Council of Nicaea Anniversary

2025 is the 1700th anniversary of the First Council of Nicaea

.

The Council of Nicaea, also known as the First Council of Nicaea, was the first ecumenical council in Christian history. Convened in 325 AD by Emperor Constantine, it addressed the Arian controversy, which questioned the divinity of Jesus. The council resulted in the formulation of the Nicene Creed, a statement of faith that affirmed the divinity of Jesus and the Trinity, and condemned Arianism.
