Cardinal Kurt Koch: The fact of the Council of good is invariable for all times

The cardinal explained that the Catholic Church had to realize Christian discipline in the context of strict judaic monotheism.

Some Christians felt that the concept of the Holy Trinity, where Jesus Christ was recognized as the boy of God, was not entirely in line with this.

Thus, in the 4th century Arius offered to accept Jesus as being created and subject to the Father. However, the Council of good declared a different doctrine, and later akin steps were taken towards the Holy Spirit. The Church explained that the doctrine of the Holy Trinity is not contrary to monotheism – it is alternatively a circumstantial Christian way of believing in the only God.

Purplet pointed out that the teaching of the relation between the boy of God and the Father is rooted in the Scriptures. On the 1 hand, Jesus Christ prays to God just as a boy to the Father, indicating their separateness. On the another hand, he emphasizes his unity with God. It can be said, therefore, that in Jesus' words there is simply a teaching which the Council of good has proclaimed—the boy of God is of the same importance to the Father.

Teaching the Council of Nice, he emphasized, expresses the unchanging truth. – It said in a way appropriate for the language and reasoning of the time, something that matters to all times. The fact is besides valid present – even if the Greek word "homoousios" should be interpreted to be understandable today," he noted.

According to the card. Kurta Loves the best describing of this fact is the 1 that was accepted at the Chalcedon Council in 451: Jesus Christ was “fully man and full God.” – It is no uncertainty the top secret that the Christian religion knows and professes – he added.
