Our modern concept of monotheism is defined as the belief in one God, but the ancients did not articulate their views as belief, what they did, their ritual acts were more important. Jews acknowledged the existence of other powers - the Jewish 'heaven' was populated with gradients of divinity; archangels, angels, cherubim, and seraphim - but they w...
Paul, a Jewish Pharisee writing in the 50s-60s CE, also had a vision of Jesus in heaven. A voice told him to be the apostle to the Gentiles (non-Jews), and he created communities of believers throughout the Eastern Roman Empire. But as Paul had said, the suffering and death on a cross of God’s messiah was "a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness ...
By the time the gospels were written (beginning with Mark c. 70 CE), the worship of Jesus was reflected in the titles and actions of his followers. "Son of God", a term that had been applied to the Prophets, was literally understood. In Matthew’s nativity, the reference to Emmanuel ("God is with us") reflects the divinity in Mary’s child.

The concept of the Trinity could have remained an intellectual endeavor only, but a controversy emerged in the city of Alexandria that spilled over into other...

The Nicene Creed formalized one system of belief that was promoted through the power of the emperor (and his legions). As such, any dissent from the Creed was now tre...
The First Council of Constantinople of 381 CE was called by Emperor Theodosius I (r. 379-395 CE) to unify the Eastern and Western Churches after Constantinople had elected an Arian bishop. At the same time, it was recognized that the Council of Nicaea did not clarify the role of the holy spirit. The Council of Constantinople condemned all forms of ...
In the 6th century, some churches added a clause to the description of the Holy Spirit: "The Lord and giver of life who proceeds from the Father, and through the Son" (Latin: filioque). Several of the Eastern churches claimed that this diminished the power of the Spirit. Ultimately, the debate over this clause (and other matters) brought about the ...
