This week we continue the "Through Nicaea" series where we will survey the Christian Creed formulated in 381. Before examining the creed line by line, however, we will look over the historical context surrounding the creed. In episode four we briefly examine the Arian Controversy, the council of 325, and the aftermath. Notes are available for patrons at patreon.com/christisthecure.
