Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Constantine and the Council of Nicaea plunges students into the theological debates confronting early Christian church leaders. Emperor Constantine has sanctioned Christianity as a legitimate religion within the Roman Empire but discovers that Christians do not agree on fundamental aspects of their beliefs. Some have resorted to violence, battling over which group has the correct theology. Constantine has invited all of the bishops of the church to attend a great church council to be held in Nicaea, hoping to settle these problems and others. The first order of business is to agree on a core theology of the church to which Christians must subscribe if they are to hold to the "true faith." Some will attempt to use the creed to exclude their enemies from the church. If they succeed, Constantine may fail to achieve his goal of unity in both empire and church. The outcome of this conference will shape the future of Christianity for millennia. Free supplementary materials for this textbook are available at the Reacting to the Past website.

Book Description
Excerpt from Church History to the Council of Nicæa: A. D. 325 This desire has been quickened by signs of the times at home and abroad. Many things seem to show that the Church ought to be preparing herself to live, as it were, again in the ante-nicene age. The predictions also of sacred Prophecy, which has foretold that the Opposition, with which the Church had to contend in those earlier times after the first Advent of Christ, will reproduce itself, with more intensity, in the latter days, before His Second Coming, may now be deemed to be in course of fulfilment. In some countries, the Christian Church is sepa rated from the State, as it was in the first three centuries of the Christian era. In other parts of the world, the temporal Power is withdrawing its support from the Church; and in others, it is arraying itself in antagonism to it.

Book Description
Excerpt from Church History to the Council of Nicæa: A. D. 325 It has long been the Author's wish to offer to the rising generation a view of the History, Doctrine, and Discipline of the Christian Church from the Day of Pentecost to the Council of Nicæa. This desire has been quickened by signs of the times at home and abroad. Many things seem to show that the Church ought to be preparing herself to live, as it were, again in the Ante-Nicene age. The predictions also of sacred Prophecy, which has foretold that the opposition, with which the Church had to contend in those earlier times after the first Advent of Christ, will reproduce itself, with more intensity, in the latter days, before His Second Coming, may now be deemed to be in course of fulfilment. In some countries, the Christian Church is separated from the State, as it was in the first three centuries of the Christian era. In other parts of the world, the temporal Power is withdrawing its support from the Church; and in others, it is arraying itself in antagonism to it. These two latter cases differ widely from the former. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
