"The Church cannot dismiss or disengage from the world." In this volume, Rev. Daniel Broaddus examines the ancient Council of Nicaea, one of "the greatest temporal triumphs of the Church in history." From a persecuted and underground movement to one acclaimed across the entire ancient Roman empire, the Church at the Council of Nicaea became a world power. Not only political power, however, but the power of the true Gospel and its strength against heresies and the vain philosophies of the world, no less than the very Word of God, were at stake and in contention at the council. Rev. Broaddus, in this short book, takes us through the major people involved, the major issues discussed, and the important implications for us today, of this great and momentous event in the history of the Church.
