Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Trinity - Ontology of the Trinity

Trinity - Historical view and usage. The Trinitarian view has been affirmed as an article of faith by the Nicene (325/381) and Athanasian creeds (circa 500), which attempted to standardize belief in the face of disagreements on the subject. These creeds were formulated and ratified by the Church of the third and fourth centuries in reaction to heterodox theologies, usually involving the nature of the Trinity and/or Christ's position in it. The Nicene-Constantinopolitan Creed (381 version) is still affirmed by Ort ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Catholicism - Brief organizational history of the Church

The early Catholic Church came to be organized under the three patriarchs of Rome, Alexandria and Antioch, to which later were added the patriarchs of Constantinople and Jerusalem. The Bishop of Rome was at that time recognized as first among them, as is stated, for instance, in canon 3 of the First Council of Constantinople (381) - many interpret "first" as meaning here first among equals - and doctrinal or procedural disputes were oftentimes referred to Rome, as when, on appeal by St Athanasius against the decision of the Council of Tyre ( ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Trinity - Scripture and tradition

The word Trinity comes from a Latin abstract noun which most literally means "three-ness" (or "the property of occurring three at once"). The term Trinity does not appear in the Bible, and indeed did not exist until about AD 200 when Tertullian (who eventually converted to Montanism) coined it as the Latin trinitas and also probably the formula Three Persons, One Substance as the Latin tres Personae, una Substantia itself roughly derived from the Greek treis Prosoponoi, Homoousios in the early third century. A term which ro ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Council of Chalcedon - Historical background

Council of Chalcedon - Relics of Nestorianism. After the Council of Ephesus had condemned Nestorianism, there remained a conflict between patriarchs John of Antioch and Cyril of Alexandria. Cyril claimed that John remained Nestorian in outlook, while John claimed that Cyril held to the Apollinarian heresy. The two settled their differences under the mediation of the bishop of Beroea, Acacius, on April 12, 433. In the following year, Theodoret of Cyrrhus assented to this formu ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - East-West Schism - Origins

Since its earliest days, the Church recognized the special positions of three bishops, who were known as patriarchs: the Bishop of Rome, the Bishop of Alexandria, and the Bishop of Antioch. They were joined by the Bishop of Constantinople and by the Bishop of Jerusalem, both confirmed as patriarchates by the Council of Chalcedon in 451 (see Pentarchy). The patriarchs held both authority and precedence over fellow bishops in the Church. Among them, the Bishop of Rome (the Pope) was deemed to hold a higher status, by virtue of his position as ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - East-West Schism - Early schisms

The Great Schism was not the first schism between East and West; there had, in fact, been over two centuries of schism during the first millennium of the Church. From 343 to 398, the Church was split over Arianism, a doctrine supported by many in the East, though rejected by the Pope in the West. A new controversy arose in 404, when the Byzantine Emperor Arcadius deposed the Roman-backed Patriarch of Constantinople, John Chrysostom. The Pope soon broke off communion with all the eastern patriarchates, for they had countenanced Chrysostom's banishment. The division was healed only in 415, when the eastern patriarchs ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Binitarianism - Church of God binitarianism

Binitarianism is a term also adopted to explain a view associated particularly with some branches of the Sabbatarian Church of God, which asserts that there were originally two beings in the Godhead: the Father and the Word that became the Son (Jesus the Christ). Those who hold this view believe that God is a family which derives its identity from the original patriarch (the Father), and which currently consists of the Father and the Son, but potentially includes those who progress to salvation ("deification"). ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Cyril of Alexandria - Cyril's teachings

Cyril not unjustly bears the title of "Seal of the Fathers", as the one who finally fixed the doctrine of the Trinity. As important as his contribution was to that subject, the question has often been raised whether his Christology does not contain traces of a relationship with Apollinarianism, which he himself opposed from conviction. At any rate, his Christology approaches very near the limit which separates orthodoxy from Monophysitism. It rests on the suppositions of the older Alexandrians (e.g., Athanasius) and the Cappadocian Fa ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Christian liturgy - Frequent liturgical practice

Most Protestant Christian denominations, while often following a fixed "order of worship", do not adhere to a liturgy in the strict sense of the word. Eastern Orthodox churches call the liturgy in which the Eucharist is celebrated and served the Divine Liturgy. This is generally comparable to the Roman Catholic Mass, although in practice they are quite different. This can also refer to the detailed rubrics for this ceremony; two of the best known are the Divine Liturgy of ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Trinity - Scripture and tradition

The word Trinity comes from the Latin noun Trinitas, meaning the state or condition of being three, or a group of three persons or things. The first recorded application of this Latin word to Father, Son and Holy Spirit was by Tertullian in about 200. The Greek term with the same meaning, Τρίας, has given the English word triad. The Sanskrit word, Trimurti, has a similar meaning. The earliest Christians were noted for their insistence on the oneness of God, in contrast to the polytheism of the p ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Roman Catholic Church - Overview

The Roman Catholic Church traces its origins to Saint Peter, apostle to Rome. It rose to prominence with the Constantinian shift in the late Roman Empire (4th century), under Constantine I. Christianity was the Roman state religion from 380. See History of the Roman Catholic Church for details. The Roman Catholic Church teaches that it was instituted by Jesus Christ for the salvation of all people, and that this is accomplished through teaching and administering the seven sacraments - Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Reconciliation ( ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Idolatry in Christianity - Hebrew origins

Idolatry is prohibited by many verses in the Hebrew Bible. There is no one section that clearly defines idolatry; rather there are a number of commandments on this subject spread through the books of the Hebrew Bible, some of which were written in different historical eras, in response to different issues. Taking these verses together, idolatry in the Hebrew Bible is defined as the worship of idols (or images); the worship of polytheistic gods by use of idols (or images) and even the use of idols in the ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Theodoret - The Nestorian controversy

Theodoret stands out prominently in the christological controversies aroused by Cyril of Alexandria. Theodoret shared in the petition of John I of Antioch to Nestorius to approve of the term theotokos ("mother of God"), and upon the request of John wrote against Cyril's anathemas. He may have prepared the Antiochian symbol which was to secure the emperor's true understanding of the Nicene Creed, and he was a member and spokesman of the deputation of eight from Antioch called by the emperor to Chalcedon. To the condemnati ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Abrahamic religion - The Supreme Deity

Judaism and Islam visualize God in strictly monotheistic terms as one being; Christianity believes likewise but for many Christians, God is at the same time an indivisible Trinity, with three distinct persons, a view not accepted in the other two religions. Abrahamic religion - Judaism. Jewish theology is based on the Hebrew Bible, where the nature and commandments of the Jewish Supreme Being are revealed through the writings of Moses (the Torah, known in Christianity as the Pentateuch), and the wri ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Justinian I - Ecclesiastical Relations with Rome

From the middle of the fifth century onward increasingly arduous tasks confronted the emperors of the East in ecclesiastical matters. For one thing, the radicals on all sides felt themselves constantly repelled by the creed adopted by the Council of Chalcedon to bridge the gap between the dogmatic parties. The letter of Pope Leo I to Flavian of Constantinople was widely considered in the East as the work of Satan[citation needed]; so that nobody cared to hear of the Church of Rome. The emperors, however, had a policy of pre ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Coptic Christianity - Coptic Christianity today

The current Coptic Orthodox Pope of Alexandria and the Patriarch of the Holy See of Saint Mark is Pope Shenouda III (his title should not be confused with that of the Roman Catholic Pope). The most recent Greek-Orthodox Patriarch of Alexandria is Theodoros II [3]. There is a small Coptic Catholic Church (Eastern Rite Catholic) which is headed by a Patriarch of Alexandria. The Melkite Catholic Church (Eastern Rite Catholic) has little presence in Egypt, but is headed by a Patriarch of Alexandria, Antioch and Jerusalem. There is also a Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Al ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Christianity - Persecution

Before the Edict of Milan, ancient Christianity was an illegal movement, which many considered anti-social for worshipping an executed criminal in place of the traditional deities of Rome. Many early Christians met their deaths through martyrdom, sometimes in the arena, after refusing to renounce their faith. Persecution of Christians is by no means a thing of the past, and today is generally associated with Muslim or Communist countries. For ex ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Christian liturgy - History of the Liturgy

This section will describe the evolution of the liturgical celebration known as the Mass by Roman Catholics, which is similar to Anglican Holy Eucharist, and called the Divine Liturgy by many groups of Orthodox Christians. Initially, it is theorized that the Apostles obeyed the command "do this in memory of me", said during the Last Supper, and performed the liturgy in the houses of Christians. Besides mimicking the action of Jesus, using the bread and wine, and saying his words (known as the words of the institution), the rest of the ...

Chalcedonian Creed: Encyclopedia II - Unitarianism - Impact and opposition

The adoption of unitarian belief almost always entails severance of identification with Christianity as it is understood by the Nicene-Chalcedonian churches (Orthodox, Catholic, and most Protestants). Unitarianism is outside of the fellowship of these traditions. It has a tradition of its own, parallel to trinitarianism. Catholics, Orthodox and Protestants of various stripes insist on trinitarian belief as an essential of Christianity, and basic to a group's conti ...
