Church councils

[Faithhopeandcharity]

This site insists on adherence to and belief in the nicene creed and council:

What about the other councils of the church?

Such as the Council Of Ephesus – 431 A.D.

If anyone does not confess that Emmanuel is God in truth, and therefore that the holy virgin is the mother of God (for she bore in a fleshly way the Word of God become flesh) let him be anathema.

And

Perpetual Virginity of Mary!

Mary conceived "without any detriment to her virginity, which remained inviolate even after his birth" (apostolic Council of the Lateran, 649) with the jurisdictional authority of Peter and the apostles in holy council! Matt 16:18 18:18 Jn 20:21-23 eph 2:20 bound on earth bound in heaven!

And

The two councils of all Trent and the 1st Vatican council???
Etc.

Mark,

1. NO, this site does not "insist on adherence" to ANY council of ANY church. It simply says that for certain forums, adherence to ONE STATEMENT of ONE ECUMENICAL Council is required.... not anything else from that Council or any other.

2. The Lateran Council of 649 are NOT one of the 7 Ecumenical Councils. The Council of Ephesus did NOT address whether Mary remained a virgin or not - didn't even discuss that topic much less definitively and officially rule on it. See Quick Facts About The 7 Ecumenical Councils


There's already threads on the Perpetual Virginity of Mary.

When I Registered the site required my acceptance of nicea???

it’s ok I believe all the valid councils up to and including the 1st Vatican council

And
There is only one true church founded by Christ on Peter and the apostles and their successors, Matt 16:18 & 18:18 eph 2:20 it is the new covenant body of Christ!
One fold / one church Jn 10:16
the household of faith! Gal 6:10
Christ and his church are one acts 9:4
Also an attack on the church is an attack on Christ acts 9:4
Pillar and ground of truth! 1 Tim 3:15

The one true founded by Christ on Peter and the apostles Matt 16:18-19 18:18 prevails until his return without error Jn 16:13 with the same mission power and authority as Christ! Jn 20:21-23

All others are sects built on the tradition of men having ZERO authority from Christ!

No.

What was required is that if you desire to post IN CERTAIN SUBFORUMS, you must adhere to the NICENE CREED, which is one statement of that Council, a statement modified and extended beyond that Council.


The rest of your post is just irrelevant and entirely baseless claims of your individual church. IF you want to discuss the claims of the RCC, LDS and some others that Jesus founded such, we can do that (actually, those threads already exist here) but that's entirely irrlevant to any requirement of this website.

How can there be more than one true church founded by Christ on Peter and the apostles?
Only Christ has authority to found a church and since He founded the church the church must be irreformable just as truth is revealed by God and therefore is immutable

Can we be be a christ and not believe in the divinity of Christ and the trinity?

since they are Christian doctrines
