∙ 12y ago
We believe in one God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible. And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, Very God of Very God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father by whom all things were made; who for us men, and for our salvation, came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary, and was made man, and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate. He suffered and was buried, and the third day he rose again according to the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of the Father. And he shall come again with glory to judge both the quick and the dead, whose kingdom shall have no end. And we believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of Life, who proceedeth from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified, who spoke by the prophets. And we believe one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins. And we look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Why was there a division between the orthodox and Roman Catholic Church over the nicene creed?
This has to do with a rather complex issue regarding the nature of the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) and particularly the Spirit's place within it. The Orthodox church felt that the description of the Trinity in the revised Nicene Creed was incorrect. Interestingly, they had no problems with the first revision of the Nicene Creed but disagreed with the second revision issued some 60 years later. The problem was that this revision added words to indicate that the Holy Spirit proceeds/is generated by both the Father and the Son, and to Orthodox thought this diminished the place of the Father by making the Son "too much" the Father's equal.
What emperor made Christianity official?
Co-emperors Theodosius I and Gratian issued the Edict of Thessalonica in 380. This made the Nicene Creed (a particular interpretation of the trinity) which was endorsed by mainstream Christianity (Latin or Western Christianity and Greek or Eastern Christianity) the sole legitimate religion of the Roman Empire. The purpose of the edict was to ban dissident Christian doctrines which disputed the Nicene Creed and had alternative interpretations of the trinity. These were branded as heretic. Theodosius I started persecuting them soon afterwards. The main target was Arian Christianity, which the main dissident Christian doctrine and was popular around the empire.The Latin/Western Church and the Greek/Eastern Church were the main church of the western and eastern parts of the empire respectively. They deifned themselves as two branches of one church which was called Catholic Church. The word catholic means all embracing, universal. In other words, these two churches considered themselves as two branches of the Nicene Creed, which they wanted to be the universal creed of Chisitanity , in opposition to the dissident Chisitan creeds. Later there was a schism between these two churches and they came to be called Chatolic Chush and Orthodox Curch.
Why Roman Catholic Church is not Christian?
Catholic AnswerThe Catholic Church is Christian, as a matter of fact, it is the only true Christian Church: Our Blessed Lord only founded ONE Church, and guaranteed It and send the Holy Spirit to guide It until the end of the world. Therefore there is only one Christian Church and it is the Catholic Church on earth. All other sects and religions were formed by men centuries later and are Christian only insofar as they have a valid baptism and believe in the Nicene Creed in its traditional interpretation; in other words, Christians are Christians only insofar as they are Catholics. All other "Christians" are only using the word, and are not so in fact. Please note that Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the Catholic Church.

Why do they always give a Catholic view to Christian questions Christian means Christ like not Catholic?
.Catholic AnswerCatholic means Christian, Our Blessed Lord established the Catholic Church two thousand years ago, if you are asking why you ask a Christian question and are not getting a protestant answer, then you need to ask a protestant question. In your question you say Christian means Christ not Catholic. This is a mistake. Our Blessed Lord only founded one Church (His words, not mine) and guaranteed it until the end of the world. It is His Mystical Body, and He set St. Peter as its first Vicar, and guaranteed him and his successors, that the gates of hell would not prevail against it. He then set the Holy Spirit to guide it into all truth. Christian means that you are following Christ, in other words, Christian means that you are a member of the Catholic Church. People outside the visible Church may be Christians to the extent that they are validly baptized and believe in the Nicene Creed in its traditional interpretation, but only then. To be a protestant is not necessarily a Christian. It is to be a follower of heretics who left the Catholic Church in the sixteenth century and formed their own outside of the One Church which Our Blessed Savior founded.
What are the differences between Christianity and protestant?
Christians are Protestants.Roman Catholic AnswerThat is a very interesting question that can not be answered for the simple reason that different people define those words differently. Catholics say that anyone who is validly baptised and professes the Nicene Creed in its traditional interpretration is a Christian. At this point in time, that would exclude the vast majority of protestants. Protestants, on the other hand, use the word "Christian" to exclude Catholics, which rather boggles the mind, as there were no other Christians than Catholics for most of the centuries between us and Biblical times.
