Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Concise History of the Origin, Progress and Effects of the Papal Supremacy: With Observations on the Alterations Made in It The Emperors had a Supremacy in the Christian Church ´till the close of the Eleventh Century. As the papal supremacy has been for some time a subject of general discussion I resolved to trace its origin, progress and effects on society; and in these pages I lay before the public the result of my investigation. When the Emperor Constantine the Great embraced Christianity, and determined to make it the religion of the state, he convened a general council, consisting of a numerous assembly of bishops, at Nice, in Bythinia, in the year 325, and ordered them to frame a creed, containing its leading tenets, for the purpose of instructing the people who might not have leisure, opportunity, or learning, to acquire a knowledge of them, by perusing the Holy Scripture; and that which they composed, called the Nicene creed, was for many centuries the standard of the christian faith.
