Christianity is a religion adopted in 325 by Council of Nicaea? read below and deny it by proof if possible!?

Question

Jesus Christ pbuh was regarded as an exalted man in the first centuries but later Christian started believing divinity of Christ and only this idea prevailed and original idea was banned as heresy by Roman authorities and Councils of Nicaea held in 325.
This first ecumenical council was convened by Constantine I, emperor of Rome, to settle the Arian dispute concerning the nature of Jesus Christ. Of the 1,800 bishops in the Roman Empire, 318 attended the council. The Nicene Creed, which defined the Son as consubstantial with the Father, was adopted as the official position of the Church regarding the divinity of Christ.
And in the Second Council of Nicaea held in 787 and convened by Irene, empress of the East, and it was attended by 350 bishops, most of whom were Byzantine. In spite of strong objections by the iconoclasts, the council validated the veneration of images and ordered their restoration in churches throughout the Roman Empire.

Answer 1

The Nicean Council did indeed set up Christianity as the official religion of the Roman/Byzantine Empire, but early Christians had different ideas of the nature of Christ before then. The Gnostic Sects, the writings of whom date from the centuries before Nicea, clearly see Christ as a supernatural/divine being. So do the texts which make up the New Testament - the Gospels, Acts, the Epistles, all of which are pre Nicean. The whole point of the Nicean Council was to decide what the Church's official line on the controversies of the Christian Mysteries were. The true nature of Christ will always be argued about - was he a man, was he a God, was he both a man AND a God etc -for the very reason that it is central to what the Christian message is.

So the Council of Nicea was the beginning of formalised Christianity as we know it, but it wasn't the beginning of Christianity. There were many Christianities before it and all of them believed that Christ had a Divine aspect.

Answer 2

You are redefining the issue, which is what deceivers do. The council made it legal for Christians to do what they had been doing for over 200 years: gathering together on Sundays for communal worship and prayers. The "rest" aspect was voluntary. The sabbath of the old covenant was only about rest, and not communal worship. You are also using this as a straw-man argument; another method employed by deceivers. What a shame you have to resort to such measures in order to try and make the case your religion, or any other religion is the right one. It actually proves your religion to be false, seeing as you use the methods of deception in an attempt to prove something true. The true religion would be based in truth, and rely on truth. .

Answer 3

Pick any book of the New Testament and I will show you a scripture in it affirming the divinity of Christ.

Besides there are manuscripts and church fathers prior to 325 that affirm the divinity of Christ.

Just for instance in 112 the Bishop of Antioch, Ignatius, declared, “There is one physician, fleshly and spiritual, begotten and unbegotten, God in man, true life in death, both of Mary and of God, first passible then impassible, Jesus Christ our Lord"

Besides, if you want to say "not all Christians recognized Christ as God" then I could just as easily reply, "Not all Arabs recognized Muhammad as a prophet". Why would God require Muhammad to go to war? If Muhammad was truth, then his truth should have been spread without the need of the sword.

Answer 4

This is too easy quit listening to Muslims and begin to seek the truth. The first scriptures God gave to man...The first book of Moses refers to man's creation his fall and his salvation.
Abraham foretold of the coming of the lamb of God, Isaiah told that the Messiah would atone for sin. The DSS has the book of Isaiah intact form 250 BC This is the same book of Isaiah Christ himself refered to Isaiah 53 as the prophesiesshe must fufill... The tirnity and the atonment are taught in the first scriptures God gave to us when he spoke to Moses, Jesus agreed with them. The council of Nicea was several hundred years before Muhamamd and The Qu'ran teaches you should agree with this Gospel and Torah...The problem you are having is you are following a man who did not know God or understand God's word.

Answer 5

Here you go:
Hebrews 1
6 And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says,
"Let all God's angels worship him." 7 In speaking of the angels he says,
"He makes his angels winds,
his servants flames of fire." 8 But about the Son he says,
"Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever,
and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom.

And here:
Zechariah 14
2 I will gather all the nations to Jerusalem to fight against it; the city will be captured, the houses ransacked, and the women raped. Half of the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be taken from the city.

3 Then the LORD will go out and fight against those nations, as he fights in the day of battle. 4 On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half of the mountain moving north and half moving south.

And here:
Zechariah 14
12 This is the plague with which the LORD will strike all the nations that fought against Jerusalem: Their flesh will rot while they are still standing on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths.

Islam will perish with those who attack Jerusalem..

Answer 7

Hi!

Why would someone deny the history around the institutionalisation of Christianity. Not sure I get your point.

Good wishes.

Answer 8

Why would anyone deny the apostasy of Christianity? No Apostasy no point for a reformation. And more importantly there would be no Restoration.

I will not deny they had the meetings and made those desition but being christian is about following Jesus and letting him into your life what they decided all that time ago does not change my faith in Jesus/ God.
