The Important Councils of the Church Chapter 8 – Lesson 4 The Important Councils of the Church

Chapter 8 Heresy – A belief or collection of beliefs that rejects one or more of the revealed truths of the faith. An example of a heretic belief is rejecting the belief that Mary gave birth to Jesus.

Chapter 8 The Council of Jerusalem – This council met in 49 AD and ruled that a gentile did not have to become Jewish before becoming a Christian. They did keep marriage laws and the 10 Commandments, but did not have to follow the Jewish laws of circumcision for men or dietary laws.

Chapter 8 The Council of Nicaea – This first ecumenical council met in 325, in what is now present day Turkey. Athanasius dispelled the heretic belief of Aruis (the Arians) and it was resolved that Jesus had to be fully human and fully divine. The Council of Constantinople – This council met in 381 in modern day Istanbul. It was decided that the Blessed Trinity is central to our faith and that the Holy Spirit is fully divine.

Chapter 8 The Council of Ephesus – This council met in 431 in Turkey and reaffirmed that Mary gave birth to Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and declared that Mary can be called “Mother of God.” The Council of Chalcedon - This council met in 451 and is considered the greatest of the first four ecumenical councils. This council affirmed the teaching of Pope Leo the Great that Jesus was one person with two natures – divine and human.
