Now at first glance these facts are pretty inconvenient for someone who just recently argued that the state has a normative role in correcting the church. If, after all, one of the greatest supposed examples was an emperor who exiled faithful bishops and continued to permit pagan worship then the batting average doesn't look great. This is to say nothing of the countless martyrs of the Catholic Church, the supposedly terrible Spanish Inquisition and even Martin Luther and other zealous reformers. If the State really is supposed to correct the church in certain matters, why all of the errors and excesses?This episode is brought to you by our premier sponsors, Armored Republic and Reece Fund, as well as our Patreon members and donors.

So Joel Webbon dropped a webcast about how the State is to correct the Church, and how this has been normative throughout church history. Well, do forgive me, but I've always opposed sacralism, still do, always will, and the errors and holes in the presentation, historically and logically, were big enough for me to drive my big GMC through, so, we did. Lots of stuff about Constantine, ecumenical councils, etc. Ninety minutes plus today!Also made reference to this article I wrote many years ago on the Council of Nicea.https://equip.org/PDF/DN206.pdf

In AD 324 the controversy over Arianism was dividing Emperor Constantine's recently-unified Roman Empire. Constantine had converted a mere decade ago and achieved spectacular success on the battlefield over his rival Licinius , but was dismayed to return and find that the religion and church he had come to love to was torn apart with squabbling, division, and dissensions. So what happened? Did the church realize their need for clarity on the divinity of the Son and come together at Nicea because they knew they had to hammer out these doctrines? Did Alexander and Arius sit down willingly for the good of the church? Nope. Instead of the church leading the way, Emperor Constantine issued an imperial summons to the warring bishops of the East and West, demanding they convene at Nicea. The result of that month long council was the Nicene creed, a creed that has stood the test of time and is the foundational confession of practically all Christian traditions 1700 years later. This happened again under Emperor Theodosius I & II at Constantinople and Ephesus, under Marcian at Chalcedon, under Justinian again at Constantinople, and on and on. This pattern plays out again and again and again. The church wars, divides, errs, and even apostatizes, and the means of correction that God uses is often the State. This causes us Americans to bristle and protest but it is undeniable that the bulk of church reform has been initiated, carried out, and completed at the hand of the sovereign. Perhaps for all of our spirituality and airtight systematic theology we have forgotten the ordinary, practical means that God uses to save, purify, and protect his church.

Atanasio de Alejandría (en griego, Ἀθανάσιος Ἀλεξανδρείας [Athanásios Alexandrías]) fue obispo de Alejandría, nacido alrededor del año 296 y fallecido el 2 de mayo del año 373. Es considerado santo por la Iglesia copta, la Iglesia católica, la Iglesia ortodoxa, la Iglesia luterana y la Iglesia anglicana, además de ser uno de los padres de la Iglesia y unos de los principales doctores de la Iglesia oriental. Atanasio es recordado por haber sido de los mayores defensores de la ortodoxia cristológica proclamada en el concilio de Nicea. Es considerado uno de los padres del desierto.

These seven holy Bishops give a vivid picture of the dangers endured by those who traveled to proclaim the Gospel of Christ in the early centuries of the Church. All seven were sent as missionary bishops to Cherson on the Black Sea, and all seven died there as Martyrs. Hermon, Bishop of Jerusalem, first sent Ephraim and Basileus; Basileus raised the son of the prince of Cherson to life, after which many believed and were baptized. The unbelievers, though, bound him by the feet and dragged him through the streets until he died. Ephraim was beheaded when he refused to make sacrifice to the idols. Eugenios, Agathodoros, and Elpidios were then sent by the Bishop of Jerusalem; they were beaten to death with rods and stones. Aetherius was sent during the reign of Constantine the Great, and was able to govern the Church in freedom and peace, and to build a church in Cherson. Capito, the last to be sent, brought the Gospel to the fierce Scythians. To prove the power of his God, they asked him to go into a burning furnace, saying that if he was not consumed, they would believe. Putting all his trust in God, the holy Bishop vested himself, made the sign of the Cross, and entered the furnace. He stood in the flames, fervently praying, for an hour, and came out untouched. The spectators cried out 'There is one God, the great and powerful God of the Christians, who keeps His servant safe in the burning furnace!', and all those in the town and the surrounding countryside were baptized. This miracle was spoken of at the Council of Nicea (325). Later, Scythian unbelievers captured Capito and drowned him in the River Dnieper.   The Prologue says that Aetherios ended his life in peace; the Great Horologion, that he was drowned. All these holy missionaries labored around the beginning of the fourth century.

In this episode, we welcome Wesley Huff to the show. He is a Christian Apologist, writer, speaker, scholar, and the Central Canada Director for Apologetics Canada. His specialty is biblical manuscripts and Christian theology. He holds a BA in sociology from York University, a Masters of Theological Studies from Tyndale University, and is currently doing a PhD in New Testament at the University of Toronto's Wycliffe College.  In this interview, we discuss the viral debate he did with supposed ancient civilizations expert Billy Carson, how that led to go Joe Rogan inviting him to come on The Joe Rogan Experience, what he expected that conversation to be like compared to how it actually went, how he felt about sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ on the biggest media platform in the world, what life looks like for him now, why Christians need to reckon with a “theology of the body”, how the Bible can be inerrant and still contain contradictions, how to deal with arguments that go against the validity of the Bible by citing textual variants and the lack of original autographs, why Protestants and Catholics have different bibles, what actually happened at the Council of Nicea, what evidence he would need to see to disbelieve in Christianity, whether or not he thinks we are about to experience an Awakening, and much more.

He was consecrated Bishop of Berea (Aleppo) in Syria, then of Antioch in 324. He took an active part in the Council of Nicea against the Arian heresy. His zeal for the Faith aroused the hatred of various heretics, who convened a council in Antioch where, by means of slanders and false witnesses, they were able to have the holy bishop deposed and exiled to Thrace, where he died a few years later.   The deposition of the Saint caused a schism in the Church of Antioch which was not healed until 414 (see St Meletius, Feb. 12). Saint John Chrysostom publicly praised Eustathius as a Martyr, and his relics were finally brought back to Antioch in 482. The Synaxarion says "The people then went in jubilation to meet him with lights and incense, and escorted him as he made a triumphal entry into his city, which thus recovered its unity in the Faith and in the veneration of this champion of Orthodoxy."

How often do you celebrate the 1700th anniversary of anything? 2025 marks the 1700th anniversary of the Council of Nicea, which gave us most (though not quite all) of the Nicene Creed (completed and perfected at the Council of Constantinople in 381, but frankly, nobody wants to say "The Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed"). Dad and I talk you through what's at stake in the trinitarian assertions of this Creed, compare and contrast it with the Apostles' Creed, and strongly urge you to make it a centerpiece of your preaching and teaching in this year of grace!

Saint Athanasius, pillar of Orthodoxy and Father of the Church, was born in Alexandria in 275, to pious Christian parents. Even as a child, his piety and devotion to the Faith were so notable that Alexander, the Patriarch of the city, took Athanasius under his protection. As a student, he acquired a thorough education, but was more interested in the things of God than in secular learning, and withdrew for a time into the desert to sit at the feet of Saint Anthony (January 17), whose disciple he became and whose biography he later wrote. On returning to Alexandria, he was ordained to the diaconate and began his public labors for the Church. He wrote his treatise On the Incarnation, when he was only twenty. (It contains a phrase, still often quoted today, that express in a few words some of the depths of the Mystery of the Incarnation: God became man that man might become god.)   Just at this time Arius, a priest in Alexandria, was promoting his enticing view that the Son and Word of God is not of one essence with the Father, but a divine creation of the Father. This view, which (as Athanasius realized) strikes at the very possibility of mankind's salvation, gained wide acceptance and seemed for a time to threaten the Christian Faith itself. In 325, the Emperor Constantine the Great convoked a Council of the Church at Nicaea to settle the turmoil that the Arian teaching had spread through the Church. Athanasius attended the Council, and defended the Orthodox view so powerfully that he won the admiration of the Orthodox and the undying enmity of the Arians. From that time forth his life was founded on the defense of the true consubstantiality (homoousia) of the Son with the Father.   In 326, not long before his death, Patriarch Alexander appointed Athanasius to be his successor, and Athanasius was duly elevated to the patriarchal throne. He was active in his pastoral role, traveling throughout Egypt, visiting churches and monasteries, and working tirelessly not only to put down the Arian heresy, but to resolve various schisms and moral declines that affected his territory.   Though the Arian heresy had apparently been condemned once and for all at Nicea, Arius had many powerful allies throughout the Empire, even in the Imperial court, and Athanasius was soon subjected to many kinds of persecution, some local, some coming from the Imperial throne itself. Though he was Patriarch of Alexandria for more than forty years, a large amount of that time was spent in hiding from powerful enemies who threatened him with imprisonment or death. Twice he fled to Rome for protection by the Pope, who in the early centuries of the Church was a consistent champion of Orthodoxy against its various enemies. From his various hiding places, Athanasius issued tracts, treatises and epistles which helped to rally the faithful throughout Christendom to the Orthodox cause.   In 366, the Emperor Valens, fearing a revolt of the Egyptians on behalf of their beloved Archbishop, officially restored Athanasius to favor, and he was able to spend the last seven years of his life in peace. Of his forty-seven years as Patriarch, about seventeen were spent in hiding or exile. He reposed in peace in 373, having given his entire adult life, at great suffering, to the defense of the Faith of Christ. With St Athanasius, the Church commemorates St Cyril (Kyrillos), also Archbishop of Alexandria (412-44). His lot was to defend the Faith against the heretic Nestorius, Patriarch of Constantinople, who denied that Christ in his Incarnation truly united the divine with the human nature. Cyril attempted in private correspondence to restore Nestorius to the Christian faith, and when this failed he, along with Pope Celestine of Rome, led the defense of Orthodoxy against Nestorius' teaching. Saint Cyril presided at the Third Ecumenical Council in 431, at which the Nestorian error was officially overthrown. After guiding his flock for thirty-two years, he reposed in 444.

Full Text of ReadingsMonday of the First Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 305The Saint of the day is Saint Hilary of PoitiersSaint Hilary of Poitiers' Story This staunch defender of the divinity of Christ was a gentle and courteous man, devoted to writing some of the greatest theology on the Trinity, and was like his Master in being labeled a “disturber of the peace.” In a very troubled period in the Church, his holiness was lived out in both scholarship and controversy. He was bishop of Poitiers in France. Raised a pagan, he was converted to Christianity when he met his God of nature in the Scriptures. His wife was still living when he was chosen, against his will, to be the bishop of Poitiers in France. He was soon taken up with battling what became the scourge of the fourth century, Arianism, which denied the divinity of Christ. The heresy spread rapidly. Saint Jerome said “The world groaned and marveled to find that it was Arian.” When Emperor Constantius ordered all the bishops of the West to sign a condemnation of Athanasius, the great defender of the faith in the East, Hilary refused and was banished from France to far off Phrygia. Eventually he was called the “Athanasius of the West.” While writing in exile, he was invited by some semi-Arians (hoping for reconciliation) to a council the emperor called to counteract the Council of Nicea. But Hilary predictably defended the Church, and when he sought public debate with the heretical bishop who had exiled him, the Arians, dreading the meeting and its outcome, pleaded with the emperor to send this troublemaker back home. Hilary was welcomed by his people. Reflection Christ said his coming would bring not peace but a sword (see Matthew 10:34). The Gospels offer no support for us if we fantasize about a sunlit holiness that knows no problems. Christ did not escape at the last moment, though he did live happily ever after—after a life of controversy, problems, pain and frustration. Hilary, like all saints, simply had more of the same.
