Council of Nicaea

A House Divided

1700 years ago in 325 AD Constantine, the Emperor of the Roman Empire, summoned the ‘Christian’ religious leaders to the city of Nicaea. There were two main drivers for this first ever ‘ecumenical council.’ Most well known was the aim to resolve divisions between Christians regarding beliefs and practices. But for Constantine, the primary purpose was political. Minimizing the religious differences would bring a more ‘united’ empire, a politically advantageous goal.

“…Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand: And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how then shall his kingdom stand?”

Matthew 12:25-26

Is everyone Blind?

When it comes to bribery, politicians or the mob are those who most likely to come to mind. But supervisors at any level in any organization, even religious leaders or judges, can be and have been influenced by bribery. For a nation that claims to be ‘one nation under God’ the prevalence of bribery blatantly contradicts the simple instruction from God against bribery. In this article we are going to look at examples of bribery becoming institutionalized into the ‘American Way.’ A nation cannot claim to follow God, yet at the same time, turn away from His Instructions. God is fully aware of what is going on, and we can look to His Word to find out what He is going to do about it.

“Swear to me”

/ By / Biblical Light, News

Out with the old and in with the new! Prince Charles will be crowned the new King of England on Saturday with all the traditions expected from the British Monarchy. He has made his mark already with changes including a “slimmed down” monarchy and his much publicized ‘inclusive’ approach to the role.

One tradition scrapped from the coronation is the loyalty oath taken individually by dukes and lords. This ‘Homage of the Peers’ is said to have taken a whole hour during Elizabeth’s coronation as each lord bent the knee before her and swore to be her loyal subject. Charles decided it would be much more ‘inclusive’ to instead ask the entire Commonwealth to ‘swear to me’ through an ‘homage of the people’, a move that has not gone over well in the UK.

The Coronation, at its heart, is a religious ceremony where Charles ascends to lead the people of the United Kingdom and become the ‘Supreme Governor’ of the Church of England. The church obviously believes it is OK to incorporate oaths in the ceremony, but how does this fit with God’s Word?

Abraham, Our Forefather

/ By / Historical, Who's Who

As a child you may have sung the song “Father Abraham” about Abraham’s many sons. Abraham is recognized as a forefather in Christian, Jewish and Muslim teachings. Christian and Jews trace their lineage through Isaac, while Muslims trace their origins through Ishmael , the two most well-known sons of Abraham.

While a majority of the population falls under one of the three ‘Abrahamic’ religions, few people consider what an amazing person Abraham was! So called ‘Christian’s’ ask themselves ‘What would Jesus do?’, but you should also ask ‘What would Abraham do?’ as Jesus himself suggested!

“They (Jews/Pharisees) answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus said to them, ‘If you were Abraham’s children, you would do the works of Abraham.’”

John 8:39

So, what did Abraham do?! This article introduces you to Abraham, our forefather.

The Passover Moon

/ By / Biblical Light, Endtimes

On April 5th, 2023 people around the world will remember the Passover. In the time of Moses, God’s wrath passed over the Israelites but not their oppressors the Egyptians. This led to the exodus out of Egypt. One aspect of the timing of Passover is that it coincides with a full moon! God said there will be signs or indications in the moon. With that, we look to the indications in the moon relating to the very first Passover and the next one to come in God’s time, not next week.

“And God said, Let there be lights in the Firmament of the Heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years.”

Genesis 1:14
