NICAEA And The NICENE COUNCIL OF AD 325

by Marvin M. Arnold

The Trinity Doctrine was invented at Nicaea has shaken the world. Today thousands of studious Christians are very much interested in events that transpired at Nicaea in AD 325. No council in the area of religion more shook, more effected the theological world, than did the NICENE COUNCIL that Bishop Hosius and Emperor Constantine convoked at Nicaea, Turkey. There the controversial TRINITY doctrine was devised, arranged into a formula, approved by Constantine, and made to become concrete Catholic dogma. In the course of time the TRINITY THEORY was adopted by many Protestant religions. Where did the TRINITY idea come from? Why was the Trinity doctrine invented? Who devised the TRINITY DOCTRINE? What is PLATO’S “TIMAEUS?” What is the psychology associated with numeral (3) three? Why was the city of NICAEA chosen? Why was there not a clergyman of Jerusalem’s primitive Judaic-Christianity at the Nicene Council? Where were the monotheistic (one-God) Apostolic Christian clergymen at the time of the famed council? This book is an EXPOSE. It is an effort to bring to light, to unmask the Greek-Latin psychology and motive behind the council, and to reveal the real ecclesiastical meaning embedded in the NICENE CREED.

I read this book when researching about the Council of Nicaea for a history paper. This book is informative, eye-opening, and I learned many things that I was able to cite in my paper! It did a great job giving detailed insights about the event and showing how important the Council of Nicaea was—especially for Christianity. I will say, it can get confusing with the big theological vocabulary and the timeline of when certain things happened. So, just be aware of that before diving into it. But overall, I enjoyed it and found this book extremely interesting!
