    Councils
    Timeline
    1 COUNCIL OF JERUSALEM-50 AD
    Judaic Christians insisted that
    gentile Christians in Antioch should
    be circumcised, and follow mosaic
    laws. The council decided that
    gentile Christians did not have to
    follow mosaic law such as diet,

    2
    ritual, and circumcision.

    FIRST COUNCIL OF NICAEA-325 AD


    An Egyptian priest named Arius
    popularized his teaching that Jesus
    was a creature of God and not a
    God himself. The council
    condemned him and established the
    Nicene Creed and several disciple
    canons that established the method
    for properly dating Easter. 3 FIRST COUNCIL OF
    CONSTANTINOPLE-381 AD
    Theodosius I the Great called the
    council out of concern for
    Macedonianism, which denied the
    divinity of the Holy Spirit. The council
    condemned the heresy and added
    words to the Nicene Creed which

    4
    affirmed the Holy Spirit’s divinity.
    COUNCIL OF EPHESUS-
    431 AD
    The council was called after Nestorius,
    the Patriarch of Constantinople,
    claimed Mary was not the mother of
    God but the mother of Christ. The
    council condemned Nestorious’ beliefs

    5
    and exiled him for his heresy.
    COUNCIL OF CHALCEDON-451
    A man named Eutyches denied the human
    nature of Jesus and taught that Jesus only
    had a divine nature. This inspired Pope St.
    Leo to write his book, Tome. After reading
    the book, the Patriarch of Constantinople
    excommunicated Eutyches and a council
    was called, praising Tome and declaring
    Jesus one Divine Person with a human and

    SECOND COUNCIL OF 6 divine nature.

    CONSTANTINOPLE-553
    Violence between Monophysites and
    Orthodox Christians erupted because the
    Monophysites criticized the writing of three
    dead theologians who may have been friends
    with Nestorius. Justinian made an edict
    condemning the theologians to pacify the
    Monophysites, however, Western bishops
    disagreed and protested. The council was
    called and condemned the theologians while
    reiterating the teachings of Ephesus and
    Chanceldon.

    Nicholas I the Great after Nicholas
    refused to recognize Photius’
    episcopacy, causing a schism. The
    council was called to end the schism
    and decided to banish Photius, bringing
    unity to the church.
