I greatly appreciate you immediately dispelling the myth of how the Bible was codified at the council.

Interesting information about the Nicene Creed. I would LOVE to hear what you have to say without distracting loud noise in the background. 👍👏🙏❤️.

The term "It doesn't make an iota's worth of difference" comes from the Arian/Trinitarian controversy. Trinitarians believe that God the Son was of the same nature as the God the Father. Arians believed that God the Son was of "like nature" with God the Father. The Greek word for "same nature" is "homousious" and the word for "like nature" was "homoiusious." The only difference was the letter "i" - in Greek, "iota." Many in society didn't see the difference.

well presented excellent The background instrumental is distracting and makes your script challenged by making some of your facts difficult to hear.

Love your quality content. Just lower down the background music a bit, please. It's quite distracting.

Independent board game publisher Hollandspiele just put out a new game called Nicaea about this very topic! It does a great job modeling the political opportunism at the heart if the First Nicene Council's theological debates. Worth noting that the production value may not be what you'd expect from a game at its price point, but it's worth it for the gameplay and to support a great independent publisher.

This was surprisingly well researched and nuanced

I’m a biblical scholar and I was waiting for something much much worse than this but it is generally quite well seen and delivered

[Vaquero]

I appreciate that you are capable of discussing the historicity of the Christian church(es) without looking down your nose at the faith.

Been studying this council since I was 16, always found it interesting. I do have my own opinions and beliefs on what the council is responsible for with the ancient Egyptians but I’ll be mindful/respectful to peoples belief.

I feel like as Christians we should be teaching more of this

[FòShōHEALth]

Thank You for this. I have often heard the idea that the Council of Nicaea deternmined what Books would become Canon so this is insightful. On the flip side the "music" of this video is horrible, too loud, and distracting (my opinion). Still, I Appreciate you Clarifying this topic

[LeddingtonGuitars]

Great info, well presented... the soundtrack is maddening though.

[angelasieg]

I have recited the Nicean Creed so many times in my life and never before thought about its history fascinating

Modern version of Arianism: Jehovah's Witnesses.

[jovanweismiller]

I was pleasantly surprised! An even-handed video on a touchy subject.

[kosamsani]

When Jesus had been baptized, he immediately rose from the water and a voice was heard from the heavens, which said: "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. " Who is who? God speaks from heaven to God standing on the ground? Mikael Lyngvig.

What Nicaea did not finish was accomplished at Chalcedon.

Correction on Easter. They didn't change the date of Easter. They changed the celebration of the Resurrection from occurring at Passover to occurring at Easter. Easter was already a Roman holiday to celebrate the goddess of fertility Ishtar, this is why its associated with bunnies. What they changed was that it would be the celebration of the resurrection instead of Ishtar, and instead of celebrating that at Passover

[musicminds]

The video is good and informative, but the background music kills it for me. You’ve got hyped up music that sounds like it’s primed for a sports package video, not a historical mini documentary. Completely takes one out of the video

You know what I love in videos about history and important events? Loud guitar music and some dude standing in a room, looking straight at me like I wore a thong to the gym.
